.avi was a video file format like .mpg back in the day when we had to download our porn one file at a time, slowly. Though in this instance I'm assuming it's a fucking stupid shorthand for "avatar."

Oh, I'd forgotten about .avi's. Also haven't thought about limewire in about as long.

I too forgot all about .avi's. How did that happen?

Probably due to you not remembering them

You're not wrong.

The ravage of time I guess?

Well do you at least remember DviX?

That's quite possible haha.

That's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

The compression format or the failed rental format?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Compression format, xvid replaced it before the hevc codecs were invented.

I'm assuming you're correct
