The reason I remember this is that it inspired me to spend ages implementing Gouraud shading in my own graphics library (written in assembly language), only to discover that flat polygons look better most of the time.
AFAIK it's the only major implementation of this technique. Most other big sites that provided an RSS feed didn't bother, and most of those RSS feeds are dead now. The BBC one has hardly changed since those days and it still works really well as a dual-delivery system.
Also, is passthrough good enough for things like typing, so you don't get an uncanny valley sense of the keys being just slightly off visually compared to your proprioception & touch?
The article mentions differences between brands, but IDK if there's a specific correlation with quality other than that fake olive oils certainly won't turn red/pink.
My good EV olive oil in a glass bottle goes a sort of pinkish colour. With the natural colour of the oil & the way the glass reflects/refracts light, it makes it look like copper.
I don't get the same effect with cheapo refined olive oil in a plastic bottle. I get a bit of fluorescence - the normal violet colour and much less than say a white piece of paper - but all or most of that is just from the container.
This makes it hard to accidentally forget about a rules that just just put in temporarily. Real colours will always match some design, which will have a carefully-chosen hexcode.
In the game there is a computer, which if you interact with it, allows you to play the entire original Maniac Mansion.
It might get a bit annoying when you want to go to sleep though.
I'm not sure it has anything to do with burning fat stores though, because I don't get the same feeling after say, a 3-day water fast. At that point I'm definitely hungry, but don't have the same insatiable food craving.
In fact, when I was experimenting with extended fasting, the only reason I stopped at 3 days is because I was lifting lighter weights every day and hit a point where my strength was physically depleted. I could only do about 3 reps instead of finding 15+ easy. Hunger wasn't really a problem after the first day of getting used to it.
The next year they decided it was premium after all, and wanted to charge £492,000 for renewal. I still have a screenshot of that, although needless to say I don't own the domain anymore.
