There was a brief period of time when upgrade modules for computers looked like upgrade modules for computers.
@nina_kali_nina the ones used for audio gear are sooooo gorgeous. the roland wave cards just straight up look like props Gibson would describe

Funk 3 is alright but Funk 1 & 2 were better

@emi @nina_kali_nina is this a good venue to confess my recent eBay binge on VHS-C and esoteric 1990s tapes?

Some of them have a luxury soap bar aesthetic, or deluxe chocolate bar. Others are clearly waiting to be smoked. I can’t wait to crack open and take a drag on a General Electric TC-20.

@emi @nina_kali_nina of course the boss design is this TDK set of S-VHS-C — it’s even European SE-C45 — that looks like a limited edition tobacco product only available at select bordellos

@emi @nina_kali_nina I want to see what @NanoRaptor might do with this … do we call it VHS-logocore?
@whophd @nina_kali_nina I see the cig pack, but I offer that the GE looks like a tiny paper ream.
@emi @nina_kali_nina oooh 😮 yes!!

@emi @nina_kali_nina What about this JVC, I think has been on the tobacconist’s shelf for a decade or more? The other two from TDK and Fuji look like corporate bulk-buy refills for the office bathrooms that still use bars of soap.

@whophd These are so much fun. I'd love to see these compiled in a neocities or similar page.
@emi I’ll curate the museum and do a YouTube tour, if you’ll attend?
