Not everyone’s horror. I’m hot for that.
Seriously, please list things in totality.
You’ve managed to get the affinity stuff working under wine? I can’t get publisher to work correctly. I just wish they would make a native version. I’m happy to give them money for it even.
It’s hard to make money from Adobe when they charge you £66 a month.
It was also a work of fiction.
Or propaganda.
A lot of 80s/90s TV was selling a lie because it was primarily written by the upper middle classes portraying the lives of the working class.
They had little idea how things actually worked.

He was the kid everyone copied from in the older version of this.
Fun fact, TinEye lists this image as first uploaded to the internet in 2015, nearly a whole decade ago.
It has been pretty unfunny for nearly ten full years now.
Is this showerthoughts or oldbumperstickers?
That makes a lot of sense.
As far as I’m aware, if your TV did start to provide feedback as you played you were in for a bad time.
I guess I’m thinking more holistically. Gaming is often seen still as a visual medium, but you’ll know that the physical set up was part of the fun/not fun.
I suspect you might remember man parties and lugging gear around just to play with friends. In theory it wasn’t exactly easy, but somehow still enjoyable for it.
And I forgot the smell and the heat too. That warm ozone thing a lot of them had going on.
Yeah, when you turned them on they frequently had push buttons with satisfying resistance and a click.
As an object they had their own tactility, often solid and heavy (as opposed to the sort of articulated physicality of most modern monitors). You could often feel the static electricity across the glass.
They even had their own sounds. The hum of warming up, the whine and clunk of being turned off.
When we talk about nostalgia it’s often the sensations adjacent to the activity that we are talking about.
So like okay, so OK, so OK, like so, OK, so Okay, like Ok, so???
People will knock nostalgia … They see it as a sort of softness, a yearning for the past…
But what they miss is the way that it can create intergenerational connections.
That’s a really lovely thing to hear about your relationship with your dad and Ms Pac-Man.
Wait, that sounds libellous.
I think people who played those games on CRTs originally remember the feel of the visuals. It is a rather nostalgic thing.
The filters aren’t the same, but they’re not a bad approximation. Mist of those games were not meant to be played on modern hardware and look worse for it too.
Then there will be a ton of folk who just do it because they see other people do it. That’s fine too, especially if they are enjoying themselves.
That’s the point. If the filter makes you feel happier, go for it. It’s an aesthetic choice.
Cranberries evolved so they wouldn’t be eaten.
Most fruits want to be eaten so that birds disperse the seeds.
Their preferred method of dispersal was dropping into flowing water, so that they could find somewhere nice to grow near water.
The astringent taste was to stop birds eating them. They became buoyant in water to help them float down stream.
Humans appeared and loved that dry flavour.
Became one of the most eaten fruits on the planet.
Humans even harvest them by flooding and using their own buoyancy against them.
They will get their revenge.
And now the workers cannot afford bread.
Next move?
