    Some Bliss/XP lore:
    "Apparently it’s real! To commemorate the end of support for Windows XP, Microsoft made a video about the photographer who took the iconic picture.
    Chuck O’Rear got the image in southern Sonoma County, north of San Francisco. He took it on a Mamiya RZ67 camera with color Fuji Film and a tripod. O’Rear explains in the video:
    There was nothing unusual. I used a film that had more brilliant colors, the Fuji Film at that time, and the lenses of the RZ67 were just remarkable. The size of the camera and film together made the difference and I think helped the Bliss photograph stand out even more. I think if I had shot it with 35 millimeter, it would not have nearly the same effect.
    O’Rear visits the original site, talks about the dangerous, winding roads in the area, and discusses the process he went through to sell Microsoft the photo. Even then, before anyone in the public had ever seen it, Microsoft valued it so highly that O’Rear couldn’t find a courier service willing to take the liability of transporting it. Eventually Microsoft paid for a plane ticket so he could carry the photo himself to their offices."

    We were blessed to grow up without a smartphone in our hand since birth. The world was different. Things were simpler. Technology has advanced society, but we've also lost something. We've paid a great price for 24/7 phones in our pocket, social media every second, and an internet dominated by commerce and control. I said something similar on another Retrovex video. Shout out to all the 80's and 90's kids out there. Life was better.

      Yeah now we are all a bunch of addicts. I used to switch smartphone with a caterpillar b30 (a dumb phone) for years and was happy. Now for travel reasons I got back Instagram and smartphone but honestly I'm not happy. Much better without! When I go back I'll surely return to caterpillar. It's some kind of fake light, I call it ''the luciferi effect'', lucifer mean ''light bringer'', but it's a fake light, a scam. When you touch that light you get scammed and you become addicted, this is what happen with Smartphone, we were blinded by that light because it was insanely attractive.
      I agree anyway, but isn't all, think when you was a kid and perhaps you used to play ps2, mostly of us couldn't play online so bring a friend at home and play togheter and that was a magic moment. Now modern kids plays from their own homes together and isn't the same thing.
      Our brain has been atrophied with all this scrollling thing, dopamine addictions, ecc..Also I still remind as a kid that magic moment with Windows xp.

    This episode was greatly inspired by the early 2000s, the hopeful future, and the early days of the frutiger aero aesthetic.
    5:22 The Bubbles were inspired by the frutiger aero stock images and i decided to credits my supporters in them to show my gratitude.
    Having nearly lost my hearing in my right ear, it took a big toll on me and resulted in me not being able to finish this sooner, but after getting better, I had a whole new view on life, how things can always get bad, but eventually things will bounce right back up.
    I felt like a new born, full of inspiration, and will, to create meaningful and creative projects, and I definitely don't take things for granted now, every time i am able to hear now I smile, I feel so grateful that I have the ability to experience not only my works but everyone else's, a world without sound would be soul crushing for me.
    So this is my message in this episode, no matter how bad it gets, there's always a modicum of hope that things will eventually turn for the better 💙

      This is exactly how I think about things too. My mother passed in 2021 and it was truly the last year social media still felt like it was only in the series of tubes, not in the world. I feel good knowing that her world wasn't completely turned on it's head before she passed. She experienced nothing newer than 2016 tech. Essentially Windows XP, OSX before it became MacOS, Amazon before robots, iTunes before Apple Music, she still ripped CDs and Blu-Rays like I showed her to, printed recipes, had Cable TV, drove a car without phone integrations or overbearing safety features and organized her photos on her hard drive instead of a cloud. As I discovered this channel and listened to them I made note that all these things she did are things I've missed so much I simply want to unplug from the drama of Moore's Law and live in peace with this ancient, mostly functional technology. Life was good. Thanks for leaving this comment, I needed to write that.

Now there is no man in the house (I am weak, as it were) and there is no one to deal with technology\computers\home (I can, but not particularly attracted)... We had a difficult relationship (in his heart, he loved us. The life situation was also not easy - "everything is just like people"), but I miss it... Also for those times when he, the supplier of PC\technologies to the house, was still alive - in 97 ~ he brought a PC with a pirated HL (my first game. Not counting the Minesweeper\Klondike [solitaire]) on a CD-RW and he looked like (reminded me of) Gordon Freeman (also, by the way, Vitalik from iXBT Games. Well, these are local video game reviewers\guru, you don't know. Ironically, now it also in stasis, as soon as all of us [?], and HL3 is now outside the window)...

