Is there any based technology from the 70s, 80s, 90s, that (((they've))) forgotten about that you still use?

Toaster used to last forever and so did refrigerators.

>>509800628 (OP)
my mom has an oven from the 60s and i dont think it has ever broken or anything like that

Personally I think it's in bad taste to post the exact same thread a second time, especially if it's off topic
But I'm just a dumb oldfag

Shit man, I used to have either that exact clock, or a Sharp that looked exactly like it. Probably 1987 or so. I thought the digital readout was so cool.
Everything has changed.
I still have, and use, a VoxClock 2, released in maybe 1985 or so. It has reliably told me of every hour change for 25+ years. And I only need to change batteries once every 5-6 years.
It was the ONLY gift my father can recall receiving from my grandfather. It has a little melody it plays for it's alarm that I've come to think of as a little family tune, connecting 4 generations. My son now hears it daily, too.

>>509800628 (OP)
I still have my coat from high school and I'm 44 now.

This bad boy has never let me down.

Nevermind, it was this one. I inherited it from my parents and got it in my room until 1990 or so. In 1990, they released one with green digits, and I thought that looked cooler somehow.

I got my dad's watch repaired a couple of years ago.

>>509801359
What is it?

>>509800812
those same ones still do if you have one. its only new stuff that is built to break. or people have to buy a new version of something, not because there's anything wrong with what they have, its just old

>>509800812
I have a fridge/freezer my grandpa bought in the 60s. It's still running and in my basement. I'm scared to turn it off because I don't know if it can handle a thaw/freeze cycle but the fucker uses basically no electricity so I just let it go.

Oven probably has asbestos, and I'm guessing she still uses old pot holders with asbestos.

Old tube TVs and VCRs with VHS tapes of just about every movie and TV show worth watching. Along with 90s game consoles and games ( as well as an extensive DVD collection and a DVD, player, which isn't exactly 90s tech, but close enough) Basically enough 90s tech and older media to selectively curate what media I consume so I never have to consume media goyslop ever again. If i chose never to leave the house again, I could pretend every day is the first day of 1999 on a loop like in the Matrix.

Set an alarm on it, it's my little tune. I whistle it all the time. I've never met another VoxClock 2 owner.
I believe they were pretty cheap at Radio Shack back around '85, which explains how my Grandfather wound up buying it.

But I live there anon.

The oldest thing I have and still use are the 90s dinner plates I grew up using.
We kept them in a box after replacing them. One of the few sets / items that didn't get thrown out despite being in very good condition.
Next oldest thing is one of my guitars, a bass guitar, maybe another guitar but I need to check the serial number.
I suppose the amp from 2008 counts but it's a bit fresh.
There's a photo camera with film somewhere, Minolta. 1980s I'm pretty sure.
I've got a camera bag from the period.
Oh yeah a scheduler from the early 90s. It's a little PDA-type thing without storage, it was a very low power electronic calendar and small note device. Runs on a CR2032. Will not play Doom.

Sometimes I like to turn off every fucking screen, and just listen to the radio

Same bro. I have a VCR and DVD player hooked up to my main TV along with my NES. Several series and movies on DVD and of course some VHS. A ton of CDs in the basement. Between all of that and PlutoTV, I am set. I basically have been living in 1995-2002 for years.
Its better this way.

>>509805208
I barely watch anything made after 2005. I try to stick with 1970-1998 or so. It's so comfy pretending things haven't gotten so horrible.

>>509804776
Sometimes I just watch the Bob Barker Era The Price Is Right channel on Pluto for hours. When cars were $6K and 90% of the contestants were normal BMI. I just watch and I wonder, how could things go so wrong so fast? But its comforting to watch.

Yeah I've been meaning to get Pluto TV, sounds pretty rad. Already have Tubi because that filled the gaps for a lot of old movies and TV shows I could not find physical media for. What's really nice is that i have all my gear tested on both solar and car battery arrays, so I could be pretty comfy in my bunker eating tendies and deciding whether I want to do another full playthrough of Xenogears or binge watch every Hanna Barberra cartoon from when Cartoon Network was still based years into the happening apocalypse long after the dino juice runs out.

All of my small appliances are vintage (70s/80s), but my favorite one is this 1983 made-in-USA microwave. The only time i really use it is for Thanksgiving leftovers or warming up takeout (which I rarely buy), but it's nice to have simply because it's an absolute beast.

We had a touchmatic at the cabin for 40 years, never broke as far as I know. Stainless steel case though,

Can say I've got anything retro in terms of appliances (beyond vidya and CRTs) but I bought a 97 Tacoma with 300k miles last year and ive put 20k miles on it since with only a $600 repair for a shifter cable as expenses beyond oil. Fucking absurd how shit used to just work

>>509803033
That top-load console is superior to the big boxy version most people had. But the controller fucking sucked. The A, B buttons angled like that is retarded. Original rectangle controller is way better.

From mainstream news media, sure. But arts and entertainment has just gotten steadily worse and more kiked as the years have gone on, while just about everything good has been memoryholed and left off of the streaming services. The only way to have non ZOG approved media anymore is to own it yourself as a piece of physical media. Which is why streaming services and kther non physical media was pushed on is so aggressively

>>509806788
The stainless ones are nice, but I've always been partial to the fake wood grain.

Book burning, especially jewish and arabian books, old school tech called fire. Not many knows how to use it but that is one way. Leave our countries is a saying also very old tech, it is called language.

Up until a year ago, I had been sleeping on the same mattress since I graduated from a crib. It had springs that were brittle and would snap and the broken ends would stab me, so it finally had to go. In '91, those springs took a lot of punishment when I would pound my girlfriend. She lost her virginity on 80s Transformers sheets and kept coming back for more.

The house I grew up in had a clock that looked like that, but it had extra buttons that could turn lights on and off all over the house. It was probably from the late '80s or early '90s since we moved into the house in 1994 and it was already there. Never saw any thing else like that for decades until wifi home automation stuff started becoming common.

It's simply false though. Arts and Entertainment should never be expected to be of higher quality than that which you yourself can produce. Nobody owes you good music. However, neither do you owe a musician any money for their recording.

The global internet infrastructure creates such a large volume of information and art that it is no longer "rationed" by what is "available" in your hometown, however things of high artistic quality as well as good, trustworthy information are more available than ever, simply lost often in a sea of garbage.

>>509808751
In some ways many industrial facilities and power plants are just larger versions of small ones.

Refineries are giant chemistry sets.

That stuff is chock full of jewish propaganda, Hollywood has been naught but kike subversion since the 60s, it started with ww2 really but there was still good stuff into the 40s.

With few exceptions most media I consume is 50s, and the exception is mostly jap films which are mostly non-kiked
