- Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! This time I answered a question that's legitimately kept me up at night for the last week when I asked myself where this wild digital landscape truly begin, today we visit the "hello world" of the Internet and even visit is using the methods of the original systems ever designed. Thanks for watching!

WOW
AOL CHAT ROOMS... Muta this was 1995 and I was 15... those chats were insane and it's was infinite rooms. I remember I hit a bunch if random keys in the chat search bar and got a chat that ended up being a hacker chat room. I got some cool hack tools back then and made friends with some. One chick I remeber called me on the phone she and was friend with this other hacker we knew and she was trying to give me phone cards to call her all the time. I was like wtf do I need those I can use my phone lol. Yeah I was a idiot poser script kiddy.. my bro friend was hacking phone booths with a crystal electric device he made.
If this surprises you then imagine what the secret agencies, like the CIA, uses nowadays to use the internet or even more advanced than today.
My friend Robert and I graduated high school around 1986, and he went on to teach adults about computers at the local community college. We were in the "computer club" together in HS. One day, I stopped over to his apartment around 1989. He had a WANG (real name) tower, with a dial up modem, and he was telling me about this new system that the teachers around the country could chat on. It was FERN? or something like that.. God it has been forever. All greenscreen BBS systems... Was super cool. He would always tell me to put whatever money I had, into this company called "Microsoft"... I was like, sure, ok man....LOL... RIP Robert
Very cool John. I genuinely don't know what you're talking about but as a zoomer I am learning to understand computers from the inside out. 👍
@@ChudSneedNfeed very cool none of us asked :)
That's wild. Sorry for the loss of your friend. I'm studying these things myself, so hearing how computers were all these years ago is always fascinating to me.
To think that tech was state of the art back then, boy does time fly. RIP to your buddy man.
Good story and hope you listened to Robert! :D rip
What's next, Muta builds a working time machine in his home?
No, he does your mom.
Don't give this crazy man any ideas.
Using his a phone and microwave perhaps? Maybe uses some bananas as a test subjects?
He just replicated Homer Simpson's toaster time machine, easier and cheaper than figuring it all out from scratch
E
The early Internet is so good, even Mutahar's webcam went out of focus for a bit.
LMAO tru
Mf it’s so old it made my eyes go out of focus
Dial up, Buffering.. kbps & mbps.
Paying for Cable Network *shrugs*
What couldn't go wrong? 😂😂😂
I remember pausing videos until it buffered enough for a few seconds 😂
I remember calling local fido node to “download” uuencoded jpegs
I still do that
F lol
I remember going downstairs to get a drink while AN image loaded. And not even a really hi-res image either.
I remember to download 1 song it would take all night. Plus, you had to hope that no one would pick up the landland or call your house because it would stop the internet connection 🙂
50kbps in 1969 was blazing fast, when you concider that in the late 90's. we we getting 57kbps offered from AOL as BLAZING FAST at the time. Of course, me and my nerd computer scientist roommate at the time had a dedicated dual ISDN line installed into our apartment for a whopping 128K speed in order to play Quake, which you had to manually input the server IP to join in the console. What did it cost us for this luxury in 1997? 350 bucks a month, that we happily split so that we could have 20 second ping on Quake multiplayer servers, ladies and gentelmen.
I miss the good old days of rocket jumps and rabbit hops of good old fashioned Quake.
Stories like this are why I still love the Internet
My first modem was a 300 baud. For years AT&T limited end consumers out of the technology that would have skyrocketed us all into a golden era of... whatever this internet is today, lol.
Technically the jumps and hops can be done on other games, but then again that was inspired by Quake so I get what you mean
Holy Shit.
That reminds me of when I had DSL and used it to play CoD and Minecraft with my friends ( with ping never beneath 250 of course). The speed tests for our DSL showed 2.5 MbPS on a good day. I feel like a king nowadays with gigabit at home and 5G in my pocket.
I was on school trip at CERN and while listening to the guide I look at random sreen box in front of me. A metal plate stating "Worlds first internet server". Was pretty fun to be there
This machine is a server. DO NOT POWER IT DOWN!! :)) Was there a few days ago, mighty awesome place! Unfortunately the LHC was closed for safety tests...
I used to visit my cousin at christmas time each year. He was a couple years older than me and really into computers. He taught me how to use my commodore 64 properly.
