Time to build another pyramid, a 'time capsule' of things that have outlived their usefulness. Into the sarcophagus go the very best examples of stuff we don't need/want any more. Farewell slide rule (a Pickett 10-10 Trig made of aluminum), farewell SLR (Nikon F2 and a roll of Ektachrome film?), Farewell
to all the beautifully made servants of mankind that are now and forever obsolete.

I was thinking this might be some kind of sealable
container, afforded diplomatic rights from some
Westerly country, and by that method adopting said
country's time-zone conventions, which upon calling
"Time" at the bar, those individuals wishing to finish
their drinks at a more leisurely pace, could retire
within to so do. |

Also, film is not obsolete, it is very much alive and
well. |

Stone tools continued to be made well into the bronze age, but with far less sophistication and skill. The older technology is not always made entirely obsolete by the newer. |
