[Video] Concerning technological advancement
[ As usual, "Apollo" is at the desk of his home office. It looks even more lived in than before, though still retaining a fastidious tidiness. He looks at the camera with a genial smile and begins to speak. ]
I would like to ask those of you who come from worlds with technology beyond the printing press what you most enjoy about this world's technological advancements. I am also quite curious as to how technology has expanded in the worlds you hail from, and how it is most commonly used.
Personally I have taken a shine to cloud servers. While failure to research your hosting company can lead to data breeches, the concept itself is quite interesting, and I find it very useful. Of course, I have done research on several different companies to make sure my data is secure, so thus far I find the implementation to be just as... Uplifting, shall we say, as the concept.
In my world only certain public services have even vaguely comparative speeds of access to data, such as Pokemon centres. As I understand it, the only reason Pokemon centres are capable of sending and receiving so much data as they are is due to a revolution in the compression of Pokemon and item data. Cellular phones are yet fairly expensive to the average civilian, and while many private industries have expanded beyond the use of dial-up internet, it is still in regular public usage.
With that said, I will await your responses.

What's dial-up internet?
Re: Video
Dial-up internet makes use of installed phone lines to connect to the various databases around the world. If a phone was in use by the internet, it could not be used to make a call.
While even this world has some forms of physical connection available to hook up computers, such systems are by far more advanced than those of dial up and phone lines.
icon keywords i guesss
Well, yeah. But... Dial-Up sounds like it means you can't be on the internet and make a phone call at the same time! That's really awful. What if you're chatting online to a friend but want to call them too because you can?
Text is cool, but it's text, you know?
