We need to bring back Futiger Aero.
>>544783443Futurism requires hope for futureBack then it was scifi lile voyager and best tv show ever andromeda, now we imagine future as black mirror
>>544783443Only a faggot would have owned that back then
>>544783443you know what fucking "aesthetic" i miss? white fucking neighborhoods and affordable housing, you fucking nigger.
>>544783443>silver appliancesYeah it matches the rest of my space ship. Barely a step up from the weird beige they use for monitors and prosthetic limbs. Really don't see why it took them so long to try black desu.
FFX will always be the epitome of 2000's futurism for me.Like when they go play Blitzball and that city that is futuristic (Bevelle i think), yet tribal, along with all the use of the colour yellow and beach vibes.That said, the pic in OP's post, after 1 year of use, will be filled with water marks from cleaning, fingerprints, static dust deposits, food and debris etc. All highlighted by the material choice allowing so much light you can see all the imperfections.
That's AI though.
>>544783443>zoomies: huurrr unc millennials suck blah blah>also zoomies: *copy and adore everything from our youthful era*shut up fortnite faggot find your own style
>>544783443https://youtu.be/oNXzMBA9VU4Our world used to have soul. Now it has thirdies.
>>544783604This, there were no niggers in the neighborhood i lived in Pre 2000. There were very few niggers at school even. This is right outside minneapolis. Unthinkable today. Absolute shame.>>544783526I remember these in the late 90s. I actually use the same dijits from usernames back then, they used them at school. Fuck im old. The Ipod in OP lol.
>>544783718Thats styles gay af cunt
>>544783443Isn’t this the aesthetic that zoomers are copying now?
>>544783628ty for the info
>>544783443>imagine both things...>...but in one.Agelets cant even conceive of this
>>544783772Yeah, same like you tried to copy boomer style from the 60/70s in the 2000s. It always lags about 30-40 years behind.
>>544783762yeh thats why we ditched it, now gay zoomies are nostalgic for some old gay style they were never around for
>>544783866FUCK AND I GOT DUBBS BUT FORGOT PIC>imagine both things...>...but in one.Agelets cant even conceive of this
>>544783893Gaysthetic lol
>>544783443>everything looked like fisher price toysNo dark mode no thanks
>>544783443It's just shit. Ugly soulless, you only like it only because local computer club had windows XP during your childhood.
>>544783922Imagine having different devices for different purposes lol
>>544784006>Its all the same hardware, chat. We could just... chat. >holy shit>I just got an idea
I had pic rel. Good times. I actually might have still have it somewhere.
>>544783547>>544783547>>544783612>>544783685>>544783718>>544783740>>544783772Don’t listen to the brownskins and newfags, OP. Frutiger Aero was the last time a white man spawned authentic industrial design for the last other white men of this world. The nineties were the last decade with soul because it was the last chance the white man had to impress his aesthetic upon the modern zeitgeist, in terms of practical utility.

>>544783443nightmare to clean
>>544783443I really miss my basic bitch compaq with Windblows XP
>>544784216I also pondered upon this question
>>544784182I think my sister had a red one once. I also had a green and blue one afaik.
>>544784216>never heard of a power plantshiggydiggy etc

