We had one of these growing up! Not this exact model, but a three-button remote of the same kinda mechanism. (Heck, knowing my dad, he probably still has it and the tv it goes with.) The buttons have a lot of resistance compared to any kind of modern remote, but the best part about these things? No batteries. Ever. The tv needs power, of course, but not the remote.
(via The buttons on Zenith’s original ‘clicker’ TV remote were a mechanical marvel - The Verge)
The Space Command is a product of mechanical engineering rather than electrical. By pressing a button on the remote, you set off a spring-loaded hammer that strikes a solid aluminum rod in the device, which then rings out at an ultrasonic frequency. Each button has a different length rod, thus a different high-frequency tone, which triggers a circuit connected to a microphone in the television to finish the command.
fascinating old-school tech

Haii :3
I think ur art is kewl :3 (I wonder what you think of mine?)
Thanx, glad you like it! I think you have a fun way of stylization with very few bounaries, go nuts and dont limit yourself!
#On this blog i try to stick to a style because its the nostalgia im after but in my usual art i wouldnt really say i have an artstyle#i think holding on to a style as a way to give yourself identity is more destructive and put me under unnecessary limits; so i dont!#ofcourse i still have tropes i cling to and methods i gravitate to; no helping that; but i wont fuss over style; i know thats not what you#- asked but i have a lot of thoughts about this topic; its difficult to give “opinions” on artstules as they are inherently subjective ^^;#its very difficult for me to judge things whithout being anylitical and that is hard to apply; let alone apply without it being uncalled fo#webcore#furrycore#warrior oc#2000s internet#my art#2000s nostalgia#old web#ms paint#2000s furry#old furry youtube#furry art#digital art#sparklefur#sparklecat#ask

like let me be clear. it's nostalgia-poisoned market products when they’re bad and insightful uses of adaptation and medium when i like them
#t#scope me implying my taste is objective. it's true#i have very complex feelings about this subject.#most of which boil down to: it's not nostalgia i like it right now#like pleaseee be descriptive. it's profiting off people's feelings of nostalgia AND it doesn't engage with the source material in a loving#or meaningful way. the first part certainly informs it but my issue is with the latter#and i dislike an argument that purely focused on the nostalgia part. like yes it sucks there is such an emphasis on it but let's say#something more insightful#i'm pro-adaptation and pro-reboot (umbrella term) because i think it's an inherently interesting way to look at art that meant something to#someone or to many people. in the style of theatre. i am against it in the sense of market influences and oversaturation#girl on film said it very well. that's all i have to say on it now.#i'm sure my current fixation is super opaque and nobody can figure out what i'm reading right now

i am like convinced that the nintendo (3)ds is as close as we'll get to a perfect games console. they didn't need to make any more after this one i think we've got it all figured out
#pers#i could absolutely talk at length on this subject and i do think a LOT of it is just nostalgia and my love for the general game design#choices common in this time period rather than anything inherent to the system itself#but i will probably keep my 2ds xl around for a VERY long time. because it is perfect

Tumblr mutuals if you see me reblogging fucking Lukas (maybe ivor too) from mcsm I am so sorry in advance I have no control over what my brain decides to focus on
#My taste in media is highly subjective and uniquely terrible#But also nostalgia driven#Because watching playthroughs of mcsm made up about 30% of little me's youtube history#Few months ago I had a katamari fixation simply because I played Beautiful Katamari on 360#Look at the little dudes go I love them so much#But also WHYYYYYYY

