I hate how it doesnt mention Heinrich Hertz at all.

Its a shame radio is not so mainstream nowdays

Important details about our disappearing funds and the effort to retrieve them.

Very nice

Who the hell thought about this, and who the hell made it work? It’s just amazing what people have come up with over the centuries.

Wrong it was tesla .... googly eyes invented the antenna

Grammar could be better

When Marconi invented the radio and turned it on, he heard Alexander Popov's Russian swearing in it

Baird was the first to transmit any live images at all, using mechanical methods to dissect the image. Next was the flying spot scanner invented by Manfred von Ardenne in Germany. This projected the blank scanning of a cathode ray tube through a still transparency or motion picture film. The film system could develop the film in less than a minute and run it through the scanner while still wet. It was "almost live" and very expensive to operate (film ain't cheap). Farnsworth's primary contribution was the first camera tube capable of transmitting live images. Farnsworth's greatest contribution was to take all the ideas of the "inventors" of the day and make it all work together as a complete system. I must mention, that after I personally interviewed Mrs. Farnsworth, Zworykin's tube the iconoscope NEVER produced an image until AFTER Zworykin visited Farnsworth's lab. Philo foolishly explained his entire system to him, and RCA took that football and ran with it. FYI: I am the only person in the world working with Farnsworth image dissector tubes at this time (that I am aware of). I have several tubes in my collection and have gotten recognizable pictures out of two of them to date.

How did these people even think of this stuff

We can also record data by writing just like I did now. My data is saved now in the comment section. I consider writing to be a simple form of data storage as well, I can’t store music though.

Hi I have a very very old camera that I would like to learn about. How would I do that or where would I take it to learn about it please? Thanks

They missed the most important part... the magnet record sounds into geometric shapes... sound naturally create shapes.. look up cymatics

does the plastic tape in audio cassette similar with the one they used in a floppy disk diskette?

Alpha Beta in northern California was bought out by the Raleys grocery chain (also Nob Hill from the bay area ) and changed the name to Raleys.

What happened to the supermarket chain Winn-Dixie?? I've visited other towns and they are still around. However I would like to know if Winn- Dixie is still around??

Good video which save my media management class👍

Agree

The TRUE jukebox and its industry started in the 1930's.

The picture used to show Louis Glass was not accurate. That was a man who lived in Texas born 1915; not the danish born Louis Glass who patented jukebox technology in 1899.

Yup thank you using this for lesson thank ya broski

Landau bars suffered from the demise of vinyl tops and an association with hearses which are their last holdout. That's even more the case with the vinyl top itself - the hearse conversion uses a fiberglass "cap" for the rear body extension and it's easier and cheaper to cover everything with padded vinyl than finish everything smooth with the remaining front half of the production sedan roof (why they don't use SUVs is beyond me...)

