Listening to a 50-year old cassette on a Walkman from 1998… and it sounds really good.

In 50 years from now, will any of current streaming services still be around?

@thomasfuchs Oxygene that old?!

And hell no.

@gjmwoods ^^ right up your alley

@rotnroll666 @thomasfuchs Had the exact same thought myself. I picked up this 1978 Dutch made boombox which still works. Next level engineering

I have this deck (made 1975–77)

@thomasfuchs @gjmwoods How is that stuff so much nicer than what we have today?

@rotnroll666 @thomasfuchs I think I just lost a bidding war on eBay for the same machine 😂

They are so much nicer. All the switches make satisfying clicks when you press them.

@gjmwoods @rotnroll666 my favorite is the tuning dial on the big chonky receivers, never has there been a user interface more satisfying to use