stage bb ramblings to help my copium lmao:
i love akira-san he’s such a good fit for ichiro 😭😭😭😭
that final stage leaders get together where alan-san revealed their early days of friendship was pretty awkward in part because akira-san wasn’t very chatty with him, but akira-san and jiro’s stage actor getting along pretty much instantly is so ichiro coded LOL
him being an older brother with a mole underneath his eye like comE ON MAN 😭😭😭
since akira-san is a rapper his flow as ichiro is literally insane lol he can also show up to the block party and break dance that’s pretty cool lol
my favourite stage bb thing is their rep live skit where after panicking that he’s still got too much yung thug in him to make a good impression on saburo’s (metaphorical) girlfriend, the princess of aoyama division, he forces jiro to pretend he’s said gf for introduction practice and saburo cries because his brothers are stupid lol
but the moment i always think about is how during stage bb vs dh, they showed ichiro finding out rei’s on sasara’s team, something i’ve always wanted to see canon ichiro react to. and akira-san’s portrayal, the bits of hurt and gutted surprise in his ‘…….he’s on your team?’, and watching him put up his walls and answering sasara’s, ‘how do you know who rei is?’ with silence *clenches fist* is everything i could have ever asked for
much like his seiyuu, jiro’s stage actor is my favourite person in bb to look at LOL
matsuda-san’s smile, his jiro bleps, that long neck of his 😩👌
i firmly believe jiro and saburo will be taller than ichiro once they’re fully grown and thankfully i get a taste of that since matsuda-san is taller than akira-san lol
and!!!!!! i love how aggressive his jiro voice gets!!!!!!! jiro sometimes calls himself a guard dog and tbh i hear it when stage jiro is on the offensive!!!!!!
if you love jiro, you’ll love the character development he goes thru in the 2nd drb arc and matsuda-san was chomping at the bit to act it. maybe that’s the bare minimum but it makes me happy he loves jiro like that to be excited for his growth ;w;
both jiro actors find it absolutely hilarious that their ichiro actors trip over their words all the damn time and it’s so funny to see matsuda-san trying to stay in character while he’s laughing at akira-san lmao
he and saburo’s first stage actor had a really good bantering siblings dynamic when in character, like their adlibs were so in character lol
when akishima-san dropped the role tho, ryuunosuke-san’s saburo wasn’t quite as bratty and it showed in their first fanservice adlib session after their first show together. i just think it’s really sweet matsuda-san adjusted his jiro to butt heads less and to be more encouraging towards ryuunosuke-san’s saburo 😭😭😭
akishima-san’s bratty asf saburo is my preferred saburo tbh but that’s bc i prefer a meaner saburo lmao
whenever he was taunting jiro, he did this jeering little shimmy motion i thought was odd but cute lol
saburo is a haughty asf little 14 year old, and i think akishima-san’s saburo encapsulated that perfectly, but underneath that bravado is a boy with a lot of anxieties, and i think ryuunosuke-san’s saburo showcased that well ;w;
like if i had to classify what ryuunosuke-san’s saburo was amongst all the other versions of saburo out there, he would be the most baby saburo of them all lmao he stands in front of the crowd so politely and he’s a little shy and even cries when he’s overstimulated (by too much dumbassery in his proximity LOL)
i’ll never forget during that final encore of bop 2023, ichiro and jiro started freestyling and once the relay made it to saburo, tho his flow wasn’t as strong as his brothers, he still had a gave his verse and his brothers cheered him on it was so cute they’re the buster bros y’all 😭❤️😭❤️😭❤️😭❤️
#this is vee speaking#it was matsuda-san’s birthday yesterday lol happy birthday matsuda-san 🥳🥳🥳#it probably sucked to see his role recast like that but i’m not joking he and akira-san are very close lol#it’s good sportsmanship and just genuine joy akira-san’s baby brother won the audition for saburo lmao#i think the longer the actor’s been around the more i’m going to miss them esp if i was attached to the division in the first place#and man oh man do i love bb lmao it’s going to be so tough getting over akira-san and matsuda-san 😭😭😭#anyway if i’m good i’ll have a post about each division on the daily lmao but fr only if i’m good lol#i wasn’t expecting to have to set aside nostalgia for the og stage cast at AT ALL but the sooner i can be subjective the better lol

It’s me and the fan versions of “Hanging Tree” from Hunger Games pre-Mockingjay movie that I discovered in middle school circa 2012/13 against the world.
#alia talks#haven’t been in thg fandom in nearly 10 years#but godddddd it was one of my big fandoms in 8th to 10th grade#there were a bunch of fan versions of ‘the hanging tree’ on YouTube long before the movie version came out#all (IMO) much better than the movie version#they were piano/violin/scapula#*acapella not scapula#some were childlike some were dramatic/tragicesque#but good god they hold so much memory and nostalgia#and all of them were better than the pop culture sounding ‘official’ version#anyway if anyone wants me to link them I can#I was able to figure out how to scroll far back in YouTube so I got past all the post-2013 movie crap#and listening to them is so bittersweet#not bc of the subject matter#more than to me they represent an era long past#I was unhappy and insecure in a lot of ways in middle school/early high school#but also innocent in a way I haven’t been since

