AISubs v3.7
B.S. Teleton
Today, we are not in Akihabara, but in Kanda, which is next door.
That's right. Oh, is it next door?
It's next door.
Oh, is it?
That's why I like this place.
Oh, you showed me earlier.
There is a museum that opened around here in 2023.
Museum?
I'd like to go there.
Oh, where is it?
I'm excited.
Well, let's go.
Yes.
Doesn't it feel like that? It feels like a museum.
Oh, you want to eat, don't you?
You want to eat, don't you?
Good evening, I'm Sato Rika of Nogizaka46.
Today is the last broadcast of the year, so thank you for your hard work this year.
This time's theme is "PC, Gadgets Exterminate".
This media museum is based on the idea of "exterminating media other than paper and stone".
Approximately 1,500 or more exhibits are displayed here.
Let's learn about the PC, which once boasted of being a movie,
and why it was exterminated in this museum.
This is the director, Kawai-san, who will guide us today.
This is the main floor.
There are historical and epoch-making items here.
In this row of PCs, do you have any memorable ones?
- Oh, here it is! - Here it is again!
In a previous show, we introduced various kinds of PCs.
- We also introduced this one of them. - You did?
This row is like an Apple history book.
This row is often used as an icon.
When you think of Mac, you think of this shape.
- I've had that before. - It's an '86 model.
- Is it the first one? - It's about the second generation of the first model.
This shape was very revolutionary at the time.
- Is the man next to the PC Steven? - Yes!
- Steve... - Steve...
- Steve Jobs, right? - Oh, that's him!
- Yes, I know him very well. - What kind of image do you have of him?
I have the impression that he must have been smart since childhood.
Yes, he was a very strange person.
- Actually, Apple has been kicked out of the company. - What?!
After developing this model...
- They were kicked out of the company by their own CEO. - What?!
- Actually, Apple wasn't around for a long period of time. - I didn't know about that.
- Then, they created this black computer called "Next Cube". - I see.
- At that time, they also became a sponsor of a company called "Pixar". - I see.
- They created a company that made "Toy Story" and "CG" movies. - I see.
- So, they created this company. - I see.
- While they were doing this... - Yes.
- In fact, there was a time when Apple was about to disband in 1997. - Oh, was there such a crisis?
- Yes. - Oh, was there such a crisis?
- At that time, Apple's manager changed his mind. - I see.
- He decided to call back Steve Jobs. - I see.
- At that time, this Mac OS was getting old. - I see.
- So, he decided to transfer this "Next" OS that Steve was making outside to Mac. - I see.
- So, he decided to transfer this "Next" OS that Steve was making outside to Mac. - In the end, Steve was involved in it for a long time.
- Steve... - Yes.
- Steve's... - Yes.
- Steve's success story. - I see.
- Once Steve was disbanded and driven out of the company, the company in front of him bought back what he had created outside. - I see.
- It's a miracle. - I see.
- So, from this point on, Apple is making a comeback. - I see.
- It's sudden, but here's a quiz! - Oh, it's sudden!
- Yes. - Oh, it's sudden!
- You've all touched this iMac, right? - Yes.
- This iMac was involved in a boom. - Yes.
- There's a boom. - Yes.
- What kind of boom was it? - Yes.
- "Honyarara" boom. - Is it this one?
- Yes. - Yes.
- "Mochihakobi" (carrying) - "Mochihakobi" (carrying)
- Do you carry this around? It's quite heavy. - I like it.
- There's a handle, right? - There is.
- Didn't it go as far as a boom? - Yes.
- Certainly, it was new. It has a handle. - Yes.
- Oh! - Yes.
- So... - "Koutou" boom.
- "Koutou" boom.
- The back is like this... - Yes.
- It's slippery. - It's slippery.
- The hairstyle is also arranged in a room. - Yes.
- It's like, "Wouldn't it look better if I raised this part?" - It's funny.
- But "boom", the shape of the back looks like a hair. - That's right.
- The correct answer is "skeleton boom". - Ah! That's it!
- You said it, didn't you? - You said it, didn't you?
- We had already studied it. - Oh, did you?
- We had prepared it properly, but we forgot it. - We forgot it.
- Not only the computer, but also the power switch and other things that weren't transparent suddenly started to be transparent in 1998. - Yes.
- But the next Mac had this kind of taste, so it was white and similar to the current Apple. - Stylish.
- Because of that, it started to feel old-fashioned, and "skeleton boom" ended. - It ended.
- Next question. - Yes!
- "iMac"'s "i" is a small letter, isn't it? - Yes.
- What does it mean? - "International"
- Oh! It's close! - What is it?
- "internet" - That's correct!
Great!
The concept was that the internet could be easily created, so you got it right!
- Yay! - Amazing!
- You got it right right away. - Right?
