Tired of my tvs no longer updating to the latest software, tired of my phone no longer connecting to my car, tired of my few years old tech being considered legacy and no longer supported. Can anyone suggest non-android, non-apple, non-AI, non-connected, non-smart ‘dumb’ tech you’ve bought that makes a difference in your life? Should be hardy enough to last maybe 20 years (my even older plasma tv is still going on strong with a beautiful tv and forward firing speakers, while my newer Samsung lcd stopped receiving updates) and just do it’s job. I can live without mu ai enabled washer telling me how to wash my clothes.
I wish people would just give away good stuff like that where I live
The suburbs of cities are where I always go. nobody in the city likes to drive for 30 minutes to a neighborhood theyre unfamiliar with, and everyone coming from outside is just trying to get into the city, so there’s always good stuff around the rim.
I will say I got lucky one time jogging and I turned back on the final block before my house and there was a pretty big flat screen just sitting on the sidewalk with a sign taped to it that said free.
so i picked that up and hauled it the last block.
lucked out on that one.
