How these ports are called?

I mean this port above blue cable(vga?) and this pink one hiding behind cable.

Above vga is a serial port (DB9 socket).

The pink one is a parallel port.

Serial and parallel

What many people don't know this?

RS232 (Serial) and parallel port

tfw one of the first computer games I played was Doom over serial cable

...

face it: we're old.

definitely this

>face it: we're old.
I know. ;_;

boards with parallel port were still around in the early 2000s you must be underage as fuck to not know them

You know that it's possible to be born in 1999 and post on Sup Forums legally, right? How many 0-7 year olds know what a parallel port is?

I still use serial and parallel ports :^)

>mfw I can fap to porn stars that were born after I started fapping to porn

Because no one ever has old computers around.

I'm only 30 but I played around with C64s as a kid.

>Because no one ever has old computers around.
There's old and then there is antiquated. The last computer I owned with both serial and parallel ports was in 2002 when I replaced it for one that only had a serial port. The the one after that had two Ethernet ports instead (around 2005).

I'm also 30 btw, and the first time I played around with a C64 was when I was 26 years old actually.

tfw used to play warcraft over serial.

>we're old
>we're
i included myself in your group faggot. i'm old enough to not only know them but remember having to configure them.

>tfw i was searching for a spare VGA cable yesterday in a box of random shit and found like two RCA to SCART adapters
I'm barely above underageb& but can I join the sekret club of cable oldfags

5-10 year old computers are everywhere.
If not in your household, then in one of your friend's, in your school, etc..
If you never saw a parallel port you're just underage.

>RCA to SCART
I still use that to connect my DVD player, gtfo.

People still use RS232, ever configured a router via console port?

Serial port
Also acceptable: Cereal Port

Not everyone is interested in computers.

They don't belong on Sup Forums

>People still use RS232, ever configured a router via console port?
Hell, I use RS232 and a serial console to debug Linux kernel with GDB. I did this not two months ago.

The absolute STATE of Sup Forums

You'd think that, but surprisingly clueless people still come here and some even become mods like pic related.

I really doubt there are mods here.

I got banned five days for saying that PHP is for niggers.

Can confirm, 99 reporting here
I mean, who cares about your age when you can pretend to be 18, if you're not retarded? It worked for me in the last two years

>Because no one ever has old computers around.
I used a PC with a parallel port for 8-9 years, until I built a Skylake system this february

I can understand why you'd still use RS232, but what are you still using parallel for?

Probably offended the Sup Forums dev with that.

I still use serial ports every day, the rs232 standard is stil used in home theater and general audio gear for use with remotes.

>I can understand why you'd still use RS232, but what are you still using parallel for?
A machine older than me

This tickles my pickle

Probably something like that

>[File deleted]
For free.

really makes you think.

Hmmm

i've always called it a printer port, is that wrong?

It's mostly used for printers, but not exclusively.

You have to be 18 to post here

>he does it because it is the only amount of power & control he will ever have in his pathetic life
