I usually love and prefer the goofy look of old SciFi, but seeing the brutalist, utilitarian aesthetics of the tech in the two newest Dune movies convinced me of that the new designs can be awesome when done right.

In suspiciously timed and totally unrelated other news
Yours is the first comment I see that thinks further than "phones bad, mkay". Thanks for that. I am a teacher myself, and I don't see the phones themselves being the problem, but the fact that the curriculum is totally outdated and irrelevant to this generation and the students know this. I have personally fought to get some 'technology weeks' (where I teach 3D modelling, animation and programming) and the phones stay in the students pockets for the entirety of those classes (without me telling them to!), because the subject is relevant, interesting and actually requires for them to think creatively instead of just memorising facts.
Punched cards making a comeback soon?
Abstract food porn. Interesting.
That is true if you look at mechanics. I was referring more to the actual gameplay loop and linearity of gameplay, which is very similar between the two.
I would argue that someone who completed Doom on nightmare is somewhat into the masochism of the soulslike experience
I teach technology in Denmark. I am so glad I convinced the school administrators to let me buy a bunch of refurbished Thinkpads and throw Linux on them, instead of being roped into either Google or Microsoft hell like so many other schools. The students seem to enjoy using the machines too (especially after they discovered Minetest).
I only subscribe to watch X-files and Always Sunny. Couldn't care less about Marvel, Star Wars or Disney stuff.
But that would bring down the value of the current homes that the lawmakers own! Can't have that happen....

I really hope someone is archiving their good old stuff, because it won't take long for discovery to delete everything to save a few bucks.
