What is something you wanted as a kid and bought now that you're an adult with disposable income?
  • That's a great hobby! I got turntables when I was 17 and it really depended my connection to music. May I recommend the book "Last Night a DJ Saved My Life" by Bill Brewster. It's a great read on the history of DJing!

    Do you follow any youtubers that talk about film, tv, animation or vfx?
  • All the ones mentioned already are great! I also like Filmmaker IQ:

    And I'm going to leave a link to a story breakdown of Terminator 2 that is my bible. Absolutely worth a watch if you're into film analysis:

    John Fetterman Invokes Homer Simpson To Respond To Latest Round Of Conspiracy Theories
  • I think it was even earlier... 9/11 really broke the safety of America (and even the "western" world) and pushed so many people down the conspiracy rabbit hole. Social media amplified this fear and brought them together giving them power.

    Eminem tells Republican Vivek Ramaswamy to stop rapping his songs
  • While technically cover songs are copyright infringement, anyone can cover a song as long as they obtain a mechanical license and follow some guidelines.

    I think copyright should be abolished and replaced by a tax that pays artists, writers, journalists, and musicians. This will eliminate the middleman copyright legal industry and allow for far more creativity.

    Video Games Are Disappearing...
  • I agree with everything you've said about emulation, it's never been better! My worry about the current push to always online games is their inability to be properly archived. P.T. is an example of a game locked to a console that never got a physical release. Also games are now constantly patched so there is never a finished or definitive version of them.
