It just looks so... technological

I always go for the clear plastic replacement shells for my electronics. I got a Dreamcast with a chewed up shell that is now clear blue, did my GBA SP in a clear green a couple of years ago, and I'm looking into reshelling my Wii too now.

Eventually all of these products found a place in our hearts.

And our brains, our kidneys and for some of us, our balls.

Graphite iMac G3 is perfection.

Yeah. Love that round fucking mouse, and that computer with a space heating, ESD producing CRT crammed into the same chassis. Those things were fucking garbage.

I like how they threw a 2DS into the pile of late 90s, early 2000s tech.

Fun factoid of the day: The Nintendo 2DS only actually has one screen. Go ahead, open one up, you'll see...

Initially I agreed, but actually I think it stands. The design is similar enough, regardless of era. Honestly, I really do wish this kind of design would come back

RGB, plastic edition.

Black is beautiful 🖤

@Stamets I'll admit it looks cool, but leaving your clear Gameboy out in the sun was a bad idea.

The original iMac being the device that kicked off the colored, translucent plastic craze of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

There was a translucent George Foreman grill!

One of these is not like the others

There is one thing In here not like the others...

That translucent blue plastic becomes about the most absolute brittle shit over time. When they say plastic lasts hundreds if not thousands of years, translucent blue plastic missed that memo.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 4 months ago (2 children)

When they say it lasts, they don't mean it stays in the exact same condition and shape.

Most of it is in my balls now.

Well, you're not wrong..

Plastic lasts thousands of years, most of it lasts tens of thousands of years but blue plastic singlehandedly brings down the average.
