@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ So, from the European point of view, here is a short summary of why 90s were so
- A lot of amazing [art](art.md) came to existence -- although [proprietary](proprietary.md), it could at least be said that it was well done, had [soul](soul.md) and people took some time to make it. For example movies, games and music were made by people who knew how to make movies, games and music, so we saw things such as Pulp Fiction, Jurassic Park, Forrest Gump, Linkin Park, [Pokemon](pokemon.md) (the original non-gay ones), [Harry Potter](harry_potter.md), Simpsons (the peak seasons), South Park, [Tamagotchis](tamagotchi.md), Jim Carrey comedies and much more. Computer games at this time had absolutely peak aesthetics in the whole history of Universe (and they were also released as a completely [finished](finished.md) product, as a physical thing you would buy and literally OWN forever from then on). Even things back then considered trash, such as Britney Spears, don't literally make you bleed from your ears and in comparison with today's "best music" sound like angel choirs.
- In [computer](computer.md) [technology](tech.md) world some very important things were made, besides others [Linux](linux.md) (1991), [World Wide Web](www.md) (well almost -- 1989), [gopher](gopher.md) (1993), all the legendary Boomer Shooters -- [Wolf3D](wolf3d.md) (1992), [Doom](doom.md) (1993), [Duke Nukem 3D](duke_nukem.md) (1996), [Quake](quake.md) (1996), Quake II and III, Half Life (1998) etcetc., [GameBoy Color](gbc.md) (1998), [PS1](ps1.md) (1995), [N64](n64.md) (1994) etcetc. In 1997 a computer named [Deep Blue](deep_blue.md) first beat the world [chess](chess.md) champion. Even the versions of [Windows](windows.md) from this time are considered the most bearable ones.
- [Feminism](feminism.md) and [LGBT](lgbt.md) were still seen as a [joke](joke.md).
- No [gays](gay.md), [transsexuals](tranny.md), [furries](furry.md), [bronies](brony.md), [zoomers](zoomer.md), [autists](autism.md), influencers, nu-males, nothings of that sort! There were only normal people. It wasn't even normal to be fat or have 20 mental diseases, people were just normal. Just image it, you walk the street and there are no monsters, not on TV, not on the Internet, not anywhere!
- No hordes of [gays](gay.md), [transsexuals](tranny.md), [furries](furry.md), [bronies](brony.md), [zoomers](zoomer.md), [autists](autism.md), influencers, nu-males, nothings of that sort! There were only normal people around. It wasn't even normal to be fat or have 20 mental diseases, people were just normal. Just image it, you walk the street and there are no monsters, not on TV, not on the Internet, not anywhere! { NOTE: Let us be reminded that [we](lrs.md) love everyone, including gays, transsexuals, furries, autists, Nazis, simply all living beings. This is a criticism of trends in society, not "hate speech" against any individual -- please see the difference between saying that one dislikes hordes of freaks all around and for example promoting genocide or bullying those people. You may dislike salty food but still be OK with it existing and you may even like salty food but dislike food that has 10 kg of salt in it or promoting putting salt in chocolate. ~drummyfish }
- No [Facebook](facebook.md), [Twitter](twitter.md), [TikTok](tiktok.md), [Discord](discord.md), [Steam](steam.md), [Reddit](reddit.md), [YouTube](youtube.md), Twitch, no [smartphones](smartphone.md), actually no "[smart](smart.md)" devices AT ALL, no "[apps](app.md)", [Elon Musk](elon_musk.md), no [Google](google.md), no [Android](android.md), no [JavaScript](javascript.md), no [HTTPS](https.md), no [Flash](flash.md), no [docker](docker.md), no [cmake](cmake.md), no [Rust](rust.md), no [Apple](apple.md) (in Europe), no "spy assistants", no [Minecraft](minecraft.md), no Roblox, no [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md), no [crypto](crypto.md), no [NFT](nft.md)s, no [AI](ai.md) shit and much more. Imagine the paradise.
- No one cared about [privacy](privacy.md) at all! Literally there was ZERO concern about it, you could share all your private data publicly, passwords were sent in plain text, no one would even think of abusing it, there was even no way of doing it basically.
- Computers were 32 bit, no 64 bit [bullshit](bullshit.md).
@ -40,6 +40,7 @@ So, from the European point of view, here is a short summary of why 90s were so
- Actors and singers, even if stupid, were at least somewhat good looking people and not vomit inducing monsters.
- Needless to say nature and weather were much nicer also -- where today there are McDonald's parking lots back then were forests, air was cleaner, more animals were around, winters had actual snow, you could still find places without plastic garbage lying all around.
- Politics was shit, as it always is, but it wasn't an absolute unimaginable [joke](jokes.md) like it is nowadays, there were still socialist parties who kind of cared for the common people and sometimes there were even people in politics who had some sense of morality and whom you could at least partially respect, like Vaclav Havel.
- Fun wasn't illegal and you didn't have to put 1000 pages of disclaimer on a joke.
- People weren't completely enslaved and crippled by juggling thousands of bullshit activities all the time like posting photos of food while checking emails, investment portfolio, crypto wallet and bank account at the same time while using the other hand to update a banking app to be able to pay stream subscriptions, monthly internet bills while also keeping up with paying insurance for health, house, car, dogs and making sure that with current inflation rate there will be something left to buy food and, trusting current weather forecasts, enough heating to not freeze in the winter and maybe even buy your grandma another gender switch surgery for Christmas.
- ([Drummyfish](drummyfish.md) was born.)
- Probably more cool stuff, not all can be listed here.
