It's not even about how old some things are. My biggest thing is how much more creative we were with the innovations. We were installing fucking record players into cars for fucks sake lol. Men to the moon. IBM. Macintosh. Commodore. Zenith. RCA. Apple Pie. I truly am enjoying this. I spent most of the past two days going down a rabbit hole of YouTube videos from a lot of the things posted so truthfully all kidding aside? I appreciate it. I don't imagine I would've had these convos anytime soon outside the forums. |

You bought one of the first CD players that came out. I Paid $700 for a Philip CD-100.
Back then there were only a few dozens of CD's available. Paid $25 for my first one; Bridge Over Trouble Water. A few years later "Columbia House" dropped the Cassette and you could get CD's for pretty cheap. My brother still use it... |

Damn I googled it. They won four "championships" but never in the SB era. They've never won and never been to the super bowl. Worse? They're the only nfc team never to make it and they've been around since the beginning. |

I remember watching my grandfather watching Neil Armstrong back in 69 on a colour TV and thinking that in his life time, he went from having no electricity to someone walking on the moon. I also remember getting my wife the first iPad just over 11 years ago (she had a few more since) and I'm no longer surprise by the Technology. Truthfully, the only thing that would impress me would be a "Star Trek Like Transporter" |

When the mirrors didn't fold in or when we couldn't roll up the windows when the doors open? That stuff. Or I can lock my door when the engines running. https://bimmercode.app/cars/g30/ - here's a list of "codes" that can be unlocked. Features to activate. If you go previous gen cars and even the gem before that, there's a lot more to unlock. Some of them I don't do (I leave seatbelt chimes on) for example but the door chimes are now rolls Royce - only because they're softer and more pleasant sounding LOL Oh, and Euro MDM setting? It's less forgiving then USA MDM setting. Meaning, tail end will swing out a bit more before the nannies kick in. |
