TürkçeThings are going to be deprecated in 50 years
I’ve read an article about things are going to be deprecated in 50 years. I wanted to share list of these things.
By the way, there should be a self-criticism because I couldn’t imagine myself reading these type of “catchy things” short time ago. But It arouses curiosity due to relationship with future. (Also this curiosity comes from mixture of futurism and science-fiction culture and it makes an occasion :P) Nevertheless, It’s not the same thing with what Internet journalism do.
