I personally really enjoy how David and the skeletons either can't out won't elaborate on the parts of their whole thing that the people are confused about. There's just something funny to me about how it doesn't seem like they're intentionally being obtuse. They'll gladly answer the vague question of "and the skeletons are...?" with the equally vague "part of it!" with a big smile, as though it was a perfectly fine and helpful answer.

To give the original question answer slightly more (probably unfounded) credit, there are a lot of people out there who know the basics of what inflation is, but also seem to have a fundamental assumption that in a "normal" economy, wages will also increase at the same pace as inflation, resulting in a net zero effect on a person's buying power overall. Even though, yes, things are always getting a little more expensive in absolute terms, they don't seem more expensive. So the answer to the question someone with those assumptions might have actually been trying to ask is that even if inflation returns to a "normal" rate, wages have remained stagnant for a long time and aren't keeping pace with inflation like they used to, so now things actually are more expensive in a relative sense.
Oh, hello
That doesn't make it any less true.
What I got from the video was just how inspired by the Kansai region Gold and Silver were. It's not just the map layout and the cities being analogues to real cities; it's also things like certain Pokemon being inspired by the real animals of the region and only showing up in the Pokemon world in the same places they'd be found in Japan, or that the Ruins of Alph are directly inspired by real ruins in Japan that contained ancient mysterious murals depicting mythological creatures including a sun bird that is straight up Ho-oh. He's talks a lot about the ruins and myths and how the Unown fit into it all, and about how the earlier games were more artistic and full of love for Japan and nature and stuff and not just geared towards selling games or catering to the competitive battling crowd. That last part is maybe more my interpretation of what he was saying.
I just spotted my first in person yesterday and I agree completely. My kid said "It's shiny" and I said "Yeah, because the alternative to that is to be covered in rust".
Not OP, but from what I've read, overall length is more important than complexity (special characters and stuff) when it comes to someone trying to crack it. So this one isn't too bad in that regard. But being able to remember a password is also important unless you're always going to be able to use a password manager to enter it for you. So in that respect it's not great.
Yeah, I saw one yesterday for the first time during football because I typically avoid all the classic sources of commercials, and it was just two dude bros who looked like they were making a podcast sitting around saying "Yo, I don't want all my tax money being used to give prisoners sex change operations". And I thought, "who on earth would this possible convince to vote for Trump who wasn't already absolutely going to?"