I remember one year in the early 90s he showed me this chat room thing he was a member of. It was more of a forum I suppose. Blew my mind that he was able to see what people were writing and could contribute and other people could respond.
Then around '95 we started to get modems a little more wide spread and people actually started getting online.
Such a crazy time to be alive.
Definitely the biggest change in human history since electricity was discovered.
I still have a commodore 64 breadbin that I restored (circa 1982). With a modem attachment, it can connect to rudimentary bulletin boards.
It's so old, the floppy disk drive was itself a computer purely for communication over serial.
My parents bought me a C-64 for Christmas when I was 11.
How tf am I so old? Time is a runaway freight train.
@@SlavTiger lol .. I hear you! I had the (audio!) cassette tape drive for my C-64.
@@SlavTiger Ahh, the olden days of parallel/com ports, baud, and programs like Telix, and ProComm
Aye, you kiddos have it so good with your fancy USB ports and native browser clients! You'll never know the pains of LOST CARRIER because you forgot to use a *70,,, In your ATDT! 😂
Same. I have 2 breadbin C64's and a VIC-20. I like to browse and leave messages on boards from time to time.
I remember when youtube first came out, I was a child. UA-cam was just a search bar. No ads, no recommended, you either knew the name of the video or you didn't
TRUE
It was so fun to just search and discover videos naturally. The recommended truly shows you things tailored and related to what you have already watched
there were always 'featured videos' on the homepage. but it was just one of many websites that you could upload videos to. wasn't owned by google. google had a competitor site called 'google video'.
@@DSP-gh5ei that's what it does today... 'recommended' didn't exist back then because it didn't keep track of your watch history. that's what the 'history' tab in your web browser was for. websites didn't track anything back then unless you made an account, and the only reason you'd create an account on youtube back then was if you wanted to upload.
I wish someone would find a copy of old AOL message boards and bring them back online. There was so much 90s internet culture lost when those shut down
they were never taken down, they are still up
just firewalled like crazy to keep people out pretty sure
Was humor as much as an inside joke culture like memes have been? I grew up with shit like "all your base are belong to us" etc and I've always been convinced those were the first memes on the internet.
@@4hoofd Prior to sites like Fark and Something Awful in early 2000s, not really. There were trends and fads in the different communities, some of the common ones being l33t speak and obnoxious anime emoticons ^^;, and the proto-memes like Hamster Dance and AYB.
Our modern idea of memes didn't really take shape until the mid-00s around when 4chan splintered off from Something Awful and image macros became more common.
Before that there was the idea of "catchphrases" on SA which were basically text-based memes.
I wish hackers could get xband modems and servers back online. That was online gaming before PlayStation.
@@verstamp Must have been quite an experience to see internet culture build up from phase 1. The origins of things have always been so interesting to me. Imagine being the first person to type 1337 and have it blow up as big as it did lmao. I’ve definitely experienced some of what you listed, but I was way too young to truly comprehend what I was seeing. Not to mention that I didn’t speak English back then lol.
this is really interesting, the birth of the internet. It feels good having a chill video again from muta.
L imagine having to buy a an account with 1.5 million subs just to upload roblox slop
@@ihaveabombandahostage 1 mil sub and total views below 800k

I'm guessing it sub-botted, then?
@@beet158that or a bought account, accounts like these tend to pop up a lot. Not sure if UA-cam does anything about them, though
@@beet158 nope, probs actual accout but the owner deleted all videos and sold it
My father was doing his Bachelor in Math and they had access to internet back in the days .
i'm talking 1990 , We had access to all kind of FTP site . I remember playing Wolfenstein 3d , Doom , Heretic ...Those game where the beginning of it all for FPS .
We had a accoustic modem , we were using those old turn number phone ... it's amazing how far we come ..
loved it when the internet netted itself into existence, truly a moment of all time
Im glad you were there.
