I used 1980s technology for a week

You needed an NES :)

You have Charlie Puth vibes

Very nice indeed.

With a bit more software, there was a ton of stuff around in the 80s, you could upgrade the satisfaction of using the old SE no problem at all. ;)

Also having an antenna to use the tv for normal local programming.. don't know if you still have those in your country.

Still a fun experiment.

Imagine if you actually bought a 1980s car 💀

The quiet contemplation whilst eating pizza at the end really got me. So much less existential noise back then. What a time

They had digital clocks in the 80s. Casio ones. Also paperbacks were a "thing" for "reading". Macintosh SE DID have internet, but mostly in computer labs at university. Also, mixing rice and green beans is dumb, almost as dumb as eating a burger and fries(chips) with a diet coke, the same with having to order online, I still order a pizza via phone since the prices on the web are more expensive than when you actually call the location. You can buy a paper map at a petro/gas station, also TVs didn't burn like that, try buying a sony/magnavox TV next time (quality 80s companies). If you are getting that winded after only an hour of exercise, you need to do more. I don't start sweating until 2hrs in. Your stamina is low pal, at least you went for a small pizza 800-1K calories.

That was a CCD-TRV series camcorder which was made in the mid 90s. I have the CCD-TRV32 and it looks very similar, made in 1997. Earlier models were jet black in color and longer. Still used Video8 tapes though so not much of a difference there I would imagine, aside from an even larger camcorder body and maybe less zoom :o

this was a great video. I don't know how nobody had this idea before but it should become a mini series with more episodes lol maybe offer the idea to netflix. and please, next time 80s clothes and hair LOL

To me the '80's were the years of 1980 thru 1985. I turned 10 in '81. By the late '80's it already had changed so much it was more like the '90's. I had a dual deck boom box so I could make copies of my friends cassettes, a turntable on which I played Kiss and AC/DC records, an Atari 400 with Star Raiders, my Rubiks cube, quarters to play Pac-Man and Defender at the Chucky Cheese, no Walkman but I had my trusty transistor radio with a single monaural corded earphone. Had electronic games, the types with flashing lights and beeping noises - baseball and football and a few others. Still have the Mattel Championship Baseball one but most of the lights are dead.

Do you 90s technology or early 2000s Technology

This is fun... our old world wasn't so bad. We even had alarm clocks...

This is a cleaner way off life im taking something from it

he has a big cock

THE CAR

What camera model did you use?

1980s technology was spyware free

bro really went to a thrift shop to buy a 20 year old outdated map instead of just going to a gas station where they still sell them

i misread as 1930 lmao

seeing the camera quality reminds me of the creepy analog horror videos 💀

we survived for the first day? You have no Idea how much fun I had watching this. Nostalgia!!!!!

You could have also played the Atari 2600 or the NES, two gaming consoles that I spent much of my time on (as a kid) back in the 1980s. 🕹😊

I remember when the VCR first came out. They were over $500.

Liam is the bookworm we never knew we needed 🙌🏻

The transformation detailed in this piece is noteworthy. A book with akin material was a defining moment in my life. "A Life Unplugged: Reclaiming Reality in a Digital Age" by Theodore Blaze

Next time go a whole year

I would always play my attari back then

liam doing an american accent is really good but also so so cursed

And here's me wishing I could use 1980s tech all the time again.

We need to go back to the 80s, and 90s.

You need to add the high social levels characteristic to those times, meaning going out with friends every day

Now try using today's devices in 5 years, see if they work

As much as I have loved to grow up in the 1980s and even having the best memories of my life anchored to that time I definitely wouldn't want to give up of all modern technology to go back to then. Great experiment though!

u need to do a part two, and get even more stuff for that vid, i got one idea, The NES

I used 1980s technology for ten years.

I don't think the Walkman you ordered was the first one. Awesome video, tho!!!

You won't believe me if I tell you. A few weeks ago I spent almost a week with my computer running Windows XP.

I like alot of this but not the fact that you obviosly did not film with a 80's camera. You are clearly using a modern camera with a vhs-filter. Which means you brought along modern tech which makes me question how much you actually used the old tech to begin with

I hope you at least steered clear of 4-star petrol!

Can't believe I watched this in HD :P

As an 80s baby, this took me back. I played a LOT of "Oregon Trail" on a Mac 3 and loved the Walkman because it wouldn't skip if you jogged or ran. Cheers, Liam!

Gen Z looks at all of this like relics but for me, it's all childhood memories. 😢😢😍

Actually, 80s was good. There weren't too much drama. Life was more simple.

when my sister got her first walkman, the salesperson told my mom: "you're about to lose your daughter. She'll be listening to that thing all day and won't hear a word you say. I lost my kid the same way"

I actually remember using payphones a couple of times as a kid, lol.

Was modern car in the 1980s I don't know but he used one

Life could be a dream

I got shot through a space not long ago
I thought I knew the place so well
It wasn't the same, now it goes to show
Sometimes you never can tell
I'm looking high and low, don't know where to go
I got to double back, my friend
The only way to find what I left behind
I got to double back again, double back again
You know I'm moving on in this fine machine
Rolling on through the night
Seeing things like I've never seen
And it's taking me outta sight
Looking high and low, don't know where to go
I got to double back, my friend
The only way to find what I left behind
I got to double back again, double back again
It's got me up and down, I've been lost and found
Down in a deep, dark hole
Looks like my luck has changed, I've been rearranged
And I'm coming out on a roll
Looking high and low, don't know where to go
I got to double back, my friend
The only way to find what I left behind
I got to double back again, double back again
Double back again
Double back again

Alarm clocks existed pre 1980

Tech was better then. Less of a void that sucks you in and more of a supplementary to life.
