@fungo6631

Eh, these cheapo ones aren't that amazing. Questionable sensitivity and selectivity are the norm. Analog tuned ones tend to be particularly bad and are often plagued by frequency drift. This seems to be mostly the newer ones, it seems like the more vintage ones from the 70s and 80s are less problematic in that regard. If you want something amazing, almost any TEF6686 based radio will do the job. And also more expensive radios from brands like Tecsun and Sangean. Admittedly, the battery life on the higher end ones can be somewhat questionable compared to the crappier ones, but you do get better filtering on bands like shortwave and more stable tuning.

you are wrong about fast typing for qwerty - it is oposite! Typewriters had so much mistakes so comon letters was separated and people typed slower. There is layouts like dvorak for fast typing but qwerty is oposite.
QWERTY was designed to be as slow as possible, because original type writers would break if inputs were made too fast, not what was said at 0:59

I have grandkids that are younger than 19 and they know what cds are. DVDs too.
I never knew CDs and DVDs are actually considered extinct. I love them and I have a whole CD collection in my house. I would always buy music albums on CD. Yes, streaming exists now but I think having a physical copy of it is much more satisfying. This applies to DVDs as well. I don’t use DVD much but I also think it’s much more satisfying to have a physical copy of my favourite movie. Most of my friends agrees with me so I never knew about it being considered outdated.
The irony is how sometimes there’s need, use or want for some of these things still. I actually have been searching for a portable DVD/bluray with a screen for work. I sit in a place with no wifi, and although I can just use my unlimited phone/ipad data, I have movies on disk that I’d love to rewatch during my endless free time! They still exist but it’s the weirdest market now.
Amazing video bro 😎🥶
I'm not even an adult yet and I actually had a leapfrog. Although I didn't play it as much as another educational handheld I had, the V-Smile Pocket. Maybe because I had something like 13 games for the vsmile and only 2 games for the leapfrog, aside from a 3rd game and drawing program preinstalled on the leapfrog. Although I also had other Leapfrog products, including this interesting book think, where you put a booklet and matching cartridge inside and tapped on different parts of the page with a pen to interact with it. I also had this system called the Clickstart, which although was marketed as a PC for little kids with its keyboard, definitely fits the criteria for a game console, even if it was educational. Fun fact: The clickstart was also the closest I've ever come to a full console library, as I owned 8 of the system's 13 games. Although we gave it away a few years ago.

With DVDs and CDs I put all of that media on players or my tablet or cards at SD cards so I can wash them elsewhere but you still need the physical media just in case your copy gets ruined. If you have a streaming service, you might see a movie you like, but it may go away or it will go away, so that’s why you keep the physical media and you can keep making copies of all your media that’s music and video, they won’t go away for a while

when cd and dvd and vinyls need a comeback
I collect CDs and can understand how they may be considered obsolete. They first came out in 1982 and there are much more compact ways to store music now, such as micro SD cards. In fact, I have FLAC rips of my whole collection on a single 512 GB card and mostly just use the CDs as a phsical representation and backup of it. However, in terms of audio quality, CDs still hold up perfectly, as they use lossless 16 bit 44.1 kHz audio. Most music streaming uses either that or a lossy version of it.
I am 15, and i not only remember all that(like VHS, Hi8, DVD,CD) but i used it all, even diskettes, maybe because i live in not so rich country, and vhs were sold there till 2015

The first screen should say mp3 player not iPod because their many other mp3 players besides the iPod. Apple did not invent the mp3 player, so stop focusing on Apple as if they are the only one

Imo Dankpod viewers are the only ppl keeping the iPod alive.
I still use MP3 players (iPod), Nintendo DSi, and a recently acquired flip phone. Those days were better
