@lain @augustus I love Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Of course part of that is because it's a faithful adaptation of the book, but I wouldn't have been turned on to the book and to Hunter S Thompson if it wasn't for the striking direction. Gilliam adapted in a way that looked effortless a book that most would have considered impossible to adapt. Probably played to his greatest strength, his ability to illustrate madness.

The big snowstorm we had last winter was kind of cool, but now that I have a car (and no garage or dedicated parking) I'm not that keen on it anymore.

@sun It's not a luxury brand, it's more of a mass market specialty brand, comparable to Audio-Technica, Grado, etc... Their headphones are usually fairly priced for the quality. You won't usually be disappointed for the price, but also you probably won't find something that'll feel like a steal like say, chifi IEMs.

The latest Atari 50 DLC is a bit insane too. With a couple of exceptions, it's home ports of Namco games, not arcade. And the Atari port of Pac-Man is infamous.
The real DLC they need is Activision, and then maybe EA, dunno why they can't make a deal for this.

@lain Atari themselves released a software emulation "Atari 2600+" for a frankly completely insane price (130$ USD).

@lain > sets up an amazing mysterious universe
See, that's the problem. It was an amazing mysterious movie. It didn't need to be a universe. Not everything needs to be a universe, because eventually if you keep exploring a universe you're going to take away all the mystery from it. Thankfully, Aliens is still a good movie in its own right.
To me, the most tragic case of expanding on something until it's ruined is (also) from Ridley Scott, it's Blade Runner. Scott insisting that Deckard be a replicant in re-edits completely undermines the beautiful message of the movie (and of PKD's original story). Which is if Deckard is a biological human yet also an unfeeling callous prick, how is he more human than Roy?
Anyway, thank you for your attention to this matter.

Hacking is mostly asking boomers their passwords until they give it to you. Good, effective infosec is making it harder for boomers to tell other their passwords.
