  • Transistors is the defacto answer. We wouldn’t have anything we have now without them.

    Oh you say but what about (this thing) that doesn’t have any in it? The factory it was mass produced in runs on transistors.

    Going down the list of comments in this post:
    Telephones. Always had transistors.
    Internet. Obvious.
    Coal. Everything from the trucks to the converors, to the systems that track production, and all the transportation involved after uses them.
    Washing machines also use them even if they’re not the stupid “smart” machines people buy for some reason.

    Edit. If you’re in anyway curious about transistors here’s a new video from Asianometry about them:
