The cursed universes of Dana Sibera
I love it! All those grey and beige machines still feel like someone is about to do something amazing on them, even though modern stuff is better in basically every way.  It&#x27;s like seeing the alternate possibilities for how tech could have developed, and invites you to ask &quot;What if we had tech just like now but used it differently&quot;.<p>Is the fact that all tech has mostly the same look related to the fact that it&#x27;s mostly all just used for consuming the same content?  Smartwatches have greatly changed how I use tech, what other possibilities are we still ignoring?<p>I wonder why we don&#x27;t have tablet cases that look like old laptops. Even thought form and function are more separate than ever, we have way more boring aesthetics, just ever thinner phones I&#x27;ll immediately put a rubber case on as soon as I take them out of the box, and cases that all kinda look the same.<p>It&#x27;s a good thing partly, because stuff is thin and light and cheap, but I&#x27;d think there&#x27;d be <i>some</i> serious products that keep the old 2000s look, or at least accessories that have it.
