I grew up throughout the 80’s and 90’s, and I miss these times. It was all so exciting practically on a daily basis. Today, nothing “wows” us anymore. You can’t really get much higher resolution than 8K or 16K TV, and even if you could, the human eye could barely distinguish it from 4K. Cell phones you can go so much with that we don’t even use it all now, and you can communicate with anyone around the world at no extra charge. Things like music and movies are available instantly, from at home to in our pockets on smartphones, and in HD with uncompressed audio. You can order products from companies like Amazon laying in bed off an app on your phone, even speaking in the order if you want, and it could be at your door in 2-3 hours. What else is there? It’s become kind of depressing to me, as a person who grew up constantly being “wowed”. Today nothing seems exciting to me anymore.

There is still much to discover, such as new drugs, cures for diseases that at the moment are impossible to cure, sending probes into space much faster than the current ones, exploring 100% of the oceans (we have only explored 5%), creating efficient and commercial nuclear fusion reactors, clean up pollution in the world. There are many things to discover and invent but all in good time, this is what excites me about the future.

This is exactly spot on. I had my Palms, and I would download to it the latest from Engadget and all the tech news sites I could, and read it wherever I wanted. Before that AOL and Compuserve opened up the whole world! It was so exciting! There were many years of thrills. Now it doesn’t even matter what phone or computer you have. They are relatively all the same as far as what you can do. I know there will still be big things and of course it moves forward, but there will probably be nothing exactly like that era of amazement and anticipation again! We were the ones who got to transition from being confined to what was going on locally, to holding the world in the palms of our hands!

Exactly. 1964 was a completely different world from 1994. 1994 is very different from 2024, but a lot of the tech we use today was either already being used in its early stages by early adopters or was in development. A lot of the elements for modern portable networked computing with PDA's and palmtops would give way to the modern smartphones we use today. I feel like over the last 30 years, we've done more "refining" in our technology than any actual marvel breakthroughs.

Speaking of smartphones, i worked in repairing mobile phones in the 90´s and one of the early smartphones were the Nokia 9000 communicator from 1996 which i saw at the repairshop since we were an authorized repairshop for Nokia.

No kidding. Finding a compact smartphone with decent specs is so hard these days. I don't know what I will do once my Samsung Galaxy S10e gets too old to daily drive. It is one of the most compact smartphones with decent specs and even it feels a bit big to me at times. Everything newer is much heavier and chunkier. People will say ohhh but the newer devices have 3+ cameras, 5G cellular, bigger screens, etc. I on the other hand, am more than happy with 4G connectivity, 2 cameras, a headphone jack, microSD card slot and a device that actually fits in my pocket. The specs on my galaxy s10e are incredible. 256GB of storage, 8GB ram, 4k video recording, cpu performance that matches at least an ivy bridge core i5, usb 3.0 type C port with displayport output, and all of that fits in my pocket. What more could I want out of a mobile device?

I was 14 when this report was made, and this plus all the video game mags I read made it seem like the future that everyone predicted for me was coming true. Then I grew up and realized after the weight of the world crushed my spirit that it was all a dystopian nightmare and that we have become shackled to technology, rather than it setting us free. I wanted so hard for computing tech to realize this egalitarian future where there was no poverty or greed or isolation, but there's more of that than there's ever been, 30 years hence.

Everything that got inside the smartphone was a revolution in itself. They didn't have mp3-players, digital cameras, digital video recorders, flat screen touch displays that can show 4k, the GPS navigation etc. Nothing of this existed in 1994 as a mass consumer product. Besides that we also have all interactive Web pages where you can do stuff and just ism't a static page. Things like ordering online, google maps, wikipedia. Online Streaming of videos, podcasts, The social medias etc. Insane 3D-accelerated games with virtual worlds that looks close to real. Also Self driving cars, 7:2 ATMOS surround audio systems, extremely big flat screen TV:s that displays 4k (or even 8k). The list goes on and on.

Being exposed to this new thing called the ‘internet’ was undoubtedly mind-blowing. In ‘95-‘96, I connected to AOL for the first and instantly became addicted. It completely changed the orientation of how we lived life. Record shops slowly faded away, comic shops, lots of brick-and-mortar businesses gone. The entire acceleration of technology since then made life easier (which was great), but also created a culture of overt convenience, and a lot of us became lazy. Creativity music wise isn’t the same. A lot of records that we cherish today wouldn’t have been made during the height of technology and smartphones. I personally the struggle prior to the internet - life was more meaningful, but I can’t deny that ‘good’ came with the internet. For example, the logistics of supply and demand, getting groceries delivered for the disabled, contacting 911 and having the police/emergency locating you via GPS. I’m sure there’s dozens and dozens of pros, but all in all I wish it hadn’t accelerated as fast as it did.

I've been working in IT, since 1995. I never , ever programmed a VCR.

Remember VCR+? You put the code in with the remote and it new when to start recording to tape, so you didn't have to manually figure out when to set the timer for when your show started. Ah Nostalgia.

The hubris in the 90s about technology was some Next Level 1950s stuff. “Sure… you’ve seen cellular phones… but did you ever think phones would get this small?”… obviously Zoolander hadn’t come out yet.

I love how they used the SGI Onyx for the VR headset... probably because no other computer at the time had powerful enough 3D acceleration, which was obviously required for it.

Playing a movie clip at that time was a big deal, as computers weren't able to play full movies yet, maybe a year later with the release of Win 95.

Wasn't uncommon for such programs to do seemingly pointless things like that. Hell, I remember a Comcast OnDemand original video from around early 2006 talking about the next gen video game consoles(Xbox 360 that was already out, PS3, and Nintendo Revolution) and it started with some guy playing GameCube before he shrugged his shoulders proclaiming "Ah, I lost" and turning to talk to the camera. Except what was playing on the TV was the opening cutscene to Metroid Prime, the one where Samus jumps out of her ship.

I want to go back to 1994 with a friend and, at a coffee shop or restaurant say something like: "I saw on KZbin that Rihanna's Instagram has like 40 million followers. People were talking about it on Facebook. Does this place have a QR code for the menu? *flagging a server* Sir/Ma'am, what's the wifi network here? My 5G isn't connecting."
