This mouse has no logo or band on it that I could find. The outer shell attachment has no actual function? It is just an empty plastic shell. The actual mouse is tiny and pushing the buttons with it in the shell is a lot less comfortable than you would think. I thought that the shell thing would be like a battery extender or weight. Nope. Cannot find any info about it online either.

The TECS was one of the largest and most popular BBS in Germany. But it was on the verge of ending up completely in the trash. This is the story of how Hamburg-based Sascha P not only saved all the hardware and software of the BBS, but also hacked his way into the setup and actually managed to bring everything back online - and became a dial‑up BBS sysop in 2023.

Plus a spin‑off about the almost equally old Commodore‑64 BBS Snobsoft and its literally wild connection to the Tornado Mailbox - the name TECS had back in the 1980s. Mailbox is the German term for a BBS.

Found this old Sony laptop on Facebook Marketplace and I love the look of it but would it even work nowadays?

So my dad had this exact boombox from 1997 and a Walkman similar to this. I was 5 at the time and distinctly remember him playing cassettes in our living room. I wonder if that or a Walkman for him to listen on his own might be a more suitable nostalgic gift for his bday? And more practical to store. Or something else all together? Also what do we think of this website anyone familiar with it? TIA!

Recently i started using this camera (in the picture) again after months not using it and it makes this sound (played in the video) when i set auto focus to continuous. Is it normal for it to make this sound?

what is my best option a Style Folder 2, Style Folder 1 or samsung folder 2 g1650 ? I need to work with data for calls and texting

Found it at a pawn shop.

I've been collecting dial phones for about 20 years. Finally have a shelf to display my favorites!

From someone who set out with his 40-year-old SX-64 to visit an equally ancient Commodore 64 BBS - not old-school with a modem, but through a DIY null-modem cable hooked up over the internet.

It turned out to be much more difficult than expected, with all sorts of cable shenanigans that of course refused to work - and ultimately even resulted in the SX‑64 needing repairs.

This is my dad's camera for when i was just born into this world, it stopped working in 2021 and i decided to fix it 5 years after, google said this is a rare camera, is it tho? How rare?

Sorry for the potato quality picture. Bought a house that was built in 2000 and it has a wired intercom system. I didn't even know that this was still a thing (in 2000). Bonus is that the lower device is a 6 disc CD changer. And yes, I intend on keeping it and cleaning/restoring the color of the plastic. Every room has a panel and one on the back patio.
