There was no societal need for technology to ever progress past this point.

And they pin ADHD on the zoomer generation. Look at this fucking retard

Try moving it now.

I watch youtube while playing games while stream podcasting with my mates

>>106555073 (OP)
>calls and sms
>email
>text based websites

This is all we would need for a comfy civilization.

I was going to write a post disagreeing
But then I realized that AI and streaming destroyed the internet
I totally agree, except add YouTube

I know we look back with rose tints, but that era had its own obnoxious problems

>>106555073 (OP)
Theres a strong argument to be made for locking technology where it stood on January 8th 2007.

anon we’re talking about 2006 here. not 1998

I like crt tvs but the hum drives me nuts

>>106558435
in 2006 only about 7% of the world had high-speed internet

>>106558435
I did not have DSL in 2006, I still remember 15-35 kb/s on a GOOD day

>>106558497
yeah the white parts, we hadn’t yet hooked india

I lived in the middle of a small village, we had ADSL and it was at 1-2megabit.
Don't listen to these anons, 2006 wasn't that bad. In 2006 I was pirating games non stop, I was still using newsgroups.

yeah, it took time to download a game since it would be between 4-9GB, maybe more for a PC game but it wasn't that bad.

>>106558545
nigger that involved most of canada and america, upwards of 60-80%

I'd gladly just freeze technology right before the iPhone came out.

>>106558628
By geography maybe

I had a cable modem in 2004 and live in the West Virginia coal fields

>>106558555
2006 was great. 640 kbps was plenty enough for me. You only had to wait a night or so to download a multiple GB game. The world went crazy a few years after, but before that happened we had a few good years.

It was probably the last time internet had an average IQ above 100

>ssd actually are old tech
Wtf

>>106558793
they were conceived early but unviable for decades because the gates would wear down too fast. mid to late 2000s had a number of breakthroughs that made them commercially viable at large sizes.

>>106558809
So what was the most decent one you could get in 2006?

>>106555073 (OP)
And it never did what is your point?
>>106555155
You don't need to take your goon cave with you everywhere do you timmy?

I like how much more powerful, slimmer and more convenient technology is now.

2006-7 was when ssds just entered mainstream high end
they were stupid expensive compared to today ($500+, do inflation calculations) and 32-64gb but you could find them
also remember this was well before even 1tb hdds to put the size into some context

>>106561268
Nice argument.

>>106561731
what is there to argue? youre a retarded zoomer, nothing else need be said

>>106555073 (OP)
No, we absolutely did need to progress past the point of having any reason to watch TV. Fucking slopboxes.

>>106558435
My town (in australia) still had dial-up in 2006 unless we were willing to fork out crazy money for a satellite connection.

You sound underage.

Stop renting and buy your own house.
