Your attention.
3
Please.
4
May I have some?
5
Please.
6
What if I put up gameplay of Subway Surfer and used a robot voice?
7
Would that keep you stimulated?
8
Wikipedia says that people born between the year 1981 and 1996 are part of a group called Millennials.
9
And I am a 96 baby.
10
Hello, Year of the Rat.
11
What's up?
12
I'm cusping on that Millennial Gen Z line.
13
So I can relate to all you
14
Gen Z -ers, okay?
15
I know what cap means, I know what drip means, and I also don't remember where I was when 9 -11 happened.
16
However, Gen Z, there is a difference between us.
17
We're both a generation that grew up on the internet, but you grew up with the internet.
18
We grew up with the internet.
19
The internet didn't used to always look like this.
20
It has metamorphosized a multitude of times.
21
Now, if you talk to an older millennial, they'll tell you the horror stories of the late 90s internet,
22
how the internet used to be paired with your home's landline, and if you don't know what a landline is, good.
23
If you wanted to surf the net at blazing speeds of 7 kilobytes a second, then you couldn't use your telephone at the same time.
24
This was before texting even existed, so if you needed to talk to someone, you had to call them and look up their phone number in
25
that 20 pound weapon known as a phone book and then if someone else was using the internet, they'd get the pleasure of listening to...
26
Although, if I had to make a sound that represented the entire internet, it would sound exactly like this.
27
I didn't grow up with dial -up, but I did grow up in a time where the internet looked completely different.
28
By the time I was exploring the interwebs, we got speeds up to 1 megabyte per second.
29
So the highest quality video you could stream on YouTube was in 240p, or this big.
30
And it would still buffer.
31
A lot.
32
Gen Z, you weren't there when YouTube had a 5 -star scoring system
33
and the subscribe button was yellow and people would put these things all over their videos.
34
You weren't there when the videos were in a 4x3 aspect ratio because that's what TVs look like.
35
You weren't there when a background for a website would be a never -ending grid of a JPEG
36
and music would play against your will and your cursor would turn into a sparkly wand and...
37
Okay, that's actually pretty cool.
38
Whatever happened to that?
39
And then the person who built the website would go, Hmm, it's looking pretty good.
40
But you know what this webpage really needs?
41
A counter that'll tell you the total number of people who visited.
42
Let me just copy this HTML code I found online and
43
if you're around my age and you also had unsupervised computer time,
44
then great, you were also there to experience the pre -puberty years of the internet.
45
Try to imagine the internet without social media.
46
No Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or MySpace.
47
Were people back then just not talking about themselves or sharing their opinions online?
48
Were we as a society more connected with the people we knew in the real world?
49
No, of course not.
50
People have been sharing their opinions online since day one.
51
They were just doing it on random message boards.
52
I know it sounds trivial nowadays, but there was once a novelty in being able to type anything you wanted into the computer,
53
and then someone else you didn't know would instantaneously respond.
54
Even Neopets, a game targeted to children, had chat rooms and let anyone send unfiltered messages to children.
55
I'm surprised I didn't meet any weirdos.
56
That's one thing that'll never change with the internet.
57
There will always be weirdos online.
58
In fact most of a weirdo's life is spent behind a computer.
59
I would know.
60
I think people love sending messages so much that sometimes your friend would send you a message that said
61
You've just been hit by the duck truck!
62
Send this message to eight of your friends and you'll be as sexy as a truck!
63
Ignore and you'll be hit by a 16 -wheeler.
64
You have seven days.
65
And instead of blocking that person, some people would keep the chain going.
66
Hey, I have a quick question.
67
When was the last time you ever had to type a specific website into your address bar?
68
Hmm, probably somewhere about 10 years, give or take.
69
You just type in a Y, and then YouTube pops up.
70
You put in a T, you get Twitter, and P gets you picturesofalligators .com.
71
And if you had a specific question you wanted to ask the internet, you just yahoo it, right?
72
Yahoo?
73
Oh, no, that's not the one you kids are using, you kids are using that new search engine, right?
74
Ask Jeeves?
75
I know there's like four main websites that everyone goes on, but back then, instead of having a social media account, people made their own websites.
76
So there were a bunch of different websites for you to explore, and to help you find those websites,
77
you had a few search engines to pick from.
78
Everyone loves to dunk on Bing for even attempting to be a search engine, but back in the day, Google had some competition.
79
Obviously, I can see why Google ultimately won the search engine battle.
80
Google is a great company and I would recommend Google to all my peers and coworkers.
81
I love Google!
82
As much as I love the internet, some of the best memories we had on the computer weren't even on the internet, were they?
83
Sometimes the internet would just go down.
84
But did that stop us?
85
Did we go outside?
86
No. We were still able to supply ourselves with hours of entertainment even without an internet.
87
All you had to do was click
88
Start, All Programs, Accessories, Games, and then...
89
Space Cadet Pinball.
90
I guarantee every millennial watching this right now just got hit with a big wave of nostalgia.
91
This game might seem simple because there's only two buttons that you can press, but when you really got into it,
92
this game had a whole lot more going on.
93
Trust me, Space Cadet Pinball was all we had sometimes, and I cherished every second of it.
94
But if you were anything like me growing up, you were also practicing your art skills.
95
And luckily, every computer came pre -installed with a top -of -the -line painting software that every artist needs.
96
Yeah, this program's got everything.
97
There's a line tool, and a bucket tool, and a circle tool.
98
And sometimes when I was really bored, I would make a black rectangle, scribble the free -form selection tool on it, and then blammo!
99
Yeah, I still got it.
100
I just made a masterpiece.
101
And, fun James bonus tip, for some extra self -induced epilepsy, hold down Ctrl -I, which will invert the colors,
102
so your masterpiece will go...
103
Oh my god!
104
Oh, it hurts to look at!
105
Hey, looks like you're trying to create a conclusion to this YouTube video.
106
Would you like my help?
107
No, Clippy.
108
Even when you were around, I never used you.
109
I just liked having you there to keep me company.
110
The internet is still a relatively new invention that is ever -changing the way we live.
111
And we have yet to see the full effects of what being connected since birth does to a person.
112
The fact that the accumulation of all human knowledge can now fit in your pocket?
113
That's going to affect your day -to -day life!
114
Now, I'm not going to sit here and tell you to get off the internet, touch grass, and live your life to the fullest.
115
Otherwise, I'd be a hypocrite. And unemployed.
116
There's no denying all the positive things that the internet has to offer.
117
But I'm also not going to deny all the negative things that come with instant gratification, too.
118
As technology advances, so too do we advance the amount of time we spend online.
119
The internet can connect us to a million different people and perspectives that we never would have been exposed to before.
120
But it can also expose us to some really nasty people and perspectives.
121
And the only thing we can do about those people is shrug and say, Sorry, that's the internet.
122
So, are we, as a society, better off with the internet?
123
I think so.
124
But just, I don't know, just remember to drink water and stretch.
125
Alright, that's the lesson of this video.
126
Go stretch.
127
I'm serious.
128
Right now, go touch your toes.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
