In the midst of trying to glam up my desk setup, I came across the Divoom Ditoo Plus: a Bluetooth retro-styled speaker which brings pixel art and fun to live on your table. As usual, I got it when it was on sale during the Christmas Shopee sale last year. I finally had time time this year to open it up and use it. It also did help that my new IKEA table arrived, so it made it the perfect timing to do some desk re-organizing.
