I do miss the days when tech was more whimsical. Everything from video game UI to clippy to general design styles. Much like how I enjoy older movies because they feel more sincere than a lot of modern, mainstream movies where every sincere moment gets interrupted by a flippant joke or jarring tone change 10ms later. It feels like nowadays media is designed more to look cool than to _be_ cool/fun/etc.
