ITT: we bitch about things technology is bringing into our lives like the grumpy old men we are at heart
I hate electric stoves. It's kinda cool that you can use them as a benchtop when you're not cooking, but they take forever to heat up and you can't pick the pan up and tilt it like you can over a gas flame. Plus the immediate whoosh and heat you get when you light a gas stove with a lighter is just so satisfying.
I kind of feel the same about electric cars (despite never being anywhere near one) - I like the way my car rumbles and the feeling of changing gears. Feels strange knowing that in a few generations everyone will grow up driving electric.
I hate fucking airplanes. I used to love the times we spent 4 months to travel from one country to another on horses with making 5000 stops on the way. Now you hop on to an airplane and get there in a few hours its just ridiculous.

>they take forever to heat up
I think you should change your stove
I agree with the electric car thing, not because of the feeling, but because they're getting so much hype when they hardly improve the existing situation. It feels like a lateral move, at best. Not to mention batteries aren't the most reliable technology out there.
I like gas because you can char with it

halogen here
no complaints - fast as fuck, easy to clean, no fucking around
i hate the internet
Robots. They are fucking everywhere, from personal space to space.
I hate smartphones with their superficial snapchat and gametheoretical hell tinder and whatsapp which makes you decide between 1984 and cocoon mode
Laptops, they are all so techy and they all want touch screens like it is a tablet, terrible.

I love electric hotplates! Bunsen burners are too dangerous for orgo labs.

You're joking but I kinda agree, although I wouldn't give up having airplanes

This seems much more fun
