Microfilms used to be sold as having a life expectancy of up 500 years. But in my experience they were a pain to use and the machines costly to maintain. The films would tear regularly too. Also the quality of the recorded image could be very poor sometimes.

The usual cycle of tech-bro capitalism would put them currently on the early acquire market saturation stage. So it's unlikely that they are currently charging what they will when they are established and have displaced lots of necessary occupations.

It still works. Most of the apps are borked. Windows Explorer hasn't been updated in 5+ years so doesn't work with most sites. Baconit escaped reddit's 3rd party app purge and still works. Imgur still works well but with all the genX on it reminds me of icanhazcheezeburger.

Not to condone it but it was the zeitgeist. There were so many so much worse from that period across all forms of media. His mildly toxic edginess is at least not hidden away.

Living below the local airport's flight path. The Covid lockdown was just bliss how quiet it was.
