Every year there are some new “great, revolutionary” things and trends, but unfortunately not all of them work and quickly fade into oblivion.
I liked the trend where everyone wanted to have the smallest mobile phone possible. Over the past 20 years, cell phones have become smaller and smaller. This was often the main advantage of the phone. Then suddenly you could watch movies on your phone, and almost overnight the trend changed to “bigger is better.” People thought we would see more pregnancies during the lockdown because couples would have nothing else to do. Instead, we’ve seen people isolate themselves more even after lockdowns ended, and fewer people are now dating, let alone having children. As inflation began to rise, it was also seen that more people were choosing to delay having children due to the increased costs.
These “fat-free” chips that caused violent diarrhea because of the Olestra used in them. Over time, it turns out that we just need a good enough refrigerator, not a refrigerator with the option of connecting to the Internet.
When Windows Phone was announced, Microsoft organized a real funeral procession for the iPhone.
I’m still very distraught that we never got the modular phone revolution that I was promised in the early 2010s. Now having a replaceable battery is crazy exciting. Delivering parcels using a drone.
Kinect for Xbox 360 was supposed to change the gaming industry. There were maybe a dozen games made for it, most of which barely worked. And it quietly disappeared after about two or three years.
Curved TVs.
Minidisc. The future when you were young.
What is it with this Tesla cybertruck, information about it was published years ago, but it is not available yet or is it available? How is it possible that NO ONE has written about the Firephone? Entire teams of people were fired after this failure. One of the funniest ones I remember was the solar roads. Solar panels that you drive on. Somehow without damaging them.
