#X

Yep, pushed back to 3 Feb (Dutch cinemas). Also no sign here of The Fallout, which will be released everywhere on 27 Jan (hbomax + cinemas), with everywhere probably meaning everywhere but here.

So Scream (2022) will be in Dutch cinemas 20 January. Though I guess it will be pushed back further due to covid. This is the Scream with Jenna Ortega. Time to watch Scream (1996) to get ready for the event. It's on Ziggo now.

I'm looking up when I followed some training course and my memory says it was 'recently' and 'near the end of the year'. This portal however says it was February 2021. Who to believe?

I'm experimenting with having Friendica media stored on S3 rather than locally. Natively rather than with s3fs. There are some reasons why I think this may not have good performance. But it seems to be holding up so far, on the test server at least.

These were test posts to see how Friendica media storage on S3 is holding up. So far so good.

Gonna share some posts from my test server to see whether it all comes crashing down.

Ah, the 'helpless' act. "But who's gonna drive me home" she says while sitting in her very own car with her very own 'Missy' license plates on it.

Missy is a properly intriguing character, played very well by Neve Campbell. I like this kind of film. Normally when a woman character in a film is the victim of things, she's portrayed all through the film as having a victim-like personality. Missy is not portrayed like that at all (most men in the film are scared of her), so you catch yourself as viewer questioning things and then questioning your preconceptions as a film should.

The goal is that the people who deny there is a problem can eventually say 'see, panic over nothing'.

I missed when it happened, but #guppe is now at the "a.gup.pe" address. Adjust your groups as needed.

For those who don't know, it is a server where you can make groups by just mentioning them in a post. Anybody who subscribes to such a group receives all the posts that have that name tagged. A bit like subscribing to a hashtag, but in the fediverse hashtags don't federate, so that doesn't work; this does.

Dafne Keen looking back to yesterday when it was her 17th birthday, which I missed because I'm an idiot and thought it was today. Well, I've not really booted up yet this year, so what'd you expect.

Happy Birthday for yesterday and also already for next year! Hope to get His Dark Materials S3 soon.

Others will “just ask questions”, which is usually just a way of spreading conspiracy theories while maintaining plausible deniability. Others will “flood the zone” with so much contradictory information that people start to doubt whether an objective truth even exists at all.

This plan to decarbonise by using gas power plants is a bit like decarbonising the ground and putting it into the air.

Who knew, free certificates with dns validation and automatic renewal if used for a free (up to some limit anyway) cdn... Anyway, PeerTube is now upgraded to v4 and the videos moved to S3 object storage. I initially messed up CORS, of course, as always, but it works now. And I didn't even want to use a CDN, but it is the only way to use a CNAME instead of the bucket address and still use https instead of http.

This was mainly a note to self: I am looking for free wildcard certificates that automatically refresh, and the let's encrypt ones don't (easily, safely) refresh when using dns validation. The amazon ones do, and are free under certain conditions. This may work for me.

A sign that you're too old to be using #TikTok: when you have to take off your glasses to watch the video.

I like that #Tiktok doesn't even allow DMs to be open. It's either fully off or followed people only.

#Instagram however only allows you to switch off DM notifications, they are always open.

Watching Claire Foy because of Claire Foy. She's in the miniseries A Very British Scandal on the BBC. I missed the first episode, but I already like her character Margaret who has a lot more personality than you'd expect from a Duchess.

Not sure what the scandal of the title is yet, but the facts that she's the third wife of the Duke and that she has her own string of men she goes out with may have something to do with it.

So Amazon's Alexa would just suggest stuff it 'found on the web'. Most people have wisened up to not trust random websites, not so these smart devices. And Amazon says it fixed it, but only by stopping it from suggesting such challenges. The main problem therefore remains.

I'm watching The Girl Before. I keep mixing up the two main actresses, which is sort of the point since these characters are supposed to look like each other and their stories are told in parallel, sometimes even cutting between them in the same scene.

It's hitting a bit of a limitation of mine. Sometimes I recognise (on tv) someone I wasn't even expecting from their silhouette only, sometimes I don't recognise someone while clearly seeing their face.

So they're ready to launch the James Webb Space Telescope!

And yes, I remember it's the Ariane rocket, not the Ariana rocket, after getting it wrong a while back.

An easy trick to remember Ariane vs Ariana: the tall one is not the Grande one.

Talked to my daughter (8) about the covid situation this morning.

She said “It’s just like climate change. They won’t do anything because they say it’s too expensive, but it will end up costing humans.”

She’s more correct than she knows, the parallel’s run deeper.

Hallo @hbomaxnl, 27 jan komt The Fallout wereldwijd bij HBOMax. Aangezien Ziggo stopt met HBO per 1 jan, kan ik er vanuit gaan dat ik deze film dan bij jullie kan zien? Het zou vervelend zijn als we in Nederland net buiten de boot zouden vallen. Ik wacht hier al lang op...

The Disney film Upside-Down Magic is surprisingly sad. It's about squashed dreams and kids having to come to terms with having no future. Obviously there's a different resolution to the film. Siena Agudong as Reina (second lead in the film and the reason I watched it) is amazing as the girl who's buckling under the pressure of expectations and insecurities. You really feel this role. Alison Fernandez in the supporting role of Pepper is really good as well; I know her from Logan and the final season of Once Upon a Time. Izabela Rose of course carries the film very well as the girl who's magic is 'upside-down'.
