How did you get your copy of Mastodon?
-
@Edent I hacked into the mainframe and now I'm in.

@Edent Typed in the basic source code from a magazine by hand.

@Edent I just used X-copy to clone the floppy some random dude brought to the last demoparty I was at, obviously.
Plus, it's got a killer intro by that awesome German cracking crew!!! -

@Edent I swiped up, down, left, right, left, right and pressed the two side buttons and it installed for free.
-
@Edent Went to public library and asked to see their shareware collection. Copied onto multiple floppies.
-
@Edent None of the above. John Mastodon himself toggled in an early version directly on the console. Thankfully I wrote down the settings. I’ve had to port it to x86 since I don’t have the PDP-11 anymore.

@gkemp as was foretold in prophesy.

@Edent I found it in the woods next to the train tracks when I was looking for empties and old glass transformer insulators.

@Edent I downloaded it onto a stack of floppies in the local cybercafé.
Disk 8 didn't work.
-
@datarama why is it always disk 8!?!?

@Edent Once I was walking down the 5th Avenue and noticed a white USB flashdisk on the concrete. “Use me” was written on it.

@Edent Actually, I entered the code by hand from the latest issue of the Family Computing magazine. Took a while, but was totally worth it.

@Edent I fed all 10,000 baked clay tablet into the 3d scanner. A multi-media LLM ORD'd the cuneiform and reassembled all the files. Except the one I dropped, which is now a pile of dust, but I hope to reverse the process and recover the missing code.

@Edent We have this local store where you can rent a social network for a day. Went there after school, ripped Mastodon at home (my Plextor makes short work of the copy protection) and brought it back the next afternoon. No question asked why you only need it for day.

@dbenzhuser you're the reason Blockbuster no longer exists.

@Edent I don’t have internet at home so I give my friend a list of toots and then come with my hard drive and copy them off of his computer. We do this like every other week. More time to hang out, too. About once every 3 month we gather with all our friends and share the best toots.
