TV prototype, c. 1961 (thelemmy.club)

Designed by John Denison-Hunt, for British electronics manufacturer Pye. This 1961 TV prototype was supposed to represent the TV of 1971, but the early 1970s was actually the beginning of the end for that particular TV brand, as Sony and Hitachi entered the British market with lower cost sets.

The future was yesterday.

Cool pics of cool retro-ish stuff. Moved here form !spacetech because more and more of my stuff wasn't space stuff.

If I know an image was made with AI, I'll label it as AI. Beyond that, I'm not gonna spend time investigating how every image was created. If it looks interesting, I post it. Whether it came from a camera, Photoshop, an artist, or AI isn't something I take too seriously.

If you know how an image was made, feel free to say so. If you don't know, don't worry about it.

Rule 1: No serial downvoting. This includes downvoting multiple posts just because they involve AI. Let’s keep Lemmy positive. Automod on duty.

Rule 2: Be civil. Play nice. And If you don't like it here, just find a different community.

Rule 3: AI is fine. If it looks cool, it is cool, babe! Label if ya want. Or not. I don't care.

Rule 4: Don't just call content “slop,” or use similar insults, unless you also contribute content yourself.

Rule 5: Weird that I have to make this an actual rule, but here we go: No advocating violence or murder.

If you don't like these rules, I suggest you create you own community with your own rules. Lemmy can always use more content!