>>544784118I still have this but silver
>>544783443Aislop
>>544784266Yes the red one was only owned by girls because they used to give them away at makeup outlets like sephora and mac
>>544784216I think it's supposed to be an apple mouse from that time. The pic looks AI though.
>>544784299
>>544784315Nice, post pics. >>544784286I don't think so. >>544784323Didn't know that.
>>544783443Sharp released full color LCD display in 1988, which was the holy grail of the display industry. US was seething and did everything it could to undermine Sharp. By 2000, the display market was filled with Korean and Taiwan cheap knock-offs, and our Sharp lost all profitability and dead. Gaijins are dirty and they do anything when they are losing.
>>544784319gas yourself kike you weren’t invited
>>544784216You fucking retards don't know what a water-cooled mouse is.
>>544784367Trust the salaryman, he knows he consumer electronics
>>544784367Man growing up in Japan in the 80s must have been pretty fucking cool.
>>544784280Ha! Nice.
>>544784394based leaf with tandem bantzall of their plastics are opaque, imagine that
IMAGINE NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THROUGH YOUR CONSUMER ELECTRONICS
>>544783628All that glossy transparent plastic scuffs easily too, after which it looks cheap and shitty.
>>544784548lollll your skin is brown
>>544784216It's definitely AI. There's also 3 earbuds, instead of 2. That ipod mini is color, which never existed, and it has a play/pause button in the middle of the scroll wheel. The cell phone has an awkward antenna poking up the top-middle of the screen. There's an inexplicable hard drive or CD drive rack on the left side? I could go on, but that's enough examples.
>>5447834431987 here. Early 2000s aesthetic still makes me instantly super comfy
>>544784548Not everyone throws their things around.
>>544783443Way to much reflections
>>544783443Greek brit frat fags, je wsh Arab homos and feminists hate Europeans for inventing everything good so they had to make it shittier
>>544784539Just go to prison.In Prison all electronics is see through so you can't hide drugs inside.
>>544784675That actually sounds aesthetic af. Prison core when?
>>544784583holy shit dude great job you totally nailed it thanks man now do you mind hanging yourself so we can enjoy the intended aesthetic without being reminded of the minor details that separate the art from the dystopia that it’s emulating?
>>544784694I want it.
>>544784675ha close, anon, very close.But in prison it has to be perfectly transparent, whereas in the Frutiger Utopia™ were permitted tinted green and blue
I just miss when the future looked hopeful, I feel like we had a reason to look forward to what the future might bring.The 90's was such a perfect blend of tech and culture, going from Sega Genesis and SNES to PlayStation and N64 felt so revolutionary, I will never forget the day I witnessed Tekken 3 in the arcades, to my 13 year old eyes it looked real.I guess what I'm trying to say is fuck kikes.
TINTED GREEN AND/OR BLUE TRANSLUCENT PLASTIC THOSE ARE YOUR CHOICES
>>544784790Lol, this guy never had pale yellow see through electronics! Hahahaha!
>>544784758The internet ruined everything, you realize that, right?
>>544784806>honey flavored imac god we had it all
>>544784813And Indians ruined the internet
>>544784870Indians weren’t a problem before the internet. No my problem, anyway.
>>544784927Kikes didn't spread them until after the internet
>>544784607Normal use scuffs it over time because the plastic is relatively soft. All it takes is one little spec of dirt rubbing on it.Opaque plastic scratches just as easily, but it's way more noticeable with the clear glossy material.
>>544784968chicken or the egg?Uncle Ted was right either way.

>>544785039So what dude? You’re literally a brown person born after the year 2005 so nobody ITT cares what your opinion is

>>544785124You write like a spoiled teenage girl so the same applies to you. In fact, the anon you replied to said nothing to warrant your little meltie here. You're probably browner than him. And more overweight too
>>544785278I mean the Canadian flag warrants it but then again they both have Canadian flags
>>544785530Go to a LLM and ask this: "Can you give me a deep dive into memetics so i can better understand how multiple people existing at the same time in the same culture may come to the exact same preference for a subject or topic or theme despite being independent agents".That should clear up any lingering questions, if you don't want a deepdive, ask for a concise summary.>muh llmYeah, i can write it all out, 2,000 characters at a time, post by post - but an LLM will functionally print it out in a better format, with more sources, with the ability to focus down on specifics in 100ms.

