I’m pretty sure the animal they used to make transparent stuff went extinct, like the one they used for the original McRib.
That phone. My first love had that phone in her bedroom. I walked 20 miles to see her once when I was 14. Man.
She married my brother a decade later haha.
That’s rough buddy
I dodged a bullet.
She developed a drug problem.
One night I was over at their apartment and she was sitting on the dryer crying and screaming at everyone (Xanax).
She launched herself off of the dryer and started beating her face on the floor. She stood up bruised, bloodied, and beaten and said, “look what he done to me. Call 911.”
I said, “Girl, if my brother gets arrested because you beat yourself up, I’m going to give you a reason to call 911, I promise.”
They divorced not long after that, he got custody of their kid and he went on to marry a damn good woman.
Part of me feels like he asked for that chaos.
My niece and I are very close and I love her with all of my heart. So it worked out really.
That’s quite a lot. I’m sorry you all jad to go through that. I hope she got help and I’m happy that you all are in better places overall. Thanks for sharing.
She’s actually doing really good these days according to my niece. I appreciate you.
My life is awesome these days. Exhausting, but awesome.
A friend of mine had one in his dorm room. We called it Pavlov because you had to answer when it rang.
Fun fact: Transparent electronics are a thing because prisons require radios, TV, etc to be able to be seen inside and companies later realised they looked cool.
Not even transparent. Colorful design, actual individuality, recognizable imagery, etc.
Now, everything have to be like “a letter or two in one color, inside a flat geometric shape in another color”, and the most exuberant logo you can find in a well known product is like the firefox icon that just moved from an actually colorful and detailed fox on a clean blue planet like earth to a 3 and a half color based orange circle and blue dot.
Image Transcription:
X/Twitter post by user cybr angel 👾 @cybrxangel reading: society won’t heal until we bring back colorful transparent technology Underneath are four images, the top left is 5 iMac G3s arranged in a circle and each with a different colour: blueberry (blue), grape (purple), tangerine (orange), lime (green), and strawberry (red). The top right image is a clear purple Nintendo Game Boy Color. The bottom left image is a see through acrylic landline phone from the 90s. The bottom right image is a clear purple Nintendo 64 with 6 controllers arranged in a semi-circle in front of it in the following clear colours from left to right: blue, watermelon (red and white), green, orange, atomic ice blue, and atomic purple.

“X post” kinda also refers to “crosspost”. I’d suggest to instead use “Twitter/X post”. Otherwise, keep up the great work <3
That’s a fair point, I’ve changed it to X/Twitter post. Thank you!
A few more line breaks and/or paragraphs would have made the transcript a little more legible. And if you’d like me to nitpick, the GBC in question is clear purple.
Beyond that, you’re doing us a great service. Keep it up 👍
I’ve made some edits, and I appreciate the nitpick greatly! Thank you!

I miss this asthetic so freaking much…
It’ll work, just shove em full of RGB lights and they’d fit in perfect with modern builds.
I had that purple n64 controller with a special transparent edition also of Zelda the Ocarina of time. What a time to be alive it was!
Could look for some prison stuff for sale
You can see all the working bits!
I love bits!
Bits please!
8bitdo has a retro style universal controller :3 its good.
Yeah nah, let’s leave that in the past
Is this posted by the guy I accidentally had sex with in Cyberpunk 2077?
