    Just wondering what passes the test of time? I personally have an old Casio watch and if you count fruit trees, those are pretty old too.

          My mechanical keyboard. I bought a ducky shine 0 with mx blues when I first got into PC gaming about 11 years ago. I want to upgrade to something fancier but it just never dies!

          Ducky shine zero! I have mine from probably around the same time and it's incredibly well built. Not my daily keyboard (I use an ergodox) but it is the keyboard for my gaming PC. I have the mx browns

            Everyday tools? Scissors and knives I've had at least since 2000. (Fiskars stuff is indestructible)

            Computer stuff? My Commodore 64. (Don't use it daily but pretty regularly, sits in a box in my living room for easy access)

                Daily? Probably the coffee mug I've had for 15 years.

                My favorite mug was a gift from my first girlfriend, in my sophomore year of high school. My wife hates that I still have it over 20 years later, but I just like it because it’s fucking huge. I can fit like half a pot of coffee in it. It doesn’t even have the original printed design on it anymore; It has worn down to plain white ceramic.

                    Not daily my l but I've gone hunting every year with a rifle from 1971 I think it said on the licence of the old man who gave it to me.

                        My house is from the 1950s and my truck from 2007. I also have a shemagh scarf I bought when I was about 13 - so around 20 years ago. I’ve got a Leatherman that’s about the same age, too. Then there are two military surplus jackets from Austria - one from 1996 and the other from the 1980s - though I haven’t owned them that long.

                          Probably my razor, shaving brush and soap mug. Bought them around 2012.

                          The soapmug is an Old Spice mug I got second hand off ebay. Not sure when it was made. 80's maybe. The others were bought new.

                            1940s Parker vacumatic skyline.

                            Writes like a dream and it is neat to use a piece of history.

                              Apparently we are just the brain and eyeballs(and female gonads) piloting a meat sack of Theseus.

                                  Do you have no fear of splinters‽ Cause I know those stairs would give me a splinter just by looking at them wrong

                                        Games, mostly.

                                        Also, I wrote the 2024 NaNoWriMo novel with it (and did the same in 2017). Can easily fit a daily sprint's worth of text in memory at once, heh.

                                        I use a few modern add-ons: an SD2IEC drive (lets you use floppy images straight off an SD card) and EasyFlash3 (lets you use cartridge images, including the ability to pack random programs into utility carts).
