Some of my coworkers were talking about using RSS to read blogs, which made some of the younger folks in our team ask what it is and why we keep using it.
Some still use iPods to avoid subscriptions and streaming services, my favorite was one of our sysadmins who showed me Gopher.
I’m curious about others though, thanks!
You need to specify whether you’re taking about digital or analog technology, or some other limit on the question, because i think you’re not looking for answers like “fire” or as another user replied “shoes”.
My clock radio alarm is from the late 80’s, I guess. It was my Dad’s before and it still works fine.
I ude Emacs as my peferred text editor.
Holy crap. Gopher is old AF.
Fire.
Fire and rocks, the OG of technology.
Fire isn’t technology any more than water and electricity are. The tools to create or utilize it are the technology part. But since I don’t use a firebowv or flint striker routinely, it’s the wheel for me, baby.

The Honda Fit is one of my favorite cars I’ve ever owned. So damn practical and affordable.
I often use the position of the sun to figure out what direction I’m going.
Yeah that’s pretty damn old tech man
Technique yes, technology I would question.
Fire is pretty great and I use it all the time.
Are you using bow drill or flint and steel?
Both. Why limit yourself?
The wheel.
Are you not using knifes?
I still use clippers bought in 2015
CRT TV
My penis is pretty old at this point…
Less than half a century, you youngling
I’m only as old as I feel and me and my wrinkled-ass dick feel pretty old
Probably the FM radio.
Or the fridge or the light bulb.
winrar, i think
Do people really use this? Why?
winrar? just works.
it’s never failed, so I’ve never used an alternative.
The biggest question is did you pay for a license?
i only paid once, and not until a decade after i started using it, but i did at dinner point paid the whatever it was, although now i just use the free version again and the purchased version (which is identical) is long lost.
I use it because it usually costs money but somehow it’s been working free for me for decades!
There’s still 7zip or Peazip that does the same thing, but they are properly free (open source). Check them out.
Sorry I should have but an /s was totally kidding
Well, I know people that still uses winrar (and total commander) trial for decades. So it might be /s for you, but not for others. Sadly.
I occasionally harness fire. Does that count?
Only if you use a flint and tinder. Alternatively, finding and keeping a lightning started fire alive is acceptable.
