Must have been living during a different 2000s than you...

Progress was crazy during the 00s.

In 2000 we still had clunky stationary computing only, in most cases without or only with modem speed online access.
Photography still was analog, music came on huge, physically fragile silver discs.
By 2010, wireless always-on access had become ubiquitous, fully digitalized private life for most.

Everything coming after 2010 feels like almost complete stagnation in comparison.

Only exception: recent generative AI technology. And l am not sure if I am happy about that...
