The rest of the world just doesn't realize we peaked at fax machines and 3.5" floppy discs. That's why in Alien they're still using CRT screens. At some point we realize we made a mistake and go back.
That one guy still selling floppies will be so happy.
Dude I went and bought a wide screen 1080i CRT.
Games look much better on it than any LCD.
I yearn for solarpunk cassette futurism.
Every device needs...
A potentiometer dial. Big, with a thumb depression or folding winding arm.
<8in CRT display. Preferably with indecypherable graphs. Yes, the lawnmower, too.
A full tape deck with record because you might hear that one bop on the radio and all you have is your hairdryer.
3.14in floppy drive or some form of microdisk if the device is too small.
Beige or steel-gray. Options for accents of black, white, or red.
Boxy, injection-molded shell.
Antennae.
