@tubetime I love the Cat! I’m glad I got to use the one at @mediaarchaeologylab. It’s definitely a different paradigm of computing that takes some getting used to

@tubetime Caturday. It's an Internet tradition bigger and older than Mastodon. No one's certain when or where it started, but it was known by at least 2005.

@tubetime @48kRAM Wow. What an… interesting design decision to put buttons below the space bar. I think this is the first I’ve ever seen of that.

@tubetime It's a pretty cool cat, though it doesn't wake you up too early in the morning for food.

@tubetime the text based terminal nature of the early computing revolution really was the top.

@tubetime OMG, too funny! I've always had a bit of an interest in the Canon Cat. I think a good working one is out of my budget. :-)
