@maple I like :computerfairies: , especially since it's our favicon as well. :paw_fx90_thumbs_up:

But I kind of like :bunpats: , :maple2: , and :maplepat: as well. :3c

As far as I'm concerned, "Space: 1999" jumped the shark with the very first episode of season 2. Well, YouTube suggested a season 2 episode (s2e8, specifically), this image was the thumbnail, & my first thought was "evil Burger King on the Moon."

If only Star Wars was released 2 years earlier, the "Space: 1999" creators might've called the series "Death Star Trek" instead.

@troubleMoney No kidding, I stumbled on Project Xanadu, a hypertext system from the '60s, & I got there from looking up Olivia Newton-John's "Have You Never Been Mellow" less than an hour ago.

Personally, I believe that "gender reveal" parties are BS, if nothing else then for being held between five & 50 years too early.

A forgotten masterpiece of a music video, now 38 years old and having aged magnificently, "Can You Feel It" by the Jackson 5: youtube.com/watch?v=9nP4WE_-uq

This is incredible. There's a CMD SuperCPU for sale on eBay right now. Bidding started at 99 cents, and it's now up over $2,000. ebay.com/itm/CMD-SuperCPU-Acce

The SuperCPU is a Commodore 64 accelerator in an oversize cartridge. To put the bids in perspective, from 1997 to 1999, CMD was selling them for $199 without RAM expansion (which this one seems to be) up to $379 with the maximum of 16 MB.
