[OT] Fun website, Obsolete SKILLS.
These skills are things we used to know that are no longer very useful to us.
A few examples including:
Dialing a rotary phone
Putting a needle on a vinyl record
Changing tracks on an eight-track tape
Shorthand
Using a slide rule ....
FUN to READ. Post up here some that you feel are now obsolete.
