History seems to agree. Seventy-five percent of films from the silent era have been lost forever. Television shares a similar fate.
When a new medium is created, it seems we don't put much thought into preservation.

I bought an Ember mug because I thought it was silly. I ended up really liking the temperature control. I don't rush my coffee/tea. Now every sip is as hot as the first one.
The new Ember costs, I think, half again as much as the first iteration. It's a cute gimmick but I certainly wouldn't pay what they're charging now.
Shaders are lighter.
I'm in my 40s and dealt with a lot of pain and gum recession because I didn't develop good habits as a kid. Parents, teach your children to floss. Gentle, compassionate dentists are not as easy to find as you might think. Your kids will suffer later in life if you don't emphasize good dental care.
Is a pipe a hole? No. We call the cylinder a pipe. A straw is a cylindrical tube. Tubes, pipes, hoses, and straws are cylindrical and hollow.
It's unconventional to call the hollow space a hole, but as others have pointed out, a donut has one hole and if extruded, would continue to have one hole and resemble a cylinder.
As donut is not a hole. It has a hole, but it is not one. Squash a straw vertically and you have a plastic donut with one hole. The straw is the plastic part, not the hole.

Every time a sequel or a comic book movie lands on its face, someone rewrites an article about franchise/superhero fatigue. And that's been going on for over a decade.
People will show up to watch a good movie. Guardians 3 did really well. Spider-Man is the "same old stuff." This is all cherry picking examples. Movies don't do well when they're bad or the star is unappealing somehow.
Hollywood will stop making these movies when people stop paying to see them.
OLED. It's not much of a problem anymore.
Salt. I love a lot of foods, but you gotta have the right amount of salt on all of em
I've played a lot of the games on this thread and more that haven't been mentioned which deserve to be recognized, but for my experience The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth goes at the top.
There are others more nostalgic, others with more acclaim, but I always come back to Isaac. The RNG, art, humor, and item combos made that game stick to me like nothing else. It has just a little hit of inspirational game design that speaks to me.
I was just thinking about this today! I thought it was high time I dug out the old ones. I have to buy an adapter for the AV but these games were some of my favorites. Double Dash is still the best Mario Kart.
I wanted a handheld that could run the new retro-inspired titles that keep getting me hooked, because I didn't feel like I wanted to be chained to my desktop to play twin-stick shooters and pixel art platformers.
What keeps me hooked is its versatility and ease of use. I finally have something to take my Steam catalogue with me on trips or just sit on the couch, away from my PC.
