I don't have a huge affinity for old tech/computers but this just seems.... pointless? I won't go as far to say "pointlessly cruel" since it's a machine but still, destruction for the sake of destruction. It's like those YouTube/TikTok'ers who waste food or destroy things as "pranks", I just don't get it.

This machine was already scrap. They managed to get it working and found a purpose for it. And even after all the torture they put it through, they committed to getting it working again and again. I think that's way more admerable than the people you're comparing with.
- joshstrange 3y ago> I think that's way more admerable than the people you're comparing with. That's fair and I agree with you, it still just feels off to me. As in I felt uncomfortable reading through it. I'm saying they are bad people or anything, just I don't understand it.

- mchanson 3y agoPretty sure, for all you weirdos with poor senses of humor, that the folks behind this do more to preserve retro computers than most of you put together. This was a beautiful art project that is well and humorously presented.
