I tend to not really care for most new things, as most of it feels cheap, inauthentic or a scam to further the surviellance facist oligarchy state. Id be completely content with time frozen in 2004.

So, to be a little more positive, what are some new things that are actually good?

Note, to me, new is within the last 10 years.

I’ll start. The fediverse concept is neat.

      My oven won’t fit on the counter top, or in my RV.
      I can’t plug my oven into any standard household outlet.
      My oven’s energy costs are considerably more than these apparently decades-old air fryers (that nobody knew about).

      Other than that, you’re 100% correct, tho’!

        We’ve had a countertop convection oven since the mid-2000s, one of them was a black and decker, first one was a delonghi, current one is cuisinart.

        We also had a modern ‘air fryer’ gifted to us, which is loud and more aggressive with the fan, but only a little faster… it has some extra accessories. Thinking of getting rid of it as redundant, and the ‘toaster oven’ is more flexible.
