I am going through my own personal computer history museum, wiping and disposing of 25 years of my old laptops, phones, and tablets. It's an emotional journey that involves ancient Linux distros, forgotten passwords, and stickers from the organizations that time forgot. I will post pictures when I'm done!
Here is the one I'm erasing now -- my Sony Vaio from 2001-2004, complete with Srini stickers, EFF propaganda, and various stickers I got at Defcon. It is running an ancient version of Red Hat Linux and Windows under VMware
@annaleen unamerican activities stickers! Nice!
@evan I still have a giant art book full of those stickers (minus the ones on this laptop)
@annaleen it's great! I got it so my kids would have angry stickers for their laptops and backpacks.
@evan yes!! That's it. I let my nephew raid it for stickers. 
@evan do you know what happened to Srini? Is he here on Mastodon?
@annaleen He lives in Goa now. He posts on Instagram occasionally -- especially photos of the big thick books he's reading.
@evan that makes me happy -- it sounds like he's living his best life. 
The site, that is. He (or somebody else associated with the site? quarter-century old memory is fuzzy) came into the gas station I was working at immediately before officially in tech.
Recognized his shirt from unamerican.com, blurted "Unamerican!" had a very quick chat and got gifted some "fuck work" stickers to place strategically throughout the gas station.
Glad he's doing okay. He (or his employee?) seemed nice.
