It's the most popular OS for toilets. And toasters. And fridges. And those display boards above drinks dispensers in supermarkets.

Memory unlocked! Those blue zip drives were awesome! So much free space to put your rubbish on to. And the 'disks' had those funky grey hexagon pellets inside which mesmerised me!

I haven't used Windows nor Office for so long I have no idea what half of those icons are for. Word stopped being great around 2007 when the ribbon was introduced. Before then, it had an amazing UI, the right amount of features and allowed you to do your work. N? T? Turquoise P?

Now, wow. It blows my mind people put up with all that.

This caveat, glossed over in the article, is potentially a huge drawback. I've known people who have been floored after just one of the vaccines. Though I wonder if the body reacts differently to the combined than two singles.

paid for by... Moderna.

No need to take it out of context. They hear the word "vaccine", smirk at the dumb sheep and shout AUTISM!!!111

The trial, funded by Moderna

We did a trial which decided the governments around the world need to give us lots of money again and are releasing this information to drive up share price.

Found the AI slop to 'persuade' people. The entire account looks sus.

Samantha Morton was the original voice for the AI (which I'm guessing would have been an amazing improvement), but was replaced by Scarlett after everything was recorded. Some BS about appealing to the American audience, but I think it was more about a cash bung and BJ.

Upgrade is perhaps an interesting cyberpunk dystopia given current events.

If this were the 90s, this would be a print advert for the SEGA genesis console / games

This will have fantastic use for primary level as well - maybe another separate (but closely related) app. Do consider special educational needs, e.g.

  • emotion recognition, so pairs of happy faces, sad faces, angry faces etc to help the children detect emotions in the real world, simple animals and objects,
  • images of nouns that are called "CVC" words - that's consonant, vowel, consonant words, like cat, dog, boy, bat (as in cricket), etc
  • colours, so basic shapes in brightly different colours
  • letters, yep, just letters of the alphabet (and why stop at the english alphabet) - so a grid of vowels, and another of simple letters (not q,z,x etc)

Also, could you show the name of the object to the side of the grid? And also... add an optional timer to complete the level by, or just to time how long it takes them?

Good job!

Grog brain is better - https://grugbrain.dev/

And it's crap like this that gives junior programmers justification to output god-awful code because they don't want to better themselves.
