Growing up in the 90s I'm thinking about how there's people around today for whom the 90s might as well be WW2 for how remote it was since they were born later.

Makes me think about the 80s and what TV must have been like back then and it makes me wonder about what kind of media they consumed back in that remote past. Was the food any good? I suspect not based on the wall mounted can openers found in every kitchen that was remodeled in the 80s.

Did they have good video games in the 80s? Were arcades real or just something they made up in movies?

(Timestamp is 7:14.) Look at that kid's reaction to seeing a CRT TV. This is probably his first time seeing one, and it may be his last. He will probably forget about it, and then 10 years later randomly remember and have to ask himself if it was a dream. "Was it an OLED?" he may ask himself, "or maybe a projector?" The memory will pass and he will go on with his day. Think back on how many hours of your life you spent watching CRT displays. Think about how the children of today will spend 0. :corsair:

This documentary should explain it all, they were real, and fabulous. Here we see a daily occurence, the Alphas fighting for dominance over Satan's Hollow.

Growing up in the mid 90s arcades is something I just saw in movies. An amusement park might have one but it was practically 80s cosplay at that point and the machines were too expensive to play for longer than maybe an hour.

Pretty sure the 80s arcade machines made the rounds in various restaurants and cafés in the 90s for the remainder of their life because any random café my grandmother took me to could have a row of 3 or 5. I never really played them because they were relatively expensive. So I just watched the demo screens as the games played themselves and I still know a few of those game demos by heart.

You know that part of your brain that let's you go "oh whoops" when you realize you made a mistake? Brain worms eat that part of the brain first, so chuds can only default to either "well technically you cant prove me wrong because (nonsense mental gymnastics)", "I was pretending to be wrong! I trolled you!" or just full on meltdown
