It’s useless without internet

I still remember when I purchased my first computer back in the good year 2000. I had tons of games, programs and media on the computer that I spent hours using. All that was before the internet. Now my internet WiFi disconnected for few minutes only. I was trying to find something to do on my tablet until internet is back. But there was nothing really. All the games and apps require internet connection. So I just put my tablet on the side. It’s all useless without the internet. Maybe I should install some offline games so I can kill time when internet goes off again.

I don't play games. I keep my mobile aside when there is no internet connection. Life is boring when have no internet. I wonder how we used to live without it in the past.

@Madshadi even I too didn't know much about it and never thought that we will be so much dependent on it in future.

I wonder too. When internet was first introduced to my place it wasn’t even that popular for few years.

You should install offline games so you will be busy. I can't live without internet connection.

You are wasting time with this game playing thing, people now use time to earn money ; internet is a boon for that too.

@Madshadi Free time, I like to make a cash back out of it; now I think I have to develop a game for this.

I used to be a hardcore gamer before. Now as I grow older my interest for video games are not the same.

The same thing happened to me recently. The only thing that I could find to do was write on the notepad, but that was it. Thank goodness we have our phones and tablets.

My parents bought a computer for us back in gosh very early 90s. We were one of the only kids in school that had one. I found things to enjoy on it for the month or so before we got the internet. I loved looking through Encarta which was basically an encyclopedia. But yep now there’s really not much point in a computer without internet.

We already had the Internet in year 2000, we did not had a router, but a modem to connect. We had our first router and Internet connection in 1995, when we still lived in France. I bought my first computer in 1979.

I first used the internet in 2002 or something like that. I used to go to internet coffee shops and university at first. I think it was only in 2004 that I connected to internet from home.
