Are lengthy "post your photo" threads discriminatory |
|
Against people with dial-up internet?

But even then, it still tends to lag when it gets long. So I can imagine how it is for the people with dial-up.

3. Seriously, I've forgotten how long dial-up took to load... |
|
About two weeks ago I was at my sisters house and my brother-in-law's mother wanted to see some of those abandoned amusement park pics I took...It took almost a half an hour for all the pics to load...
Real frustrating...

4. Wow, people still use dial-up? |
|
I do't think I could retain my sanity with dial-up these days.

6. You can always open the thread, |
|
go into the kitchen and get a beer, read a book while you're drinking the beer, than go back to look at the thread.
That's what I used to do in the dialup days.
