The Boring Internet

The internet you grew up on isn't dying. A commercial veneer glued on top of it is. A visual essay about what actually persists.

Tonight, I watched my old Reservoir Dogs VHS tape on a CRT television that was manufactured in 1989. The TV has a blown right speaker, so the audio was a touch lopsided. Picture quality of the 4:3 image was immaculate. The experience was, in two words, intoxicatingly glorious. Don’t get me wrong, I love 4K, but damn, I absolutely loved going back to the old days even just for a night.

Polaroid 690s are equipped with a manual focus switch. Inside the front plate chassis is a little spring and a clip, which is just a tiny plastic bit and is prone to failure. Mine broke today. I'm not much of a repair wizard, so I won't open the case, but have MacGuyvered it instead. Jamming this toothpick into the switch while it's toggled does the trick!
