The good stuff always is, that pen is $25.92 after inflation.

This starter mechanical keyboard is only $30. Granted, it has clone blue switches and not a lot of features but it's better than a rubber dome.

There are even cheaper models if you don't mind losing the 10-key, like this one. which is only a few cents off that pen.

A lot of manufacturers are starting to make clone switches instead of using real cherries now. Even Razer which drives the price lower.

I think that the phone you depicted is the divine way of calling comfort without speakerphone.

Great feel all around. There's a reason I have this beautiful accessory:

This is featured in "Never Built New York", a book full of amazing projects that never came to fruition.

There's an entire book about it called "Art of Atari" by Tim Lapetino that was just recently released. Really good read. He's also releasing a poster book later this year.

That was O'Neill's original plan. I just picked up a new edition of his book, and in the forward he said it turned out not to have much advantage over other high circular orbits.

Lloyd Kahn (one of the creators of Domebook I and Domebook II) and a builder of many domes made this same revelation in 1973 and swore off domes forever with the publication of the book Shelter, where he advocates for simple usually rectangular homes using local materials. In his editorial/essay in the book he calls domes "smart but not wise", which pretty much sums up the issue.

His book Shelter is still in print and available on Amazon. Recommended and insightful reading: https://www.amazon.com/Shelter-Library-Building-Books/dp/0936070110

I loved these books as a kid. Picked-up the recent reprint a few years ago. Well worth it.

Incidentally, the short prequel he wrote in the late 80's isn't great, but it's also in there for completionists.

It's available online. Here it is on Bluray

However, I believe the trailer I linked is a new restoration. It might be the same one as the blu-ray but I think it's being re-released for some theatres in the UK right now.

If quality or a physical copy is not an issue, I'm sure there are some copies of the film somewhere online.
