Did you know? E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (Atari 2600) was so poorly received that Atari buried millions of unsold copies in a New Mexico landfill, an urban legend that was eventually proven true by an excavation.

Guess which original Atari 2600 game sold more copies than any other. If your mind went to Pitfall! (1982, by David Crane) then you'd have been correct. For those arguing "but, but... Pac Man?" - that was originally an arcade game and later ported to the Atari 2600. Pitfall! topped the billboard charts for a whopping 64 consecutive weeks, that's well over a whole year. And to give you an idea how popular the game was at its peak: Try to picture 14,000 fan letters (per week!), many with hand-drawn maps of the jungle. Activision, the publisher, had to hire extra staff just to handle the mail. If that's not an indicator of pop culture impact, I don't know what is. By the way, Pitfall was 4 kilobytes big... that's a tiny fraction of any static desktop icon on your PC these days. David Crane got the absolute maximum (and a bit beyond) out of the good old Atari 2600.

House of Parliament, Romania 🇷🇴🏛️ The latest in a never-ending list of architectural monstrosities with a laughably fake origin story, and "construction" photos that depict an EXCAVATION of a buried building that was already there... Are you starting to ask questions yet?

Really hard to overstate how impressive it is that this person not only composed an original song, they did it on an Atari chip that only provides 2 channels and was never intended for music, and is largely "out of tune" with a standard chromatic scale.

Did you know HARRISON FORD had a deleted cameo in Steven Spielberg's E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL (1982) playing Elliott's school principal. Ford’s face was obscured showing only his back & hands. Spielberg cut the scene concerned Ford's fame would distract from the childlike perspective.

In 1983, the Hubot robot was a home computer and entertainment bot. It had a voice synth, built-in Atari 2600, avoided obstacles, and had an AM/FM stereo. The price was $3,495, ~80 units exist. Specs: Zilog Z80A CPU, 64K RAM, CP/M OS, and a floppy disk drive. ~50kg, chonky boi!

There’s an audio recording of Steven Spielberg describing a White House screening of E.T. After the movie, Reagan allegedly said: “A lot of you in this room know that everything on that screen… is true.” If that’s real… that’s insane. Kevin Knuth episode dropping in 10 mins.
