IMO stuff that's offline. Not everything needs to connect to an app or a remote server. I mean both physical gadgets but also a lot of apps that could just work offline.
this 100%...we've digitized too too much...QR menus at restaurants are the fkng worst
yes, or I prefer no menu at all, open kitchen - seeing as ordering
restaurants are in-person experiences...don't make me stare at a screen again while im there! Do that enough already...
Exactly, I like going to restaurants where elderly locals go, everything is still the old-times way - menus most likely hanging on the walls or no menu at all, handwritten orders, small conversations in between, and the chefs being proud of their food! hahaha

Electronic menus mean they can increase prices daily without needing to reprint.
That's the answer. Sticky prices aren't a big problem in a stable monetary regime. However, in a highly inflationary period, it's important to be able to adjust prices frequently without constantly printing new menus.
Open source is great for that, I've swapped all my apps for OS ones that work offline only, on GrapheneOS. It's great.

Remember how people bought a new CD every month or every few months? How bout a new roll of film for every set of 32 photos? Life was objectively worse back then - but it wasn't necessarily less happy

Pen and paper in the classroom. Education after COVID has become so digitized, but it is really bad for low willpower kids who end up just goofing off on their devices
Honestly, even high willpower kids have a hard time with it. I know so many kids for whom the covid lockdown insanity was a complete disaster, in so many ways - emotional, social, physical.
big facts
unfortunately the next generation's probably gonna be in some metaverse school nonsense
cautiously optimistic this trend will somehow flip into a positive thing
Some people doodled their way through school, before tablets. At the end of the day public school is the same, but the tech might be a bit more advanced. But end of the day its a public school and destroys souls
Freedom

Careful what you wish for... Towards the end of the Reign of Terror some of the original revolutionaries became victim of their own machine.

Microsoft Excel 2010
Everything after that, is just brutal unnecessary re-writes and designed-for-SaaS-features.
Fuck Microsoft
Typescript is nice. Github is nice. Kubernetes is nice.
Microsoft is one of the biggest supporters of open source software in the world. But it has only been this way since around 2017, when Bill Gates and Ballmer screwed off.
Yah, pretty much. But, day-jobs are going to day-job. And employers tend to like maintaining supportable software.
I enjoy excel too🫡
Agreed! Excel, truly functional dataflow programming, is a paradigm that is lost to many today.
The Bat Utility Belt. Complete with Bat Shark Repellent Spray.

Oldtimers like the Triumph 4
Walkman by Sony. Old school type music on the go.
Well, the electric chair. There is no point in having capital punishment if you are just going to use an injection that makes it like going to sleep. It defeats the whole purpose.
websites that dont require downloading 200mb of shit to show you two paragraphs of text
Only if it comes with the game Blast Corp…
Personally I’d like 8-track tapes to make a come back.

wow how many memories to imagine that those consoles were the hardware powerhouses at that time, imagine if they brought out a vintage style console, like a DS or a Family that their games every online player would earn bitcoin with every game won, it would be an industrial revolution. in this modern age to come across those computers is to live again. thanks for remembering those greats of video games. sats to all.
Dreamcast was ahead of its time with online gaming
Bitcoinise the N64, hmmm, how could I do that?
I really enjoyed CD's. Unfortunately most that I owned got damaged. So, I like the size and overall sound quality, but the disc material sucks.
Physical media in general.

There are actually people who have built on-chain video game functionality with an emulator of sorts using reverse transcriptions of some kind, with ordinals. I was talking to the guy in a Twitter spaces, I'll post his info in here when I get back.
Installing new software by methods other than curl $URL | sudo sh
I recently installed Batocera Linux on an old mini PC. It's basically a retro gaming distro that comes pre-installed with dozens of emulators. I didn't want my kids to grow up without experiencing Goldeneye on N64.
Cars that do not feel like you are flying an aircraft with all the screens and buttons. Just keep it simple.
Bearer shares.
