It can be a movie, a scientific discovery, food, whatever
Bluetooth earbuds. Took me the longest time to buy a pair. Now I have them all the time.
Sammmme. I was so against having to charge headphones to listen to them. No idea they would last as long as they did on one charge and my god do they perform well.
- The Lord of the Rings trilogy
- The Harry Potter books and films
Tv, The internet, the smallpox vaccine
The Nintendo Switch when it came out. I was super hyped and somehow the console even exceeded my expectations.
Playing Breath of the Wild for the first time was amazing and even after 6 years the console still feels modern to me.
Yep, every time someone mentions how long it’s been out, it surprises me again. It still ‘Nintendo’s brand new console’ to me.
I feel you. The PS3 is still “last generation” to me and a Core 2 Duo still feels like a powerful new processor.
The polio vaccine.
Red Dead Redemption 2 what a game. As a dev myself it’s just awesome that there are still people respecting every inch of a video game. The animations, the story, the side activities, the acting, the underlying systems that are nearly prepared for everything. It’s just insane. I lived like a hermit in the woods when it came out.
The Steam Deck. Awesome, awesome device.
Lasers. They seem to have endless uses from playing with cats, scientific measurements, military, construction, heating, cooling, even used for space-based internet communications. There’s so many more uses that I’m not using.
Maybe a hot take, but Cyberpunk 2077. I didn’t experience most of the bugs people complained about and I loved almost everything about the game and world. It’s also only gotten better as they’ve patched it.
E-bikes.
Milk.
Smartphones.
