This thread is all about how you ended up at TOTSE in the first place, and what you did to get here. Where were you posting before here?
For me, I started out my internet life at rotteneggs (lol), discovered most of the internet there when posting on the forums including TOTSE. I was "matured" online there, as well. I then found /b/, followed by more RE, and then Youn00b. I was referred to SOOTS (some kind of tM rip-off), followed by another tM, and finally started posting over here.

I was an avid PC gamer back then and went hardcore on posting stuff.
Then I moved on to Engadget and that was pretty much the entire internet to me and some DIY forums.
After a while I got bored and just decided to search for "making a bomb." It was a big no-no back then with all the hype about the FBI busting your ass for searching terrorist related material and CP.
lmfao online racism
It's not just online. You have no idea the bullshit Ive had to put up with due to my beliefs.
Then stop believing in bullshit.
I originally found totse.com by googling "how to get free analog cable tv". The textfiles covered this topic with varying accuracy. Incidentally the first circuit i ever build was a direct result of the totse.com text files, which in turn set me off to a technically orientated career.
totse.com forums were (for me as a teenager) a bastion of tech knowledge in the mid 2000s .
