Just reminded me of my favorite toy as a kid, the IR-7000 [1]. I convinced myself I was Ethan Hunt riding around on my bike with it in my pocket.
Cool to see this working.

I love this, but feedback to the author: the combination of a quirky font and quirky colours make this incredibly hard to read.
I think it’s the contrast that’s the problem, rather than the choice of font (although serif fonts can be slightly harder to read). Lighten the background slightly, and darken the text slightly, and it would be much more readable.
I really enjoy this format. Like reading a story from the authors life. Like you might read in an autobiography.
I don’t think I write this way very often, but I enjoyed reading it.
My takeaway is to write a bit like a journal more often.
A Casio FX-730P got me through secondary school. Sitting there programming during every lesson instead of paying attention.
I just ordered a Cardputer Adv on a similar interest. I saw the Cardputer Zero is sold out on Kickstarter! I miss my LG Phenom :(
That "AI-generated fake magazine advert" for the VX-4 is glorious.
Man, one of these was my fever dream as a kid.
This is so awesome.
