I’m not stuck in time. I’ve embraced dependability.

    Dude, that GE clock is the best, that watch is also solid af. Plus look at all those nice old receivers, I bet they sound great.

    Also what’s the hate on the tire gauge? Does another kind exist other than a slide stick? Does another fancier kind even need to exist?

      Stick pressure gauges are bad.

      Bourdon pressure gauges are the only pressure gauge to get. (Not bourdon brand but one that uses what is known as a bourdon tube).

      They are analogue AND reliable over the long term.

      They exist with a round dial as well. Personally I don’t measure my tire pressure, ever. My car will tell me if one is low, and I’d go to a gas station to fill them to spec. Although lately I got a little compressor which goes in the cigarette lighter, which just lets you enter the desired pressure. I use that for the car, bikes, footballs and whatever else needs to be pumped to a given pressure.
