37, got 19. Never had a mix tape.

[–] Doublenut@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

Same. Plenty of "mix tape" CDs but no tapes. Unless you count the one I stole from my aunt. Also not sure if I can count a word processing machine as a type writer. I've used a real typewriter but just for fun.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Whattt? I feel like I should make you a mix tape

20/20 and I’ll add Atari, illegal cable hookup, and limewire.

[–] AlphaOmega@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Add Napster, ICQ, and AOL chatrooms ... A/S/L?

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'll add Saturday morning cartoons, planning your week around when shows came on TV, and renting movies from a grocery store/pharmacy.

[–] PrincessTardigrade@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ooohhh I totally forgot about renting movies from the grocery store!

Maybe we can add palm pilots and tvs where the channel changer was a knob you had to adjust

[–] AlphaOmega@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

That reminds me of the first VCR my family owned. Wired remotes anyone?

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Records have been resurgent for a decade. The person who made this thinks they're funny and biting, but they are out of touch with the culture.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

And definitely not a "record player". Turntable, mother fucker.

19/20. Only because I refused to use AOL.

Half of these are still in use simply because some people think they're cool, or when someone prefers to not have to rely on technology (e.g. paper maps don't run out of electricity while you're on a long hike).

[–] tym@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I don't see cocaine on this list. That takes some years off as well.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Not 4, ... 20? Bitch please.

AOL is very American, could've written dialup. Check books were also gone here long before they were in the US.

Mixed Tape

Does this mean a mix tape or is that something else? 🤨

Also: I've used a rotary phone, but only because I had bought a novelty modern phone that used a rotary dialer in the 90s.

I got 19 or 20, depending on the answer to my question about the "mixed tape" thing.

Does it count if I own a typewriter, even though I've never used it?

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 days ago (3 children)

19 out of 20. Unless just testing a waterbed counts....

Terrible distribution of options. A good list would have a series of technologies and tools that became obsolete at different times. Almost all of these became obsolete with the rise of broadband internet in the early 2000's, while a handful were earlier (rotary phones) or later (paper maps, paper checks).

Yeah, in don't think many of us touched a Phone Bo. They're impossible to find after we started making bo staffs out of better material like wood.
