Only because I was younger. Now I have money though.

>>525840076>when we finally got the amazing graphics for video games I wished for as a child, they became too gay to enjoy
>>525840076They were great times. I remember in 2005 it still felt surreal to be playing an online game with other people on the map. I remember showing my dad Runescape back then, explaining to him that each pixel blob was a real human being and he could barely believe it.The internet was not IRL back then, it was like a theme park if the theme park was in the wild wild west. Now it's just moralfag cable TV that you can talk back to.
>>525840076Yeh
>>525840076>Were things actually better in the past?Things were better when they were White.White countries, White manufacturing, White neighbors.
>>525840473>I remember showing my dad Runescape back then, explaining to him that each pixel blob was a real human being and he could barely believe it.Are you winning son?
cost of living was sure as hell better, and don't let boomers convince you otherwise. Luxuries were more expensive but there were other options like rental stores to circumvent the high cost of them.
Some things were, some others not
>>525840076no but it just seems like itAI btw
>>525840076The Kids Aren't Alright - the offspring, 1999numb - linkin larp, 2003Need I say more?
>>525840590>Are you winning son?He used to call it Ruinscape because of how much time I used to spend in my room clicking that shit.
yes normal people could afford houses with pools here
My dad worked a job making far less money than I do adjusted for inflation and was able to support a whole family with 2 cars and a medium sized 3 bedroom house with a pool in the backyard on a single income. This was only 30 years ago.
>>525840076>ea gamesCHALLENGE EVERYTHING
>>525840405Yup. Exactly what I thought. The AI is becoming frightening. The dead give away that it is AI is the phone. The answer is yes OP you AI posting kike fuck because AI fake world photorealisitic bullshit that is quickly becoming nearly indistinguishable from reality is the END OF HUMANITY.I hate this kiked faggot fucking world so fucking much.
>>525840590Kill yourself you fucking rat.
>>525840076Depends on where in the world you are at the time:If you say 60s then Most of the World would dissagreeIf you say 70s then the Middle East and Cambodia And South Asia would disagreeIf you say 80s, Asia in general and South America would disagree If you say 90s, Russia and Eastern Europe would disagree.
>>525841121And your whore mom still divorced him
>>525841650Nope, still together and happy to this day. Sorry to ruin your cuck fantasies.
>>525840076Yes. For one, AI didnt exist. You could trust your eyes, for the most part. Now every picture is fake and gay. Like OP picture.
>>525840076this is just old people cope.but, yes, they were. at least in the US.
>>525840076It was a good time to be a kid
>>525842262That photo is not real.
>>525840076You guys have no idea how good CRT displays are in comparison with LCDs for games. Today you need a thing like XG2431 with BFI and scanline emulator turned on and constant output of 50+ FPS to have a semblance of it.
>>525840076Depends on your priorities. You were exposed to more opinions because you couldn't lock yourself into an echochamber bubble as much as you can now. You could be a king or queen simply by owning a CD-RW drive and form a small cultural group by curating the taste of local masses. You could shit yourself and it didn't go viral. Not bad. But also, you couldn't get anything that wasn't local. You had limited horizon. You didn't know what you didn't know. You had to try, now algorithm feeds you because people want your money. Nobody cared in the past.
No, things have been getting better with every passing year due to technological advancement and philosophical progress.
>>525840076>(ride, ride, ride)
>>525840220I want my innocence back.
>>525840076Looking at your wall my friend group would have called you guys wiggers. We were more into Thrash Metal, Hardcore Punk, Skateboarding, Movies and FPS games like Medal of Honour. Replace the posters with Slayer, Sepultura, Cromags, Agnostic Front...place a big glass bong in the corner, have Medal of Honour, Tony Hawk Proskater or Twisted Metal on and were good. You got your room too niggerfied.
>>525840076>Were things actually better in the past?No.
>>525841543Mad tranny cant make money from your deviant art smut anymore.
>>525840076Yes, 100 percent. The 90s was the best time to be alive, a great follow-up to the 80s. 9/11 killed it all off unfortunately.
>>525842496>Today you need a thing like XG2431 with BFI and scanline emulator turned on and constant output of 50+ FPS to have a semblance of it.Why wouldn't one just get a CRT at that point? Are they hard to find in Poland? They're practically free here if you spend time looking for them.
>>525842805Kek what the fuck are you talking about you dumb nigger. I'm anything but artistic. At any rate - fuck AI.
Yes, social media is killing our souls. Humans need physical and in-person interaction. Everyone is slowly retreating to their rooms to just browse the internet and doom scroll all day.
>>525840076You failed to completely crop out the gemini ai gen at the bottom corner.The pic otherwise looks ai genned. The world is over
>>525840076Yes. 90s here but the US in the 80s was the peak of western civilization and everyone knew it. I don't even like the fat bastards, I don't think they either earned nor deserved it, but that is no reason to lie about it.
>>525840076Yes. I keep praying for a micronova or for the earths magnetic field to reverse so all computers and electronics will be destroyed and no longer work. It is the only way to save Humanity from the Technological Nightmare that is our future .
>>525840076GOD DAMMIT I MISSED OUT ON MT DEW COOL RANCH DORITOS
>>525840220growing in a society where 50% of your peers are niggers, pajeets and sandniggers doesn't sound all that great to me.
I shall now attempt to dump some images of the nasty, brutish, and short life that came before modern progress.

