  • Out of curiosity I did some research, and the ones that seems to come closer to me aesthetically are ‘Retro Interface’ and ‘Analog Sci-Fi UI’, mixed with something like ‘Dark Aero’ (similar to PS3 UI).

    It’s probably not a single style, but a mixture of different ideas.

    Edit: Actually not so much Analog Sci-Fi, but definitely something like Retro/CRT Interface + Dark Aero.


  • I mean, if they were questioning their sexuality, then obviously they’re not sure. So your question was redundant and out of place to say the least.

    Also, as already said in this thread, people don’t generally challenge heterosexuals regarding their actual experiences. So challenging a bisexual/homosexual person about how they feel regarding their sexuality based on their actual experience with other partners does indeed feel like an invalidation and therefore disrespectful.

    And at last, on the internet, for many different reasons, it’s quite normal that a debate becomes hyperbolic. But dismissing the situation telling people they’re oversensitive and privileged because of your own lack of tact to deal with the situation doesn’t help your case either.



  • I believe it’s a mix. Both ‘nostalgia goggles’ and straight up facts.

    What I mean is that, when we were kids or teenagers we didn’t see things the same way our parents did. They were the ones struggling, and we were pretty much just playing around and complaining of mundane stuff. So it’s hard to tell how much ‘easier’ life was back then… we were just young.

    But at the same time I do completely agree that the advancement of technology and growth of USA giant corporations really fucked a lot of things up badly. While back in the day we couldn’t find answers or information to everything so easily, we lived a more ‘natural’ life, where everyone actually expected things to take a while to happen: you had to wake up, literally read the news if you wanted, take the car or bus to the job, and just then you started working, and while working you had to do some research and so on.

    Nowadays things either happen immediately or you’re tagged as lazy or something like it. You wake up with a lot of e-mails or message notifications on your smartphone, and people expect you to answer these demands ASAP. It’s not expected anymore that we do each thing in it’s own time anymore, and the volume of work is much bigger because you’re expected to solve problems much faster. This volume of demand and unrealistic expectations definitely generate stress and anxiety, which are huge health issues nowadays.

    And the fact that we now realize, thanks to the amount and speed of information we have today, how the industry leads are fucking everyone up without consequences doesn’t help in the slightest, since it leads to a feeling of being powerless and exploited.
