Retro Tech: Hyperconnectivity

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 เม.ย. 2021
- How did we all get so hyperconnected? I’m taking a look at where it all started - the simple phone - and how things developed. How we went from answering machines to AOL messenger to Facetime. But I’m also taking a look at where it’s all going; and I’m looking at tech that will one day allow us to communicate telepathically.

Love Chuck Nice, and they were great together.

Watching Marques trying to close a cassette voicemail machine is classic 😅

This series is basically an excuse for Marques to low key telling everyone that he's still young imo
I guess I'm not the only one who noticed
...and conversely make people like me feel damn old!!
He's making me feel old from this, and I'm in my early twenties.... 🤔 I had dial up until I was nine, I think.
He's not THAT young, though. How come he doesn't know how the old tech works? It's like answering machines and instant messaging are some alien tech for him. He's the same age as my brother and we grew up in the 90s and early 2000s with chatting with friends. Sara is even younger than him and she knows all the IM tricks. We annoyed our friends with buzzing them on Yahoo! Messenger and spamming random crap in their IM window, in Comic Sans and rainbow colour, plus animated stickers. Marques is like: "How's the weather." Are you kidding me?
@@etnevel.naitzsirk yeah I refuse to believe he didn't even at least have MSN chat
I remember covering the modem with pillows to suppress the loud crazy ass sounds whenever i connect to the internet 3am in the morning in order to save myself from my parents ass whooping. Felt like a ninja everytime🥷🏻

the funny part of this series is that being from Brazil, here in the 80's, 90's we were really far and isolated from the US innovation, so we didn't have any of these things, having a phone line was like having a car
Às vezes, mais caro que um carro. 😂
People are trying to get rid of their car here haha it's useless if city planning is doing things correctly with public transport 🌈
Exactly what I was thinking watching this as someone from Nigeria. We had Yahoo Messenger though, I guess most parts of the world at least had that.

I was born in 1955. This video was so fun. When Marques was putting the tapes into the answering machines I laughed out loud. The call forwarding was so "advanced".
When Marques typed " How's the weather?" I felt that.

Lol ever heard of forced obsolescence? The next 40 years are going to be very stagnated as the world's tech industry keeps on getting monopolized + the expansion of the human population in a capitalist structure. It's foolish to think humans will become a super advanced species, our greed will never allow that.
When i saw ReactOS being used for AIM i just about spit my coffee out of my nose.
I love how he sits in a sweet spot of age for these kinda videos. It makes it pretty amusing. He's old enough to have a pretty good idea of what he's looking at, maybe when he was young some of these things were around but being phased out. He's still young enough though that he still has to figure them out on the fly. I'm 36, and I'd say around that age is right there in that transition period from analog to digital life styles. We made calls on rotary phones because that's what some of our family or we had in our homes. We are pre internet, but still grew up with it. We lived in the time where change was novel and interesting, and lived through the shift of it becoming expected and normal. He's right on the other side of that shift where it's fun to see his reactions. I played a demo Virtual Boy in Sears when it was new, and remember thinking it was just the dumbest thing ever spend money on. It's kinda cool in retrospect regarding it's place in history, but man in the time it was bad.
Something to be said about a tech “expert” stumbling over stuff that was second nature to us older people. Love these shows.
Is it just me who loves this series also props to MKBHD for doing new vids everyday LOVE THEM
These are pre recorded lmao
@@shashankiyer5751 Everyone knows
sameeee
there really aren't many of the premium shows I'll even bother with. This is a rare exception. I'd still much rather see my premium money going more evenly to other creators and forget about these highly produced mini series.
I know, this series is awesome. Each episode is fun and interesting. It reminds me why i love tech.
i'm from Zimbabwe and i can confirm i had a collection AOL CDs on my desk growing up
That's a lot of CDs
@Margues Brownlee you tricked me for 1 second
I never thought I'd see a fellow Zimbo in this comment section.
“Omg I’ve got my wife on my phone” Chuck your the funnies thing I’ve heard this year 😭
Answering machines. One of the best features they ever put on the answering machine was the "toll saver". The feature before this was the ability to check messages remotely. You'd call your own number, enter a passcode, and then you could hear your recent messages. But if you were on a trip, that meant spending money on a long distance call to check messages.
With toll saver, the answering machine would pick up after 4 rings when there were no messages, but 2 rings if there were new messages.
So if it rang 3 times you hang up and don't pay for a long distance call.
Picture phone.
I was a kid back in 1973 and we went on a field trip to the Buhl Planetarium in Pittsburgh. They had the coolest science stuff there, and a really awesome miniature train room.
In 1973 they had a picture phone. The screen was tiny, and in grainy black and white, but it worked. They had one here and another over there. I could make faces with my classmates over a real picture phone like on The Jetsons (only nowhere near as cool). The sound wasn't hooked up but they were going to fix that next week.
Also, by 1975, every house in the country will have picture phones! So how cool is that?
Needless to say, the 1975 thing never happened.
I love what retro tech has become.

