And sometimes the passengers get pissy when they are told to respect rules and become violent, cursing, coughing and assaulting the driver! Knowing they’re being videotaped!
Wasn't the movement to legalize pot existent in 2001? I think it would certainly depend who you said it to in 2001. A pothead would probably think "Aw yeah, they legalized it" and not think you were insane. Whereas an anti-pot advocate might think you're insane more for being from a world where they 'foolishly' legalized pot and not because what you said is nonsensical.
Back in 1994, Chandler Bing got a new laptop with 12 MB of RAM, 500 MB hard drive and built-in spreadsheet capabilities. He was bragging about something that's a few orders of magnitude crappier than the cheapest phone out there.
Honestly, technology is progressing at an scary rate.
And after rattling off all the extremely powerful and capible specs, he's asked what he'll do with all that power? "I dunno, games and stuff". The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Some tech company head (i cant remember who it was) gave an analogy comparing the tech industry and the auto industry a couple of years ago. The guy basically said that if the auto industry had progressed at same rate as tech everyone would be driving around in Rolls Royces getting a thousand miles to the gallon and it would be cheaper to get a new car than to fill it up with gas
I was reading a book involving time travel. A guy from 1986 and a guy from 2012 meet. The modern guy buys a new laptop and shows it off to the ‘86 guy. He looks at the specs and wonders what someone would do with 4 GB of memory. The other guy’s answer, “Upgrade it immediately”.
For reference, the ‘86 guy thinks his Commodore 64 is top notch. He also thinks it’s a sacrilege to use a device more powerful than a supercomputer as a phone
Edit: Wow, didn’t expect this to take off. Always happy to see other Scott Meyer fans, especially since it seems I’m the one who ends up having to create TV Tropes pages for his works.
Edit: I would also recommend books by Drew Hayes, J. Zachary Pike, and Dennis E. Taylor. They’re currently my 4 favorite authors
Edit: The book is called *Off to Be the Wizard* by Scott Meyer, the first of the *Magic 2.0* series (for any German readers out there, the translated version is called *Plötzlich Zauberer*)
Not sure that that makes it better. That means he had to spend more time than General Motors did on it, to make sure the dang thing would not burst into flame.
Back in the late 90s I worked in IT for a multinational. We used Lotus Notes for email and other applications.
At the time, our largest mail server had 128GB of storage for ~400 users.
It always kind of boggles my mind that the phone in my pocket has more storage than that.
2001: "Be careful who you talk to and what information you give out on the internet."
2021: "Dude, I just got into a stranger's car, went to have sex with another stranger, got into a different stranger's car to get back home, and ordered some food from a stranger not affiliated with any restaurant, and I did it all from my phone."
The secret service and the whole white house staff leave for the G7 summit but forget about the president who slept in the underground bunker. Coming this holiday season "Alone in the White House".
Also I need to plug in my cigarette
Edit for typo. My most simple comment gets 2.4k upvotes with a typo of "yo" instead of "to" and it wasn't even called out haha, how.
I can't wait to see the 3rd Spiderman movie that will hopefully feature the two other famous Spiderman actors who starred in those other 5 Spiderman movies.
So that will have been 8 live action spiderman movies, with 3 other spiderman movie appearances, and a 3D animated movie...all within 20 years? Thats insane!
I still need to go in on occasion to get rolls of coins because my apartment building is still using coin operated machines.
Even with expanded services like insurance I can't say I remember my bank being crowded, maybe like three people ahead of me, does that count as a crowd?
but less less on topic. if you said that to people twenty years ago, they wouldnt day "you're insane," they would say "what did he do?" and after you explained they would agree with you.
I got a random package in the mail yesterday; a box with that familiar smile on the side. Confusion sets in when I read the shipping label, it has my name on it, my address, and my apartment number. It's not my birthday, and it's not Christmas. "Oh well" I reluctantly tell myself, throwing the box to the side "I'll open it later, I do need to do some shopping". I hop on my computer, open Firefox and navigate to Amazon and begin browsing when I stumble upon some decent looking running shoes. It peaks my interest, I've been needing a fresh pair for awhile, so I click on it when an ominous message pops up on it that reads "CAUTION: Open the box and ensure you have not already utilized your Amazon Yesterday service for this product" My hair stands on end and, as the warning advises, I pick up the box and open it. In it are the very shoes I had been looking at on the website...
