Translucent all the things. 🏳️‍🌈
@ann3nova I've been seriously considering purple transparent thumby ​
@faaln Anything translucent is a good call. :)
@ann3nova Bring back this aesthetic, but maybe mix in some steampunk brass accents for a new look.

@ann3nova I still have my Crystal Xbox in the basement!

It broke though during a thunderstorm. 

@FalconMarkSix Aww. It's pretty, though...so sad it's not working. 💕
@ann3nova If I remember right, you can buy shitty electronics with translucent housings for jails at quite high prizes. But still. Looks cool
@ann3nova It was definitely an era. For iMacs, make sure you check out the funky patterns they did for a generation or two.
@ann3nova i wish i could live the 2000s properly, but i was born the wrong generation​​. Being a mix of genZ/millenial also is cool​
@ann3nova yes, i was grown with the Xbox 360, Ares(like limewire but at south américa), The Sims 1/2, the Harlem shake and being brony
@ann3nova What, no Nokia 3310!!?
@c0m4 Was there a translucent version? :)
@ann3nova It had a replaceable shell. I would 100% believe it if someone told me that there ghost towns in China right now that was once built on making Nokia 3:d party shells for the 3310
@ann3nova I can not boost this enough!!! entertainment technology peaked with dyed translucent shells.
@ann3nova
I really should put a transparent case/shell on my Switch.
@ann3nova I would love to have a laptop in that iBook design. Maybe I get one on ebay and put Linux on it.

@pythno @ann3nova

I've got a blueberry clamshell... I love it

@ann3nova lol my translucent purple gba aged so poorly tho

@miado 😬

Looks like the blue got zapped out somehow.

@ann3nova There was a see-through Sega Dreamcast?  
@ann3nova A reminder that these were electronic gadgets and not magic boxes that you must never open and tinker with
@ann3nova
What a horrible trend that was!
@ann3nova
I should replace my grey maintenance access points with translucent blue ones, or maybe pink 🤔
@ann3nova Never liked it that much as a kid but since I got a PC tower with a glass window, I wish more technology would let you look inside.
@ann3nova So is it fine now to say something is gay now? I'm not trying to offend, just wondering as a person in the LGBTQ community who is living under a rock.
@rooktallon Uh. Why do you ask? :)
@ann3nova Just out of curiosity. Seems like you keep up with all this type of stuff and you seem like you're a good source of current info.
@rooktallon No, I mean...why do you want to call them gay?
@rooktallon I'm confused about the context.
@ann3nova Oh, I was just wondering what you meant by your original post and I wanted to know if it was OK these days to call an object gay as in saying something is the gayest thing or so gay.
@ann3nova
The best part is this trend extended past consumer electronics to all kinds of small appliances, like clothes irons, toasters, blenders, vacuum cleaners...
@ann3nova Is that a 2DS with the LED displays replaced with LCDs?

@ann3nova Translucent Macs would be even better today with backlight LEDs. The translucent Macs not glowing was kind of a letdown.

@thegibson

@ann3nova this is what peak design looks like.
@ann3nova @jenny753 I can’t believe Apple is teasing us the return of Aqua with “Liquid Glass” but still has yet to announce any new translucent hardware to make it totally iMac rad
