the comparison was to wikipedia, which is (was?) more accurate than most traditional encyclopedias despite its crowdsourced and open nature

ironically I believe I remember reading that Encarta was not particularly accurate (by the standards of encyclopedias, which is VERY HIGH). I'm not saying anything else in this conversation is more accurate at all, I'm just saying, lol.

I need to reread this book, I loved it as a kid and read it multiple times.

I didn't actually see the movie until later.

You're not wrong. The spacing/justification on those words is also ridiculous. How am I supposed to read this.

The worst part of this time of year is when you die on New Year's Eve right before the save point, and have to start your run from all the way back on January 1st.

I made a dvd logo screensaver simulator! It's almost the same, except it can't hit corners, and there's a built-in dead pixel. Because fuck you.
