    I was written a promissory note, I was sold a bill of goods

    It is obvious today that the internet has defaulted on this promissory note

    So I am very slowly watching Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 thanks to @simonwolf mentioning it.

    I am fascinated by the whole city design and cars and such. The view of the future in 90's is in many ways my dystopic coming out of Japan than a lot of the US stuff. I mean that makes sense. Japan when these are being made is hitting the Asian crisis and its economy is entering the lost decade. The big corps rule everything. Cities are very much split between haves and have nots. The visual designs show that a lot.

    Also the whole verticality of the cities. Which is something that very much exists in Tokyo but also a lot of the non-CCP cities. It is super fascinating seeing it through my adult eyes also as someone who has lived in Asia.

    Also the old style cell phones Its so cute.

    I just find it interesting. The little bits that squeak over from the past to the current. And how some of them do translate into something that seems prophetic at times.

    sacred counter, divine crush, sidewind and twister are all probably one point wonders. i think heavenly combo kinda sucks but they made it better and i think it's a pre-req for better stuff so i think you wind up getting it. i think i maxed dry-out but i would imagine not everyone thinks its worth

    Our generation were pioneers of search engine optimization

    I wonder if kids these days seek answers on the eighth page, trusting some off-brand yahoo answers site as much as they trust the holy wiki? How can we develop societal norms around a technology that iterates faster than we can reproduce?! MISTER TRUMP, PUT UP THIS INTERNET WALL

    I thought I was done with my paper for this weekend's conference but it turns out the women who more or less wrote the book on the topic I'm covering is attending, so I MAY need to go over it again and be sure I'm not going to embarrass myself

    I don't think I heard, what is this particular presentation of yours on?

    I'm trying to remember all the different search engines we used in the dark ages. I think Yahoo! was pretty much the only one I used before Google, unless you count whatever default search function Netscape had in its browser.

    In ... elementary? middle? school we were taught all the various popular search engines and teachers said we should browse the results of all of them... for reasons that are nebulous to me now but probably connected to the lack of SEO

    dogpile, altavista, askjeeves, yahoo

    Weirdly enough now my IP law prof recommends duckduckgo on top of google, as calcified as search engine hierarchy / monopoly has appeared to become?

    One of my high school classmates used something called SpiderBot (may not have been this exact name but it was close) but I never used it because it looked real sketchy.

    Isn't DuckDuckGo primarily recommended for privacy of information rather than actually providing optimal results?

    Great question! Similar stuff to what I always talk about, with more attention paid to a diversity of gazes influencing the contemporary media space

    I believe so, but I guess there's a nitty-gritty philosophical question in there about whether tailored/curated results are necessarily optimal results

    I'm sure top men at Google are independently working to figure out this obscure branch of the philosophy of science.

    Ryan Reynolds looks short in that picture.

    But I'm pretty sure he's as tall as me.

    6'-2" according to IMDB.

    the perfect height

    Of course, it's my height.

    I watched it back in high school. But the difference is I have a much more critical eye now.

    Also oh god is the animation horrible at times.
