Inspired by a post since deleted, I feel bad for probably coming off judgemental about the poster’s taste in the movie that drove him to consider sailing.

The earliest desired media I can remember that drove me to figure out sailing was DC Talk, a Christian rock band. Pop music was not allowed in my house, so a Christian group was tantalizing and scandalous to a rebellious, young Vanth. Things escalated from there.

    When I was learning programming, free software for schools wasn’t (officially) a thing yet.

    Lots of folks pointedly looked the other way so I could have a home copy of the development environment I was learning.
