I honestly see in 5-10 years a revival of 1950-1990 analogue tech.

Digital will devolve into something so bad people will return to dumb phones or printed books or physical cartridges of roms.

School tests will be done on manual calculators and typewtiters.

No shit. The real question is why is tech being systematically disabled like this

>typewriters
What the fuck kind of retard school allows anything more than pen and paper during a test?

way ahead of you
theres nothing good coming out anyway, and there's infinite existing books to read, movies to watch, games to play

Physical media will see a sharp rise again, especially when it comes to movies & tv shows. People will get tired of the rising streaming costs, fragmentation, and movies/shows getting removed from the service.
>but muh piracy
Normies don't pirate and gladly pay for shit instead.

I can see LAN parties becoming popular again now that online games are overrun with cheaters and bots.

I was more than half a semester into a college math class when I encountered a question on a test that said "use the pi button on your calculator." Up to that point I had been working all the questions by hand on paper.

I already thought ahead of this and quietly bought up 5 grand worth of DDR3 ram for when people wise up and start using machines we never needed to stop using in the first place.

I know its popular to blame AI right now but badly optimized code is the only reason why people think they need top of the line product. in 10 years AI is going to assrape trannycoders so bad the bar for quality designed software will market correct itself and more efficient programs will make do with good enough processing power, IE computing from the 2008-2013 era. The same will happen with graphics in video games and youtube videos. Frothing 4ktards who think they need more than 720p and PS3 graphics can get hung from a tree.

No they wont what can you do with a dumb phone ? nothing just stare at it like a retard just call and text boring as fuck people wont ditch the smartphone and go back to that

>>109179790

unless you can get analogue into a cheap compact form while having superior quality it will never take over digital. You zoomers probably don't realize how cumbersome the technology was, you first would need to own a permanent home to fit all that stuff in and have a middle class income to maintain it because the materials and things required for analogue was so expensive.

>>109179127
It’s already popular.
>>109179741
So cunts like you are the reason I can’t fix my server without dropping four hundo. Fuck off

>zoomers
>owning a home
Millennials can’t even afford a home, zoomers are never going to be homeowners. That being said, by “retro” they just mean 20+ year old hardware formats. Not analog.

>1950
what tech from the 50s, 60s and 70s could even be remotely useful in big 2026?