>>544783443It looks gay and ugly.
>>544783628We are brothers. FFX was peak. It was THE shit.
>>544783443I miss flip phones with buttons.
>>544783443nothing lasts foreverGotta love these exaggerated pictures though. Nobody had a setup like that in the 2000s.
>>544784790CYAN
>>544785862Cheyenne
I can’t even begin to describe how exciting shit felt growing up in the 90s and 2000s seeing shit like that everywhere, it was like the world was saying you think everythinf is good now? It’s going to get even fucking better!! (In the future) I fucking HATE the modern world and what it’s turned into. I wish I could go back in time and warn myself how fucking fast shit would change and that the trajectory I thought we were on was completely made up
>>544783628>>544785688man that game gave me the FEELS as a kid
>>544783443that was bullshit design, I remember this from 1999 to 2003-2004. Shortlife because shitty.80s aesthetics lives decades and first wave back to the 80s was from 2003 driven by Vice City. Just after 13 years after the 80s end.You don't have similiar nostalgia to 00s slop. That was worse design than 90s office equipment design. Today people builds custom cyberdeck laptops and guess, nobody build in 00s aesthetics. Because it looks like from asian street market.
>>544783499Cyberpunk dystopias and post-apocalyptic wastelands look like escapist fantasies compared to the future we actually got.
>>544783872I did no such thing you faggot
>>544783443I remember hating this stuff at the time, but I was young.
>>544784539>>544784724clear plastic OG "brick" Nintendo Gameboy was the GOAT... Even the GBA had a translucent/foggy plastic version.It really let you appreciate the engineering of technology you owned.> opaque plastic"why would anyone be interested in developing new technology?"> clear plastic"HOLY SHIT LOOK AT ALL THE PARTS AND PIECES DOING THINGS, THIS IS AWESOME!"
>>544783628This, that stuff looked great for about a month and then it got gross. Also FF6 is the best.
>>544785156>running them on what fish drink and not proper "fuel"Pffff ...
>>544786312Idk id take some of the 2000s stuff over the trend of all black minimalist everythinf we got in the 2010s and a bunch of LEDs to make up for the fact it’s so boring looking.
>>544783954You had people making the same criticism of windows XP and the GameCube but when you compare that to modern OS and consoles now at least the old shit had soul and felt like a human designed it and not a board room of stock investor faggots. Youre soulless. Maximalism is coming back. There isn’t any coincidence that in the last shit hope depressing decade everything was also minimalist trash
>>544787240The irony of naming a game "final fantasy" then making 10+ sequels
>>544784314>I had a lot of fun with Brycejesus...that brings back memories
>>544783718idk if ur shitposting but i think it's nicethe zoomie will install a winXP skin and I will reminisce about my first POS beige PCand then the zoomie will send me a 6-7 cat meme and I will laugh a littlestop being a calcified asshole lol, only ones I hate are the feral iPad kids and esp. their parents
>>544783443>had to go awayIt didn't but since it's just one of many nice aesthetics it would never be in the spotlight forever. Still, just like efforts were made to bring it about in the first place, it just needed to be supported by high quality products to keep going, or return. You know aesthetics return every now and then and the next time it can be even better due to advancements in other fields. But who will lead the effort?
>>544783443I always hated that look. It is gay and bad and you should feel bad for posting it you gypsy.
>>544783547This
>>544788514It’s a based look the problem is they didn’t use anout chrome or fake metal silver plastic to balance out the clear shit arguably there should also be some frosted plastic which isnt so see through to balance it out also.
>>544783443Is this a real picture? Did the world look like this?
>>544783718None of these designs had anything to do with you, nigger. Millennials were aged 10 when Windows XP came out

>>544783718Boomers made this. Boomers were more capable than anyone after. The problem was with the greed and willingness to sacrifice the future for that greed.
>>544783604I miss skinny women with pleasant attitudes and warm smiles, myself
Apple killed interesting techEverything is a minimalist slate or dongle designed to be hidden now
>>544783922Those things should be seperate again. Internet should only be accessible through physical cable. Phones should only do call/voicemail/text, nothing else. Physical media (CD) should be king again. CD technology should be improved to be archival M-disc-like quality. Ipod is only a backup. GPS, Phone, Computer/Internet, MP3 player, CD player, all seperate things, and social media websites should be much smaller and localized, and most shopping should be done at stores, online shopping kept to a minimum, or none at all. Everyone goes back outside and interacts with eachother. As God fucking intended. Pre-9/11 as well as around 2005/2006ish were the last semi-normal years. 2007 was the end of the world.
>>544783718That's the only time I like zoomers actually.They recognize the aesthetics of that time

>>544784715Use your own advice you fucking retard.Imbeciles like you drowning in cheap fake fantasy are one of the main reasons AI slop is on the rise.Get fucking raked.
I don't care what zoomers say the Beige aesthetic was better.
