Fundamentally I agree that work shouldn’t need to be a priority in this situation if the individual doesn’t want it to be, but this is like basically the optimal scenario. I wish more companies respected their employees’ time and strictly valued results over the appearance of business.
I can only think of one. The original movie of The Barnyard. It’s a kids movie, of course, and it was never going to be great, but kids were asking to leave that movie. That’s impressive.
Spider-Man: Miles Morales x BNA. Of all the superheroes this is probably one of the best crossovers, being a city-bound teenager with animal-themed powers grappling with the establishment.
I heard something similar; the studio didn’t think the movie would be popular if they used too many computer terms so they made them change the function to “battery”. Initially the reason Neo has powers is because his node happens to have admin access.
Unfortunately it’s burned into my memory one way or another, yet it still blends into the surrounding years.
One of my best friends moved out of state and we went to Colorado to send him off, I got back and my dad was sick (not COVID at least), he passed away exactly a week before my birthday. The next month I went on a trip to Vegas through work (I was encouraged to keep the plan despite the circumstances… Ultimately it was a positive experience overall).
A remarkable year personally in good ways and bad, but another stone in the stream of upheavals in recent years overall.
But was this a joke or merely observation? In the just the way you’re pointing out a problem in something that was not intended to be a problem, this may have been the same.
If we define tolerance as a social contract and not as a moral imperative, we leave room for it. Perhaps it’s true that a society only functions best with universal tolerance, but one can function in a society carrying intolerance. Either by hiding it or finding like minded individuals.
To summarize: the video opens on a series of games, each one progressively older, overlaid with a review of that game from the time it came out praising it as the best graphical fidelity of its time. Basically, they’re saying “Yes, graphics got better, but we always seem to conclude that they’re the best they will ever be”
A little bit of cultural linguistics going on really. Even though the texts are also calling OOP gay and queer, and doing so with the same amount of vitriol as with the f-slur, they aren’t recognized as emotionally charged in the same way. All the other cursing is not hate speech per se as it’s not directly targeting any immutable characteristics.
Replika is probably what you’re thinking of. It was nice when it started, sort of like a journaling app in a way but which could return insights. Then it started getting monetized, of course.
In 99 we only had crappy dialup and I didn’t really know how to browse the web, even if I sort of understood the basics (and I would have been six, admittedly). My dad would look up cheat codes at work for games I was playing and download the Web page onto a floppy drive to bring home to me. It was wild times.
That to say, the infrastructure was all there, but it’s hardly guaranteed as a kid that you’re browsing the web and know where to find all the best glitches.
