  I think ‘that guy’ is phenomenally successful due to the weird and wildly superficial dating world tech has created.

  I’m quite fortunate as I met my wife before the apps had taken over. Other than being reasonably tall and having a pulse, I am far from being that handsome dude.

  But I did ok as I was brought up around women and have always used humour as a crutch since I was a kid, which I found women were responsive to when I grew up.

  I doubt I’d have survive the online dating world with my beer belly and average face.

  I watched this with my son last night. Quite enjoyed it. I find the cadences of the narrator’s voice oddly soothing, although ironically it sounds very like an AI voice.

  I wouldn’t use my Amiga, ST, ZX Spectrum or Mega drive on anything other than my CRT. They were designed for that pixel blur and playing on a modern TV is just not the same. I hadn’t realised the difference it made until i tried it and now I can never go back to using an LCD for any of my 80s/90s devices.

  However, beyond that somewhat niche use, CRTs are otherwise entirely pointless and basically a worse display experience in every concievable way when your source is anything produced after the advent of HDMI/Display Port.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ibuprofen⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have gout, which runs in my family (but I doubt the 90s pints helped). Therefore I was eating Ibuprofen like skittles for way too long to take the pain away. I finally relented and got on the meds after the diet and exercise didn’t fix it. Now I never take ibuprofen, and it makes me worry about how much damage I did to my organs and stomach lining while I was using it.
