Fax machines will never die no matter how they are mocked. It simply is the easiest way to send documents with private information and it's fast. At least we have e-faxing now to receive documents.
Please don't tell me you buy that "they can't be hacked". It's pretty much on the same tier as email.
Not so much they can't be hacked, but that nobody seems to bother to.
Well, I don't really love that as a security philosophy. If it's somehow not going on now it will be soon.
I've never heard of it happening in my 20 years of faxing if that helps at all.
Radio. I still listen to radio over the airwaves, and received by an antenna, as it has been done since 1920.
Bicycles are not much different since around 1900.
Pager and satellite phone. Mostly a niche usecase for health workers and remote location settlement respectively.
Pagers.
Still in use by hospitals and emergency services
Shit works
General Aviation is still using magnetos. The typical GA airplane is hilariously primitive.
Yeah, it's so hilarious to want an engine that will continue to run after a complete electrical system failure at 10000ft.
Fuck 100LL though.
The Rotax engines use digital CDI ignition that is independent if the airframe electrical system, and from each other. I've never seen one fail.
NOOO I NEED LEADED FUEL CAUSE MY LYCOMING IS FROM THE 60s 😭😭
If you buy a brand new Skyhawk here in the space year 2025, it will come with a newly made Lycoming IO-360 that requires 100LL. I think they're still working on eliminating leaded avgas, I think because the Trump regime hasn't noticed it yet.
Trigonometry is still used to take measures all around the world.
Well, if that counts, addition also remains very popular.
Welcome to "That's not surprising at all!"
