Do we not call them webpages still?

They explicitly are talking about movies and nobody uses the term page when talking about different scenes anymore.

How does the internet fit in here? They’re not saying we as a society moved away from the concept of pages…

Intellivision was a game console that came with the game Burger Time. It had many amazing (for the time- 1980s) games, such as Snafu, Metroid, and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Minotaur.

I still have mine, but it no longer works. Big nostalgia, it looked like this:Very basic not even 3d walls graphics with a figure standing. Arbitrary numbers provide HP as there is no armour. Spells, bows, or attacks were more complex though.Very bright colours with no shading; Mintotaur was Purple

Edit: added image

    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