/obey me! vent/
#jessamine rambles#before i start. pls keep in mind that this is fully subjective and could just be a 'me' problem. i just want to get this off my chest#ngl i've been contemplating on whether i want to stop playing obey me. both the og game and nightbringer#idk i've been playing the game since its first month and while it's given me a lot of joy + memories + chances to befriend other ppl. i'm#pretty burned out. not to mention TIRED of my consistent disappointment with the game#the main story.....where do i start?? i actually enjoyed s1-s3 despite my qualms with the fillers and pacing but s4 disappointed me. i was#rlly looking forward to simeon's storyline and the new characters but ultimately. the devs tried to squeeze too many things into one season#not to mention that there is a notable difference in how the characters are written. i.e. beel's hunger and asmo's beauty#being watered down to running gags instead of the complexities explored in the old dg stories and chara songs#gameplay-wise. i was there when the devs raised the rewards price of the event urs and removed the demon ssrs completely#but nightbringer was the last straw for me. the amount of time it takes to grind for two games. knowing that the og app has essentially bee#abandoned by the devs?? not to mention that while the plot is interesting. i haven't touched the main story ever since the coma arc#i will give credit to the devs for improving the event stories by choosing to focus on 1-2 demons. but it has always felt like a quantity >#quality situation. esp if i were to compare it to my other fandoms#it also doesn't help that i'm currently at a point of my life where i'm questioning if i could use my time on obm for better things#seeing how the game is giving me less reasons to believe it is worth my time#idk this may also be a short-term phase since i DID get back into twst after a long hiatus and i recently got into whb#which btw has felt like a breath of fresh air despite my frustrations with the bugs and current gacha#but yeahhhh........as much as i love the obm characters and fanfics. i'm just tired#at this point i feel like the only reason why i still play the game is due to the nostalgia and so i don't waste the years of grinding#aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh#this is what i get for being the type of player who only plays a few games so they can rlly dedicate their time and passion to it#that's all

inside out 2 is interesting but it sure is the exact same plot as inside out 1 down to the emotions getting stranded outside hq as a core aspect of rileys isbeliminated and having to start from scratch while joy loses hope and cries while watching memories in a pile of memories that were deemed unimportant before being deus ex machinad by an imaginary cartoon
#inside out 2 spoilers#except joy has not learned her lesson about all emotions and memories being valuable and that she is not in charge#of making the call of which emotions are important. she builds her team up by emphasizing the good they do for riley#and continues to be an absolute control freak who puts an emphasis on her own importance seeming to have learned very little#some could argue that the emotions arent distinct enough or are even too nebulous to be their own emotions#and according to many theories in the subject all emotions come from combining multiple of the core emotions#which is why having nostalgia show up for a gag was... interesting. considering the first movie literally showed us joy and sadness memorie#create nostalgic ones. otherwise i mostly just feel like theyre too disparate and am still shocked how joy is like. the only positive#emotion. period.#anyway yeah it kinda underminded the first movies thesis that all emotions are important and helpful by making anxiety basically plain bad#even despite her explanations of why shes good. like she drops her memory in the sense of self and it immediately sprouts ominously#like idk maybe im just quibbling over foreshadowing in a childrens movie but to keep in line with that original thesis#wouldnt it make more sense to get more corrupt only as anxiety continues to flood it with only her emotion#like basing your entire sense of self and personality/beliefs around one emotion entirely is extremely unhealthy#and like it starts normal and gets more erratic as anxiety becomes the ONLY contributing factor. its probably not that important#okay so joy learns her lesson about the memories. but its still like. girl did you not already basically learn this before

being a tmnt fan is rough because as if the fans all being at each other’s throats about which version is better I have to deal with how painfully racist 1987(and even bayverse and smaller parts of a lot of the versions) is and the fucking INCEST and wattpad-y writing in 2012 tmnt
at least tmnt 2003 is pretty agreeable like it’s funny how one of the most progressive versions is 20 years old and everything else has kind of been a train wreck
#btw I LOVE EVERY VERSION#I just wish people could acknowledge the good and bad parts instead of just one or the other#I hate when people say bayverse or 2012 are the best versions because objectively they’re just not#if it’s your favourite that’s cool it has enjoyable parts#but the BEST??#god no the writing is atrocious#tmnt#a lot of it is blinded by nostalgia but I mean… come on#idw tmnt is best overall#show wise 2003 has the best writing#rottmnt has the most style and has pretty good comedy it might not be the BEST but it’s really interesting#they all have flaws though#it’s art and a lot of that is subjective#already seeing people not liking mutant mayhem and like… it hasn’t even come out guys what

