NetRngr Posted January 31, 2024 Posted January 31, 2024 That's really cool. I've been watching a lot of documentaries on Netflix recently and its amazing the progress we as a species have come up with just in our lifetimes. I know we all joke about "I remember back when" or "want to confuse a kid hand them a rotary phone." type things but I can remember way back when having to call the phone company and have them change the telephone line from pulse dialing to tone dialing to be able to use my new modem. (The original 300 baud modem was pulse dialing and my new blazing fast 1200 baud modem was tone based. Yeah, I've been at this a while.) Modern cell phones are over one millions, yes million, times more powerful than the computers used in the Apollo space missions. It's really staggering just how far weve come in the last 50 years. Can't wait to see what this group of hairless apes come up with next. 1 Quote