Chuck is the best guest so far by a mile, its not even close!
Wow! I remember using AOL on dialup and now I'm doing graduate school on Zoom meeting with professors, students, and admin.
This is actually the only TH-cam Originals I like
The only season 2 better than season 1
Come on! The first two seasons of Cobra Kai were fucking AWESOME!!!
Marques: whats AOL
Me born after him: whats a landline lol
Wow. This editing is so next level. Congrats Marques! Thanks to bringing us real quality!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥the amount of production level and the work put in this series is unbelievable, netflix show level if you ask me
Who else just rewatches these episodes because they are so well made?
Uk i was just about to comment asking these people to stop uploading in short intervals of time... But agreed👍
@Margues Brownlee you are not the real one 😔😔
Watching these episodes over again bc i cant sleep 🙈, yeah you caught me :P
Edit: and yeah, theyre really so well made :)
That girl doesn't realise that Marqus is representing almost the entire male population when he's chating. Almost every boy would respond like that when he's talking to girl face to face, on a chat.

lol yea i would say that too cuz ima guy
@@FatmaYousuf Girls doesn't really knows boys feelings. That's an undeniable truth.

Haha he's too expensive 🌈
I just love this guy. My favorite channel for sure. Keep making the best videos on TH-cam.
2:16 This recording is definite proof that every audio recorded on old devices has the same person's sound
Marques immediately became a posh old man when he spoke into that tape
I thought it was just me!
The thing I'm most impressed by is the fact that AIM looks to be running under ReactOS on native hardware... Some prep guy went to a LOT of work lol
I was also wondering how they got that up and running!
I was looking for this comment
It's probably just a virtual machine through some sort of KVM though.
Never thought I'd get emotional watching a Marques Brownlee video but I was an answering machine technician in the 80's (yes, they were a big deal back then, especially for small businesses). The PhoneMate was one of the machines I repaired, usually OGM issues. We always got a lot of machines after a lightening storm which was always a good day for my boss. We also imported and serviced one-piece, cordless, and antique phones. My boss had this idea that phones were the future. However, before the future arrived, he sold the company. Guy always had good ideas but bad timing.
These series really make me appreciate how much we've accomplished so far.. And makes me think of how far we are yet to reach in like... 20 years from now.. Amazing
Im in love in this series mabye my fav on youtube. Its just so entertaining
Yeah me to! I really hope he will make season 3" after this to.
@@Johanneslol11 ye me too
i'm in early 20's and seeing how much tech has changed through out my my life so far is mind-blowing to say the least. WE FREAKING HAVE DIGITAL CURRENCIES NOW!! I can't wrap my head on what the future holds. 20 years from now, things we deem impossible might come to fruiting like Quantum Computing, neural link, outer space colonization.... i just hope i'll be there!
We already have quantum computing.
@@robertvoss7719 yeah we do, but the whole quantum computing concept is still esoteric. I'd look to love to see how the whole concept is going to received and used by the masses. The possibilities are endless....
@@Dipole__ I don't know that it would ever be used by the masses in an everyday use scenario because most people won't be able to make use of their full power.
@@robertvoss7719 In R&D stage.
I really enjoy what you are doing here. Looking forward sometimes means looking at the past. These videos you have allow us to do that. To answer your question.... we still haven't arrived and we have alot of work still to do on so many levels.
Aww the AOL. I used to run to blockbuster to get my cd roms to get on the chats. Yes mom used to get mad at us for blocking the signal (she couldnt call home and check on us lol). And the answering machine was epic back then. I used to hate when someone would be like ill call you from 8am to 5pm WTF and you had to sit there all day waiting, but having the answering machine you knew if they called and to just call them back. Memories. ❤
I'm just binge watching the entire series again
me too
You have Premium? Oddly episode 2 is Premium, the rest are Free so I can't watch episodes 2 😢. I'd pay but for one episode?
@@bradavon episode 3 is teleportation, no?
@@dj5449 robots. There's no episode on teleportation yet. It's the wearables one that's behind a pay wall. It must be a mistake as the other episodes in series 2 aren't.
@@bradavon the one before robots, think it came out on Wednesday is on teleportation, just check on his channel.. n yes I saw the one on wearables is behind a paywall, which makes no sense
I remember erasing the messages off the machine tapes when my teachers would call and tell on me for being bad. Man I’m old now. Only 36.
Did the same and same age.
My teachers would hand me my report cards to deliver to my parents
I always destroyed it before they saw it which was weird because I got great grades
No, you're not old. Try again in 60 years.
Nextmind and neuralink will literally change our lives completely in the next 50 years. What a time to be alive
Neuralink will be superior to Next mind because it's getting way more information because it's attached to your brain.
@@freddybell8328 I agree, I think neuralink will be far superior but for a long time will be way to expensive for most people. Nextmind will probably be a cheaper option for people wanting to try out this technology.
This series makes me so excited for what's to come. Very cool stuff!

