I remember XKCD #1. I just did the math in my head and it’s been ~20 years. Fuck I’m old.

Not really. I was in college in the early to mid 90s. One of my fellow CS students had a NeXT cause he was loaded but the rest of us just used the computer labs.

Lionel Hutz: Mr. Simpson, this is the most blatant case of fraudulent advertising since my suit against the film, “The Never-Ending Story”

“Family”

No doubt - his focus has built some really cool stuff. He always struck me as a decent sort and his fight on behalf of the little guy when it comes to percentages paid to Steam, Apple, and his own Epic shows that too.

I went to highschool with him. We hung in the same crowd of nerds and geeks. Not sure if he’s changed as an adult, but back then he was extremely introverted. Hung out at a couple of parties in his parent’s basement (where he started his shareware empire) and he spent the whole time on his computer. Should he ever write his memoirs I suspect they would focus mostly on his business life and his anti-trust efforts against various companies.

Which is why I’m excited for the fediverse because it’s the closest thing to Usenet since Google decided to buy and kill it.

The guy on the left is so lazy he can’t even stand up straight to make his point. You got time to lean, you got time to suck cock buddy!

Paintball. So many times in the 90s I’ve fantasized about this while at the mall.

4k80 has issues. It’s been harder for them to track down good prints and get the color correction right: https://www.thestarwarstrilogy.com/project-4k80/

The Madoff Mistake, a classic.

French tarot is still played and is quite fun, especially when you play with five people and your partner is secret and known only to them until they reveal themselves with their play. It’s a bridge-like game where you try to win tricks and the arcana are the trump suit instead of picking one of the other four suits.

Well they better turn that feature on because last time I used MJ it happily accepted images of people who were banned in text prompts and gave me results.
