The CD-ROM was predicted to replace all paper documents. Instead, it mostly replaced our ability to keep jewel cases uncracked. Did you use CDs that way?

Do you have pics of your 1st phone? 1st smartphone was the IBM Simon. It had email, fax a stylus, but only 1 hr battery life. $899 in 94'. 🤯I may have reviewed my Droid Eris back in 2010. 👀

Microsoft’s real origin story wasn’t Windows. 💾 10 Pts if you can guess my new vid ‪@NixiePixel‬ : https://f.mtr.cool/qvbatkpbnu

Collage with a nixiepixel serious face, Paul Allen and bill gates sitting, and a Star Wars poster. Red note says "Knock Knock."

Is being an adult just a really buggy OS that we all have to run? Because my task manager is always showing 100% memory usage

coffee.exe helps. What else?

Surgery went well and I'll be back to content this week! My lil' rebel Lando Catrissian wants to make sure you know I'm okay, and that you have a happy Monday 🐱

Nightmare pic for attention to warn you. ⚠️ Scammers are impersonating me. I’ll NEVER ask for donations via DM/WhatsApp/comments. Only legit site is my nixiepixel Patr3on there's no recent posts there. Re: Content- I had surgery last week, recovering now. More vids this week! 💾

Every single weekday, we hop in our cars, hit the same roads, follow the same route to work. Yet we never really see the same cars twice. It's like a constant, ever-changing parade of metal and rubber. Happy Monday!

Okay so once we're all cruising in self-driving cars, are windshield wipers going to be obsolete? I mean, the car doesn't care if it can "see" through a dirty window, only us humans do.

Imagine if our 24-hour clocks flipped the script, starting at 23:59 and ticking down to 00:01. Do you think we'd squeeze more out of every moment if we felt that sand slipping away? Oh yeah, happy Friday. 🤓

If life were a video game, what kind of stats would you have? I think I'd seduce the tomato.

Don't forget, email almost killed the postal service. Then, ironically online delivery revived snail mail to be more needed than ever! Since today is Prime Day, it's a perfect time for an #ad on this epic book on how we can de-shittify the Internet😎:

Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It

Did you know that the original IBM PC shipped in 1981 with just 16 KB of RAM, about the size of a single emoji pack today? 🍿🤏😯

Y'all have been amazing about my return. 🥹 Those asking to support...donations feel weird atm, but Prime Day is tomorrow. Need to renew or get a free 3-month Audible trial via my link? https://amzn.to/4ewIJJy
I earn a tiny commission & you save. Thanks and no pressure! 💾

Why do our movie hearts beat for AI to become human, but in reality we seem to be against it? (pic credit @Detroit_Game)

Why do people think night owls are lazy, and early birds are virtuous? It's not like we do less, it's just at different times... 🦉🤷‍♀️

Your comments on my latest video blew me away! I had to capture this moment to show you the state I'm in. 🥹 Thanks for being here these past 15 years. 💞 What retro tech should I cover next?

I'm a very elaborate, flower-based sentry. Hard-hat wearing cat says I should stream again. What would you want to see? Is playing Fallout too close to home, or Magic: The Gathering, or.... cozy, 'forget-the-apocalypse-for-a-bit' video games? 🤓

Tolerating the sound of your own voice on a recording is probably the highest form of self acceptance. Prove me wrong 😝

If time travel existed, would we then have time tourism so moments in time would get crowded with tourists?

I wonder if bosses might be way more chill about remote work if commute time actually counted as paid work hours... by law.

I’m not political on here. Not because I don’t care, or don't have an opinion... but because I created my channel to be an open source series and rant-free escape hatch from red/blue pill dumpster fires. Now look at the no drama Robo Llamas.🤓