Loved this Season of RetroTech so far.. Good work Mr Brownlee.
I still have a Commodore PET PC from the late 70s. Amazing how far things have come
The first thing that popped up in my mind was how Communication could get so much easier for someone who’d be def, dumb, a patient of autism, blind; the specially abled. The thoughts of the implications towards that direction is what’s blowing up my mind 🤯
AR and VR communication definitely have a big part to play, before neural gear (though that's pretty cool on it's own). Imagine putting on a headset and suddenly your friend appears in front of you in the location of your choice.
this series is dank. Thank you Marques and all who make this a thing.
Wow it’s insane what a difference of 3 years makes. I was born in 1990 and MKBHD was born in 1993 and I have memories of using AOL and AIM in middle school. I also had an older brother who was born in 85 so I think that played a huge role in exposing me to tech and popular culture of the late 80s and early 90s (but AIM was like an early 2000s thing).
Damn he's dropping retro tech videos like crazy.
Keep em coming
This was the most interesting episode so far
This is hands down the funniest and most FUN video I've seen from Marques! This man made my day. xD

As a person that works for AT&T, they still make those videos every 10 years and they try to predict the future 10 years in Advance
Oh, nice! I've been to Samsung museum in Seoul, they had a set of a "bedroom and kitchen of tomorrow", you had to pick up a tablet and watch it kind of in AR on a tablet. Smart counter, smart stove, smart clothes locker. Tbh I wasn't impressed that much.
Where can we see new AT&T videos, are they uploaded somewhere?

Lmao
honestly kinda surprised he's excited for this one rather than terrified, at one point we compromise on the quality of being human itself and get to a point where we realise that maybe it's fine to not have instant access to all the information on the internet; does seem like something out of a movie, but it's apparently not

Old communication feels different. And really liked the guests this episode.
This is the best one so far, Marques! Loved it!
Its scary to communicate with someone just by thinking. I mean we think a lot of bad things about someone in our brain while talking.
Ya, I agree
i had that thought too, it definitely seems too easy to accidently send something you didn't mean to. i would hope however that tech gets implemented would be an attachment outside of your head rather than an implant, that way you can choose when you use it
There'd be no privacy. Tech companies already steal all our data for advertising imagine what they'd do with our literal thoughts

@@kingkong7342 We're getting closer though
I'd rather not though. I hate body modifications, both on me and my partner.
Except, WITH emotions. That is always the underlying difference. Physiologically, thought and emotions are made in separate ways. But, the understanding of experiencing emotions can directly influence the transmission of them through thought. Like how I have no idea how the beaches of Australia feel, but have an idea from my experience of beaches elsewhere. More interestingly is how this kind of tech can improve the lives of those with disabilities. Not just to enhance humans, but help them, too. I would definitely play the trope of the optimistic scientist in a sci-fi flick. xD