Forever love the idea of Kae being an absolute nerd once you get to know him. Dude acts all suave and charming, then upon getting home, his time is most preferred spent reading the latest rec Jean’s given him with a cup of tea in hand and a plushy tucked under his chin. Or is constantly abt .5 seconds away from infodumping or smth, esp the more he gets attached to sb.
#hc; kaeya#//Sb in the knights brings up an obscure fact & Kae has to restrain himself from dumping MORE on the subject#//And/or giddily making plans to investigate it with Lisa later first chance he gets#//I love the idea of him Immediately after finding out Jean loves romance stories; he tries his hand at penning one under an alias#//Then subtly suggests it to her; and just Anxiously awaits what she thinks#//It’s canon that he does love making up stories so; so much#//Dude loves learning things; and the more he likes the person sharing/is intrigued by them; the more he’d wanna#//Love the idea of him specifically learning all abt things his favorite like just to have the connection with them#//Only to genuinely end up interested in the subject for himself and his own whims too; sometimes obsessing more than them initially#//Also loves collecting things; if I remember correct#//Has a lil stash of things he would LOVE to ramble on and in abt given the chance#//In my mind; it’s either collected feathers of birds he’s found over the years#//Or it’s dried/pressed flowers he’s managed to acquire through various means#//Maybe even both#//Do like the latter tho#//Maybe the feathers thing was something he started with Luc as kids; then kept to it out of nostalgia#//Then the plants was just his own interest throughout his journey with his dad before being left at Dawn Winery#//Everything he had collected in a little bag or hastily pressed in a book before an showed him to properly#//Wants to go back and get new flowers so they look prettier now that he actually knows how to preserve them#//And to learn abt them from people who ACTUALLY know them best; not just from books

i love my maths teacher shes so funny
she's that one teacher than will pause the entire lesson just to hear my classmates gossiping to her about whatever, and then gets so hooked that we have to remind her to teach us 😭
and she's so unserious and chill honestly it feels like a teenager is teaching us 😭 not to mention that despite being all of the above, she's really good at her job and literally all of us understand maths cos of her
and every 8th lesson(last lesson) on wednesdays when i have p.e, i head to the class she's teaching, literaly walk in and take a seat, and she says NOTHING
last week wednesday i told her earlier in the day 'i'll be visiting you'(no one can stop me from seeing my favourite teacher haha) and she said "Come over, we'll solve problems together." LMAOOO 😭 that class is now my 3rd class like everyone there knows me 😭😭
and yesterday she sent some problems for us to write down and solve
we reacted with angry/sad emojis, and she responded with 😂. *😂*
im speechless
i look forward to school JUST for her classes
i swear the world needs more teachers like that bc honestly they make learning so easier and suddenly you actually want to go to school and get up early in the morning 😭😭 i've had both good teachers like your math teacher (sounds like a gem) and i can confirm that you will always remember them and they will always remember students like you too!
i had a computer teacher just like that one and i would literally go to the lab and take a free seat, no questions asked. she used to take our photos whenever we had an event and she would get them developed and have me choose whichever ones i wanted and not let me pay hehe! it's been almost 14 years that i last saw her but whenever she goes to my dad's clinic to get checked (she's his patient) she always asks about me and tells him some funny story of mine that she remembers. it's so :'))
i had a few other teachers like that too and yeah they just make school so much better. be good to them, i cannot stress this enough!! i hope you continue to have fun and good times with your math teacher she sounds so fun!
#wish my math teacher was that fun#maths went from being my fav subject to the bane of my existence all in one grade bc bad teacher#but omg the nostalgia this gave me#yumi.asks
