Here’s an extreme way to think about it. Would we rewrite Homer? Or Laozi? Or texts from 300 years ago? 100 years ago?
There is no line. Times change, just leave it there, in another 100 years you’ll repeat the whole process again, just enjoy the new stuff in the present and read the old stuff with an understanding that it’s different.
The only people making this an issue are those who want to sell you the old books but need to increase their market share or not get caught up in controversy
So, yesterday I broke my dominant arm. Yay! For the next 6 weeks, I have a cast, and at least for now, I can’t use my right hand or arm at all (I am typing this with my left hand)....
At some point in this millenium, it became ubiquitous in games to ask for a button press before switching to the main menu and it has become a pet peeve off mine....
Season 1s are great, setup, some payoff, a bit of lead into the overarching story. Then season 2 to X. The heroes win and then lose in the final episode, cliffhanger to next season. People get bored. Final season is announced and they wrap up the show.
Depending on the anime, but they usually have Arcs, which would be a named Show on its own. Then the second arc is the sequel. But usually the characters are pretty different at the end powerwise. I guess the equivalent is a character growth in a drama and some reversion to their original unimproved selves are common
After years of Mint I’ve decided to look for other options. Im considering doing it myself in a spreadsheet but before I go that route (not ideal) I thought I’d see if anyone had recommendations on good basic family-budget apps. Would be great if it could link with bank accounts but I’m open to anything at this point.
Went to a wedding and they had a poet dressed like a fox. You give him a word and he types out a poem on an old-timey typewriter. Of course, I chose ‘espresso’....
I just finished my Zoom65 V2 with kailh box jades and cheap Amazon caps. The sound is ok but I want something “deeper” and louder from the alpha keys. What do y’all suggest? Pulling out the foam in the bottom of the case and underside of the PCB definitely helped. I’ve done the tape mod and plan to do the holee mod when...
Given that metal doesn’t work well with connections. I’m looking at a Zoom ee V2 or waiting for a 65% with Bluetooth. Missed the GB for a recent one I think.

2023 might be the best year for sequels and worst for new IPs
It’s a really weird, happy and sad state of affairs....
Are American tv shows stuck in Act 2 for their entire runtime between season 1 and final season?
