Technologies that you wish were never abandoned

>>106463324kek Imagine being such a piss head that you need to get one of these installed. Probably quite expensive back then too, so must have been a fairly well-off alcoholic.
>>106463406>1300sEveryone was a pisshead back then brother
wish CRTs were still being made. what make arcades so popular was the unmistakeable look of a big CRT. since they switched to LCDs, arcades died.
>>106463406Given the asymmetry of this, it looks like it was made by someone fucking around with what would otherwise be waste. I doubt it was that expensive, especially if it came from the shop of the person who owned the home.
>>106463463Wasn't most water unclean so the only thing that was safe to drink was alcoholic drinks?
>>106463495I'm not so sure modern displays killed the arcade. What killed the arcade was having a pocket device with you at all times that can play games anywhere you go and not having to insert quarters to do so.
>>106463514Also home consoles in general and gaming PCs getting better (no need to go to the arcade to play $GAME when you have $GAME at home)
You hold the key near the tip of your index finger. Then you search for the keyhole with the tip of your finger. Then you insert the key when you find it.
>>106463495>>106463514bruhs there's like 20 years between the demise of arcades and the rise of lcd panels
>>106463324need this on my car
>>106463520>>106463514Speaking of, I miss games fitting on a single (or even a few) disks THAT I OWN, and not needing to download anything to run said game.
>>106463324am I the only one seeing this
>>106463347Say the dude who never get drunk to the point you can't even walk. Opening a door with a key is a complex task for someone trying not to pass out.
>>106463559stop drinking alcohol

>>106463495I'd create a crt again in a nanosecond, the problem is that we don't have the technology to do that anymore. We used to, but we destroyed that technology, and it's a painful process to build back again. In addition, we accidentally recorded over the tapes that had the information on them.
>>106463513Do you really, truly, believe that nobody knew how to find clean water, and that everyone was shitfaced all day everyday?
>>106463579Last time I tried to buy some through Telegram I'm 95% positive the cops set me up. I ran like a bitch and decided not to buy weed anymore.
>>106463555crazy that there is a hyperdimensional latent space inside an llm where every possible tramp stamp exists in every possible variation at every possible angle and etc condition. the mind recoils at such a manifold. and yet it exists
>>106463592That's why you're supposed to know the guy you're buying off.Your friendly neighbourhood drug dealer is a good person 90% of the time.
>>106463592I am growing my own stuff, can't you do this? just buy a tent, some light and you're good to go, I have spent maybe 200 eurodollar
>>106463620My wife hates drugs.I chose the wrong woman. Never make the same mistake I did.
>>106463463>>106463513>>106463584let's settle this once and for all /g/, is medievals drinking beer instead of water a myth or is the idea that it's a myth itself a myth? Or is that a myth?
>>106463555why do asians think this scribble thing is hot? what's the backstory
>>106463631it was the case in victorian era of england, especially in big cities like london and that's it. people in rural areas had good water, just cook it.
>>106463631That idea is mostly untrue, most people had access to clean water but it did happen in some limited capacity. People in the past were mostly just alcoholics.
>>106463567>>106463579You're a faggot.
>>106463668>imagine drinking stuff that kills your brain cellsno, you are the faggot here
>>106463656I can see that. Would you want to drink the water from the Thames?At the same time, I think you're right that water quality elsewhere was probably better where as today it's probably much worse thanks to sewage discharges.
>>106463675Weed smokers are faggots. I couldn't care less about alcohol.
>>106463513bro really got that "youtube history trivia shorts" education
>>106463495purported successors, FEED and SEED were also actual things before also being abandoned
>>106463513This shit is a total lie told by retards, try making alcohol with dirty water and see how well that goes for you.
this one of those things that kind of seem like they might be true but its really not. we call this phenomenon: reddit bullshit.
>>106463752I think that's his point and probably where the myth originates from (the people making the alcohol had access to clean water in large quantities)
>>106463631typically the beer or wine was watered down for everyday consumption. wellwater was fine unless there were jews nearby.

