TIL my old hand-cranked blower from a garage sale is way better than the new electric one I bought.
After burning through two $150 electric blowers in a year, I went back to the 50-year-old hand crank and realized the steady, quiet air control is perfect for forge welding, so what's your take on modern tools versus old-school reliability?

Modern stuff breaks so fast now.

My 2015 MacBook Pro is still running strong, Wendy Carr. We expect way more from our gadgets now, like 4K video and constant updates, and they still last years. My parents' old TV might have worked for decades, but it only got three channels and weighed a ton. The stuff we have now does a hundred things at once and gets used way harder.