- I didn't know you'd push me so much. - It's delicious!
- Right? - It's delicious!
- I didn't know you'd push me so much. - Right?
- It's delicious! - It's delicious!
Then, Yumiki...
I think you taught me a lot of things.
Out of all those cute things, what's your favorite computer?
- Out of all those cute things, what's your favorite computer? - Yes!
- My... - Wait a minute!
- Thank you for asking! - It's so cute!
- My favorite is this one!
- Oh, it's here! - Oh, it's here!
Actually, this style is only available for this generation.
The next one was already a thin board, so it was closer to the current iMac.
At the time, we were trying to figure out how to connect this new panel and the main body, which are still small,
and when Jobs is walking in the sunflower field,
how about facing yourself like a sunflower with Jonathan Ive?
- Oh, this is a sunflower idea! - It's stylish!
- Right? - Yes.
- And this is the tray where the CD-Rom comes out. - Oh, it's this one!
- Wow! - I thought it was something.
But it's so round, and this "Mac" mark is a mirror.
Oh, you're right! It's reflected!
- Oh, makeup check! - Right?
- Here's a quiz for you. - Yes!
- This is called "iMac G4". - Oh, "G4".
- Right? This shape. - Yes.
- This was given a nickname in Japan. - Oh, I wonder what it is!
- "Grandpa"! - "Grandpa"!
- "Grandpa"! Why? Why? - "Grandpa"!
- Oh, "Grandpa", from the name here. - Oh!
- If you were to give it a nickname from this shape... - From here?
- What would you name it? - "Shiratama-chan"
- "Shiratama-chan"! - What? What?
- That's so close! - What?
- That's so close! - What? What?
- But it's "Shiratama-chan", isn't it? - What?
- And white and similar... - Mochi.
- Mochi! Mochi! - What? What?
- Mochi! - Isn't it mochi?
- Mochi! - What's mochi mochi?
- Snowman. - Snowman! That's so close!
- Mochi and snowman combined... - Combined?
- Mochi and snowman... - You can eat it now.
- It's "Yukimi Daifuku"! - Correct!
- It's called "Daifuku". - Daifuku!
- This is "Daifuku mochi" and "Yukimi Daifuku". - That's so close!
- Japanese people feel this specialness. - That's right!
- It feels like powder, doesn't it? - Yes, even if you touch it...
- It's "nashiji". - I think people like "nashiji".
- That's right! - So, now we have one answer for each of you.
- Wow! - Wow!
- Congratulations! - Thank you!
So, today's topic...
Why did these computers disappear?
A new one comes out and it gets old.
- Why don't we just keep using old computers? - That's true.
Oh, I know!
Batteries like batteries and chargers...
- They don't sell anymore. - Oh, that's one reason.
If you can't change your laptop or computer, it might get bigger and explode.
- But there's another reason. The internet. - It doesn't work anymore.
- That's correct! - Wow!
- To be precise, you don't have updates for your computer anymore. - I see.
- You also have iPhones and smartphones. - Yes, I do.
As a manufacturer, you don't have to deal with viruses anymore.
So, if you use a computer for about 10 years, you won't have OS support anymore.
So, you either use it as a hobby or go to a warehouse or a garbage bin.
The reason why old computers are no longer used is...
...not because of the deterioration of the hardware, but because of the lack of OS support.
Without the OS, you can't use it, and it will naturally disappear.
So only new things can survive.
Don't you see old cars driving around?
Oh, yes, retro cars.
Very low-priced cars.
- Low-priced, low-priced. - Very low-priced.
And it seems that these Apple products also helped mice.
This is the history of Apple mice.
This is 1986, and this is 2008.
Have you ever touched a mouse like this?
- Yes, we have. - We have.
This is the newest wireless mouse.
- It's a laser-focused one. - Wireless.
We saw this mouse with the skeleton mouse earlier.
That's right.
As an iMac's first mouse, it's round, so it's called a hockey mouse.
- Hockey. - Oh, I see.
It's like ice hockey.
And it's cute in the back.
- It's got a two-ton mouse ball. - Oh, I see.
And you can change the Apple logo from white to green here.
- Oh, I see. It's stylish. - Yeah.
And this is the hockey mouse.
It's an old mouse. This is the first Apple mouse.
- Please touch it. - Like this?
Yes, like this.
- There's only one place you can press it. - Only one place.
Apple's Steve Jobs was obsessed with making the mouse into one button.
- Oh, I see. - Oh, I see.
And since the era when buttons were classified as areas,
- you couldn't tell where to press. - No, you couldn't. Where do you press?
The whole thing sinks like this, but look.
- This white area is submerged. - Oh, you're right.
- So you can press it from all sides. - It's hidden.
- So you don't have to worry about it coming off. - Oh, you're right.
