@foone What about a cool crab sticker? :D

@ActionRetro Did you know: the Robbie Williams song Millennium was actually about Windows ME

@ActionRetro The police are on their way now 🚨

@ActionRetro It's so good on old machines 😻

@ActionRetro Congratulations :D

@ActionRetro Boom! Thank :D

Hey @ActionRetro! We've just discovered a glorious new feature of the ridiculously cheap aliexpress camera!

If you take the SD card out and plug it into a computer, it BECOMES A WEBCAM!

Here it is showing up under the camera name GENERAL - AUDIO in my Zoom settings. Time to zhuzh up those boring work calls with an unmistakeable æsthetic :D

@ActionRetro boo-yah, as the kids probably no longer say 🎉

@ActionRetro Somewhere between Cthulu and Ood.

@ActionRetro quicker than I would have expected!

@ActionRetro sometimes there are no words 😜

@ActionRetro The GL stands for ‘Good Looking’!

He’s melted #caturday

@ActionRetro It’s hard to say. They got it right in the Pacific Northwest when they combined the two to create the banana slug! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_slug

I just wanted to go to bed, but now there’s a really big slug on the floor. Banana for scale.

@ActionRetro Magic! Thank you :D

And just look at that text-based resolution :D

This is the command I ran to make it happen:

mplayer -really-quiet -vo caca imac.mp4

Okay, how about we use an old iMac running Linux to show an @ActionRetro talking about putting Linux onto an old iMac, but using the command line in the text console?

A totally normal way to watch videos.
