Awful media player by Apple which is usually installed by people only because they need it to run a .MOV file, Apple's shitty proprietary video format. Constantly freezes or lags out on older computers and laptops, and has the ugliest, most unintuitive GUI ever. Has features that require a paid PRO license which are free in other programs, such as video conversion. Has absolutely no support at all for the Windows version. It leaves behind various malware such as Apple Application Support and Apple Software Update when uninstalled.

May 22 Word of the Day
A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.
Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:
* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic

"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s

A pointless program made to run movies. Annoys the fucking hell out of you when you accidentally click on it.

A video format from Apple with the shittiest and gayest SDK I have ever seen, and even worse documentation. Includes such revealing function names as MoviesTask(), and short, easy to type constant names as kQTMovieAudioExtractionPropertyID _AudioStreamBasicDescription. Actually has a constant called DoTheRightThing, and calls setting things up "preflighting". I can just picture Quicktime engineers sitting in their turtleneck sweaters thinking that using words like "preflight" somehow makes them cool. Having spent some time with the Quicktime APIs I think I can safely assume that general Mac development is just as retarded.
Dude, I have been trying to find what numerical value kQTAnnoyingLongAssConstantNames _IDontHaveTwentyFingersToTypeThisShit maps to in the Quicktime header files, but haven't had any luck so far.
