Is no one going to post the Technology Connections video???
Okay, then

Pixel phones can monitor phone calls for scam conversations (it runs locally on the phone, so audio doesn’t get saved or uploaded).
Theme parks do use image recognition to flag obscene things in ride photos.
I recently went to the bank to get a letter on their headed notepaper to act as proof of account ownership. They just printed it out on blank paper from a laser printer.
Grep was originally written to help identify the authors of the Federalist Papers.
There are much more powerful tools to automate that kind of pattern matching now, of course.
In recent times I’ve played Baby Steps, Cocoon, Inside, Slay The Princess, Thank Goodness You’re Here, Hyperbolica, Unpacking… Going further back, Unfinished Swan, Untitled Goose Game
I don’t think that originality has gone. Maybe it’s just easier to churn out shovelware, but there are still new ideas appearing.

That’s a great question!
Wait, does “this comment” refer to your comment, or the one that you’re replying to?
Just having driveway alarms can be useful. Battery motion sensors trigger a chime on the base unit. Enough to give you an alert that something needs to be checked.
Ghost In The Shell (2017) with the Ki Theory soundtrack.
I love slow remixes of 80s music.
Why don’t they let the people who make the trailers make the movies!
Oh, I should add that the plug in the 2nd pic is what keyboard connectors were back then (PS/2 connector).
This is dated 2017, so must have been through a few phone-to-phone days transfers to be on my current one.
But in my main store of files that’s synced across machines, I have this from 1999
Memes were still finding their feet back then.
I’ve used bookshop.org which sells ebooks and has a reader, but you can nominate a local bookstore to get part of the profit.
My point was really how there was little to no verification on SMTP servers back then and that you could send mail with a simple terminal program, or, more practically, a script.
Not hacking, but using knowledge of the insecurity of SMTP servers of the time, to allow spoofing easy spoofing.
Not so easy to find SMTP servers to do that with now.
Not really hacking, but in the 90s you could usually just connect to a mail server and it would believe what you told it.
If you were careful you could just type an email directly: MAIL FROM, RCPT TO, etc.
I would write scripts at work to send spoof emails sometimes, you could put anything as the FROM address, like “info @ catfacts” or whatever.
Another “not really hacking” example is that when some companies first got an Internet connection, they would just allocate public IP addresses to everyone, no gateway or firewall. So you could browse any non-passworded smb shares just knowing the IP.
I heard of it from this video
It’s just one of several tells. Although you can’t really rely on anything. Just like “badly-drawn hands” is less likely to show up now.
Once I heard this, I had to learn how to type them, btw!
