No video was ever produced about how VHS worked, we didn't have the technology back then.
Not only stupid but lazy
But we totally landed on the moon. They just had to reuse that tape of one of the most historic events in human history because they had to record something else, or something.
EDIT: This is weird one. I don't care about downvotes, but this was +11/-1 or thereabouts when I went to bed. I've never seen a swing like that, but I get it.
For the record, I was mostly memeing, although it is weird the footage was deleted. Like with many historical happenings, there are many questions, though, and plenty of sketchiness from the government. The moon stuff was just the first thing that popped into my head when talking about no video being produced, though.
You sound totally rational
I don't believe I said that?
Also, are you really saying it's NOT weird to delete the fucking moon landing footage? Cause that's kind of wild. "If you don't keep everything..." We're talking about one of the most historic moments in all of mankind, here.
Never claimed that.
I'm sorry to have to contradict you, but you did in fact say it.
You think the Apollo landings were fake. But wait, there are records of the landings. There are, for example, photographs. You obviously think these records are fake.
...but also, your point in this thread is, "they didn't keep certain records! That proves it's fake!" Therefore, you think not having records proves it's fake.
So yes, my characterization of your position is accurate. Your position is self-contradictory. You think that records are fake, and at the same time, you think that not having records is evidence that it's fake.
"weird" is zoomer girl talk. Please say something more meaningful. What exactly do you think was destroyed? Please don't link me to a news story (spoiler: I'm already well aware of it). I want you to say in your own words what you think happened.
What specifically do you think was the value of the records that were destroyed?
Don't say "lolol it's weird! Its so weird and creepy lolol!!"
Say something like, "the following records were destroyed: _______. As a result, we cannot know _______ (some fact about the missions)"
This rigor that I'm demanding of you is the difference between a fly-by-night idiot who looks at something with no depth of understanding and declares, "that's weird" and someone with the intelligence and determination to actually get to the truth. Which one are you?
So why are America's geopolitical rivals in on the conspiracy? Why is it up to some guy on the internet to uncover this fraud and not China or Russia?
Someone is going to say jews but unironically
For the record I was being mostly tongue-in-cheek (although it is insane we don't have the actual moon landing footage), but yeah, the fact that our rivals went along with at the time, if it were fake, is certainly a challenge to the theory.
I find the incompetence of a records clerk much easier to believe than the idea that the federal government has kept a secret involving that many conspirators for this many years and created a global news broadcast to do so, but is nonetheless unable or unwilling to mock up one tape.
Could you paid shills keep your flat earth bullshit to yourselves on Reddit? Thanks.
What did I do?
Also, I wish someone paid me to be retarded on the internet. Alas.
It’s was hentai on telamundo. They didn’t understand it and they couldn’t track it down because it wasn’t released in the states yet. You understand
Alright, that makes sense.
Fun fact. JVC and Zenith both made decks in the 80s that did load that way.
And if you want to see something extra wacky: https://archive.org/details/zenith-vertical-vcr-vrd-530-hf-d.-d.-teoli-jr.-a.-c.-1
Man, I miss the days of secret buttons behind a panel and VFD displays.
And top loading decks were also a thing, yes. But the VCR in the video clearly has a standard wide slot.
Beautiful. I wish they still made electronics with those displays.
They do actually - my Denon receiver has them but they’re very simple displays. But yeah, I’d kill for an old VFD graphic equalizer display.
Everything about that animation looks like 0 fucks were given. I think there's a non-zero chance they couldn't be bothered reorientating the cassette, or they're doing a deliberate "ironic-slop" aesthetic.
That is just slop.
I mean, yes, but it's definitely a choice made knowingly and played as a joke sometimes. It got pretty popular with those goat simulator games back in the day.
More like AI can't animate it the correct way. Why are we even discussing a piece of shit AI game to begin with? News at 11, AI is still slop.
Also, why is Klara such an idiot they don't call this for what it blatantly is? Here's a tip, don't follow idiots on Twitter. Using zoomer unironically was your first clue.
They probably would think floppy disks were the original SIM cards for early, portable phones.
My kids were mind blown when I told them 3" hard disks were not the same as floppy disks.
There were a few that worked that way. I remember a friend had a tv/ vhs one piece that went in that way because all the buttons were on the left of it.
Pretty smart rage bait. It's gonna get people talking about it.
