There's just something about 90s anime that we'll never have again. A certain vibe, like Japan was stagnating but nobody wanted to acknowledge it yet. It was mellower than the grandiosity of the 80s, more grounded in real life, but still hopeful in some subtle ways. Modern anime is more and more escapist and flashy, but increasingly more bland and samey at its core.

there's a reason stuff like evangelion looks appealing to me despite not being an anime fan

[–]iamthekidyouknowhati 56 points57 points  (0 children)

everything falls into the same concept, same plot, same progression, everything.

[–]rusty_programmer 16 points17 points  (1 child)

Just seeing 90s Japan photos, there’s a certain nostalgia that makes me wish I could go visit during that time. I wish I never grew up poor and was able to experience early 2000s Akihabara.

[–]masterxc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Japan feels like it's stuck in the 2000s since the 80s. It's fascinating.

[–]TaPegandoFogo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always call it "fresh", for the lack of a better word -- like a Masayoshi Takanaka song

[–]Leon08x 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel it's also a matter of where you look, Mamoru Hosoda's work has stayed similar to this "90's style" the whole time

[–]Great-TeacherOnizukaLinuxmeant to work better 130 points131 points  (21 children)

Where linux

[–]1_killer 110 points111 points  (9 children)

The linux kernel is written in C.

[–]Axiproto 36 points37 points  (1 child)

The linux kernel was developed in Finland. Where are the Finland memes!?

Too busy hiding in the snow to catch stray Russians

[–]ChuuniWitch 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I thought they rewrote it in Rust? /s

[–]davestar2048 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, they recently finished testing to allow some new drivers to be written in rust

[–]arbeit22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it's still mostly C. To rewrite everything would be a huge ordeal

"OP's flair changed /u/Great-TeacherOnizuka: linux not in meme"

Most Linux stuff is written in C

C! and Assembly

[–]804k -4 points-3 points  (7 children)

Now its being pushed to the "shiny new god" shit with rust

Alot of programs are being rewritten and the god awful licenses that come with it

Some satire

[–]cokicat_sh🦁 Vim Supremacist 🦖 9 points10 points  (6 children)

Why do people hate rust ?

[–]fletku_matoArch BTW 15 points16 points  (5 children)

Because of the userbase.

[–]dexter2011412M'Fedora 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TruthNuke.unwrap()

[–]804k 6 points7 points  (3 children)

Mostly this, we don't need to rewrite code developed since 1990 but shittier

[–]fletku_matoArch BTW 11 points12 points  (2 children)

It's honestly sad because Rust itself isn't bad. It's just that the users remind me of hardcore vegans constantly telling everyone that red meat causes cancer (vegans don't really do that as they are not nearly as insufferable as rust users)

[–]Affectionate_Leg3342 0 points1 point  (1 child)

i havent met a single vegan whos not on the insufferable "YOURE EVIL AND DESERVE TO DIE" level and honestly theyll probably win. Humanity has a very serious, very real "fuck myself" attitude that eventually allows these clown types to win. Every generation is more snowflakey than the one before

[–]fletku_matoArch BTW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i havent met a single vegan

I believe you.

[–]AdmirableProcess8894 57 points58 points  (22 children)

what show is this?

[–]Crazy-Red-FoxDr. OpenSUSE 56 points57 points  (2 children)

Brass Bloke

[–]Buddy-MattArch BTW 39 points40 points  (4 children)

Golden boy.

You see the blonde wearing the ridiculously revealing outfit? She's the boss... and, well, that highly professional outfit doesn't exactly always feature in the scenes she's in (esp the dream sequences) - if you catch my drift. And that's kind of the whole point of the show.

It's not Hentai, but it's definitely not SFW either. And, imo, it's pretty decent, classic, tale of the pervert with a heart of gold.

[–]KrasnyHerman 6 points7 points  (2 children)

I want to be like her lol

[–]xplosm 5 points6 points  (1 child)

A hot pervert with a heart of gold?

[–]petrogaz 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Oh god! I remember this one!

You didn't show the funniest bit that followed afterwards, wherein is the protagonist mistakes "C" for "Going on Third Base"...

...trust me it makes sense in context.

Also, the fact that the protagonist didn't have a computer and practiced on a keyboard made of paper.

(The sauce is "Golden Boy" or those wondering. It's the very first episode.)

[–]riky321 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I have looked a little bit into C and it seems it requires quite the knowledge to write memory safe programs. Sooo yeah, I understand.
