    Fun fact: fax machines are still widely used in many industries, the majority of car dealers still use them to send signed contracts to banks and the DMV.

    The funny thing about the PSN "hack" is that the admin password was actually "12345".

    Fax machines aren't gone. They are still used in finance and medical businesses, as well as international business correspondence since there is almost no delay.

    A suggestion for the next video i thought when you'll were talking about faxes would either be 1. Go through old videos ( commercials and such) and see what ideas of "tommorows world" are closest to having come through ( a ranking video). To my knowledge the closest so far has been the tech from back in the future lol. Or 2. Have a VS match and have Matt and Austin guess what era the idea from the tech is. What was going on in said era that may have made people think this is how the future will evolve lol.

    I miss BBS gaming..Trade Wars, Circus Maximus. Those were good days. Also met a lot of shady friends on BBSes. ๐Ÿ˜… We had bowling nights.

    While I agree that Incandescent bulbs are silly for light nowadays, they are still very useful and hard to replace for some applications such as providing heat for livestock and to keep pipes from freezing. I have tried a number of heat mats and heat lamps but most of those are very poorly made and seem to be way more likely to randomly short out and catch on fire while costing much more. I have had several heat mats and lights actually catch on fire, once a heat lamp even started a decent fire in a shed that could have been really bad if it had not been raining at the time and that lamp was even on a GFCI outlet but still caught on fire. In my many years of using incandescent bulbs for the same sort of thing I have never had one actually catch anything on fire even when a fixture would come into contact with water and short out. And for a heat source they are really more energy efficient then many alternatives as they come in much lower wattages for applications that do not need much heat, while many of the alternatives either just waste way more power then is needed or have to be setup with a thermostat in some way. You would think that 300-500 watt heat mats and lamps would have built in thermostats, but many do not or they are so bad that they are not actually usable, so to get something that actually works properly you have to buy and setup a actually good external thermostats that adds extra cost, complexity, and another thing to potentially fail and short out. I kind of hate to see the loss of incandescent bulbs many as they are so useful as a small low wattage source of heat.

    I'm still rocking my Minidisc players. Got a Professional Studio Deck hooked into the house stereo, and a few portables lying around for going out of the house.
  • @falloutpictures
    Worked in a TV studio for a few years and when I left in 2012, they were still using mini disc for some of the audio. As for the incandescent lights, we used 1k, 2k, and 5k lamps and when the 5k goes, you would know it. I do have a small collection of broken lamps with bubbles on the glass.
  • @johnrogers2826
    I really miss that dial up sound. One of the top ten hits of them growing up days.
  • @Ranger7Studios
    I still have my mini disc players and the quality is amazing. They just never took off because they were so expensive and they broke so easily.

    Sony beginning to charge people money for PlayStation Plus drove me away from PlayStation. I still own a PlayStation 1, 2 and 3 and I never bought a PlayStation 4 or 5 for that main reason. Alot of people dislike the N64 controller too much it's not the greatest controller but it fits comfortably in the hand and I've spent alot of hours enjoying them
