Still, complaining that you have to walk on eggshells because of snowflakes and SWJ shows the member has opinions that aren't popular, and somehow blames others for it. I have controversial opinions on stuff, I know it can cause issues in discussions, I don't bring it up unless it's relevant, and I certainly don't put the fault of it on others when I do bring it up and have to argue my point.

Posted November 26, 2020 Pros of the 90s: + Hand drawn animation vs flash + Console wars were actually interesting + 8 year olds didn't have iPhones + WWF attitude era + No social media breeding toxicity + Games didn't have achievements for simply playing it + TSA booty pirates didn't exist + People weren't overly sensitive + No simping over Onlyfans etc. Cons: - No internet for you if someone wanted to use the phone - Took forever to load anything - Giant af inconvenient maps thay folded over x100000 times - PC tech was horribly expensive - Had to actually call people if you wanted to order food (pizza and Chinese only) - Uber/Lyft didn't exist to put cabs in their place Just what comes to mind.

The best thing was that social media was not monopolized and manipulated like it is today,no tracking or spyware,no micro transactions in games, and Windows was actually good. It started to die in 2010~2011 - I mean how many people surfed facebook and had smartphones in 2009? - not many. YES YES YES AND YES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 26, 2020 I dunno. I wasn't alive to experience the 80s and the 90s, but I was alive to experience the remnants of it and the first things to come out of the new millennium (DSL, early infotainments in cars, etc.). Needless to say, there's a lot of good that's come out of the modern age... but at the same time, it does seem like some things have gotten worse, predominately with political manners which I won't go into because I know I'll just get called a Nazi for it. I will say this: cars have gotten more reliable since the 70s and 80s. You'd be hard fucking pressed to find a 70s car that didn't feel exhausted after going 100k miles. My car's got 180k and it still feels relatively solid. Check out my guide on how to scan cover art here! Local asshole and 6th generation console enthusiast.

Agreed - I remember when we first upgraded to broadband, and it was DSL around 2 Mbps (this was circa 2001). Yes, it's god-tier compared to Dial-up. 18 hours ago, Mooshi said: Calling adds unnecessary pressure if you're undecisive. Using an app spares someone from that. To add to this - it's also massively more convenient to order takeout via a well designed web order mechanism, compared to calling them and talking to them in person. Not just more convenient for the end user, but also for the restaurant. Consider that when you call a Pizza joint, someone has to stop doing whatever it was they were doing (making pizzas) and take your order. This not only slows down the order they're currently working on, but your order too. It also makes it far easier to customize the pizza exactly the way you want, with exactly the toppings you want, and even easily do things like add extra sauce, or cook the pizza well done, etc. Then, on top of that, you can even track the order progress, from them building the pizza, to the cook stage, to out for delivery etc - and some pizza joints even have GPS tracking for the delivery. Online ordering has been nothing but good for takeout restaurants. The social aspect is simply a side benefit (eg: my fiancée hates talking on the phone with strangers, and hates ordering food over the phone). 18 hours ago, Mooshi said: Yes, walk to places like an airport. Public transportation doesn't go everywhere. That's an interesting (and odd) point. Some cities have public transit to the airport, but not every city.

No. It's not. This is one of those examples of you talking about something you haven't experienced. I grew up in the 80's and 90's.

And of course, that's the theoretical top speed. Realistically you never got that speed. Having downloads run at 3-4 KB/s was common. By comparison, a 2 Mbps connection can download at speeds of 250 KB/s. THAT'S LITERALLY 35 TIMES FASTER. Shitty, slow, 1-2 Mbps broadband, was ungodly fast compared to Dial-up. Period.

To have an internet connection so fast that you didn't have to wait for a webpage to load back then WAS ungodly fast, quite incredible at the time.

When I was a kid and we first got any kind of connectivity at home, I was connecting to BBSes on a 286 with a 9600 baud modem. Sometimes it connected below 9600 speeds. It was fine when the most you'd do was play a BBS game, but suffice it to say we upgraded modems as soon as possible even before we had home internet.

Before tourism, VAT was 27% now, it's still 27%, so yeah not really a good thing.