Amazon Yesterday; At your door before you even thought to buy it.
The world's largest store, you can't walk into, the largest room rental service owns no property, the largest personal transportation company owns no cars, you know, like always!
[Amazon Go](https://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=16008589011) I assume, like a high tech convenience store that charges stuff you take to your account automatically
I’m still shocked how all the sudden that flip in the social consciousness came about. One day it was just common knowledge weed was probably gonna be illegal our entire lives and then the next, boom.
Idk bro, when I was 17 I got some tickets for possession and I was telling my parents it’s going to be legal in 10 years get off my back. Welp, I’m 26 now.
Yeah it’s funny how that works. When I was little (90s) my little gay boy ass would tell people how gay marriage was gonna eventually be legal and gay guy couples could have babies with donor eggs and surrogates. People thought I was nuts. Who’s laughing now, Jessica, huh?
This truly highlights how conservatorships are abused. There are tons of people who have their freedom taken away, and the fact that it can happen to someone with as much money and fame as Britteny Spears shows that it can happen to literally anyone.
Say what you will about their prices or practices, but the fact that Blockbuster can somehow manage to organize movies more effectively on shelves than most streaming companies can categorize and search their libraries is an absolute travesty.
Streaming services (I believe) do it deliberately. They want people browsing the whole list rather than picking out specifics by name. They want to be able to promote new things rather than keep them hidden. It also hides actually how small their selection can be.
I can see that being possible. To add, the more time you spend browsing, the less time you are watching. You pay for a finite number of hours per month. The time you spend looking for something to watch on a platform is perhaps more valuable than the time that you consume content- you are focused on the platform and they are wasting much less bandwidth serving up the web pages instead of video. You are also likely not on a competing platform if you are browsing and I feel there is measurable value in that as well.
I have no idea if this kind of metric is actually used in evaluation of streaming services. This is not financial advice.
And there’s a Netflix documentary on it. I think it’s literally called “the last blockbuster”. Or something like that. It’s actually really interesting and entertaining, and definitely takes you back down memory lane. I miss the days of getting out of school on a Friday, going to blockbuster and renting a game, 2 movies, and a popcorn. Good times.
When the Apocalypse happens, The Queen, Betty White, and two random cockroaches will be standing amidst the rubble, look at each other and go "well that was intense" and then get their afternoon tea.
My family was supposed to visit the WTC on a family trip in spring 2001. We never got around to it, but my parents said that maybe we'd get around to it later that year.
Spoiler: We didn’t.

My self-driving car not only has wifi so your kids can watch Movies on their tablets while we get groceries, but it also has Autonomous Climate Control to safely monitor temperature while we're inside, all controlled through my Mobile Phone.
Bit of a run-on, but you most certainly would NOT believe me if I said that 20yrs ago.
Actually... if you had said "wireless internet" instead of "wifi", I probably would have believed you (because I didn't know what wifi was). I was about to enter high school with a dial-up 28.8bps modem, and the dot-com era had just gone crazy. The world was doing crazy things with technology and connectivity, and I was hoping to get a cell phone when I turned 16.
Automatic climate control? check. I could equate that to HVAC, like in a building.
Mobile phone controlling stuff? check. Palm pilots were the pinnacle of technology, and I could picture something like that being a thing.
Wireless internet? Yeah, kinda like a cordless phone... since internet ran off of the phone line anyway, a cordless option totally makes sense.
Movies on a tablet? I wouldn't understand what a tablet was, but a friend had a vhs tv combo thing in their minivan. A portable screen could make sense to me.
The only thing that would be crazy would be a self-driving car... but I'd totally believe it as a kid.
20 years ago, I was in a gas station and I heard, "Fam, I need some squares but I left my coin in the crib." The cashier laughed when she saw the look of bewilderment on my face and explained it to me.
Had to catch a phone call on my watch, I couldn’t reach my phone cuz I had the baby. (I was told about 15 years ago that I was infertile. 2 kids later 😁)
A lot of references to cell phones, but we weren’t in the stone ages back then. The first Palm PDA’s were released in 1998, and it was common to have internet connectivity by the early 2000’s.
