"CD player and DVD player. If the internet/wifi/cellular goes down, you can’t watch your streaming services. However, actual DVDs will work. Pop one in and press play! No internet required for those!"
"Books. Yes I use digital ones, mainly for travels, but there is something about paper books that is awsome."
"Desktop PC. Some things I don't want to do on a small screen."
"My physical media:Records, CDs, Games."
"A real, wall hung calendar. Keeps our family life organisation all in one place for all ages to see. Plus you're forced to &go home and check the calendar' when making appointments/getting invited places, which just gives a bit of much needed time to stop, think and assess how best to keep the balance of time commitments."
"My computer mouse. I have a laptop. The touch pad for the cursor is awkward for me to use. My mouse is more comfortable. I am good with touch screens, though."
"Paper planners and notebooks. I love physically writing things down and it helps me remember things better."
"Wired headphones.
Better for environment. No battery to go dead. Can last decades.
Sound better. No reliance on bluetooth bandwidth."
"My walkman!"
"Old school pencil sharpener. Nothing beats a freshly sharpened #2 pencil."
"Map and compass when hiking. GPS is great, but relying on it is asking for trouble and you don't learn the ground in the same way."
"Watch.
Not decorative, just a cheap Casio Illuminator."
"I still have my grandmother's waffle iron. The taste and shape of the waffles on it are incredible, no new waffle iron can make them. Quality and experience prevail."
"My iPod Classic. Still works like a charm and has my entire music library from high school. Pure nostalgia in my pocket."
"My treadle sewing machine. It's like 100 years old and will probably outlast me and my siblings' kids.
When the power is out I can still sew."
"My turntable, showing my age but still got lots of vinyl."
"Old cables. They come in handy so frequently!"
"Flip phones, arguments hit harder when you can slam it shut."
"My safety razor from 1963.
Close shave, no razor burn and blades cost pennies."
