I think the best example is the PlayStation 2 being discontinued in 2013, as well the PlayStation 1 in 2006

    Leaded fuel. Avgas is 100-octane leaded gasoline that is still being used by most small aircraft piston engines. Lead-free alternatives exist, but production and supply infrastructure is nonexistent.

      That isn’t as crazy as it may seem. My main audio source well after graduation which was 2005, was a portable cd player that could play cd’s burned with compressed mp3 libraries and connected to the car’s stereo system via aux to cassette adapter.

      Idk about the portable cd player with mp3 library being common but most blunt cruises in those days were done in vehicles using portable cd player with cassette adapter. I know this is super anecdotal and specifically about the car owner class that isn’t buying new Lexus’ but I still wanted to point out the cassette deck saw extended use long after people stopped listening to actual cassettes.

          Omg fuckin yes. It was so awesome. It was during a brief period when mp3 hit the stage but before ipod was God, there were mp3 players that would just pop up like a memory stick in windows and you could limewire whatever you wanted for music onto the players.

          IDK if the software was Sony but the player was and you could put your whole limewire library in a small single CD per page zip up binder things. The mp3 saved on the cd was nothing special. The special was no audio players could play mp3 files at that time. Exceptions being: gaming consoles, pc’s and maybe your surround sound if it was new. Cars were still nobs and buttons.

      This doesn’t qualify. Slavery is still in use in the world. You’d have to use a modifier like American slavery or the enslavement of x, y, z, people.
