What's the oldest technology you continue using?
Some of my coworkers were talking about using RSS to read blogs, which made some of the younger folks in our team ask what it is and why we keep using it.
Some still use iPods to avoid subscriptions and streaming services, my favorite was one of our sysadmins who showed me Gopher.
I’m curious about others though, thanks!

I have a “data transcription machine” which is meant to pull data off of old media. It has:
- 3½″+5¼″ combo floppy drive
- IDE hot swap cage
- Zip 250 IDE drive
- Jaz 2Gb SCSI drive
- Internal 50-pin and 68-pin SCSI controllers
Let’s just say that I have enough devices cross my bench that SpinRite 6 gets a monthly workout on some piece of old storage tech or another. Not everything is recoverable, but…
Bet it sounds awesome
