apparently all this software must have been marketed in the same places because this one episode of computer chronicles covers like half the games in my elementary school computer lab ~2000 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fb9mZXE9lK8&t=410s

our grade school computer lab had the pizza box macs all networked together, and I now think it was sharing a network drive with a single installation of kid pix. we all used it at the same time, but I figured out in like 3rd grade if you edited a stamp that another kid was editing, if you saved it right before they did, it would crash their copy of kid pix. so we all started trying to crash other kids when they weren't expecting it

imgur did a hilarious bad ad thing at one point though they seem to have rolled it back some i'm using postimages for now but i can't see how sustainable it is since there's zero way for them to make any cash on it

Screen shots+quick annotate in macos and win10 are equally simple and good. I'm going to keep RDPing into my old XPS laptop to use paint. yospos.
