2·17 days agoEagerly awaiting part 2 while I try to recall the original storyline without rolling my eyes too hard.
Sure, but I have to imagine it was written with currently-alive kids in mind, not the not-yet-conceived. Now get off my lawn.
E.T. came out in 1982. The oldest millennials would have been 2 years old. It’s a Gen-X movie. The rest of the text holds up tho.

51·1 month agoOh wow. I just re-read Drexler’s Radical Abundance recently after coming across an ancient job application I sent in to his lab like 25 years ago (I didn’t get it). I sort of assumed by this point I wouldn’t see real progress in my lifetime.

27·2 months agoI always wondered how they made pants that do this. Normally if you stretch material across two points it flattens across the span. Is this material just so thin that it doesn’t? Do they put a seam or darts in to intentionally pull it into the crack?
