In my part of the U.S. there used to be a company called "Tyme" that operated automated teller machines around the region, and we referred to them as Tyme machines, which of course led to incredulous looks from visiting friends and family when we told them we were looking for a time machine.
I lived with a guy and his first computer was a Time. First time I'd had free access to the internet. I remember the printer never worked. Fast forward a couple of years and I ordered a Time. The day after I ordered, they were on Watchdog for selling crap computers. I called the next day to cancel my order. They must have had 100's of calls. I remember the bloke on the phone got really angry that I was cancelling. The good old days.
My understanding is that they were up to all sorts of shady business. Then the same people bought Tiny and ended up destroying both brands. The good old days!
@@ReesRambles For a long time after they shut down and maybe even now, if you left the motorway at the appropriate junction, there was a sign for "Time Technology Park". Which sounded awesome, of course: like a classified government project inadvertently advertised by Highways Agency pen-pushers.
Bad news if Watchdog aren't happy with you. Last thing you need is Anne Robinson making sarcastic comments on TV, and some "investigative journalist" harassing you on your driveway 😆
Perhaps get the type of frames that let you load up a bunch of posters stacked on top of each other and then switch the front-most poster around when you feel like it. Typically, these frames are sold as "childrens artwork frames" but maybe you don't need those specifically but just a few poster frames and you can cram in a few stacked posters.
Regular viewers will no doubt be pleased to note that the desk mat is the right way up this time.
Just when we got used to it, and was learning to like it 😅
🙃
Not in the beginning scene it wasn't, it's upside down from our point of view 🤪

Good to see, that after being busy away on holiday, now you've got much more TIME!

Oh, that "Choose your destiny" -poster is very, very Jack Kirby, niicce.
Some nice stuff. The joystick looks especially intriguing 🤩👍
I really liked 3 of the 4 new posters (not so much the dominantly red one). That was unexpected, but they are keeping with the style!
That joystick tho
Counting down to Ramble 69.
The NSFW episode!
Where's my ramble!
