I rented Superman 64 as a kid, never knowing it was a universally hated game. We had fun with the weird multiplayer mode where you fly around in weird pod things. I remember flying through the rings too. The whole game makes zero sense in hindsight.

Love watching his videos, they go way beyond your average music production youtuber content. I generally think generative AI is an awesome tool in itself, but that it's too ripe for the perversion of capitalistic greed. Like Jordan said in the video, it's pretty disgusting to ingest years worth of hard work and dedication from many artists and then use the resulting model to compete with those same artists. I optimistically predict that the current approach to AI will never do much better than the grey slop it currently shits out, though.

A few weeks ago I watched Ladyhawk on a 13" TV with a built in VHS player. I realized that my brain didn't care about the quality as soon as I started paying attention to the content. I still like my 1080p but there's definitely massively diminishing returns after that.

Nothing wrong with being an EMT who does all those things as hobbies, unless the capitalist pigs to whom you sell your hours demand more than their fair share...
I use Vscode with markdown preview, with a git repo. The only downside is that Windows incessantly wants to group instances of an application, so it's hard to keep my notes separate from my coding stuff.
I have a bike I put together with this mindset and it's pretty awesome. If any component dies I can replace it individually, even if it's not made by the same company. No reason an electric car couldn't have the same benefits except that the average consumer doesn't care about planning ahead