В современных Виндовс этот бэк-дор по каналу обновлений для товарища майора назывался BadTunnel. Ща не знаю как...), он был техническим человеком (инженер\связист\радиотехник) и самоучкой в ПК, знал поболее многих и всем помогал с любым вопросом по ПК... Теперь в доме как бы нет мужчины (я слабоват как бы) и некому особо заниматься технологиями\компьютерами\домом (я могу, но не особо прельщает)... У нас были трудные отношения (в душе он любил нас. Жизненная ситуация была также непростая - "всё, как у людей"), но я скучаю... Также и по тем временам, когда и он, поставщик ПК\технологий в дом, был жив ещё - в 97 ~ он принёс ПК с пиратской HL (первая игра моя. Не считая Сапёра\Косынки) на болванке и сам внешне был похож (напоминал мне) на Гордона Фримена (ещё, кстати, Виталик из iXBT Games. Ну это местные гуру\обзорщики видеоигр, вы не знаете. Иронично, сейчас тоже в стазисе, как и скоро все мы [?], а HL3 ща за окном)...

    When I think back to the early 2000s, I fondly remember when Windows XP came out and what an amazing time it was between 2001 and 2007/08. Those 6 years or so, were so incredible for so many things. Movies, music, TV shows, etc. This was pre smart phone days and people still used flip phones. Many people remember non stop 24/7 downloading music from Napster, Limewire, and Morpheus. I still have CD's that I burned on my computer using Nero. Good times they were.

I wiped it, and using an original Windows XP install disc purchased by my dad in 2004, installed XP. It's amazing. Looks and feels exactly the way I remember. And it's all still there. MSN Messenger is installed by default. Windows Media Player is still the cool one you can customize with all sorts of skins. And the desktop... pure "bliss". I still have a few kinks to iron out (upgrading to SP3, getting internet to work, finding audio drivers), but it already looks so good. This will sound dramatic, but it felt like coming home.

    Thank you for this, here because a friend linked me to your Windows 2000 one and was hoping there was an XP version too. Found it! XP was one of the main operating systems of my childhood, had an offline tower that I would play any cd game my father had around the house or bought for me in 2008. A good mix of educational games, and RCT + RCT2 mainly, but really enjoyed messing around with Powerpoint and Word. Pinball was great. Sadly the tower went to a family member right before we moved.
    Really don't remember the early 2000s because I was the last born of last century, but so far this feels like home.

    That's a very good soundscape, nice background, and that music reminds me a bit of Jean-Michel Jarre's "Waiting for Cousteau". It's awesome and good work.

    Takes me back to 2002, watching my parents computer loading up slowly with windows media player automatically opening up playing "Like Humans Do" by David Byrne. I immediately closed it and played me some 3D pinball or some Sonic games that my uncle bought before getting exposed to the internet. Nostalgia. Good memories.

  • @pozitronpozitronich3985

    Эх-х... Раньше действительно было душевнее 😉❗
    Я когда был маленький, в 2004 году у отца появился первый компьютер ( собрал из тех комплектующих которые ему отдали, что-то докупил).
    И первой системой была именно Windows XP.
    И моей первой игрой - была NFS 5.
    Я даже помню первый раз когда установили - машины были без колёс 😏😁. Потом переустановили - колёса появились 😁.
    Я на компьютере прошёл множество игр: NFS, всякие шутеры, казуалки. Смотрел множество мультфильмов ( особенно советские - "Ну погоди!" "Тайна третьей планеты", интересные др.мультфильмы ).
    P.S. К чему я это всё написал...
    Цените то время которое есть, особенно детство.
    Раньше скажу честно - люди были чище и искреннее, интернет был действительно интересным, увлекательным, без этого коммерческого мусора, злобы, ненависти, грязной политики и т.д.
    Эх... Вернуться бы в то время, хотя бы ненадолго 😏😉.

  • @redsquirrelftw
    @redsquirrelftw Před měsícem

    As someone that grew up with Windows 98, and had used Windows 3.11 and 95 as well, it makes me feel old to realize that XP is over 20 years old now. People who were little kids when they used it as their first OS are now adults. I guess I was practically a kid myself... would have been around 15 when it got released. I actually had to look it up, I did not realize it was 2001. It had a rough start though, it was very bloated for the PCs at the time. It took a couple service packs, and hardware manufacturers catching up, for it to be usable. It was at least a few years later that I actually upgraded to it myself.
