They were true pioneers sent to their deaths just to see if a practical effects FF movie with no budget could even exist. The Laikas of the MCU.

I mean, who could imagine that Trump would give a shitty juvenile sharpie outline drawing with his signature below it as a present? Totally unbelievable. He’d charge 30K for it.

Supernintendo Hiroshi! I was just…sketching Mario sprites...from a birds-eye view! Isometric exercises! Care to join me?
Why is there a turnip coming out of his hand, Miyamoto?
Um, ohh! That isn’t a turnip, it’s a 1up! A steamed 1up from all mushrooms Mario’s eating, Mmmm! Steamed mushrooms!

My grandmother was one of 17 kids, and grew up in depression era Quebec. That is a childhood that I can’t even comprehend. Probably because it was all in French.

As for switching from Intel being a good thing… Absolutely. Intel Macs were such a poor value for the power they delivered at the end and had serious overheating/batt efficiency issues. I’ve never seen a performance jump year over year like the M1 line. They would have been crazy to stick with Intel

Does it seem to you that I’m arguing semantics over “lost”? That really wasn’t my intent. Just pretend that I said “dropped” like you did because that’s how I meant it. Like, they had it as a feature, then they didn’t. That’s what I meant.

Microsoft seems to have determined that supporting virtualization through Parallels is good enough, and don't want to develop ARM Windows to support booting on Apple Silicon. It's not really Apple's call to make.

You can't run x86 Windows on ARM. It's not a lost feature, it just doesn't work. Bootcamp only worked on Intel Macs because they were using the same Intel processors Windows already supported. Apple Silicon is a customized ARM architecture that ARM Windows doesn't support. That's why MS has to do it

Sorry for going on a bit like an advertisement, but I really think Affinity is criminally overlooked as the complete Adobe replacement it is, especially for people coming from CS6.

They also have fully featured versions available on iOS. The whole suite with Mac/PC/iOS versions is only $83 for Black Friday, which is kinda nuts. That paired with a Mac will be a huge upgrade. If you can do desktop, the base M4 mini is the best value in tech right now, but the Air is good too.

Their suite is a PS/Illustrator/inDesign replacement. Compared to CS6, it can do basically everything and then some including full CMYK mode support. Affinity Photo's UI is close enough to Photoshop's that you won't feel lost, and it also supports psd files, abr brushes, and has custom UI/shortcuts

This extends beyond just comics though. Sci-fi, fantasy, anime… pretty much everything nerds were in to has become much more mainstream. The idea of looking down on someone because of their niche interest was waaay more prevalent in the 80’s and 90’s.

Culturally, it’s the mainstreaming of the IPs from Hollywood. When I was young, being into comics was a pretty niche thing. Most people knew about Superman, Batman, Spider-man, and maybe Captain America. Now people who have never read a comic can name all the members of the Guardians of the Galaxy.
