If I'm honest, it really feels like a LOT of media got suddenly worse some time in the 2010s in general. TV, movies, big budget games - I know enshittification is a thing in every industry, but it feels like there was a major quality drop in such a short period of time.

There are obviously some exceptions, but it's like a switch was flipped, and my interest was gone. GoT was one that carried on for a while, but then it succumbed to it too.

Ha, this is exactly the one I had in mind with my comment. I've re-watched it many times.

Me, trying not to talk about star trek in every unrelated thread:

Same. I really should watch it.

It was really, really good for so long. I've been tempted to rewatch it. Lots of series have terrible endings and are still enjoyable.

It's amazing how strong the fandom for it still is. I realized that if I make it to 2066, I'll have a favorite show that is 100 years old.

What did you play this on? It looks like Atari.

I'm not a developer, so maybe I'm underestimating things, but these tools conceptually don't seem like a hard thing to make.

Just a whitelist/blacklist of apps and similar for internet usage.

That's insane! How could any teachers think that's acceptable?

It still doesn't rule it out admittedly, but yeah, I think it's just a weird angle either way. I did some searching for "professor X finds someone in overturned car", and "James McAvoy wheelchair behind the scenes" to try to find the shot, but I haven't had any luck.

edit: the smile does seem a bit perfect. It could even be a normal shot where someone just edited the expression. AI investigating is starting to feel like a losing battle.

That looks like his pinky to me. His left thumb is right here.
