Maybe this explains why I tear up whenever I watch these videos.

I know this is meant as a humorous post but I feel like this says quite a lot about design, aesthetic and functionality. He wrote that signature so many times and became more efficient with it each time, but it still retains its form when it's basically just an elongated 4.[/QUOTE]
So anyone can forge his signature then

Kinda useless because he's dead

[QUOTE]Probably my favorite photograph of all time on the merit that it's awesome and it will never be recreated again. Aérospatiale/BAC Concorde F-WTSS, the first prototype and first Concorde to fly, caught the exact moment it clips past the corona of an annular eclipse of the sun.
I couldn't find this image online anywhere so I scanned my own copy for global enjoyment. Photo credit: Arthur Gibson.[/QUOTE]

I kind of like the UK and USA flags

They look like something from a dystopian alternate reality/future. I guess that's what happens when they are based off of the NK design.
I'd welcome a return to the circle of stars.
UK, China, SK and USA look pretty damn good.

Really, Blue Black and White is best shit possible.

Speaking of which, I really like the flag for the Japanese Pacific States

While most of them are awesome, Nepal just isn't right without the distinctive shape.

The thought of having my invisible ancestors floating around is a bit disturbing. I don't need grandpa seeing that shit.

Bow ties can be adorable when used right.

Because they invented the future in the past.
[QUOTE=Trilby Harlow;51203418]How does the past look more futuristic than the present[/QUOTE]
Probably because the past is much more novel than the present. We are acclimated to things that a couple decades ago were considered very futuristic. Really you just need a sense of perspective to realize it.

Yeah, i remember how i first saw a cell phone with a color display, and how displays with like 16k colors were considered really cool. Feels like it was just yesterday.

I love the whole 'world of tomorrow' retro futuristic ideas that the 60s have
Partially why I love fallout so much, its a different take on what we imagined the future to be
Curious as to what our current views of the future are.
I mean the only thing that comes to mind is Black Mirror + Deus Ex.
