Once you’re done with your shift (no pun intended) at the hospital, how about some Pizza? This is i-Opener, one of the many shortlived internet appliances, this one with a gimmick that keeps on gimmicking.

23. 24. 25. Halfway through! I need a bit of a break. Is this interesting? Should I keep going!? 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. And here is Canon Cat, maybe my favourite failed machine of all time. Look at these Leap keys! I’m somewhat in love with this machine. https://newsletter.shifthappens.site/archive/adult-onset-felinophilia/ That’s it! I hope you liked this sneak peek of my collection– if you did, consider backing the book since this is the level of quality I’ve been aiming at for the visual side… there are a lot more photos like these, and of course a lot more great stories attached to them. @mwichary gah. I really want this book but can't really justify it. Maybe there'll be an edition in future that I will treat myself to ❤️ @mwichary: Thanks for that thread. Gives me much more of an idea what to expect from your book. |

Speaking of spacebar-adjacent gimmicks, I am mildly obsessed with how beautiful is this first NeXT keyboard from 1987, with a bunch of cool subtle things including a Command *bar* underneath the spacebar. As a matter of fact, I just finished writing an essay on it today!
