Maybe "urge" is too harsh of a word. I find the history of technology fascinating and when my boys encountered old tech they were interested by it. We spent some time playing C64 games and it was good fun (in moderation). The rotary phone and seeing if they can figure it out was funny, vinyl is having a renaissance anyway and audio tapes were just cool when they were a thing.
- mankyd 7y agoI look forward to trying the rotary phone thing on my still young children. Hell, they might have an issue with a touch tone phone by the time they're old enough :)
- harel 7y agoIt's a neat exercise - figuring how that rotary thing works without prior knowledge. When I think of it in today's context it's a strange interface. Numbers with zeros and nines took forever to dial :)
