This version of the Blue Screen of Death (1995) is closer to 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968 - 27 years) than it is to the present day (2025 - 30 years).

And much closer to 2001 as well!

Funfact: HAL9000 singing "Daisy" when pulling circuit boards is a reference to the IBM 7094 using the first speech synth in 1961, which was just 7 years before the movie.
