I had some of those headphones like hat guy has. They were uncomfortable. Strange design.
Damn I miss LAN parties. Ultimately it was World of Warcraft that killed them in my social circles.

On the shelf next door is still the box with the hundreds of coax ethernet cables, the T-connectors, and 50 Ohm terminators from the LAN parties in the 90s. Before they were called "LAN parties" and used for gaming.

Can you imagine how bad his neck must hurt by the end of the night? They could have at least spared another loop to keep his forehead supported

Oh, give him a break it's probably a dual scan passive. He's playing Doom through a gray smeary mess. But you didn't have to log a CRT to the basement... So there is that

First game that caused me to accidentally stay up until the sun rose (multiple times).

We played the hell out of q3 starting with beta because it ran on Linux, macOS classic and windows, and my crew had all those. Riva tnt, g3 tower, amd k6-2, 10-base-T hub.

I remember making a serial cable so my friend and I could play command and conquer against each other. Good times.

Oh yes! We had those, too (as my friend had no networking card), and playing with the red and blue CDs was fun! This must have been somewhere '95 or '96.

Oh man, I remember after we got network cards trying to make an Ethernet cable out of a bunch of old power cords. The error rate was through the roof but it actually worked for like an hour. We eventually walked to the local RadioShack and bit the bullet on buying a cable

The TNT was a beast! I ran it on a k6-2 also. Unfortunately it crapped out and I replaced it with an MX400 which I still have (I have a problem). We all played with a myriad of platforms. One guy was on a friggin' Alpha that he warmed his feet with under his desk. We also played Quake but for some reason we were obsessed with the silliness of UT. MMMMM MONSTER KILLL
