I just rewatched WarGames last week. Other than some sappy harmonica music, it was still pretty decent. It does end very abruptly though - WPOR is like, can't win, people cheer, END.

It is very very much a movie about the journey and message v destination.
Honestly, a better climax would have been to have the protagonist "fight" WOPR in those scenarios, bringing it to a draw every time. (With the tension being if he ever fails to bring it to a draw, WOPR will draw the wrong conclusion and launch the missiles)

it doesn't even do that on most things after the 286. it doesn't slow a 386/486 down all that much, nowhere near enough to actually fix the problem it was meant to solve
yes it did, for my friend's 386 anyway. windows 3.1 wouldn't run at the full, blistering 25 MHz, so he had to push that to throttle it down to like 8 or 10 lol

my 20 Mhz was just fine

This led me to a flickr collection with a whole mess of pictures from a turn-of-the-century trade magazine for electric railcar companies. And it speaks to me.





Also US Graphite started after they bought a graphite mine in Mexico and they're still around today.

design brief - "protect from the vacuum of space but still show cleavage". i mean given jean-paul gaultier did the costume design, that's probably pretty restrained, like someone explained to him that pointy conical bras would be a puncture risk

ultimately perfectly realistic. one can with some effort imagine an idealized future where human spaceflight is commonplace, but a future without sexism is simply not plausible.