@@Fractal_blipI'm glad you were there
@@samueldaniels8415I'm glad you were there.
i actually visited this site a couple weeks ago, it was in the textbook for one of the classes im taking this semester. was pretty interesting
10:50 you skipped over one of the best parts of the first test. The first data sent over was just supposed to be the word "login". 'l' and 'o' went over fine but the 'g' caused a crash, after they got it set back up they were able to send "login" over the network. So technically the first 3 letters ever successfully sent over the internet were "lol" (with a crash between the o and second l). look up leonard kleinrock first internet words and you'll find video of him recounting the story, he was the one typing.
holy heck hey guys
hey
what’s up how’s your day
Imagine jerma would just comment under mutas video
Sup
Hey big boy
Can we all appreciate how hard indian tech man works for all of us ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I actually got to go to CERN and see the computer that initially hosted the web. A sticky note is still attached warning people not to turn it off.
You know it’s a nice to see muta make a video during the daylight. I know how much he struggles with sleeping properly so it’s just a nice little feeling seeing him bright eyed during the day
When people used this service, there was still a "West Germany"
that was 1989
It is truly mind fucking to think about all the tech I've grown up along with past by
the good old days when websites werent bloated heaps of dog poop wrapped in cat poop. everything else has advanced, yet somehow websites are slower and worse because that one marketing person, decided to force the developer to add in a useless animation to make a button slide in from the right and do a cartwheel.
I blame java script i mean heck the creator of the language days its shit. He made it in only a few days
this was a fun video thanks for sharing this! love it when you make videos like these
It's a shame that not a lot of content from that era was preserved.
People didn't think much about archival because storage was expensive, bandwidth was very limited, and not everyone had access to the internet.
"the lantern corps have one rule. No one is allowed to see the creation of time.."
I had to go rewatch the first YT video Jaws at the Zoo because of this iykyk
These types of vids are my favourite, would love a series or smth talking about the early internet
I remember scrolling through something about how the internet began on the CERN website during highschool. It's cool to get a more in depth explanation of it from you, I remember wanting to try to read about everything butt I had to stop because I would always get too distracted and probably didn't understand it anyway. I'd end up procrastinating my assignments and going through rabbit holes everywhere while I was making powerpoints for my engineering class, I remember I was making it about the new HL-LHC upgrade. The next year the same thing happened when I was explaining the history of accelerators, cyclotrons, and decelerators and how they could be useful. My teacher probably hated grading them and trying to fact check them lol.
I love old internet stuff. Like, the fact that you used to be able to get onto new groups through Outlook is cool, the old aesthetic of it, how blogs such as Angel Fire came about. It’s just so good
These are the kinds of videos I want to see more of. Great stuff, love computer/internet history.
Man, this takes me back to the early days of using Netscape and learning how to use the website via reading this massive book on how to use the internet and Netscape itself. Complete with colour drawings of talking floppy disks giving you basic instructions and tips.
Fascinating journey back to how the internet used to be. Really puts into perspective just how far we've come. Miss the simplicity, but wouldn't trade modern tech conveniences.
I feel old, like you, and doesn’t get any better, as the days come by.
But, oh well. C’est la vie.
There was a Day we didn’t realise we watched the last haunted gaming:(
By the first website you can tell the Internet was a product of engineers and scientists and not of corporations.
Hey Mutahar, very cool edutainment video I'd like to see more of this (historical tech). A different idea I kinda was thinking about is to have a few (or at least one) video about, what would be the oldest machine that one could use in a pinch as a daily driver without compromising security (any further than with win10-11) and with as much usability as possible? Example, is there somewhere a "magic" linux distro that can handle webbrowsing, maybe a single google doc page or at least a text editor and a gui browser (youtube 480p capability optional, if you have a way to download and play vids that way) while running on a meager 1 core sub-1Ghz cpu with 256 mb ram and an age appropriate gpu? I personally kinda like this challenge, to find how low can one go today to still exist online (be able to shitpost, do taxes, fill out forms, and watch videos).
Thank you for giving a tour of what it was like to when I first experienced the internet, which was the old "trumpet winsock" days of Win 3.1
Man, this is so cool. It’s crazy how far we’ve come as a society
This makes me understand, why my parents don't know how to work the internet.
You would have a great time talking to my computer history teacher. This entire video is relevant to what we are learning about right now. I love learning about how it all started, very interesting. I would love more videos like this
That office chair is a beast, nice throne cyber king
Nostalgic Web Surfing is Back!!!
Thanks or making me feel old MUTA. I remember those mono chromatic monitors. Vaguely.
