Night and the City (1950)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_and_the_City
This weird design makes both main actors look up and to the left, so we're all staring at that guy behind bars, but they're not prison bars, right? They're weirdly angled? It's confusing and awkward.
Note the slight hint in that background image that the city in question is London.

@FilmNoirPosters Also, Widmark is weirdly straddling the 20th Century Fox logo. 😆
Everything I'll ship will be Web-first, desktop second and then mobile third. That's just the fact of the matter when it comes to serving the public.
@jacky.wtf *nods* this is the way

How private do you consider your votes in the Threadiverse?
From the technical side anyone can spin up their own Lemmy instance and view all votes, but I'm curious at what the community's perspective on how "private" that is. I think Mbin already shows upvoters? Piefed allows anonymous voting. I also know there are sites which show all voting history, but assuming those are fairly disliked.
My general questions to the community: - Do you expect your votes to be private, or just not shown in the UI? - Would per-voter votes showing up on another aggregator platform bother you, even though your instance already shares them with other servers?
For context I'm the dev doing some two way bridge interop between atproto + Threadiverse, in atproto the votes/likes are generally publicly accessible, you just look at the users repo through something like pdsls.dev, they're readable and archivable by anyone. In my opinion this isn't that big of a problem since it's fairly hard to look at and discern (Ex all my votes: https://pdsls.dev/at://did:plc:lmdkqemqrqnfiix72pyjhfey/social.coves.feed.vote). Ultimately trying to figure out if there's already a mutual understanding that they are public and we can just mirror them or whether they should stay hidden as an aggregate.
They are not, it’s akin to shouting in the rain. Most people will be inside not getting wet, but there people that either like the rain, or get paid to stand in it
The lemmy vote viewer is quite limited but I suspect that there are are a few servers that have spun there own DB queries and charting:
@ageha it is superficially similar to trump threatening mexican cartels or invading venezuela but the difference seems to be that: haitian gangs actually did start this and are doing something directly bad that had to get the el salvadoran government involved; bukele actually did it not just bluster (like trump against cartels); succeeding (unlike trump and iran); a lot of people in haiti are cheering this on because the gangs are bad and people hate them
@ageha this is all subject to the disclaimer that I'm getting all this information from a few sources that could be completely biased.
@ageha from what I understand haitian gangs murdered some salvadoran nationals (like civilian pilots or something) and bukele now is erasing the gangs, capturing and arresting their heads, very quickly trhough military action. which is interestng because it's demolished the "mystique" of haitian gangs as unstoppable "cool" force.

Having just been through the desert carrying a guy with no name, it felt good to get out of the rain.
@woozle An annotated version of "Das Kapital" is a great Christmas gift 💖
@kookie oooh...
(I'd feel obligated to read it myself first, though, and... I have pretty much zero time for serious reading these days. le sad)

I forgot what the album was called for a sec and got really surprised by this link.
@misty Download Suspended would be a good name for an album too
If you follow musicians this has probably come up already but remember today is Bandcamp Friday. That means if you buy from Bandcamp in the next six hours the artists get more money because Bandcamp waives their "cut". Link tangentially related
I love "shell2shell".

I like it when an editor or author sneaks one past the suits with a headline that most people won’t think twice about.

@siracusa I’ve heard the sound of “Age of consent” in my head the moment I’ve seen the picture;)

your morning jacket??!
@mattblaze yet another difference in voting procedures between states and counties. Been a poll worker for several years and here there is nothing more for the voter to do after we accept their provisional ballot.
@dexter Yes, but in every state if there’s a dispute about a voter’s eligibility or identity, they can cast a provisional ballot and then go to a judge to make their case. That’s codified in HAVA.
