I was thinking it would be about the old-school handle pattern like in classic Mac OS, where memory allocation APIs returned pointers to pointers so the OS can move things around behind the scenes.
The most striking thing about this is the homogeneity of the photo set -- seems like footage drawn exclusively from college/university people partying in the first decade of the millennium.
Those pictures are way older. I would say early/mid 2000s. Some guy wears a lostprophets shirt which should be based on the 2001 album. They are either first generations of digital cameras or scanned analog if you ask me.
Lots of Red Eye flash shots as well, but in fairness: with drunk people (slower response time for things like more modern anti-red-eye pre-flash) and flashes close to the eyes, it's still fairly common even with modern cameras/phones.
