I remember doing a report in high school chemistry class, 75 years ago, on the promise of e-ink technology.

You talked about e-ink in high school in 1950?

That must have been a typo, sarcasm or trolling. Looking at the users other submissions, they seem to have parents [1], go to the gym [2] and use Tinder [3] which seems unlikely if they are ~90 years old.

It was an exaggeration. High school was decades ago, but it feels like a million years. We thought e-ink tech would be widespread within a handful of years. Little did we know.
