- taeric 8y agoOK, yeah. I know what static is. It isn't like HBO invented that. So, back to the original point. I suspect that it is a short matter of time before nobody really knows what that is anymore. My kids have certainly never seen it. And it is no longer what a television on a "dead" channel shows.
- notheruser 8y agoMy point was only that if your kids watch HBO they do know what the image in Neuromancer looks like, even if they don't realize what the HBO logo was based on.
- taeric 8y agoBut that fails. The line is that it looks like a television tuned to a dead channel. Not that it looks like a television during the HBO logo. Could they research it and find the answer? Yes. But that is different from just knowing it. This makes it unlike the stage imagery, which is still accurate.
