Exxon made office products. Pretty sure they were in use at the hospital my was employed.

I wish vehicles like that pickup truck were illegal. The top of their hood is just barely lower than the roof of the CRV. The driver would not see a small person walking or standing in front of that truck.

Old Apple Computer ad likes.. Color. That modem setup.. Nice.

Castle Park Arcade (1982)

You like old computers? Like Coleco and/or ColecoVision? Then check out this Retroist Video Podcast about this vintage computer. xhslink.com/a/bCNnIGILJU...

Bernie Sanders has been warning us for a long time. When he was running in the Dem Primary for the 2016 Presidential race, corporate media chose to put a live camera on an empty podium (of the guy who would defeat Dem nominee in the general election) rather than Bernie. youtu.be/SYxZfksAyco?...

In the mid-1980s, Photon tried to make laser tag into new pastime. On the newest episode of the Retroist Podcast I talk about the arenas, the home sets, the tv show, the toys, and more. The light shines! www.retroist.com/p/retroist-p...

The best #opensource office suite is now even better with support for ODF 1.4, document privacy scrubbing, and new LibreOffice themes.

What I find sad about this photo is that this puppet isn't in a museum. Most likely trashed. I hope I'm wrong.

We'll be seeing these stickers on store shelves and gas stations now, right? #usa

Pinta, an #opensource image editor inspired by Windows app Paint.NET, has released a new beta with new features, effects, and port to GTK4/libadwaita

I feel like today's ads, geared towards kids, aren't this fun.

This is a few days old, but the gerbil, rat, AI talk, on First Ring Daily, is stuck in my head. @thurrott.bsky.social @bdsams.com

Wacky office setup.

Looking quickly, only see three colors. vintage nostalgia

Apple said that it believed in “thriving and dynamic markets where innovation can flourish.." 🙄 This article didn't take the turn I was hoping, that is, that Blackberry and Windows Phone would return.

My mother bought this for my daughter a several years ago. She thought my kid would like having a doll that can walk as you pull it by the hand. My daughter refused to take it out of the box. LoL She's afraid of the Walking Annette doll. Honestly, it's a lot more creepy-looking in person.

😡

And I hated every minute I played it. Had very few options (not many games). Preferred the notorious E.T. game to this.

Me in 1983: *jealous* I want to make pictures with an Atari computer too! She's the luckiest girl in the world.

You could have won a Sega Master System from Pay 'n Save. I didn't have to enter - I had this console back then. 🕹️

The ideal office is outside.

I've stared at this old computer for too long. It just doesn't look like the same monitor. I should use a ruler..

I'm ashamed of Pac-Man.. Look at how much water he wastes while shaving. Yes, Pac-Man shaves.

Memory Unlocked via 1980s Frosted Mini-Wheats commercial.

I would love to drive this strawberry car, but I would probably be accused of showing-off.

This was a well-done commercial for the Atari 2600 video game, Defender. Definitely an exciting game at that time.

Our government has TikTok and its CEO groveling to this guy.. Pfft.

The future was more futuristic in the past.

What happens when the Archie gang goes on “Hot Ones” against the New Crusaders? Hilarity ensues, of course! Coming soon ! @archiecomics.bsky.social

Do you remember these speed reading commercials? youtu.be/d2oN40FPVyw?...

It's a really big Compaq computer ad..
