Pre-torrenting.

Was it torrenting or just P2P file sharing? Also you might have rose colored glasses about how good it was.

It was simply peer to peer file sharing rather than torrenting. Torrenting allows you to collect different parts of the file from different people. Lime Wire just depending on a stable connection between you and the host machine.

It was also full of fake shit and viruses. I remember spending hours getting rid of “Gator” a couple of times as a stupid college student.

Yeah it was so good that every download was a gamble if you were getting the song you wanted or uncensored war footage and cp

Limewire was around before Brahm Cohen created Bit Torrent.

P2P, not torrent. Torrent is P2P but not all P2P is torrenting.

Idk man if I saw the exact same pixels from an “AI Art” in 2010s, I would frame some of them.

The only thing that makes them feel less artsy is knowing there’s no intent of meaning behind the image.

But that’s also true for some human made art, sometimes the artist’s intention is to make the image have meaning only through the viewers.

I’m pretty sure I would have an AI Art printed and framed in my home when they become not so somehow obviously “AI”.
