Date: May 22nd, 2015 9:21 PM Author: Clear stag film gaping here's what's kind of weird to me - going out in the woods or into a cave that hasn't been visited since almost 40 years ago, and finding some trash, and noting that the product wrappers or cans actually have barcodes on them.
then remembering that wide adoption of such things began way back in the 70's, and we have been increasingly technologized since then.
the phrase "fifty years ago" has been used since i was a little kid to denote an earlier de-technologized era, but in a few years, that won't be sufficient anymore.
50 years ago was 1965, and IBM was selling some computers back then that were a shitload better than what they had been selling just a few years before.
50 years ago was IBM's first actual "desktop" computer:

50 years ago, the american murder rate had already started to accelerate from its late-50's lows.
