Doorknob caps can and do short. I'm working on my second RCA 21CT55 resto and can tell you that both sets had shorted doorknobs (the first shorted a month after I put it into regular service and the most recent set it blew in half decades ago and got glued back together with corona dope by someone back then). They're much more reliable in monochrome sets, but I've seen those doorknobs short too. For the 6KV paper caps go on Mouser or Digikey and look for the red plastic shell WIMA brand 6KV .0047 and .001uF film caps....They're probably the lowest priced film caps out there and they give good linearity and work as well as the originals...The only downside is the leads aren't long enough and need extensions soldered on. I've had 2 of these 2-chassis tele-tones one was good but the other had the chassis rewired with furnace wiring, band-aids used for electrical tape and a menagerie of 60's replacement caps that look like they got robbed out of scrapped equipment....You'd have loved it!

2:28 Redmi is basically just Xiaomi, a brand that has been available and popular in Central and Eastern European states for several years now. In the rest of europe, also available, but not as popular. Xiaomi in Poland is about on par with Samsung, marketshare wise. Xiaomi used to be cheap, affordable, good value phones. Nowadays, not really that good value but still fairly decent quality. BBK Electronics (OnePlus, Realme, VIVO etc.) is taking their place as the value phone manufacturer. Good thing for chinese phones is that replacement parts are very cheap, say a display assembly for budget phones is maybe 15-25USD and fairly easy to replace. I don't have to worry about my phone getting trashed because any damage is fixable on a budget.

REDMI: The "twisting jerk" motion you're getting when starting recording points to a broken physical optical image stabilization mechanism; this is common in phones that have suffered a severe drop and/or have been left mounted to a vibrating vehicle for too long, either probably relate to how the phone ended up in your yard. Since it's a very cheap and common device you could probably DIY replace the affected camera unit for ~$20. The momentary pauses during recording may be a memory write or background app/spyware issue. You may be able to force the camera to drop to a slower framerate by shooting through the lens of a pair of sunglasses.

I don't think 1950 was the peak for America. A lot of the issues we have today, they were already germinating back in 1950. They just weren't visible yet, because we were still dealing with the utter shock of what humanity was capable of during WWII. 1950 was a high point, economically for America, because of WWII, and the postwar rebuilding, but even by then, some cracks were starting to show, and things were already beginning to cheapen. I have a substantial collection of Looney Tunes cartoons, from their early beginnings in the '30's, up to the mid '60's when the quality was awful. By 1950, the quality was already beginning to fall. It was still great, and many of the classic Looney Tunes came from the 1950's, but their visual peak was, I would say from 1940 to 1948. Look at Gossimer, the red hair monster, in his 1946 debut, and look at his cheaper design by 1948. It's not much cheaper, but still not as good. Plastic was becoming a thing by 1950. Commercial microwave ovens existed by 1950. McDonalds existed by 1950. The 1950's set the stage for the 1960's. The 60's began defining itself even before we got involved in Vietnam.
