I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Gopher, Netscape with frames, the first Browser Wars. Searching for pages with AltaVista, pop-up windows self-replicating, trying to uninstall RealPlayer. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
What it means

A screenshot of a tweet nostalgically listing obsolete early-internet technologies and experiences. The joke parodies Roy Batty’s dying monologue from Blade Runner, replacing memories of a life with memories of the old web and ending with “Time to die.” It is commonly shared as a reaction to internet nostalgia, technological obsolescence, or getting older.

Who
Roy Batty, Blade Runner
