For a real life complement to the film I would highly recommend this 1973 BBC documentary on life on Bishop Rock Lighthouse [0] and this modern day 2025 vlog of a lighthouse worker [1]. Sadly I did not see any mention…
Yes, using AI as per the filename "backgroundexpandedusingai" [0], it seems to be an expanded version of this pic from Wikipedia [1] (but blurrier). [0] https://8400e186.delivery.rocketcdn.me/articles/wp-content/u...…
Both his Instagram [0] and YouTube pages [1] are still up. He had a habit of uploading screen recordings of his chats with ChatGPT. It looks like fairly standard incomprehensible psychosis messages but it seems notable…
Big thanks for the heads up, I had no idea about this. It looks like I will not be able to get any prepaid money back [0] so I will be careful not to put any further money on it. I guess I better start using some of the…
I doubt these planned and coordinated attacks on infrastructure are carried out by the same individuals that opportunistically burn cars during New Years Eve.
I've been using the Azure Cognitive Services speech recognition and text-to-speech for my own locally run 'speech-to-speech' GPT assistant application. I found the Azure speech recognition to be fantastic, almost never…
The IMDb page for the film [0] does appear to have an Emmy win as trivia, but I can't find anything about this documentary on the 2013 Sports Emmy Awards Wikipedia page [1] or its source [2]. It is not listed as…
That sounds similar to the Czechoslovak series Pat & Mat [0] which contains almost no dialog, but it became very popular in The Netherlands (as 'Buurman en Buurman', neighbor and neighbor) where Dutch dialog was added.…
From the video it seems as though the script writer (who doesn't speak any Japanese) wrote the script entirely using what he thinks the characters are saying and what he would 'want' them to say. The Wikipedia page for…
According to Meduza she's been fined 30k rubles (~€250) https://twitter.com/meduza_en/status/1503766710863728647?t=7...
This sounds like an extremely uncharitable interpretation of what (if genuine) is a very brave thing to do. For some further information: Marina Ovsyannikova has been charged with "organizing an unauthorized public…
Paywalled, anyone have an archive link? A March 11th 2022 John Mearsheimer account on the Russian war in Ukraine sounds extremely interesting.
OP's post is from March 8. Yesterday (March 10) the leak was released [0] and judging from a quick glance to the responses it's nothing more than the result of scraping of their websites. No actual source code leaks.…
Whoops. There are many different uploads of this song and it is hard to tell which is the original (if it is on YouTube in the first place). This one should work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=828xmcujEaI Otherwise,…

Does anyone know what's up with the "xn--*" TLDs? e.g. xn--pssy2u I didn't know TLDs could have dashes or maybe I'm misunderstanding these.
The game was called Flappy Bird. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flappy_Bird Though I don't think the term "flappening" is quite as endearing.
Works absolutely flawlessly on mobile for me (Android Firefox). The animations are very satisfying and the game is very fun. Fantastic work! edit: This is on OxygenOS 11.1.2.2 and FireFox 96.3.1
Could you share an example of a YouTube video that does not have an upload date? I watch quite a lot of YouTube and very frequently look up the date that videos were uploaded. I've never found this information to be…