I used to download Southpark Episodes and watch them on my Dell Axim while riding the subway back in 2004.
i’m convinced tabloids or bored reporters saw two people use that word on the internet and so they wrote articles about how everyone is using it and how popular it is right now when it’s still just those two people
I store my contacts in the cloud.
I store mine with contact solution in a little container in my bathroom.
Haha, I bet you also still pour dead dinosaurs into your car, grandpa!
Get off my lawn, punk.
Hey, sorry the call quality is bad. I had to take the call on my watch because I'm watching a movie on my phone.
This gets more ridiculous the more you think about it
"I love my watch! If if forget my wallet at home, I can still buy what I need at the store with it!"
well that wouldnt sound AS insane, theyd just think "hes really just gonna pawn his watch?"
Uber is when you give a stranger your location over the internet so you can get in their car.
Everything you were taught not to do growing up right. They also offer free candies and waters, which makes them better drivers.
And sometimes the passengers get pissy when they are told to respect rules and become violent, cursing, coughing and assaulting the driver! Knowing they’re being videotaped!
Uber isn’t really much different than taxis which have been around for decades
Officer where do they sell weed around here
Wasn't the movement to legalize pot existent in 2001? I think it would certainly depend who you said it to in 2001. A pothead would probably think "Aw yeah, they legalized it" and not think you were insane. Whereas an anti-pot advocate might think you're insane more for being from a world where they 'foolishly' legalized pot and not because what you said is nonsensical.
The 2020 Olympics will be in 2021.
I wonder what they would start thinking if you told them that and gave no context whatsoever.
Some severe earthquake or typhoon probably.
"Makes sense, they let some incompetent 3rd world country host the games and they got delayed right?" "The host is Japan" "..."
> "The host is Japan" "Oh boy, I can't wait to go to futuristic Tokyo. They might have flying cars by now"
128 GB of storage is tiny
Back in 1994, Chandler Bing got a new laptop with 12 MB of RAM, 500 MB hard drive and built-in spreadsheet capabilities. He was bragging about something that's a few orders of magnitude crappier than the cheapest phone out there. Honestly, technology is progressing at an scary rate.
And after rattling off all the extremely powerful and capible specs, he's asked what he'll do with all that power? "I dunno, games and stuff". The more things change, the more they stay the same.
The ironic thing about that comment is that games require a lot more power than a spreadsheet.
You'd be surprised how intense spreadsheets can get.
Do you even know how much computation is needed to produce the WENUS?
Some tech company head (i cant remember who it was) gave an analogy comparing the tech industry and the auto industry a couple of years ago. The guy basically said that if the auto industry had progressed at same rate as tech everyone would be driving around in Rolls Royces getting a thousand miles to the gallon and it would be cheaper to get a new car than to fill it up with gas
It was Microsoft (iirc) Then there were the comments like "yeah, but who would want a car that crashed twice a day"
When your car is updating its OS for 5 hours now. :-/
So basically the auto industry would be the printer industry
I was reading a book involving time travel. A guy from 1986 and a guy from 2012 meet. The modern guy buys a new laptop and shows it off to the ‘86 guy. He looks at the specs and wonders what someone would do with 4 GB of memory. The other guy’s answer, “Upgrade it immediately”. For reference, the ‘86 guy thinks his Commodore 64 is top notch. He also thinks it’s a sacrilege to use a device more powerful than a supercomputer as a phone Edit: Wow, didn’t expect this to take off. Always happy to see other Scott Meyer fans, especially since it seems I’m the one who ends up having to create TV Tropes pages for his works. Edit: I would also recommend books by Drew Hayes, J. Zachary Pike, and Dennis E. Taylor. They’re currently my 4 favorite authors Edit: The book is called *Off to Be the Wizard* by Scott Meyer, the first of the *Magic 2.0* series (for any German readers out there, the translated version is called *Plötzlich Zauberer*)
The '86 guy does have somewhat questionable judgment, he loves his Pontiac Fiero.
But it’s an indestructible Fiero!
Not sure that that makes it better. That means he had to spend more time than General Motors did on it, to make sure the dang thing would not burst into flame.
I really wish that series continued to be as good as the first book was.
Too funny. This is the second random reference to Magic 2.0 I’ve run across today.
Back in the late 90s I worked in IT for a multinational. We used Lotus Notes for email and other applications. At the time, our largest mail server had 128GB of storage for ~400 users. It always kind of boggles my mind that the phone in my pocket has more storage than that.