- If you press it like this... - Oh, you're right.
- You can press it anywhere. - It's easy to use.
It seems to have a history of trial and error.
- For example, the more you go back, the more the mouse goes up. - That's right.
- So, your wrist goes up a little. - It's easy to see.
- But look at the next model. - It's going down.
- Why is that? - What is it? Did you hurt this tendon or something like that?
- That's right! After all, everyone knows that their wrists hurt and bend like this.
- That's why you lower your stomach. - I see.
- In addition, there are black balls and white balls here. - I see.
Please lift both of them up.
- It's light. - Yes.
- Is it light? - That's right. The first generation is light.
- If it's light, sometimes the ball doesn't come with it. - I see.
- This one is heavier. - I like the heavier one.
- It's easier to install. - I see.
- At that time, the ball part of the mouse was at the bottom. - I see.
- But now, the mouse is at the top. - That's right. Why is that?
- It's in the middle of this part. - I see.
- When you do this, it's better to put the pointer near your wrist or fingertips. - I see.
- It's more delicate. - That's right.
- If you put it here, it becomes like this. - I see.
- The wrist doesn't move like this, does it? - No.
- At that time, the resolution of the computer was high, so the position of the mouse was rough.
- But as the resolution becomes thousands of pixels, you can change the position of the laser toward your finger.
- It looks simple, but you can see that various improvements are being made.
- It's getting more and more delicate.
- How long has it changed?
- That's right. This is 1986, and it's been 7 or 8 years around here.
This is 90's, and this is 2000's.
- Well, it's about 10 years apart. - Ah, Senpai, that's quite a while.
- So, the ball is gone from here. - I see.
- From here, it's the era of lasers. - 2000's, I see.
- The ball had dust on it, and you had to clean it up. - That's tough.
- So you'd do it like this... - Ah, you'd do it like that!
- You'd do it like this... - Ah, you can't get the ball out!
- You'd clean up the dust on it. - I didn't know that!
- But you don't need maintenance like that anymore. - That's easy!
- So, it's history of eliminating things that users find troublesome. - Thank you!
- That's it for Mars' segment. - Thank you very much!
Next up is the Japanese-made laptop segment.
- So, this is the history of laptops. - Oh, a laptop!
- Before you had laptops, you had typewriters like this. - Ah, here it is!
- You can play music with this! - That's amazing!
- Actually, this right here is a pretty historical laptop. - It's pretty heavy!
- This is a 1978 microcomputer. Well, a "laptop" is a personal computer, but...
- ...this is what they called a "microcomputer" back in the day.
- This right here... Look at this! - Ah, music!
- Cassettes!
- Why do you think there are cassettes here? - For recording?
- Ah, for recording. Do you record voices?
- Actually, this was before floppy disks and CD-ROMs existed...
- ...so you would load programs from cassettes. - Ah, I see!
- Back in the day, "fax" was like "p-hyarara-gara-gara-gara" - Ah! I remember now!
- You know what "fax" is, right? - Yes, we know.
- It's like that. The program's data is recorded with sound...
- ...and the computer reads it and finally starts up.
- Isn't this keyboard cute? - It's cute!
- It's completely different from now. - Yeah.
- "Nufu" is "nufu". - "Nufu"! - "Nufu"!
- "Nufu", "nufu". - "Nufu", yes, "nufu" is an interesting way of saying it.
There's also "heart clover".
There's also a "nogizaka" mark.
- Huh? - There's a "nogizaka" mark.
- There's also an "n"! - Wow!
Oh, sorry, I got too excited.
- Huh?! - Yes, and this is...
...the first notebook and computer made in Japan...
- Oh, it's inside! - ...at the time.
Among them, it is said to be famous for...
Yes, this is the first Toshiba Dynabook.
- Wow! - Wow, Dynabook!
- Yes, Dynabook is still around. - Yes, it is.
- Dynabook. - Dynabook.
It's a model called "j3100ss".
- Try hitting the keyboard. - Huh? How is it?
- How does it feel? - It's strange.
- What does it feel like? - It's a little different from what you just felt.
It's like a little hard...
- ...hard gum. - Huh?!
- Oh, you're right! - What... what...
- Is it hard? - It's firm and comfortable to hold.
In other words, the ski touch is quite good and...
...if you look at it from the side, it's a little like a staircase.
- It's like a platform, isn't it? - It's like a platform.
It's a little flatter now, but...
...it's like this because it's easy to use.
Here's a quiz about this notebook and computer.
- This Dynabook... - Dynabook.
- ...j3100ss... - SS?!
- What does this "ss" mean?! - Wow!
Dynabook j3100ss.
Do you know what this "ss" means?
- Whoa! It's close! - Huh?!
- The back is cool, too. - Oh, you're right!
- There's a silver one! - There's a silver one!
