Came home to find the husband dancing stark bollock naked singing "I Am A Disco Dancer". He didn't see me so I left and reentered noisily. Nothing has been said.
@fesshole So you didn't join him?

> YouTube-ism is the tendency to mutate your work to conform to what the platform allows but also, perhaps even more critically, to please your audience and acquire new followers. This is a particularly acute issue for people who earn their living from a channel: they are fearful of a loss of income due to a loss of followers.
@baldur I guess this is what Doctorow coins as being a reverse kentaur? - pleasing the algorithm...

Torwart, der im Nazi-Shirt und mit Nazi-Buch posiert und auf der Feier eines Nazikaders auftaucht, scheint für den Vorstand des VfL Halle kein Nazi zu sein.
Jedenfalls kein Problem. Tatsächlich als Problem nimmt der Verein Fans wahr, die dagegen protestieren, und wirft sie aus dem Stadion.

If you're wondering who the hell sits down to watch every single Jurassic Park film when ITV reruns them on Sundays, it's my mum. I'm sorry.
@fesshole your mum is Tom Cardy

@mcc Yes, but only in animal prison. They seem to deal with it OK, we don't hear of a lot of penguin escape rampages, but I want them to live in the wild.

@TheBreadmonkey This is always the only thing that pops into my mind when I see the name 'Robin', so I had to have a laugh when I saw your new moniker.

Everything is in Markdown now
Almost thought it's downgrading but it's actually 4 decimals 😵💫
@cheeaun But isn't 6.1 < 6.9? 🤔
@quincy Hey, can I interest you in the Four Colour Theorem?
Finally solved by judicious use of a computer, but that's neither here nor there.
The current "AI revolution" it math has a completely different dynamic and motivation, doesn't it.
It's nothing but a blatant attempt to usurp and centralize the very means of doing intellectual work.
