Reminds me of the internet and phones overtaking newspapers. Show a work break room 1994, then 2003 (or maybe 2008) Or same in a waiting room, subway etc

A natural evolution, credit to the store for recognizing changing it up was the right thing to do, sometimes those things are obvious in retrospect but hard to see at the time.

Not everything changed. Focus on products sold did shift though.

This has to be made with AI. Look at the bottom left with that couple. Did they dig a tunnel through the building? A fake looking tunnel at that. And the 19.900 price? I’m not sure what country this supposed to be in, but that looks fishy…🤔

Now it’s probably a no-name mobile phone shop. Like ‘Wireless for less’ or some shit.

I went to college in ‘92 with the best electric typewriter available. Thank goodness i entered my 2nd year 1993 with a Scepter (IBM clone)laptop with A cd-rom accessory box and a chord that connected to a phone jack. I felt connected to the world!!
I mainly played games in my room, Ultimate DOOM and Duke Newkum! (Graduated on time!)

That ac unit that ran from at least 89 and ran 10 years… that might be the real hero
