I'm looking for documented historical facts like old consumer products, workplace conditions, infrastructure, or daily habits that people thought were great or normal at the time, but were actually completely miserable or dangerous by today's standards.

I’m talking about things like long-distance running, intense video game troubleshooting, complex crafting, or PC building. Why does doing something so mentally or physically taxing quiet the mind better than just sitting on the couch?
