obsoletize

To make obsolete.

To obsoletize poisoning non-smokers, Charles Knows invented a Safe Smoking Lounges (SSLs) and got permission to erect it on Coney Island Beach to see how many smokers used it voluntarily. SSL's have a solar-powered ceiling fan which blows cigarette smoke up a chimney to the atmosphere to prevent the cigarette smoke from injuring non-smokers.

Enforced Obsolescence

A more heavy-handed version of Planned Obsolescence usually employed in the high-tech industry, especially software. Consumers of a product are forced to upgrade through some new technology rendering an old one literally unusable, usually through unnecessary incompatibility issues.

Porting a game from the 360 to the PC, rewritten to require DX10 when DX9 was used originally and clearly runs the game, can only be Enforced Obsolescence.

obsolation

1. The nature of becoming obsolete.
2. The sound a duck makes when you beat it with a baseball bat.

The nuclear power plant led to the obsolation of the old tire burning plant. The old tire burning plant led the obsolation drive on peasant oppression. While dominating any multi-player game, bonus points will be awarded for yelling "Obsolation!" after each victory...
