I agree that it's unlikely that we'll ever get a better adaptation. But to say that PJ's adaptions were perfect is a bit insulting to the books. They weren't great adaptions. Good movies on their own, but PJ was very opinionated and they weren't super faithful.

It is, from the Top Gear Bolivia Special

It's kinda hilarious to me that you think people would possibly revolt anymore. Noble goal, never gonna happen.

Gates will keep living the long, rich life of luxury he's lived and corps will keep getting more powerful.

People are just too apathetic, and governments are too powerful.

If you're being serious, you should probably know they're on sale right now and quite cheap.

New Zealand isn't Australia. Yet.

That's the last thing we need... An entmoot.

You may be confused with "That time I got reincarnated as a slime". "I've been killing slimes for 300 years and accidentally maxed out my level" is fairly different

Barely anything was left in the library by the time it burned down. It's quite a myth that all that much was lost at all. By the time of its destruction, most of its books and knowledge has been moved elsewhere due to decades of reduced funding and support.

Furthermore, the burning did not destroy the entire library. It was a gradual process over a long period of time. What destroyed far more of the books is a lack of care to copy them. Paper and papyrus don't last that long, so the only way to permanently maintain them was by copying them out again. Which is a lot of work.

Graphene is cool but such a process. Stock pixel is great on its own.
