Cassette tapes.
My Clip Shit broke (Fucking flash memory died out of nowhere) and my phone can't even drive simple IEMs to a reasonable volume.
Chrome tapes actually sound pretty decent with some EQ.
Pic is my player. Using a Hitachi D-85s to record the tapes.

Everything else on your list you could at least argue that it is outdated. There is no way you could make the argument that everything AMD is outdated. That's just dumb.

I thought about getting a blu-ray drive for my desktop. Since PublicHD went under, it's hard to find decent rips of anything these days.

Is it worth it? It's only like $50.

those lightbulbs are outlawed in most western nations. cfls should be banned too with all the mercury they contain. all the landfills must be toxic to all life because no body ever follows the correct procedure to throw away light bulbs or batteries...ever.

yes, it's a shame.

fuck the government. they let people buy cars with 500 hp that literally burn the fuel for nothing and then put up laws that fuck everyones day/night rythm anally. I really like some ideas of terrorists and their hatred against certain constitutions.
