>>110128581but this was not better. today is better, we are just sidelined by AI companies right now.if you are a whore, whore for the guy with unlimited money and a cock that never quits.
>>110128594>but this was not betterT9 was objectively better than tapping on glass, you could text with your phone in your pocket without looking at it just from tactile feedback
>>110128594>but this was not better. today is betterholy shit, the zigger cope
>>110128581>nostalgia NPCgo back to jeettube

There's merit to defending and attacking the old days and those with nostalgia.While times were absolutely simpler and more streamlined back in the 90's and early 2000's, everyone dreamed of what the future would be like. Our technology was much slower and more primitive than today, and we constantly craved and embraced progress for advanced technology over the years. We wanted to live in a future of hyper-tecnhology without restriction.It's good to reminisce over the past, but those days are gone. For better or worse, this is the world we live in now, and we just have to deal with it and move on with the world or be left behind.We're getting older, not younger.
>>110128776its niggers
no, we need to go forward, faster
>>110128838Also this.
>>110128845>This is the only way to get a gf in 2026
>>110128581can you imagine picking up a Sony GDM-FW900 and a Geforce 2U to go home and play Deus Ex at 1600x1200?yeah those really were the days, no DEI to fuck with our games, no women screaming at us about being included on the helpdesk. no indians either
>>110128776>>110128838technology subsidizes people who shouldn't reproduce and penalizes people who should by allowing a hyper-efficient way of taxing them and providing for the latterimagine going back to subsistence farming, jamal sure as fuck isn't going to survive if he has to work an honest day doing physical labor to actually have food to eatwe really need a carrington event
>>110128762you mean the schnozz?
>>110128606Who even cares about texting without looking?
>>110130037this guy couldn't text from his pocket, point at him and laugh!
>>110128606It sucked man, why do you think keyboard phones became popular for a (short) while
>>110128581>Buy giant box of floppy disks for $40.>Get $40 back in mail in rebate.how?
>>110128691i am 40, im very familiar with CRTs. they were big, heavy, they are the reason screen savers were invented. they sucked. now i have a flat panel 27inches across that produces beautiful visuals with no distortion and takes up minimal desk space. would hate to go back.
>>110130356most people didnt fucking bother with mail in rebates even then.
>>110130356ye olde data farming technique
>>110128691The only real cancer part of CRTs was hauling them to LANs. But it's not like people do those anymore anyway.
>>110128594This WERE better then, but it's because we're looking towards the future. Look at 25 year old dumb phones and they look more futuristic than a modern smart phone.This "realism" that "things are great actually because we have the same eras on repeat in higher definition" is a corporate psy op.If you're young then you shouldn't be complacent. A future was taken from you. You should be absolutely furious that you don't live in the 2026 that we thought we'd live in back in 2006.
>>110130463>beautiful visuals Of beautiful things?>>110130064They didn't "become popular" 95% of people used T9.>>110128776People need to stop the "things were more innocent back then" bullshit as if most Millennials didn't see hundreds of people die on live television.That was taken was the dream of the future, if new art forms, of new things.That's because corporations are incapable of creating because the tenancy of the market is towards profit NOT experimentation.The smart phone is thee handheld version of the glass towers: and absence.
