Appliances- dishwashers, washer/dryers, fridges, etc. The more digital stuff they put in those things, most likely they will break down or parts will need to be replaced.



Yep. And nobody knows how to work on them!

You have these men who have been working on car engines or appliance parts/motors for decades, and now they have to figure out the "smart" electronic component? Half of them are like , and I don't blame them.

Premium Saltine Crackers

Moved production to Mexico and they have never been even close to as good as they used to be.

i can understand the cars comment as i have a 1987 bmw that a 10 year old kid could work on.

but all the safety features on new cars and the fact you can still buy a 20yo toyota that will run another 5 years >> than a 1980s Dodge K car that couldn't make it 7 years before it was time to crush it.

I paid for the premium subscription since I use it for music streaming as well

You'll still get sponsored content but it's better than actual ads

Probably one of the only subscriptions I see myself keeping

Pop-tarts.

When they moved away from those thick, heavy insulate waxed bags with a little tab/string you pulled to open them to that microns-thick foil they ruined them.

they haven't been good since the 1980s.

Little Debbie honey buns. They are garbage now.

Chips Ahoy cookies. They have shrunk in size and taste different than I remember from the 80's and 90's.

That's actually one of the worst things about these smart devices. They introduce unnecessary security threats with minimal added benefit.
