There was a meme going around a while back of a vintage Radio Shack(?) ad showing desk overflowing with different equipment from a radio to a fax machine, and the meme was now we do this all on our phone.*

I want to go back to that. Single-purpose, purpose-built devices that aren't trying to distract me or turn me into a revenue stream.

*Anyone have that? Search fails me.

@RealGene That's exactly the kind of thing but now how I'm remembering the ad at all?

Maybe I have a Mandela Effect going on.

@troublewithwords @RealGene It wasn't an ad. It was a magazine article lead photo or perhaps cover image for the article. Possibly an online article.
