mputer install it everywhere. 𝗧𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗟𝗗 for charity! Ah, Technology, where would we be without yee? I don't think enough people appreciate just how incredible technology has become in the last few decades So.. I'm gonna do it for you. For most of humanity each generation has had essentially the same lifestyle as their parents. After we invented the wheel, humans did like nothing for thousands of years. Come on past humanity, get it together! But now we're in an age wher

e our lives are significantly different from what they were, even a decade ago. Modern technology changed the way we learn, play, socialize, work, travel, you name it. In the blink of an eye, every aspect of life has been radically altered, which as far as I know has never happened before. I didn't get a phone until I was 14 and even then I could only make calls So it was.. you know useless. I asked my mom if I could get texting because that's how all my friends talked to each other but you can

imagine how it sounds through a parent's ears when their kid says "Everyone else has it!" *pffft* Yeah, okay. Fast forward a year and my mom, sister and I were visiting some family. Sitting at the restaurant All of the kids were texting each other except me. My mom saw them all laughing and sending secret messages to each other and she realized that texting had in fact become a pretty important part of teenagers social lives and she felt awful that I was getting left out. After the trip, she was

adamant about getting me a new phone that I could text with ASAP. It was actually really sweet! (Would have been nice if she had, you know, listened the first time but it's whatever...) Of course, the biggest example of a technology that's dramatically changed daily life is the internet. Think about it! You can find the answer to practically any question, instantly! Are you kidding me? That's an absolute God Tier superpower How do I change my oil? bam! Video walkthrough. What's the answer to th

is math problem? Boom, Wolfram Alpha. How do I make shortbread? Ker-blamo, a delicious recipe with a wholly unnecessary personal story! The Internet is the greatest tool humanity has ever devised and even it's radically during my lifetime When I was in elementary school, we got dial-up internet Which is where your computer uses the house phone to call a different computer and swap JPEGs with bleeps and bloops It was incredibly slow. And it. Was. Magical I remember waiting for over an hour for a

flash animation to load and it was the funniest thing I had ever seen. The first youtube video I ever watched was okay goes treadmill video and since it took so long to buffer I wound up watching it over and over while it loaded each time getting just a few more seconds since the internet went over the Phone line you could break it by picking up the phone and pressing a bunch of buttons or by using a paper clip to short The second and third contacts in the wall jack, so when you get into a fight

with your sister And she forces you off the family computer that you're supposed to share You can go to your room and get sweet revenge by kicking her off line and when she bursts in accusing you of tampering with The phone you can reply with an innocent But how I don't have a phone in my room And she'll storm off defeated but still suspicious except you're not the bad guy because you didn't get to use the internet all day yesterday So it was definitely your turn and she deserved it These days

buffering is a thing of the past for most people but more importantly now I can watch any movie whenever I want. Any movie! when I was a young baby child if I wanted to see a movie I had to begged my mom to take me to Blockbuster and pray they had it in stock getting a hold of a Specific movie was an ordeal and if you decided that you are really feeling it too bad. We paid for that bad boy So we will be watching it until the end of the credits and we will be kind and we will rewind because we ar

e Law-abiding citizens and I will be damned if blockbuster is gonna charge me a fee to press a button then wait All right Blockbuster you will be missed [R.I.P] I feel like an old man telling stories about *back in my day*, but that's kind of the point This wasn't that long ago and things have already advanced so much The Internet is the foundation that almost every other recent life-changing technology has been built on it seems like it can do anything Perhaps it even has an answer to the most

important question of all, how do I find love? Well, there's always tinder I remember when I first got a smartphone and suddenly I had access to the Internet Everywhere being able to use your location to get context specific information like directions and... okay, it's mostly directions, but that's super useful I know all of this has been around for a while and it's become boring to most people but guys How are we not all constantly freaking out about this smartphones, especially just do so muc

h I could write shoot and edit an entire film on this little thing in my pocket You probably wouldn't want to but you could a modern smartphone is basically that watch from Spy Kids that literally does everything except to tell Time except my phone also has a clock take that Danny Trejo It used to be that getting a job required going door-to-door and giving your resume to business after business Until eventually you got a call for an interview or so I've been told because today every job applica

tion is online But for some reason everyone over the age of I don't know forty doesn't seem to understand That's not how the world works anymore If you walk into a business resume in hand asking for an application You'll be given nothing but a confused look by the guy [or gal] behind the counter as he [or she] eventually Realizes that your mom must be waiting for you outside. And of course you already know this but applications are on their website He'll [or she'll] tell you information that you

'll take back to the silver Hyundai Elantra idling in the parking lot this time Unable to be ignored and because I know she's watching don't worry. Mom Tom literally everyone my age had that exact experience I love you Anyway, I know things are kind of blare right now, but technology is amazing and especially right now [Captions by David Moses] I'm just like I love the Internet. That's all also I just thought about this [Captions by David Moses] Can we all take a moment to appreciate how fricki

n' cool AirPods are? [Captions by David Moses] When I was a kid I thought wouldn't it be cool to have headphones without a cable too bad that's impossible [Captions by David Moses] But apparently it's not [Captions by David Moses] Don't forget to install tab for a cause and since you made it this far why not watch some of my other videos I bet [Captions by David Moses] You'll like them [Captions by David Moses] Okay. Bye [Captions by David Moses] [Captions by David Moses]