- It's my first time looking back, too. - Oh, you're right!
- Thanks to this show, we'll be able to look back. - Huh?!
The show's original game "Denpa-to" is selling well for 980 yen!
We'll also be introducing our impressions of the show, so please give it a try!
Learning about the "Exterminator" from the "Exterminator Media Museum"
Dynamic J3100SS
What does "SS" mean?
What does "SS" mean?!
"SS"?
"SS" is...
Is it that thing? The size of clothes?
- Yeah, it's close! - It's close?
- It's small. - Yeah, it's small.
Super small.
- Whoa, it's close! - Huh?!
- Wow! - Wow!
- Well, it's thick now, - Super slim.
- but from the concept of the time, it was super slim. - Super slim.
- No, not at all. - Wow.
- Yes, it was. - Very slim.
However, there was a laptop that was even slimmer than this Dynabook.
And that was...
- It became a hot topic, after all. - Wow, it's smaller and slimmer.
- And there's more space. - Sony's BIO.
- There used to be a battery here, but it's gone now. - Oh, I see what you mean!

- Isn't it a little bumpy? - Oh!
- You've noticed something good! - Huh?!
- It's light! It's a picture! - Huh?!
- It's bumpy now, right? - Yes, it's bumpy.
- But it's still a picture. - Huh?!
- Wow, it's stylish! - It's good that you call bumps "bumpy".
- Bumpy! - It's bumpy.
- The reason why it's a picture is...
- In order to make it bumpy, you need thickness, right? - Oh, I see.
- So the designer decided to make it look like a shadow. - Oh!
- Wow! It's so stylish! - It's so stylish!
- If you look at it from a distance... - Yeah.
- It's bumpy. - It's bumpy.
- Take a look. It starts from here. - It's that thin?

- It's coming out! - A D.S.!
- A touch pen! - Huh?!
- And... - Is it here?
- That's right! - Huh?!
- How did you know? I didn't think it was here. - That's right.
- If it's D.S., it's below... - Yeah.
- I see! What do you draw here? - I draw and do detailed work.
- You draw? - Yeah.
- Wow! It's so convenient! - Yeah.

- Oh!
- It moves! - You can take it yourself.
- It's nice! - It's open?
- It's a house! - It's a house!
- It's so fun! - You can take it yourself.

- 505 Extreme. - Wow!
- It's a board! - It's a board!
- It's thin! - It's really thin.
- Where do you think the computer is? - Here?
- It's only here. - It's only this big.
- It's only the keyboard here. - It's really thin.
- Usually, there's a battery or something under here, right? - Yes.
- It gets thicker, doesn't it? - Yes.
- It's only here. - It's thin, so...
- It got bumpy. - Yes.
- It got bumpy. - Did it get bumpy?
- Yes.
- It did. - It got a little bumpy.
- It got a little bumpy.
- Yes, a little.
- SONY, which launched the BIO series, has even created a computer like this.
- Look at this! - Wow!
- Huh?! - What?!
- This is a little weird, isn't it? - It's weird.
- The way it's arranged. - It's honest.
- What do you think it's for? - Myself...
- But does it only show you? - Huh?!
- It doesn't look that bad when you put it up. - This is...
- Like this... - Wow! It's wide!
- It's a computer that can do live streaming. - Wow!
- And there's a shutter button and a zoom button here. - Wow!
- Like this... - Wow!
- Webcams are usually short-sighted, - Yeah.
- but this one has a video camera and a computer attached to it. - Wow!
- So it's very protective. - It's easy to see. And it's easy to see the screen, too.
- Yeah, because it's big. - Yeah.
- And you can watch sports or weddings on this computer. - Wow!
- This is so cool! - It was like that in 2000.
- 2000?! - Wow!
- So, what caused this computer to go out of order? - Huh?!
- Someone said that it had too many functions, and that it should be separated. - Someone said that? Who said that?
- Huh? The president? - Yeah.
- What did you do with the functions you separated? - My cell phone!
- Oh! Correct! - Yay!
- I see. It's all in my cell phone now. - Yeah.
- Your cell phone is now your smartphone, right? - Yeah.
- And all of the video cameras are in your smartphone now. - That's right.
- So you don't have to carry all of these anymore. - Yeah.
- Well, if you're going to use your computer at home, you can use a big keyboard. - Yeah.
- You can do all of the rest with your smartphone. - Wow!
- So, the sub-note genre, which is filled with all kinds of hybrid things like this, has almost gone out of order. - Wow!
- As a result of the emergence of new gadgets and the end of support and so on, it has almost gone out of order. - Yeah.
- So, that's it for today. How did you like it, all three of you? - Yeah.
- It was so much fun. - Yeah, it was so much fun.
- So cute. - This is...
- I used to have this when I was in elementary school. - Yeah.
