In the 1900s I worked at a physical media store. Someone complained about the Titanic playing overhead having boobies visible in it, and I was tasked with using a VHS splicer to remove the boobies.

You are getting old, when you start specifying a whole century when talking about past experiences XD

[–] SouthFresh@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

They were trying to sell Titanic

In the 1900s I was on the Titanic, and I remember that someone complained "at least there ought to be some boobies".

A TV on a ceiling mount

[–] SouthFresh@lemmy.world 14 points 4 days ago

There were multiple TVs throughout the store hanging from the ceiling.

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

Just a public tv playing on the wall
