It's 2024 and I just bought an S-VHS #VCR along with a standalone #tape rewinder. I'm part of a test group for a #popculture preservation project to digitise and archive #70s, #80s and #90s #TV ads and local news etc. before the tapes deteriorate to the point where they're unusable.
If you're in the UK and you have old home recorded #videotape, let me know!
Do you know where the term "spam" comes from? 🧐 It all started with SPAM, the canned meat! 🍖 Thanks to a 1970 Monty Python sketch where diners were overwhelmed by chanting "SPAM," 🎶 the term became linked to unwanted emails. 📧 Now, the iconic SPAM can is even a meme for digital clutter! 🤖
