    Back in 2000 I would call a movie from 1975 ancient.

      The best ever video game (though The Witcher 3 is way up there too, possibly even top 3), Fallout New Vegas, is 15 years old.

      Skyrim is “only” 14 years old, so we’re probably still a decade or two away from TES 6 🤷

    I always watched the news from 20 years ago back in the day. They were from 1980 or 1990.

    They still do this and now it’s from 2005.

    It feels so strange watching them now. Everyone is so different and old school, though i recognize the style and way of talking as having experienced it as an adult.

    And it’s much more “old” than i have it in mind.

        It’s on German TV - the channel is alpha from the ARD Mediathek.

        Nachrichten vor 20 Jahren

        If you use a VPN you should be able to watch. They check if you’re connecting from Germany.

        It streams daily around 2 am.

        It’s followed by Bob Ross btw.

    Dad got it on VHS from a service that was sort of the Netflix of the time. (Not Netflix though, although the company prolly got the idea from Netflix. Original Netflix began in 97 but in Finland Netflix started operating in 2012, with streaming.)

    Fun fact that makes elder millennials like myself and Gen X feel SUPER old:

    Many parents of tweens weren’t even born yet when Courtney Love had Kurt Cobain killed.