This is pretty cool, please do more like this thanks
This wave of nostalgia makes me want to cry. I remember being in college and NO ONE wanted to use the x- terms in our computer lab. So when all the windows PCs and Macs were taken up, they'd sit waiting... And I'd jump straight to the xterm because I knew how to use it to pull up a browser. And telnet??? College in the early 2000s we used Telnet to get to our email. I was firing either CMD to go to Telnet or later using Putty. And being a CS major, I lived on Telnet to upload all my programs. Next you need to show the children the old mobile net, back when you couldn't just fire up any site you wanted. And if you had a site, you needed to make sure you had a mobile version coded and set your site to go to mobile... Otherwise you were not accessing it.
I think you should do a video on the old Bulletin Boards (BBS). Some of them were crazy places to hang out, from the records I've read. You can still dial into some of them today.
My favorite take from you to date. I seen't what you did here, growing your "older" audience.
One of your best videos. Thank you.
This is the kind of video i NEED to appreciate. ❤ i love the expansion of technology
God damn I fucking love this shit Muta! What a fucking champ you are for taking us back down memory lane like this! Mad respect!
I'm 36 and started with MS- DOS so this video brought me back and it was pretty interesting stuff. Windows 3.1 was where I jammed for years haha
Muta having those late night thoughts after a successful bake and spitting out curious videos.
People mocked Al Gore for his comment, but look at how tough it is to pass any meaningful legislation that betters public education and libraries today. He deserves kudos.
Man, why copy my comment from pyrocynicals video on Helldivers 2?
you feel old ? the first evar screen from a computer i saw in person was monochrome , yup karataka in mono at least the "sound" was still good i spose that was the first pc game i evar done did play and that was at school ! great vid muta thanks for the reminder of days past
4:56 your voice sounds like the intro to Inner Urge by joe henderson
This video sure took me back in time. My first office job was 1976 in a DP (Data Processing) department as a key-to-disk operator (which is where data was put on a 5" floppy disk and then put into the computer). I later became a computer operator and then a programmer. We had an IBM mainframe which was programmed in RPG and, for your younger audience, no, that does not mean Role Playing Game. :-) There was no internet and no personal computers or cell phones and life was good. 🙂
My favorite thing, even though I’m like 18, is reading old IRC chats from the beginning of Operation Desert Storm, and that’s back in January 1991. If you read it, you’d think it’s like a discord chat talking about a war that just begun, like global political servers talking about the Russian Invasion of Ukraine, it’s really crazy to think about that imo.
This was a breathe of fresh air indeed thanks Muta
My school in Aurora had a 100 Mega bit backbone built into it as it was a cutting edge new school. It started having access to the internet in January 1994. We would use a dialer program and an attached phone line with a receiver to call to U of T to be able to access their library mainframe. You had to talk to a person and they would manually connect your computer to it then you could hang up the receiver. It wasn't until the fall of that year that we even could start to browse the web with Netscape. Weird to think I have been using the internet for 30 years now....
LMFAO!! I died at around 10 mins when I heard what the first operating system was called.
Linux is such an incredible platform (in reality, many many operating systems including Android smartphones, recognizable by names like Unix and Gnome, scripting languages like Bash, et al). But it can be difficult to actually learn about computers because of clashing proprietary technology and software. I seriously recommend anyone who has a love for computers to explore the world of Linux for themselves, even if you've never used it before. That would open up a completely new can of worms that you will see literallys builds and transcends devices in the modern age .
Almost 40. I remember ye olden days
I have the same chair. Very comfy.
Very interesting! How long until BBS exploration with Muta video?
My grandfather build a computer back in the day. In the 80s.
No way…I was wondering this literally last night
Honestly, This video should’ve been titled “Har browses the old archived fishing-net for 17 straight minutes without taking his medication”.
Muta should show off some old-school MUDs, some of which are still running since the late 80's/early 90's.
I remember using the internet at the end of the 90's. Well, using is kind of misleading but I do remember bits and pieces. Using specific software to search the web, Altavista...
Also remember seeing IRC back in the day. I know it's still used today... but you know, back then, it was where you would communicate with various people.
I have been to this site, crazy to think how far internet and computers in general have come.
it's incredible how many people thought the internet was just a flash in the pan back then.
On the other hand though, some people saw basically everything we have today coming right away, smart phones and smart-everything being the main one, all the advertising, people were calling it right away.