>>525840076despite personal autonomy and money my life feels empty now. it probably wasn't objectively better but i miss having friends and something to look forward to in life.
>>52584007680's and 90's were awesome...as a kid in the 80's (11-20) the only thing around was AIDS. The 90's was pretty calm and quiet the biggest thing was the LA Riots and Clinton/Lewinsky.9/11 is what royally screwed everything up, then 5 years later smart phones and mobile internet came along and finished the job.
>>525840220This is true but the world has gotten so much worse compared to when anyone was young. Even the world prior to covid vs now is just in an entirely new low of hellishness. People who say “the world has always been this way” are niggercattle mouth breathing retards. The INTENT for the world to be this way has always been there, but it has NEVER manifested to be as acutely hellish as it is today.

>>525840076Yes. /thread
I just think this is a losing your innocence thing. I felt good until about 2020-2022. Something snapped in me and made me a bitter person. I guess it was COVID and the increasing in price of everything. I dunno. I feel so old like I've wasted my 20s. I used to be so happy.
>>525841943Death to AI Jews and Indians.
>>525840076Oh, and video gaming was a LOT more fun up until the 2010's....>You OWNED the game>The game was.a physical copy>No DLC>No loot boxes>No stupid in-app purchase crap like COCVideo gaming now is a pathetic joke. I play mostly indie titles.
>>525840076AI sloppa. The late90s/early 2000s (until 2k1) were WAY better than that.
>>525840076Absolutely yes. My country was a wonderful place to live and work. The town in the upper Midwest I was born in used to be populated with White Americans and it was safe. Our local school district won awards and stuff. The farm crisis of the 80’s and 90’s happened, along with globalization. Most of the people died or moved away (myself included), and globohomo shipped in thousands of Somali and Mexican replacements. My second cousin still lives there, it’s a completely unrecognizable shithole.
>>525843738my grandparents say everything went to shit in the 60s
>>525843849The hockey puck mouse!!! The bane of every Apple owner's existence LOL
>>525840076I once lived in a Canada where it was actually true that anyone who was non-white was here for work at the university or energy company. I didnt see a jeet at a convenience store until.... 2012 maybe? But I grew up in the 90s.
From 99'-2003 this was more or less like me and my brothers bedroom. Our video games were jn the living room and our telephone was in the kitchen.
>>525840076yes, manit's not so much about the technology or the media as it is the sense of community and culture we lost
>>525843971We had convenience stores back in the 80's and 90's that were regularly staffed by white people it wasn't until the mid 90's I started seeing more and more Indians running them. Same with hotels.
>>525840220>if you are young and dont know how fucked up the world isif you're young and have no responsibilities other than pretending to be awake at school.
>>525840076yes nomaybe
>>525840076much better but it felt just like the beginning of something amazing, a ramp up to something glorious, everyone was full of enthusiasm and then it gradually started to vanish, starting around mid 2000.no one can explain whywe had faggots and transfaggots back then too, stupid slut whores, racists, fascists, pedophiles, corruption, climate change, propaganda and yet live was liveable, affordable, even conflicts were never that serious, there was never any despair, no black pill, hope filled our hearts to the brim, overflowing.now, all gone.

>>525840076This is not a real photograph. Nice try, though, faggot.
>>525840076Yes, yes they were./thread
>>525840076It was orders of magnitudes better back then. It all fell apart the minute the internet was miniaturized and put in the pockets of everyone. That's when everyone started trying to go viral instead of being present in the moment. It's when people stopped getting together irl. When the internet was 5 million different websites to explore life was better. Now everything centralized into the maybe 30 sites. Everything leads back to Twitter/X.Bring back yahoo groups, the original flickr, stileproject, digg(even though it was a major contributor to the beginning of centralization).The iphone one shotted society.It really did used to be like this... https://x.com/i/status/2010517081188712638

>>525841121My dad made the same amount just over 25 years ago as I do now at the same fucking company. I’m not exaggerating, roughly $120k a year.
>>525840220Shut the fuck up with that simplistic shit. The 90s were so good a mundane office job was considered the worst thing ever. The whole yOu wHeRe a cHiLd is cope for not admitting that all the fags, browns, and kikes have made western living objectively worse.
>>525840160this. I can only appreciate my life in the late '80s and '90s now through the lens of a dystopian hellscape. makes me wonder how good things are actually right now compared to in 30 years
>>525840076Yes, and as someone who lived over 4 decades, picrel isn't even the peak of when things were better, but the beginning of the end.
>>525843932The Voting rights act of 1965 is a major point in the timeline, yes. That’s when the jews decided it was official policy to replace and erase us

