History Brought to Life with Ai Magic Vol.1

First of all, it is astonishing what can be accomplished with AI.
At three minutes we see the future queen of England. She earned my respect by being a truck driver and auto mechanic during World War II.

How NOT to Land a Parachute
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-qj4h2Gl7YU
In the past, I wanted to try skydiving, but not anymore. I'm getting older and it is too risky.
I have heard that in parachute training they make you fall from increasing heights until you can fall and land from a height of 16 feet. That's a pretty big drop. According to the laws of physics, you would be traveling at 32 feet per second.

It is hard to see, but he turns the second box 90 degrees before removing the lid. If the boxes are not perfect cubes, he might be able to fit the first box in the second box. I don't think the lid would close all the way, but it doesn't have to. It creates the illusion that the smaller box contains the larger one.

Beyond The Mind's Eye (Complete Film)
Back in the early 1990s, a series of films called "Beyond the Mind's Eye" featured the latest in stunning computer graphics. Although it is dated today, I was impressed enough to buy the videotape. The sequence from 13:55 to 15:49 impressed the hell out of me.

Test Drive Off-Road 3 (GBC) - see the RUMBLE PAK!
17 hours ago
I am listed as the lead programmer on this game, which I only barely remember because it was 25 years ago and I worked on many different projects.
The sound seems annoying. The game seems dated to me. We jokingly referred to these games as bathtub races because they were 2D. The hardware was too primitive to do 3D.
In the video game industry at the time, the emphasis was on getting projects done as quickly as possible to make the Christmas market which really starts in the fall. It takes time to manufacture a game, so you had to finish during summer. If you didn't get a game done on time then it was a financial disaster.
So consequently, quality was a secondary consideration. We did the best we could, but if we had more time I'm sure that we could have made better games.

Whoa! You made this game and watched my video!? Super cool. Any chance you can DM on Twitter or email? I would really like to ask/interview you regarding GB development, highlighting the GBC Rumble Pak. I am really curious to learn more.

Why This Tiny Jellyfish Is Much Worse Than You Think
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/jw6bS-WL4F4 target="_blank"
If this creature is so bad, the world would be better off if we eliminated it.
There are many dangerous creatures, some of which kill a significant number of people. We can't eliminate all of them, but this particular jellyfish doesn't serve a purpose.
It has been advocated that we get rid of mosquitoes. I agree with this. They kill more people than any other animal. If they are killing people, then they are killing animals too.

Rare Golden Ship Galaga Glitch
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_58poXHxOg&t=877s
The golden ship reemerges when the game switches back to the second player.
The enemy ship switched to the wrong characters for that sprite but kept the same color palette. If we assume that ship type is a single byte value, then that byte was somehow overwritten with a bad value, hypothetically a zero or a one which could be the value for the player ship. Errors like this could be caused by a memory overflow where a value was written outside the bounds of a table or the limited stack memory was exceeded.
I learned that if Player 1 exceeds 999,999 points, it will not display the millions in the score. It is not clear if the player's score still counts as being over a million, or if it goes back to zero. However, the second player does not have this problem and his score can reach 8 digits.