Magnetic tapes and disks sent through USPS brings me nightmares. I remember the physical gymnastics I had to go through with a 5 inch floppy and get into the library without erasing all the info. I can see USPS not erasing a ton of info back in the day.
Nice video! Me encantan este tipo de cosas xD i didn't know that was the first "browser" but I think I like more the machines that the early internet was running on
The early days of the internet were so good. Back when times were simple...
Tandy 1000TL, my first PC. 286 and a 10 Mb HD that I thought I would never be able to fill. When I upgraded to a 50 Mb HD, thought I'd be set for life. Excuse me, I need to go create some ascii animations... spoon masters assemble.
In computing, the SEX assembly language mnemonic has often been used for the "Sign EXtend" machine instruction found in the Motorola 6809. A computer's or CPU's "sex" can also mean the endianness of the computer architecture used.
Muta , please bring us back to the beginning of the Universe . 😢
My favorite early internet story was back in the days of dialup: a friend called me to ask if downloading a file from a German website constituted a long distance phone call.
Oh man, that terminal access to the website. Used to daisy chain BBSs to get outside of my calling area without paying for long distance, and one of the nodes was to a nearby collage which had real Internet access. I used that to access MTV's website and download the video for Peaches by Presidents of the United States of America.
5.25 floppy drives, 1.44 drives, Ms Dos 6.0, 6.22.....Win 3.01, Win 3.1...... my first home computer was a RadioShack Tandy, later a 386 and 486, used PET / Commodore 64 in elementary school, the good old days!
I loved the late 90s - early 2000s internet when no-one knew how to use it proper. It was a crazy fun time.
I still remember when internet was consumer, but websites were not (at least on AOL), AOL didn't add a web browser until 1995 or 1996 so there were actually a few years where most of America's usage of the internet was litterally just AOL's client services and keyword pages.
Muta: Let there be web
Internet: *manifests into existence*
hey first time i see you is mutahar laugh and i was like wtf is mutahar means and here we are thnx for being on YT
"Towards the end of 1990" my god, I turned 1 year old in Nov. of 1990... this is the coolest thing I've ever seen, probably, besides videos showing Windows 3 or it's later versions, or Windows 2 or Windows 1; Windows 1 was the ONLY version of Windows when my brother was born in '86.
My experience doesn’t go quite that far back, but I do remember when I was very, very young, just barely out of diapers at the end of the 80s into the very early 90s, the first computer my patents had was an old Tandy. I don’t think the brand exist anymore but was a reasonably popular maker of home PCs. It predated operating systems like windows, only had a 5.25 floppy drive, and didn’t even have a mouse as there wasn’t yet any graphical user interfaces yet. Whatever you wanted to do, you had to do it thru the DOS command prompt and accessed a proto internet called BBS. For some reason they let me play with it on my own and eventually learned to run games and even get on the bulletin board system. I made a pen pal, browsed an few sci fi message boards, and kept trying to download commercially available games but couldn’t ever figure it out. Good times
To me that is still the most based way to browse, the only thing missing is displaying media, but with today's internet speed it wouldn't even be an issue.
No distractions or brain rot, just information available to every device, fast.
insane stuff bro
in de beningging. inde ina de ina de benininging. yeah. ina de beninging (listen properly), people went outside
No, no, no, it's absolutely insane, but Xerox made a home PC with a GUI equipped with a big button ball mouse, back in the late 70s.
For like the cost of two cars.
I remember connecting to BBS' via a 110 baud manual dial mode,
Every few years I realize a few years has passed.
Cool video! I'm surprised you didn't try going to Wikipedia to see how it works.
I started using computers as a toddler and was learning to code by the time I was 11, these days I'm disabled and mostly play turtle wow all day but I love old Internet lore.
Now, Muta's surfing on the internet!
Dr Muta, and his trusty Virtual Machine Box which he uses to safely travel through the internet. Passing beyond time and space!
Back in my day,
When I was your age,
You and your new fangled technology,
these are all responses that come to mind.
and yes, I remember BBS and old website
including the nightmare fuel of Geocities user created websites
12:40 what's even more crazy or insane is applying that same principle to now. Imagine that in 60 years from now (most likely less, actually) people will each be carrying around a device with more processing power than every computer that exists in an entire state right now.
Recently I had the same excat thought and did like all the things you did i this video too. xD
