I will take no arguments

Never forget what they took from us

Translucent products had been around for a decade prior to those iMacs. If anything, they marked the beginning of the end for the trend.

You're a fan of the half-transparent aesthetic? I'm not.

[obi@sopuli.xyz]

Literally just got a semi-transparent Xbox controller. My kid loves looking at the rumble motor moving inside.

Also cheap emulation devices like anbernic keeping atomic purple alive

Funner follow-up: this definition is correct and true to the original usage of “factoid”, however, the alternative definition meaning “a small or minor fact” has been used often enough that it’s generally accepted, and appears in several dictionaries. Ain’t English grand!?

Argument

[postmortal_pop@lemmy.world]

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.

[fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk]

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. ️️

[postmortal_pop@lemmy.world]

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

[pyroneurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

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

[lime@feddit.nu]

inflammable means flammable?! what a country...

[vindictivejudge@lemmy.world]

Still perplexed Nintendo hasn't released atomic purple joycons.

[rangerjosey@lemmy.ml]

100% agree

[solidshake@lemmy.world]

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

[herrvogel@lemmy.world]

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.

[elliot_crane@lemmy.world]

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