Logging onto the fediverse....

Note: I shamelessly stole this post and image from someone else because while it was in my feed, when I went to go click on it, it was no longer there, meaning it had been deleted. Rather than deprive the world of such a thing, I decided simply to steal it. For great justice.

Edit: I swapped it out, because it was AI slop.

@ColesStreetPothole I like honest pirates πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ 🀣
@SeaFury I follow the code! Well, they're more like guidelines, actually....
@ColesStreetPothole "Obviously a Casio product" Exact same watch, sans keyboard, is probably still at the bottom of a drawer here somewhere.
@rejinl πŸ˜‚ Yup. I didn't have the keyboard one myself, but know folks who did.
@ColesStreetPothole My mom was an accountant and a big fan of Casio calculators, so for years we were not allowed to even consider other brands for anything. If Casio made it, we could only get Casio.
@rejinl Your mom knew what was up.
@ColesStreetPothole omg i had a casio watch with rubber keyboard buttons. I shaved them all off in an accident with a sheet of glass! (At least I didn’t cut my hand off/slash my wrist!)

@ColesStreetPothole

This thing is going to replace CDs. Guess I'll have to buy the White Album again.

@ColesStreetPothole I disapprove of the method of loading.ALWAYS hold the disk by the edges, so body oil cannot transfer onto the disk face. Otherwise, the concept is ace.
@ColesStreetPothole I want this 256k CD watch!
@ColesStreetPothole
Wait, WTH? Why did you change the image?
@tankgrrl Turns out original was AI slop, so I swapped this in. 😁
@ColesStreetPothole
Ah, sad... that image was cool, but yeah. I understand.

@ColesStreetPothole
Aww, come on! Why'd you change the image?

Anyway, I had one of *those* in 1979. Better sound than the 1988 watch, but not as portable.

@sloanlance Because it is AI slop. That must be why the person I stole it from deleted their original post.
@ColesStreetPothole where did you find that picture?
