Just to say I’m not really here anymore. I’m over on Bluesky with the other geeks and writers and academics. Maybe see you there.

@quantick A French exit?

@ItsJohnRain @MitchBenn The producers kept having the same title meeting over and over and over again.

@MitchBenn @ItsJohnRain They fudged it for the home media release. Used the tag line Live Die Repeat really big and hid the actual title away.

@ItsJohnRain STUPID title though. Until about a month before release it was called Live Die Repeat which was way better. Then some fucking suit changed it to something which managed to be both meaningless AND utterly forgettable

@TFTimeMachine fyi: dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-ne…

@christhebarker Perhaps he’s just having a bad day. It was a very odd reaction. Clearly everyone’s going to reach for similar jokes in moments like that. I saw loads of repeated gags yesterday - it’s part of the fun of everyone being online talking about the same thing.

I have a long history of making crappy jokes on Twitter and to be accused of joke theft is offensive. He’s blocked both my accounts now so that’s that. Shame. I liked his content.

I regret to announce that I have been accused of joke theft. Not that it’s a big thing but it’s important to me that everyone knows that I hadn’t seen his version of the same joke that he tweeted after I did that apparently he had already made on Bluesky but I hadn’t seen.

@Dempster2000 I think Ed Davey is basing his campaign on Kent Brockman in Eye On Springfield

Powerful Make-A-Wish Foundation® energy to Davey’s campaign thus far

@Scriblit Guaranteed that doing a gap year Raleigh International will count as your community service

@almurray The public vote could change it all. Those shorts will have gone big.

@benpartridge @beansaladpod Does the slide need to be in keynote? If it’s just a still image could you export as a PDF, then turn of screen mirroring (Cmd + F1) so the projector is a separate desktop, and launch the PDF full screen in that desktop?

(specifically I want the keynote to be projecting a still slide that we use as a backdrop for @beansaladpod live shows while still being able to use Ableton to trigger audio)

Hello! I would love help with being able to use Keynote on a projector while being able to use my laptop to do other things while the Keynote is displaying. Can anyone help?

@profanityswan I heard two versions of that

@Herring1967 You have to spot bottles with consecutive numbers. Keep digging.

Found this in parents’ garden doing archaeology! Bubbles in glass. Numbers on bottom 5621 with 99 in the middle. Any ideas how old it might be?

@robmanuel The replies have introduced me to the term ‘AI slop’, so at least there’s that.

This won't really damage Pink Floyd's reputation as they've got reputation to burn but fuck me, paying money for shit created by someone typing 'make guitars trippy" into a GAN is embarrassing. Let's hope at least, the outcry warns others off this junk.

@RufusTSuperfly Always reminds me of The Far Side for some reason.
