I got sick of Windows, Facebook & Twitter, so I'm giving myself the gift of not using that bullshit anymore. Getting off the proprietary software train.
New Linux Mint user, vibes to Synthwave, poutine nut, and vinyl enthusiast. I love cassette futurism & cyberpunk aesthetics.
Do I know everything about 80's retro cult classics? Nope, but I can learn.
I won't post / boost more than once per day, so I won't spam your timeline.

To celebrate Total Recall turning 36 years old recently, look forward to some follow-up posts.
Total Recall offers a glimpse in the future where ESPN, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Pepsi, Philips, Coca-Cola, and Fujifilm seem to be just some of the larger corporations which advertise very prominently.

The protagonist "waking up" with amnesia, putting the pieces of a puzzle together while staying in a hotel filled with clues, a call from a strange contact, a dive bar, and an evil corporation. The only downside is that you can't re-watch it for the first time again.

Our first piece of information that Douglas Quaid isn't who he seems to be is the way he manages to kill would be assassins in cold-blooded efficiency.
The film kicks into high gear from here on out, living up to the of "Get ready for the ride of your life" tagline.

Total Recall turns 36 years old today. It premiered back in 1990.
Based off "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale" penned by Philip K. Dick, it earned $260+ million dollars.
It did get a 2012 remake, but I think it's safe to say the original is better received.
In honour of Total Recall, I'll be posting one or two follow-up videos.

The Atari 2600 My Play Watch has been on my wrist for a few weeks now.
I posted about it several months ago, but recently decided to take a photo of it.
You can play four classic Atari 2600 games: Centipede, Missile Command, Pong, and Super Breakout. The crown and button have been customized to look and feel like controller buttons, and the crown operates like a paddle controller.
It includes three interchangeable bands too!

To celebrate Alien turning 47 years old recently, I'll be posting one or two follow-up videos.
"Of The Marsh" on YouTube has complied a video of "just the tech" scenes which are showcased in Alien.
If you groove to this video, you loose... and you're gonna loose.

On this day 47 years ago in 1979, "Alien" premiered.
Alien has to be the best "Cassette Futurism" vibe ever put to film.
