That song is great and i've used parts of it for unimportant passwords in the past because of how memorable it is

The old one is undoubtedly a better movie, but the new one is undoubtedly a much better mario movie

that attitude got us in this mess. The internet was free before corporate interests and the series of eternal september esque events happening from '98 onward caused largely by accessibility. Whatever we come up with needs to be difficult enough to access so corporations can't turn everyone into "customers".
