Zachariah , to ObscureMedia in BASIC Fun With Computer Games (1984 book on coding text adventures)

Wild! I have this book.

Ever try any of the code out?

@Zachariah@lemmy.world avatar

I remember doing one or two of the most basic ones but not doing any of the others. At the time it was difficult to go up to previous lines you’d written to make changes.

Here’s my copy:

Edit: Oh, I just noticed it’s a different version. I wonder if there was a series, or if it was revised and renamed.

Mine is copyright 1982 and the one posted is 1984.

Edit 2: A link to the one I have:

You have of course clicked the link and understood that this is the Complaint, filed by lawyers representing Steve Texeira, and you understand I’m sure, that there is a good chance this is not how it went down.

I love you all. And trust you all.

Keineanung ,

These are the kinds of comments that makes so happy, that I switched to Lemmy. Thx.

Caught me on a good day

Here's typical Mozilla not being the all mighty savior people think of them.

lemann , to Technology in Mozilla hit with lawsuit from former Chief Product Officer

Got to really wonder what's going on at Mozilla. Between the previous CEO milking it for cash, the purchase of an ad company, and now this?

lurch ,

the rich people trying to milk it.

people often think shareholders are doing this, but as you can see here: it's top executives, as mozilla stock is not available.

rtxn ,

Evil is evil, Stregobor. Mozilla is still a company that does company things. The current CEO has worked for AirBNB, Ebay, and Paypal, so not an inspiring history there either.

Heterocephalus Mod , to European Graphic Novels+ in Miyazaki & Moebius Catalogue D'exposition (2004-2005)(with link)

Thank you!

Varyk OP ,

For sure, thanks for posting it originally.

I never knew about their connection. That is absolutely fascinating, two of my favorite artists.

Heterocephalus Mod ,

thanks for posting it originally.

I have no clue what happened, probably I managed to accidentally change/delete the link while editing the post.

That is absolutely fascinating, two of my favorite artists.

Then I guess you are going to enjoy watching this: A talk by Mr. Hayao Miyazaki and Mr.Moebius

Varyk OP ,

Hoooo yes, thanks. Click.

CptEnder ,

Wow this is genuinely blowing my mind haha I love this so much!

@JohnnyEnzyme@lemm.ee avatar

Wow. Awesome, and nice find!
So, due to the peculiarities of modding here, I'll leave it to @Heterocephalus to take this link and add it to the other post.

When that's done, this post can then be retired. One-stop shopping and all that.

Hope that's understandable, and thanks for the great find, Varyk. <3

Varyk OP ,

Sure.

I added the link to the original post also, but I think most people have already seen that post and aren't going back to check the comments for a link.

JohnnyEnzyme Mod ,
@JohnnyEnzyme@lemm.ee avatar

Good point. Altho, note: tagging people can work for anyone who asked for the source.

Like this:
@Potatisen

In any case, I'll let Nacktmull handle it as he sees fit. Salut!

Varyk OP ,

Oh, that tagging thing helps, I didn't know about that. Thanks, have a good one!

Potatisen ,

<3

Heterocephalus Mod ,

I deleted my post, have no clue what changed the link, it even looks the same in both posts, anyway ....

sbv , to Men's Liberation in Patriarchy According to The Barbie Movie

A summary of the video in the description might get more engagement.

BeefPiano OP ,

It’s kind of hard to summarize, it really is “Patriarchy 101” (or maybe 102) with the Barbie movie as a narrative base. It was good to hear things I’ve intuited explicitly stated

iiGxC , to Men's Liberation in Patriarchy According to The Barbie Movie

Idk why all the downvotes, maybe people are assuming stuff based on the ben shapiro thumbnail? I haven't seen the video, just guessing

small_crow ,
@small_crow@lemmy.ca avatar

It is an unfortunate thumbnail.

FunderPants ,

Yes, very. Espcially considering the video is by Johnathon McIntosh, who is abaoltuly not Ben Shapiro.

BeefPiano OP , to Men's Liberation in Patriarchy According to The Barbie Movie

I wish more men could understand how the patriarchy hurts men, I like how this puts it into words.

The Maxx, aeon Flux, speed racer, etc good times with the mtv late night 90s animation block. Probably influenced the creation of adult swim.

Zoomboingding , to Nostalgia in The Maxx - 30 years later
@Zoomboingding@lemmy.world avatar

Wild, I've never even heard of this. So it looks like the comic came after The Watchmen, so maybe Maxx was somewhat inspired by Rorschach, but the movie's character may very well have been inspired by the voiceover of Maxx.

Also, the art in this is really reminding me of the Goblins comic. I bet this was an inspiration!

Who doesn't wish their middle fingers were hardened spikes?

This show was a trip. So was Aeon Flux and The Head.

Fuck, 1994 is thirty years ago.

That means that when it was 1994, thirty years ago was 1964. I'm further from Nirvana than Nirvana was from the Beatles.

half_built_pyramids , to Nostalgia in The Maxx - 30 years later

So painfully 90s, love it

FancyPantsFIRE , to Nostalgia in The Maxx - 30 years later
@FancyPantsFIRE@lemm.ee avatar

For those not aware it was a comic first, which if I recall correctly the cartoon only covers the first half of or so.

DeadWorld ,
@DeadWorld@lemm.ee avatar

Less than a half, probobly 1/3 -1/4 of the series. It just gets crazier. What a great series

I had a few issues as a small child and enjoyed it.

FancyPantsFIRE ,
@FancyPantsFIRE@lemm.ee avatar

I enjoyed the show as a kid and only found out about the comic later as an adult. It’s probably why the show sticks with me and I don’t remember much about the comic.
