@NanoRaptor If they made a UV-emitting MacBook, half of the MacMacs would burst into flames.
@NanoRaptor The UV-C one is self-disinfecting! It may also occasionally disinfect its user into blindess.
@NanoRaptor (Yes, I am making the dear reader remember when the people around bored apes met up and went blind from super cool lights.)
@ozzelot @NanoRaptor The apes *and* the retinas were gone!
@zbender @NanoRaptor It turns out the retinas were much less fungible than the apes.
@ozzelot @NanoRaptor They got fungible and frangible confused?
@zbender @ozzelot @NanoRaptor I don't get this but it seems clever

@ozzelot @NanoRaptor THREE TIMES

this happened THREE TIMES

@ozzelot @NanoRaptor different groups as well. in two cases it was the orgas going "we're smart, we can do our own lighting right?!", then buying the suspiciously cheapest UV tubes they found. in the other case they hired the cheapest cowboys out there on short notice, who also bought the suspiciously cheapest UV tubes they could find.

worth noting that, in all cases, the tubes were clearly marked as UV-C.

@NanoRaptor If it just absorbs visible light and reflects UV, it's probably not too bad...

@NanoRaptor hypoallergenic self sterilizing technology
@NanoRaptor +1 for the correct pluralisation of MacBook Neo in the alt text.
@NanoRaptor Dermatology issues aside the UV-C one is a gorgeous, forbidden, colour!
@NanoRaptor It has a retina display but only once.

@NanoRaptor

Wouldn't even want to touch it .. yak

@NanoRaptor Now THAT'S interesting colour options I would consider! 👀
@NanoRaptor
Are they using the same UV lights that blinded all those crypto-bros? Those lights deserve an award.

@NanoRaptor

Not quite the EUV process we might have been looking for 🤔🤷‍♂️

@NanoRaptor "one mac with a dermatology incident please"
@NanoRaptor Metastacize Different.
@NanoRaptor Oh my god, the first work trip you take that laptop on, and set up to do work in your hotel!
@NanoRaptor this is so actually on brand it's hilarious... which, I know, is why you made it! 🤣
@NanoRaptor damn I want that one
@NanoRaptor Ngl, that last one would be cool to have if it could come in a less skin-cancery version.
@NanoRaptor Can it erase EPROMs and cure solder mask for me?
@NanoRaptor lowkey if that UV-C color of laptop existed, i would buy it immediately because it looks so insanely awesome
