I will take no arguments

I actually took a busted one of those and fit a 32in flat into it. Blocks off a little of the edges with the frame and gives it that square screen look without losing anything important. Cheap soundbar sounds amazing inside the box, everything is plugged into a surge protector inside and fed through the antenna hole.

I really want to get a Vintage breadbox or radio to put the DVD player inside of.

That sounds amazing. I'd love to see a photo. I'd planned a similar project with an old radio, but it's one of those things that's been on my "I'll get round to it eventually" list for 5 years

Honestly, I am really happy we passed that transparent bubblegum-toy style. My hope is that we move towards physical buttons again, at least where they make sense (cars for example).

Imo the old Macintosh design is the 1969 VW Beetle/ bus of computers. ️️

I'm snap a pic when I get home, I still need to find the right tacky fabric to finish the boarder, but it at least works

I got one in 'atomic purple' because that is the most rad color.

inflammable means flammable?! what a country...

Still perplexed Nintendo hasn't released atomic purple joycons.

100% agree

Games that HAD to be complete and bug free when released.

Wish granted. Now everything comes with those cheap shitty bubble-like buttons that are incomprehensibly stiff and only work if you press at just the right angle with just the right amount of force, and there's a 50% chance they register twice.

My favorite is irregardless, having an identical meaning to “regardless”, just because linguistics nerds get so tilted by it.

[dmention7@lemm.ee]

Hot take... This trend was just a modern (at its time) reimagining of the TRUE peak of tech design: 80s era clear cases with brightly colored interior components.

Fun fact, you can relive the old days by going to prison and being on good behavior to get a transparent TV or radio/CD player in your cell very similar to this.
