First thing I saw was Superman beating up Homelander and the rest of The Boys villains while Saitama and Mob Psycho look on and Indian Superman dances in an ad in the background. This just reminds me of how much of my mental real estate is used up on pop culture, really.

I took a biology class that involved going over the organelles of the cell in 5th, 8th, and 12th grades as well as online for university (it seems to be treated like the most critical category of knowledge in all of biology). I think I still remember half of those dozen or so.

But give me a notepad and an hour and I can still list all 151 original pokemon.

There's a post on the front page right now (as there often is) about spaced repitition to improve memory. It's funny how hard we have to try to hold on to things when we're so well equipped for it naturally. The problem is we struggle to change which things are truly important to us, and it's how much we care about something that decides how long we'll hold onto it.

I didn't at first figure out that clicking on each character shows the reference. It feels like exploring someone else's daydreams. Bravo

One of the arcade games is playable...

The camera in the shower booth too.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

This is years old. It’s definitely not being animated by AI.

Is it years old? One place has a bunch of drawers and the drawers are labelled Dall-e, MidJourney, and Stable Diffusion. That seems pretty recent to me.

At least 2 years old -- there's a Changes dropdown, with the oldest entry being a Half Life 1 tentacle form March 2021 (that changes menu doesn't show everything either)

Made by a Russian who grew up in the USSR? Reasoning: https://floor796.com/data/misc/kvass.jpg https://floor796.com/data/misc/kin-dza-dza.mp4 Too obscure.

I've never been to Russia, and I love kin dza dza. It's up there with hausu.
