I don't consider the items you mention as "laughably anachronistic". Many of the things you mention can be social items that come and go with the times. One example is my visits to Mystic Seaport, specifically the whaling ship Charles W. Morgan. Inside the museum, you could type in your name and receive a printout of the ship's crew manifest with your name included, all the names written in cursive as if you were there 150 years ago. "But computers murder cursive!" ... well maybe, but I was still there enjoying the experience. "But computers have nothing to do with connecting humans with there past!" ... and yet there I was tapping on a touchscreen and receiving a printout of a "150 year old manifest" of the ship I just walked through with my name on it. Yes that smoking in a spaceship while you hunch over your portable typewriter the size of a suitcase is outdated, but people still have flexible imaginations which accommodate such things. I don't see the problem.
