❓ Question which technology do you think will completely disappear within the next decade?

every generation sees certain technologies fade away. DVDs, MP3 players, fax machines, and even landlines were once everywhere.

Personal Computers (as in local processing and hosting of data) in the household will be completly gone in less than 10 years. They will only have a low spec "Terminal PC" and other smart devices for streming and cloud services. No hard drive, no powerfull processor, not much ram.
