Setting up age verification for my BBS
It's simple: if you know what a BBS is and manage to connect to it, you're clearly over 18.

@foone@digipres.club i knew what a BBS was at the ripe age of 12… but you’re not a cop now, are you?

@foone In wish I could see this as a challenge, but I am way above 18.
If I manage to teach someone under 18 to connect, does that count?

@foone Press ESC twice to continue...
Also, if your're old enough for the BBS thing, you probably also need to schedule a colonoscopy.

@foone (I was 12 when I got in trouble for connecting to a BBS from a school computer... in the early 90s. In fairness to "kids these days", they get up to some pretty impressive stuff. But I don't think they'd care much about BBS tech - at least not until they need to.)

@domi I'm not, never have been, never will be.
But when were you 12? I'm gonna take a guess that it wasn't super recent.
I definitely new how to connect to a BBS when I was 12, but that's because I was 12 in 1996, when BBSes were still somewhat of a thing.
In 2026? Why would a kid waste their time knowing this?

@foone@digipres.club i’m '02, so 2014? i remember logging onto BBSes through HyperTerminal on win95 and a null modem cable connected to a linux box running some utility that proxied telnet to a serial port… it took me a couple more years before I figured out how to configure SLIP/PPP
(i was a Weird kid for that timeframe, i’m fully aware)
