De-Evolution of Technology (We're Going BACKWURTS!!!)

[MilwaukeeStrangler]

Pardon the language but The DMAN is fed up. Just recently lost the remote to a lovely Vizio brand Smart TV. The problem is that TV is not so "smart" when the remote is not in the equation. The television has 1 single button on it. Power. No volume buttons, no Menu buttons, no channel buttons, No directional buttons to select in the Menu. There is no Menu button. There can be only one. POWER... How fucking stupid is this?

The DMAN is not proud to tell you how upset he was when they stopped including the microphone jack on laptops. And then they came for the headphone jacks on laptops, and I said nothing. And then they came for the headphone jacks on smart phones. Do You Remembah when the first bluetooth came out? They looked like zombie retards walking around babbling to themselves.

"Bluetooth" is Green Shit. I hate the fact that I can't pair multiple audio devices all at once. You have to keep Un-Pairing and Re-Pairing (repairing apple & samsung's mistakes) Constantly unpair the computer and phone back and forth. It would be faster to plug in an aux cable. THIS is the convenience of the future? It just conveniently radiates your body cooking it with piping hot cancer beams.

Got a Roku stick. Yes, it's 10 years old. Why does that mean every App is suddenly incompatible with a device that was JUST working? Nothing has changed. Other than 4K options, which are unnecessary. Same thing happened with Spotify when The DMAN attempted to repurpose an old iPhone as his personal Spotify machine. It won't download the Spotify app. There are still VCRs that work. And a phone from 2013 is basically an obsolete, eletronic brick, taking up space.

Streaming is a garbage way to watch a movie. The quality will rise and dip randomly and drop frames. The DMAN abandoned Roku and got a Chromecast. The menu runs faster, popped on The Godfather on a streaming app. It looked like shit. Grainy, terrible low light editing, blurry image. The audio quality sounded Mono and obviously mixed from the 1970s.

Switched it out with a DVD player with a physical copy of The Godfather, the picture quality was excellent, deep noir black scenes, was actually interested in it even more just visually. Sharper image, smoother movement. ON A DVD. It's unbelievable people abandoned owning movies in favor of paying a premium monthly fee for a VIRTUAL list of select things that can be taken off at any moment depending on contractual obligations.

SIRI IS FUCKING USELESS. It can't answer basic shit. It can't change the volume when playing music, in fact talking to SIRI stops my music and can't restart it. The volume goes down and never comes back up. The DMAN is going to hang up and listen to your answer.

How often do you use Deep Discount? She us your order history

I agree with a lot of dre's points but this post (and a few of his posts lately) seems slightly unhinged and I am a little concerned for his mental health. God be with him, no BS.

You see it in Ukraine with those high-tech Leopard Tanks from Germany...basically, Teslas on a continuous track, one part malfunctions and it's basically a sitting duck.

Meanwhile, the old Soviet T82's are still functional, and if they stop working, they're so cheap it's no biggie.

Everything is being designed to cause you stress, discomfort and anxiety. Everything.

Everything gets worse. Everything beautiful is destroyed.

I’m not histrionic, I’m just honest enough to admit it. We all see and feel it every day.

There isn’t a drop of water on earth that isn’t polluted with forever chemicals that cause cancer, all of your food in store contains no nutrition and gives you cancer.

You aren’t allowed to eat real food, farmers must be destroyed, you can’t drive where you want. You have to give it all up to make the sun less hot. You have to take mandatory medical procedures to have basic freedoms. IT’S SCIENCE!

You can’t have faith, but only if you’re Christian. You can’t have pride, but only if you’re white.

Kill all bankers.

Everything was better built back then, all of the best tools I have are the ones my grandad left me that he got from his father. If you go and buy the most expensive replacements in store today they don’t compare at all.

It’s (((planned obsolescence))) and until it’s addressed you shouldn’t listen to a single person on climate change.

If I was fighting in a war I'd just mount a shotgun on a 1991 Honda civic and suicide bomb the enemy with my suicide vest. I am good at war.

Yeah but all you need is a water balloon and some paint and the t82 is finished. I read that on the internet.

Goat farmers with room temperature IQ’s defeated the US military, Vietnamese illiterates did.

Inbred Muslims with flip flops and para gliders fucked up Israel. 10 violent fat men with baseball bats could have defended Israel’s borders better the other day than the 100 billion dollar sensor system they installed.

Yeah but the us made the world a free and safe place by trying really hard, y'know

It’s also people retiring with engineering knowledge and being replaced by diversify hire retards, and expecting them to do a good or competent job is of course racist.

VCR on a tube TV no larger then 26 inches was peak TV. Bad acting in high definition is unwatchable. The click the dial made when changing channels on the TV was nice as well.

I miss static.