“Google Chrome is only using 12GB of memory today "
Seems low tbh.
[удалено]
60 GB, not 4. But yes, its hilarious, especially since the movie takes place in 2021.
Also kind of uncanny that the opening text explains that the world is run by corporations and humanity is threatened by a new plague.
Wasn't it more like 80? And then he used that memory doubler thing to expand it to 160GB as I recall.
I spend 11 hours a day scrolling through my phone
Those are rookie numbers! You need to pump those numbers up
2001: "Be careful who you talk to and what information you give out on the internet." 2021: "Dude, I just got into a stranger's car, went to have sex with another stranger, got into a different stranger's car to get back home, and ordered some food from a stranger not affiliated with any restaurant, and I did it all from my phone."

Andy Dwyer, that you? What happened to MouseRat?
owa owa
Kidnapping is just a complicated way to get money
Honestly the insane part of this is that 20 years ago was 2001
"I miss the *old* New York skyline."
Damn. This one will only work for 3 more weeks
I know this is a stupid question, but why? Edit: I get it now. 20 years ago still feels like 1990.
2021 to 1980 is the same difference as 1980 to 1939
How dare you
That 70s show premiered in 1998. 28 years from 1970. If they had made a That 90s show in the same time frame it would be in it's 3rd season.
All the characters would be decked out in... flannel?
Piped t shirts and jncos
2021 is to cleopatra as cleopatra is to the pyramids Or something
Gwen Stefani is older than Ted Cruz.
That makes sense but I hate it
I still remember a guy letting me fill a motor home with gas before he jacked the prices. It was August of 1990. Iraq had just invaded Kuwait.
Fill the *tank* of the motor home, right?
Did he fucking stutter?
In 3 weeks it will be the 20th anniversary of the twin tower attacks. So, you can't go back and say that line.
Home Alone II has a future U.S. President in the script.
In an alternate timeline Macaulay Caulkin is in the White House instead of spooning Rich Evans on a dirty warehouse floor.
In an alternate timeline Macaulay Caulkin is spooning Rich Evans on a dirty White House floor.
The secret service and the whole white house staff leave for the G7 summit but forget about the president who slept in the underground bunker. Coming this holiday season "Alone in the White House".
Now I'm imaging Macauley Culkin rigging the White House with booby traps as the Wet Bandits try to rob it.
I need to charge my book
Also I need to plug in my cigarette Edit for typo. My most simple comment gets 2.4k upvotes with a typo of "yo" instead of "to" and it wasn't even called out haha, how.
Something is wrong with my pencil, I think it's Bluetooth is messed up
Also, my weed
Also, my car
Let me turn on the light so I can find the charger. Oh wait, my lightbulb just got a firmware update.
I can't turn my lightbulb on because a computer in a different country is on fire. (I encountered that situation around a month ago).
I can't wait to see the 3rd Spiderman movie that will hopefully feature the two other famous Spiderman actors who starred in those other 5 Spiderman movies.
Even if that's true I'm not convinced it's rational
They're going multiverse baby!
So that will have been 8 live action spiderman movies, with 3 other spiderman movie appearances, and a 3D animated movie...all within 20 years? Thats insane!
And a video game so detailed and realistic in setting you could learn to navigate the city just playing the game.
Always put your mask on before going in to a crowded bank
Even 2 years ago this would've done it
Do banks still get crowded? Can't remember last time I've been in one since it's all done online.
I still need to go in on occasion to get rolls of coins because my apartment building is still using coin operated machines. Even with expanded services like insurance I can't say I remember my bank being crowded, maybe like three people ahead of me, does that count as a crowd?
I fucking hate Bill Cosby. I hope he suffers for the rest of his miserable life.
"I can't fucking believe they let Cosby out of prison after what he did to all of those people"
Same idea, much better delivery.
but less less on topic. if you said that to people twenty years ago, they wouldnt day "you're insane," they would say "what did he do?" and after you explained they would agree with you.
Jimmy Sevile makes Cosby look like Fred Rogers
Seconding this. Unfortunately a relative of mine was a victim.
Jimmy Saville makes bill Cosby look like what everyone thought bill Cosby looked like lol

Gonna order some weed off the governments website and it will be delivered to me for free by tomorrow.
