Fleetwood Mac and cheese.

Yeah, OK. I’m in.

The big brain move was to ask them first, thereby proving you wanted to use their IP.

If he had just faked it anyway without asking he might have got away with it.

Genius strategist.

I do find it interesting that folk think Renaissance art is realistic.

I’m being a little glib, but the truth is that we are still looking at hyper-idealised bodies.

The main difference,I suspect, is the use of perspective rather than drawing on a flat plane. In a way it took a leap of imagination to make things look more “realistic” whilst sculpture was merely (again, said with a certain smirk) just mimicking what the artist could see and feel in the real world.

That is to say that sculpture is reproduction whilst drawing is representation, and with representation you need to be able to take some pretty big leaps for both the artist and the viewer to work these things out.

Yeah? Cool.

I don’t think that’s true. There’s a great video here that highlights the fact that even a lot of modern slang is far older than you think.

Mate, the thing about gen x is that they dont care. This is boomer energy being projected.

Which is cool, I guess, whatever.

Pretty sure we had Halloween before the US even existed.

Admittedly we had to carve turnips.

Some still do.

It replaces workers with robots so it would probably save money too.

And now the workers cannot afford bread.

Next move?

I’m interested to hear what everyone uses as an alternative.

Thank you.

You missed the meeting huh?

We all agreed that one doesn’t exist. For reasons.

What were we talking about, I forget?

The second it becomes the standard is the second google looks for ways of nerfing it.

Dead drops and one time pads.

Set up a numbers station if you can afford it.

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.

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.
