I love the cursors! It’s 1992s idea of cyberpunk. It’s so chaotic and distracting. It’s like trying to read a newspaper on a windy day. Maybe that’s the point?

I love the cursors! It’s 1992s idea of cyberpunk. It’s so chaotic and distracting. It’s like trying to read a newspaper on a windy day. Maybe that’s the point? Don’t know but it has real nostalgic geocities vibes.

- anfragment 3y agoDefinitely feels like it. I frequently see people here complaining about how everything has the same boring, homogenous corporate look now, but anything interesting and original gets critiqued for lacking "visual clarity". These might be two different camps, sure, but it's sometimes sad to see the quality of discussion here.

- alisonatwork 3y agoI had the same experience first time I saw 弹幕 (dàn mù) aka "bullet screen" on Chinese video websites like Bilibili. If you haven't seen it before, it's like user-added subtitles that go flying across the screen while the video is playing, and in parts of the video where more users commented, more subtitles appear. In the most climactic scenes the screen gets so filled up with text that you can't see the video any more, and somehow that makes the scene even more epic. The future is now, chummer!
