I wish ppl used this subreddit a little less literally. Some things are just never gonna last a literal entire lifetime. I wish ppl used it more as an “insane quality” type of subreddit. If anybody knows of one like that, let me know!

Ya, I see a lot of people asking about electronics/appliances on this subreddit. I hate to break it to people, anything you have to plug in, or uses batteries, ain’t gonna be BIFL. Seems like people are using this subreddit more as a Consumer Reports replacement. I’d like to see more of the “insane quality“ posts too.

I have to plug in my GE clock radio that I bought in the early 1980s. I'm still using it and it's functioning perfectly. So is my Technics receiver and turntable that I purchased in 1981.
