2 Things.

Completed products. Before the rise of online gaming all games had to be completed before they could be pushed out and you couldn’t really do upgrades (although there were add ons). I gave up gaming when I had a PS4, every time I wanted to do anything it it needed time to do uploads. Just got sick of it.

Owning things. I hate subscription models. They are great for a physical thing you get every month but for lots of digital products they are rubbish. Give me the software and stop messing around with it. I’ve stopped caring so much about paying them now. If it can’t be owned, it can’t be piracy.

Online menus,it doesn’t hurt to just tell me what you have on a list at the very least.

Keyless ignition serves no useful purpose and is much less secure than a physical car key. You can’t clone a key through a brick wall.

One of those Jurassic Park moments of people trying to show what they could do without thinking whether they should.

Handwriting .. Many people having handwriting that were almost like art back then (especially the elders). On the occasions one see handwriting nowadays.. it’s just like wtf is written here. Nice/Perfect handwriting still impresses me no matter how “ancient” many think handwriting is nowadays. A kind of “everyday art”. Can still look at some letters sent by grandparents and think of both the skills and time they used to make it. Using their minds and souls before the words were put on the paper. Words are so cheap and simple in the era of the keyboard and computers.
