    I’d add 13 mini. Yes they didn’t have a mini last year with the 14, but this year they removed it completely from the non-refurb Apple Store.

    yawn. I do not think it is possible for me to be less interested in tech gadgets. Society needs to reject all this crap so we can recapture living in the moment.
    CNET is so lame.

    Remeber Google Glasses. that were so ahead of its time and a game changer back in the day. amazing and bought one back in the day and now its no more. so sad

    Because a Billionaire buying up a tech firm and bringing back free speech is obviously destroying it. Got it…

  23. @BuzzMediaUS

    December 20, 2023 at 7:23 pm

    Netflix DVDs were the biggest tech loss in the last decade or two. The pathetic thing was most people didn’t know DVDs had the newest and most obscure (older) titles.

    Evil Queen = Fitness Mirror Mirror on the wall, who is the Fittest one of all?

    Fitness Mirror = Not you, because you too lazy to go to a gym. I was too expensive for most people so now I have been discontinued. Looks like you were too late to get a refund. I will forever be a reminder of all that money you wasted.

    Evil Queen = Eats poison Apple herself.

    Google Stadia also died this Year. Amazing service in the last few years with terrible marketing. In a world full of subscriptions, the platform that offered you the opportunity to purchase content was not sucessful, let that sink in.

    We always complain that in subscriptions we dont own anything, however 99% of people that use services like Spotify or Netflix dont care

  26. @mikeknowlton3690

    Is that outfit supposed to be titillating with the holes punched out on her neck and wrists. I’m confused

    “The real glassholes were inside us all along…”
    Good point.

    Besides that, Google and Microsoft have a long history of devices and ventures that are in the grave.

    AI is not the problem.

    It’s corporations that owning and abusing it to become even more rich and powerful.
    Change our Economic system. Democracy and fair wealth for everyone and not just the 1%.

    My tech never dies. I still use a 12 year old laptop; don’t ask what my operating system is; that’s classified.

    I guess you have to be as big as Google to fail twice with the same product. I remember attending their first Glass Roadshow event in the fall of 2013. The hands-on experience was underwhelming.

  48. @mystromix

    December 21, 2023 at 2:01 pm

    Twitter/X is alive. I’m sorry to disappoint you Carrey. Also, the blue check mark is still there. Go showing your bias by spending time on a tech that didn’t die in a “Tech that Died” segment. 😂🤡
