A Logitech speakers system. Got it about 20y ago when the brand was still awesome (and actually called Logitech). 100% analog and it works to this day. I dread the day it dies.

2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.

i bought a new 2.1 system for my pc a few years ago and there isnt much that changed compared to the old ones. so you don't have to fear as much enshittification as in other Logitech branches
Xreal One Pro head-mounted display glasses. They've really changed how I watch TV shows and movies.
A Tribit Bluetooth speaker. It's waterproof, loud enough and lasts for many hours. I use it in the shower mostly, but it's been a car speaker, landed in mud and been washed in the sink. Is good
A robot vacuum still brings me joy every day
And my shockz bone conducting headset is great
And replacing windows with cachyos
Comma 3x it’s a module that adds sensors and compute to turn your car into a level 2 self driving vehicle.
Glinet travel router. I always have both wifi and hardline with me wherever I go, whether or not I have either.
Sabrent thunderbolt dock. It has NVME drives inside of it so I can have my laptop be mobile then come home and have all my games ready to go.
Dockcase dongle. Most dongles suck, this does 100 watt pass through charging, gigabit, 4k 120hz and 20gb transfers on the ports.
Recently, I'd say it's the new¹ desktop/monitor I got. Needed a monitor upgraded and new HDMI ti make it all work. I was a little bummed about the monitor upgrade since the old TV I was using works perfectly fine, but the new monitor at least takes up less bulk and weighs less, so I'm not as worried about a collapsing desk.
Definitely an upgrade from the ~$400USD budget computer I got around 2021. Don't remember what graphics card, but as a software guy and not a hardware guy, I see 2021 release year and the ability to run Yooka-Laylee without lag and I am happy.
Don't have access to it right now, so I cannot say anything more specs wise. Either way, I like it well enough.
¹ new as in from a pawn shop. Got lucky.
Bought one of the cheap fitness trackers (Xiaomi Band 8) out of curiosity for the step counting.
Has become one of my most used tech items ever.
Incredibly useful, not just the fitness tracking (that too, though - probably also actually improved my health).
Checking messages without taking out the phone, setting timers for all kinds of stuff, an alarm clock that alarms not my wife but just me, remote controlling audio and video playback, and - last but not least - after 20 watch-less years finally being able to tell the time just by looking at the arm again :-)
Late to the party, but my Sonos home theater system has been an absolute joy.