1) Rotary Phones. WRONG. Rotary phones are also EXTREMELY familiar to Gen X. And a good chunk of Millennials probably also know what they are. Also, members of the Silent Generation are still alive and will also recognize these from their own childhoods. Try again. 2) Real Film. Are we talking photographic or reel to reel? In any case, Gen X is also very familiar with both of these. Also some Millennials. Also the Silent Gen. 3) Time Before the Internet. WRONG. Okay, I'm going to stop mentioning the Silent Gen and we can just pretend they're all dead for the sake of this list (sorry, Silent Gen). But the Internet was born in 1983. Gen X goes from 1964 to 1979. ALL Gen Xers remember the time before the internet, too. 4) Encyclopedias. See Time Before the Internet. You do know one of the most popular Gen X children's books was Encyclopedia Brown, right? 5) Less Airplane Restriction. The massive airplane restrictions were put into place after 9/11. ALL Gen Xers and Millennials also remember the time before airplane restrictions. Even the really old Gen Zers might. Oh. Smoking? That was banned in 1988. So Gen Xers do actually also remember the time when you could smoke on planes. 6) Milkmen. At last something you got kind of right. Milkmen declined in the period from 1970 to 1990. So some Gen X and Millennials may have had them, but not all. The house I grew up in had a sealed up door that had been put there during construction in the 1950s for milk drop off. But when that stopped, it was sealed for safety. You could still see it on the exterior of our house, though. 7) TV end time. Welp. I can't fact check this one with my Google Fu. I an tell you I don't remember it having an end time. Though it may as well have. It was all just long-form ads for products after a certain point at night. So maybe this is right? 8) Typewriters. Wrong again. I remember typewriters vividly. My high school requirements included a typing class,. I had to get my mom to type papers for me when I was in grade school. Gen X most definitely remembers typewriters. And the white out fluid when you made a mistake. And changing ribbon cartridges. Also, typewriters are pretty old tech. The Lost Generation, the Greatest Generation, and the Silent Generation all also experienced typewriters. It is NOT "something only baby boomers have or will ever experience." You're a fricking history channel. HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS? Okay, bud. You're a Zoomer,, huh? From the way you're framed this, and something you said about Zoomers and Alpha, it sounds like it. Well, whatever you are, you need to get better at research. Or just talk to people. People who are alive right now and could tell you what life was like. Because this sucked. Yeah, Gen Z and Alpha are not going to experience these things unless they get into a retro lifestyle or there's a technological apocalypse. But knowledge and experience of these things often didn't begin with Baby Boomers, and it certainly didn't end with them. And if you actually had any inkling of history, you'd know that. Or at least have enough Google Fu to look it up.

Bruv, normal people did not watch films on film at home. They went to the movie theater. So "rolling film at home" was really barely if at all a thing, ever.

I REMEMBER those days!

Nice channel it is.

What old home feature i would like to see a comeback is a laundry shoot, and maybe the dumbbell waiter food elevator.

I miss the high beam button being on the floor. I miss especially the floor vent you could open with a lever that sure cooled off yer feet and legs much faster than AC. A friend had a 36 Chevy pickup and the lower half of the windshield cranked out this was great til you drove thru moths or bees. Great olde times!

It's so sad that a video like this needs to exist.

Those were the days😌 which we aren't gonna experience being GenZ. 🥲

Here before video blows up ->

I am unable to watch this video because of poor sound quality, poor picture clarity (at times) and because there are so many photos/graphics being "thrown onto the screen" that I started getting motion sickness. Slow it down a bit! What is the hurry?

Loved the bench seat back in the 1970s. When I was in High School. Your girl could sit next to you.

Hood ornaments? Rolls Royce and Bentley have entered the chat…

Some of your information presented in this video doesn't seem well-researched. The Jukebox wasn't JUST in the 1990s, but it was also found in various eating establishments and bars back to, at least, the 1950s. Typewriters were not in just SOME homes; they were in MANY homes in the 1950s through to the personal computer age, as, for example, many teachers required papers to be typed.

And there is a difference between hidden headlights and pop-up.headlights

It is landau bars not.lando.bars

Bench seats were effectively outlawed by the requirement of shoulder belts for every passenger.

Ashtrays and lighters were banned from cars by Government mandate.

I would like to note that the demise of the bench seat was the direct result of the Federal requirement for air bags for all front seat passengers. It was too difficult to design an air bag that could protect two front seat passengers, ergo the switch to front buckets. An interesting side item: insurance companies back in the sixties charged EXTRA for a car with bucket seats, apparently thinking that bucket seats made the car a "sports" car, and the drivers would drive recklessly!

"VIN al" records? Seriously???

Yikes, where I live, vending machines are popping out of the ground like lime scooters in a big city

It should be noted that many features were dropped due to NTSHA rules, not the manufacturers.

The column shifter hasn't disappeared, it is just more common in pickup trucks than cars.

4 wheel steering? Manual transmissions? Wind up windows?

Most of this stuff still exists

Pay phones still exist

🤔😊They should bring back Hood ornaments! My 85 Pontiac has one and I love it.😍😁
