That ad thing is weird, I’ve not seen anything like that at all. In fact I don’t even see video ads. Where is this, in your feed? Or when you open a thread?

I wonder if it’s to do with how the feed is set up? I use Small Cards view, don’t know if that’s maybe preventing me seeing the ads in the first place? I do sometimes see small static ads at the top of a thread, but that’s all.

I still use Sync every day, and I can’t think of any issues I’ve had with it. What sort of bugs do you mean?

I’m still using Sync (for Lemmy) but I’ll need to check Voyager out, since it seems Sync is now abandoned.

Can I fly in and then fly home again immediately? If so, sure. Otherwise, no.

Always enjoy those videos from Japan of 100 (or more) school kids playing football ⚽ against a handful of professionals.

Eg: https://youtu.be/MYFcTWKcuQM

Another one, this time from Germany: https://youtu.be/iEOKI2jeETM

Already commented on this, but thought of some more:

Isley Brothers: Ohio/Machine Gun - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC6qOvfgDJI (this is a cover of 2 tunes, the first by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, the second by Jimi Hendrix)

And just released today (like, 2 hours ago) - Massive Attack, Tom Waits - Boots on the Ground: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-57FrioeuE

Ah yeah, that would have been a better choice actually, good shout.

A few suggestions:

• Bob Dylan - A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall
• RATM - Bulls on Parade
• Dead Kennedys - Kill the Poor

And for a more optimistic, but still defiant take, R.E.M.'s Living Well is the Best Revenge.

David Lynch. His death hit me like a punch to the heart.

Also Adam Yauch (MCA).

My country did qualify (Scotland) so I’ll be up for a few VERY late sessions in the pub (our first game kicks off at 2am our time!) 😁🍻😴

Yep. And we’ve managed to draw 2 of the 3 teams we played in that tournament (Brazil and Morocco) - what are the chances?! 🙄

Sadly not! 😁

My client conversations are spread across different messaging platforms, and sometimes important or more detailed discussions just get buried or overlooked.

Yep, I have exactly this problem too. Instructions/feedback are spread across Teams messages, phone calls, video calls, and email, between and across multiple clients.

To bring it all together we tried using Trello - and now instructions/feedback are spread across Teams messages, phone calls, video calls, email and Trello.

It’s basically XKCDMultipleStandards.jpg ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Definitely Grover. I had a brilliant Grover book as a kid, called The Monster at the End of This Book, and I’ve always loved that blue rascal ever since 😁

Yeah, I’ve never heard of it being used to target people with disabilities (although looking it up, I see it can be used that way, TIL) - I’ve only ever thought of it as a judgement on character/behaviour. Like I’d have no issue with anyone describing Trump as a degenerate, because he’s a sick, twisted, vindictive, corrupt prick.

I think this is the exact plot of The Discovery on Netflix. In the film, it leads to a lot of suicide.

Might make more of a statement to simply remove the US flag and have nothing there.

Replacing it with something else makes it look like you’ve chosen a cause in preference to the USA.

Removing it simply says that you are no longer showing support for the US, with no other message. Also less likely to make you a target.

Al Green - How Can You Mend a Broken Heart?

When he sings, “Cos mine is”, it gets me right there. See also “How can you mend… this broken man…” 😭

In a nuclear war loads of people wouldn’t die but would love unhappily ever after.

I think it’d be hard to get into the mood at all tbh.

If they made history, then they are historic, not historical. Well, they’re historical too, to be fair.
