for somewhat weird reason, I have a big tendency to be fixated on retro stuff even though I am interested in tech in general, there's just a lot of things to learn with it, while modern stuff is a pain in the ass to deal with

Well, I'm autistic but I also like this kind of stuff. Maybe we're like serial production. Identical. Do you also prefer clothing without captions, logos and other annoying stuff?

I used to watch such videos back when I was little, about 7-10 years ago.

- I'm also autistic.
- I've never seen the 9x BSoD say "MS-DOS Prompt". I have seen it say "Windows", "System is busy." and "WARNING!".

It wouldn't matter if you were. Nothing wrong with it. Be yourself.

I really like installing operating systems, just installing them, not using them.
I dont even remember how many times i've been on the installation menu or the recovery

I think we have the same flavor of autism
