Does anyone ever feel sad with themselves when they think about the possibilities and potentials
these brilliant men saw in computers, knowing what the vast majority of them are used for today?

>knowing what the vast majority of them are used for today?
Running pretty much everything in modern societies? Why would you be sad about that?
Home PCs and the stupid shit people do with them are only a small fraction of computers today.

I mean I get that, but I meant more that they were probably hoping getting them mass produced and
accessible would lead to more people interested in the mathematics of it rather than using it
purely for entertainment

dude you're stuck in the mindset of "man, i'm all deep and shit"
a lot more people ARE interested "in the mathematics of it" today because of computers.

Why does the IBM 5100 hit the hardest?
>> [_] Anonymous 05/08/17(Mon)12:46:52 No.3242231
>>3242223
why?
Is this actually a decline of how the hardware is used or does the rabbit hole go even deeper?

After some time has passed, long after the last single operative being had been assimilated into
the Uni-consciousness, this long forgotten file will be a small, albeit obscure, piece of
knowledge that we know of the entity that created us.

Because John Titor made it a meme among younger generations? Otherwise nobody would even
recognize it.
Original IBM PCs were common in my country during 1980s but I've honestly never seen a 5100 in
real life. I think the same story is true for most countries across the world, except maybe US.

Why is that guy in the red shirt in there twice?

rms? He appears more than twice. Other important figures like Dennis Ritchie and Bill Gates also
make multiple appearances.

It's the exact picture twice. I think it's a mistake.

And I think you're overanalyzing a youtube video but feel free to tell the author.

And while we're nitpicking, there are chronological issues. Recent photos of people appearing
early on the timeline etc.

Yeah, it's definitely a mistake. The YouTube video has the same problem.

You have to be smart to use a computer for entertainment effectively.
Just look at the majority of social media and how garbage the content is.
