I'm really nostalgic about older technology.

Let's talk phones, for example.
They were really high quality engineering masterpieces.
>High build quality, metal parts
>made not in China (in case of Nokia that was Finland)
>week battery life out of 900 mAh
>physical keys, so you don't swipe screen like idiot
>repairability. Nokia did supply schematics, with all test point signals and such.
>Unique

What happened? Why modern devices are so inferior and, well, boring?

Modern devices are made to be disposable like their owners. The collapse of the Soviet Union unleashed 3 billion cheap workers. That's when this all started.

I've been back on Nokia for a few month. A really old one. It holds up well, and my mind is at peace.
No tracking, no notifications, no permanent internet.
Heaven.

Can't anymore now that they're banning 3g and forcing everyone to 5g. Which means more dead zones in rural zones because 5g doesn't travel as far and they won't bother to expand the network.
