>  "Enjoy this exact moment you are living in" but for the most part, I cannot stop thinking for some reason. Then, nostalgia will happen and I will remember those moments after realizing how stupid I was for not enjoying them more. 

I had and to a lesser extent still have a feel very similar feel for most of my life. I remembered realizing that their was moments that I would miss yet I would actively try to cherish that moment when it happened I'd often fail to, yet I'd still feel it later. I remember first realizing thoughts like around 2011. I would sit in my parents old bed room and watch how the sun would shine and just think. I started to think on a lot of things, from wondering what I'd be nostalgic about in th future (and thinking about how I will be nostalgic for those moments right then). I had just discovered the fandom and was lightly consuming content of it on my phone (because I usually looked up stuff on computer), so MLP has an association in all of this and was a major player in my interests  to this day  . I feels odd to talk about because I have a hard time wording it. That era and MLP to an extent plays a part in how I divide time and eras.

> What I wouldn't give to live out early 2000's internet plus ponies combo.

Granted, I wasn't there, and it probably looks wonderful only on paper, but still, the temptation and sentiment is huge.
I remember that era. Playing flash games on Lego's website. My grandmother's dial up. Old forums and websites I'd get a glimpse of while watching my Dad mess with the computer. Specialty new tech machines that do one purpose, as oppose to everything being a IoT smartphone. It's an era I'd like to revisit simply because there was less centralization, though I do agree that a lot of it was rose tinted glasses.

> Yea, I was talking about early 2000's + G4 MLP. Earlier gen was actually there for that times, but it was nowhere near as interesting as G4 would be.

I know MLP was sometimes memed to a light extent. In the hacker world there was the pwnie awards  or should I say the mainstream white hat infosec people?  and that Canada's net surveillance program was pre gen4 MLP themed. Though those were just based on puns and such with there being no real fandom.

Me too actually.

>  it didn't have all that big of an impact on the rest of the site everr since I think

Disagree, at least in part. There certainly is notable controversies and cultural references on the site. I've seen anons complain since MLPOL gr15 having been broken more often for example. 

> Hit. Three time's a charm, isn't it?

 remembered /flutter/'s bunker is here. that + restrictive gun law remark and reference to 3 Kings Day.

 You're  arch, so you're hyper-based 
 I primarily use plain old Debian, but have messed with everything from Slackware to NetBSD btw  
 Don't consider me good at anything though