Here is me and my bros bedroom late 90s early 00s.
>>525840076I hate these stupid fake slop-filled consoomer nostalgia images. no one had a room like this.
>>525844273> no one can explain whyEveryone can explain why memeflag jew. King jew Henry Kissinger convinced Nixon to abandon the gold standard for israel. We’ve been eating each other and running on fumes from yesteryear for decades now. Might as well ask why it feels amazing to be drunk at midnight but then confused about the 7 am hangover while you’re at it.

>>525840076This image is fucking cursed.
>>525840076Ye
>ai pic>wired gamingLmao.
The switch from physical media to digital is the exact point where everything went bad. Bring back these and everything gets better.
>>525840076>Were things actually better in the past?Yes. I was born in 1980. Was a computer hacker in my youth, now in security. I can't tell you how good things were including the internet.
>>525845911This looks exactly like my best friends older brothers bedroom who was in college when we were 14. He wasnt home one day and we went on his computer and logged into ICQ chat rooms to talk to "hot chicks" that were probably dudes. We watched weird porn together too right after that. Like chick's getting triple teamed and girls messing with animals. Looking back on it now that was pretty fucked up and gay. Lol.
>>525840076>linkin park>sour patch kidsIt was better for sure.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zKyas12ic8
>>525840331Yeah we know growing upp with no foreskin does some strange shit to a . Halfman or. Not all whole of a man so to say Good luck tho, in the future and shit
>>525840076this is AI but yes smart phones (not flippys) ruined a lot and gay 9/11
>>525840076Objectively yes, no shit coloreds. It was too good and we let the snakes creep in. Not hard to depose of them.
>>525841239>CHALLENGE EVERYTHINGespecially the kikes
>>525845657No I'm Catholic actually you low IQ mongoloid. You will never escape AI. Just go live in the woods where you belond like a hermit recluse.
>>525845054weird we had same experience with slavs in the 90s
>>525840076no there are cycles of degeneration, ie educated people in the 1950s would be writing about how shit things are and reaching towards the Kali Yuga. We are just living further down the cycle of degeneration so previous cycles dont seem as bad as this one because there was still some aspect of truth that existed in the past that has since rotted away to facilitate the perpetuation of the system.I'd imagine in the future if there is no public genetic modification technology we will likely see light skinnned mutts claiming to be white or transexuals using advanced technology to have children. You might even see pedophilia normalized or human trafficking normalized and you might think people are too smart for that but the reality is that if you keep people well fed, entertained, and some sense of pride in their lifestyle then they will go along with any propaganda the system puts forth.The two issues therin lie as the elites who run the system can play any game they want in response to what the public will be receptive to, and #2 you have the braindead Lemming masses who will go along with anything.
AI is getting pretty good bros. I wouldn't have noticed if not for the gameboy charger plugged into the cartridge slot, and the fact that the NFS Underground 2 menu is missing the girl I used to jerk off too.

>>525840076Surge was already dead when most of that stuff was released
>>525840076In some aspects yes in others no. Like all things in life. It also depends from person to person. Imagine that you were abused as a kid at i would guess you wouldnt look to fondly on the past especialy if you are well in life now.
>>525843298>>525843343>>525843386>>525843418>>525843465Lmfao they had nothing good their music was just "shubidubiduba" some shit like that, they dressed like shit men wearing pants up on their chest, women looked retarded and hairy dirty pussy, food sucked there was literally nothing good and most importantly they had no emo or goth chicks, anybody born after 1960s had the best times to be alive and boomers or you boomerboos can cope as much as you want you can't deny the purest truth we had the best times to be alive emo and goth chicks, alternative music, WWE, Halo, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Minecraft, Roblox, Parkour, Skating, Biking, Beyblade, Card fights, Legos, Anime, Moutain Dew, Monster, Redbull, Doritos, Pringles all the good shit that the dusty doomer mind couldn't comprehend to even dream about, if a 20 years old boomer was getting timewrapped randomly in 1980s-2014 he would think he is in heaven
>>525840405>>525840716So It seems.Also 1pbtID
>>525840076Is this AI? It’s starting to get pretty good.
>>525840076Yes, because before the smartphone made the internet ubiquitous you could actually unplug yourself from the world's bullshit, live your life and just enjoy shit. I actually enjoyed participating in activities with others like concerts because people didn't constantly record everything for some lame social media post and were instead living in the moment. Even watching a movie with people sucks because they just can't help themselves to spoil the mood by bringing up their phone for some dopamine hit because their fried brains can't handle boredom for half a fucking second. People are way more retarded and secluded now because of it.
