@NanoRaptor I've thought before it'd be amusing to set up an old desk with some old computers, then film a video on it on a VHS camcorder, and make everything period correct... And then pull out a modern smartphone at the end

@foone @NanoRaptor And suddenly start using modern slang too

@foone a very worthwhile effort. If I’d had a little mor organisational ability at the time I took that pic I’d have moved the NAS and MacBook out of the way, too - and maybe jammed a few more old magazines in.

@foone @NanoRaptor Or open a Mastodon client on the computer

Done properly, and dropped on YouTube with no context other than say, a title like "Old Home Movie", you might end up on one of those "This is Super Weird" channels...especially if you emailed it to them saying you "found" it.

In short, what a fantastic idea.

Could do it at CuriousMarc’s place, using all his old HP gear. Get some period-accurate Dazor desk lamps, an old watch, some 70s-appropriate office clothes.