>>106463632https://www.japanesewithanime.com/2019/04/inmon.htmlTL;DR Womb Tattoo is a trope that shows up a lot in hentai involving magic, demons and other such things - it often represents a character's sexual energy, or it may be the mark of a sex-related curse, or it may be a visual indication that a character is a succubus etc etc. In general, it's usually sex magic related
>>106463580>hurr durr we dont have the technology we recorded over the tapespeople have made crude CRTs in their fucking garage, drop the hollywood melodrama bullshit
>>106463579>you, and all your belongings, now stink like a skunk's asshole for all eternity>car trade-in value: $0.00>house sale value: $0.00>dating prospects: 0
>>106463858>>106463730lmao alcohol lobbyists are mad
>>106463631The answer is it depends. If you have access to clean water, you drink water because it's free.If you for any reason don't have that, booze is usually safe to drink, and can sometimes be stored for a time without going bad. Note that even when not watered down, medieval drinks were much weaker than today - I vaguely recall someone brewing beer using a ~1500s recipe and it turned out to maybe 1-2% compared to modern 4%+, probably a similar story with wine
>>106463376this nigger really said a 5w led glued to your door is inergonomic [sic] and resource consumptive
>>106463902>I vaguely recall someone brewing beer using a ~1500s recipe and it turned out to maybe 1-2%we got this shit here in germany, it goes from 2 to 2.5%
>>106463921Radler barely counts as real beer tbf
>>106463921Yeah but that's beer mixed with lemon soda.If it's 2-2.5% then the beer they used was 4-5%
>>106463509You forgot that we talk about XIV century. blacksmithing was still relatively primitive industry and with exception of shit literally made for noblefucks, was not really super concerned with aesthetics.I don't think that person commissioning this kind of addition for their lock was a king, but they clearly were not some piss-poor farmer. Bonus points that there is an attempt of decoration in form of simple leaf patterns on both ends instead of simple flattened pieces.Actually fuck, I just checked it - Since VI century Regensburg was family of Agilofilfings was living, literal rulers of Bavaria and since early XIII century, it was capital of Bavaria. It also had large church and clergy and bunch of patricians fighting over who can build the tallest tower in the city.
>>106463555>this meaning cervix? or the guix logo. then yes
>>106463580You're retarded dramafag.Creating CRTs is not really lost technology - we understand exactly how they were made and have technology available to do it. Issue is that it's fucking expensive to construct a CRT display unless you go full industrial mode and start selling literal millions of them. It also does not help that a lot of components used in CRTs nowadays are literally illegal so you would need to figure out some kind of replacements or lol deals with government but good fucking luck.CRTs are not some insane, lost technology. It just stopped being profitable to produce and sell them the moment when much cheaper alternatives appeared.
>>106464097>technology - scientific knowledge used in practical ways, particularly in industry, or as the machinery and equipment designed using that knowledgeIt's accurate to say the technology is lost even if the science is understood.
>>106463324>Technologies that you wish were never abandonedpocket camerasmicroSD in phones and tabletsaudio jack on phones and tablets4:3 screens on computers
The tech was never lost, only refined. See that indent in the keyhole? Same purpose
>>106464429I just find it funny that people get so shitfaced, they they can't even keep their finger placed on the keyhole with one hand, and follow it with the other to find the lock.Alcohol really is fucking fantastic.
>>106464864bro youre just laughing at the gayest reddit bullshitits not even true, its not for making it easier to get the key in the hole, its just a fucking decoration so your door doesnt look like shit with a weird hole randomly in it

>>106464894It's Germany so its a distinct possibility.
>>106464894>laughing at people being shitfaced and not being able to find the keyhold when drunk is plebbitOkay retard, lacking in reading comprehension.
>>106464291Oh pleaseIs picrel "lost technology" just because the tooling to make them has been scrapped?Is a Dodge Charger "lost technology" because they discontinued them last year?Your definition is retarded
>>106463580retarded zoomer you can literally still buy CRTs. you're just too poor for them because the only surviving markets are smashfags(also poorfags) and industrial environments>>106464097>literally illegallike what nigger? and dont say leaded glass because leaded glass was not used in CRTs. they use borosilicate glass.>>106463463>>106463513>>106463631it's a half truth. everyone was constantly drinking beer/wine, but it was also much weaker than it is today. the average beer was like 2% and wine was like 5%.>>106463804>watered downyou may be thinking of grog, which was made with spirits and citrus juice. it was basically a way to preserve fruit juices for long voyages and also wasn't very high in alcohol content. the stories of sailors constantly getting piss drunk or being rewarded with booze usually were the sailors drinking the spirits directly (the ships would also carry spirits "raw" to either make more grog once they get to port and can buy more fruit, at least in theory. in reality a lot of it got drunk straight)>>106463921>>106463902russia has something like this called kvass. it's made by fermenting old rye bread in water and is usually 0.5% to 2% and is drunk the same way as back then -- out of a giant fucking bottle that you swill all day just to keep hydrated. only the most dire alcoholics (and children) use it to get party drunk. it's sold in most shops and the <1% stuff can be purchased by children sorta like "wine coolers" in the west>>106463632it's a huge meme now for unclear reasons but basically it's the asian version of the BLACKED spade tattoo. it denotes that the character is officially a massive fucking hoe built for nutting inside and usually the center of the tattoo will denote exactly by what (usually a demonic/angelic motif, but sometimes something like a paw or horseshoe or even the occasional playing card spade depending on the context and themes of the doujin)
rebuildable vape devices. I dont like having to buy pods evne if they are refillable. just let me buy wire and wind that shit around some bamboo fabric myself
>>106464990As a Hungarian I can confirm that this is still accurate except for the plenty
>>106463514The arcades died in the '90s, right after the invention of the Playstation 1. Before the og playstation, arcades were still huge, if you were lucky enough to have one.

>>106465024Neither is bent metal riveted to a door. It fits the hyperbolic nature of the thread topic.
>>106467342"not in common use" and "lost technology" are two very distinct things
>>106467414>>106467342"abandoned" and "lost" are not the same either but CRTs are neither abandoned nor lost. they're still in use in certain settings and you can go buy one right now
