Googling "Witch Planet Soccer" helped me finding all the active QC discussion forums, yay :D

Bob Hannent

This past week I have had two conversations about U-Matic which was better than S-VHS but worse than Beta. Many news companies used it

William Burns

*murmurs* EBCDIC

Kristian

Dreams of nonexistant media format is just the kind of fanfiction I would be qualified to write.

Neil Fairweather

"another"? Now I want to know how many times this has happened before.

GragSmash

Emily having dream-access to an alternate universe would explain more than one thing.

BobC

I'm not even going to bother to write a shipping comment.

ASMR Art

He is very talented. Looking forward to learning something new. <a href="http://patreon.com/ecopopartist">http://patreon.com/ecopopartist</a>

I bought a Sony minidisc system way back in journalism school, for its broadcast-quality performance, only to find Sony had made it nearly impossible to download or utilize the resulting files. This finally made me a NeverSony person. Grrr.

We need both shows. I wonder if Dana Simpson (Phoebe and her Unicorn Webcomic) was involved in Pretty Pretty Unicorn Detective somehow...

Gemma Hentsch

I secretly suspect that somewhere in a deep dark NSA lab someone has just screamed "HOW DID SHE KNOW ABOUT cyberdisks!"

does time flow in the opposite direction for Dale?

The first time my house was burglarized the thieves stole my VHS deck, turntable, CD changer, dual cassette deck, and DVD player. They left the Laserdisc player in the middle of the living room floor. I guess they knew....

R. Francis Smith

To this day, I own the Star Wars original trilogy, pre-any-special-anything, on laserdisc, boxed set. I haven't had a laserdisc player in years and years, but how can I let go of these? Answer: I can't, apparently. Sadly they have failed to become big ticket collector's items.

Bagge

Well... on the plus side, you seem to be in the position to write some KICKASS fanfics

A sheep

I swear, if at least one couple doesn't get together I'm gonna be peeved

Jeff Snider

I thought at first she was referring to Capacitance Electronic Discs. I had never heard of them until recently when I watched a video from a guy putting various media formats in an SEM. They very nearly fit her description, could pass for what she is holding (CEDs are much darker though) and were pretty obscure.

Will Weaver

Damn, I feel old.

Dan Orlowitz

Was that the superpowered zip disk?

Grant Swire

Oh she has that like haptic AI interface! She could like to hook her brain up to a TV and remember.

Daphne Pfister

I used to have a Jaz drive. Was cool for its time. 1gb of removable storage... But I was pretty much the only one I knew with one so the cartridge pretty much never left the drive.

Ben Russell-Gough

EVERYTHING about Emily is cute.

Ben Russell-Gough

Calling it now: PPUD is a reference to the 'Shadow Spade' books in the My Little Pony episode 'Rarity Investigates!'

Ben Russell-Gough

I actually empathise with Emily here. I once dreamed up an entire extra book for Anne McCaffery's 'Dragonriders of Pern' series and spent some time in the library that weekend trying to find it on the catalogue computer.

Fletcher Williams

I don't even care about sports ball and I'd watch "Witch Planet Soccer".

Mandy Hoskins

The first time I ever watched Monty Python was on laserdisc. Hell, I think my parents still have the discs and the player.

Minzoku Bokumetsu

Ahhhh cyberdiscs are the worst format, they open up and blast everyone, and explode for splash damage

Fart Captor

Baby Emily is so cute ❤

Sam Wright

I would like to see this

Bagge

So...Emily lives in multiple realities simultaneously, and just occasionally collapses the wave functions. Explains a few things.

JD

He has something in his hand that could be his glasses. Or Jeph made a mistake. He usually corrects errors like that by the time they go on the main site

JD

My Dad had Speed Racer on VHS as well.

Al Hunt

They're all a fad! 8-Track Master Race!!

Ian Wolfe

Never had on of those, but I think I still have one of Iomega's Zip drives in my obsolete tech bin. Only 16 years out of date!

Andrew

So um, do Dale’s glasses vanish at will, or does it only happen when he appears in panel 2.

Nobilis Reed (personal)

That's it. Someone has to write Pretty Pretty Unicorn Detective. I wonder if PPUD knows Unicountant? <a href="https://www.fishtankbooks.com/copy-of-gallery" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.fishtankbooks.com/copy-of-gallery</a>

Gary Walker

I would totally watch Witch Planet Soccer or Pretty Pretty Unicorn Detective.

Gary Walker

Well, obviously _now_ she knows it's called anime. She works with Dale.

Diptych

Emily... I feel ya. I really do. I've dreamed up many a piece of fiction and then been baffled at reality being different to what I remembered.
