But anyway, we need more things with Stephanie Leonidas in a leading role. She's way too good an actress for all that supporting role, guest role stuff. And then they need to actually release the films to all countries instead of keeping it in the UK/US. #StephanieLeonidas
Stephanie Leonidas posted some photos of an upcoming film of hers on Twitter and Instagram. The posts don't say which film, but she captioned it "Donna", which according to imdb is her character in 5lbs of Pressure. #StephanieLeonidas #5lbsOfPressure
Ok, got a message from Instagram that they are going to put my data into AI (presumably to decrease the I). There's a link somewhere in the message that you have the 'right to object'. Obviously the link is a dead link.
The form now works. That is, the link to the form works. You need to enter (required) how being ingested into AI affects you, so I wrote some stuff. Then you also need to enter your country and email. They send a code to the email, which you need to enter. Then they tell you your country doesn't exist.
After many tries I found the trick: don't pick the name of your country from the auto complete. Fill in the abbreviation like NL. It does accept that. Full force dark patterns... #Meta #Instagram
I was trying to look into a minor issue with my mother's wifi router, but not remembering the password I attempted to log in a bit too much. When it stopped connecting to the internet at all I had apparently broken it completely and I tried to fix it for quite a while. Two resets and reconfiguring later we had finally internet back. Then we read on that internet that there had been a big outage with several service providers where their routes to Google had been broken, many people reporting problems.
So the conclusion is clear: Google's routes run through my mother's wifi router.
Doctor Who series 1 (yeah, I don't know either, second reboot I guess) starts tonight at 18:20 UK time, 19:20 CEST, on BBC One, with two episodes. #DoctorWho
Great interview with Miranda Cosgrove in Bustle magazine, with great photos by Kat Slootsky. She talks about her life and fame and how her life as a celebrity has been somewhat different than others. Miranda's film Mother of the Bride is out now on Netflix.
Apparently I still have an account at Dell, because of ordering a pc several decades ago, so I received their notification of a breach. I'm sorry to say to the hackers that accessed this customer information, that none of it is actual anymore.
Dafne Keen will executive produce and star in a new film called Night Comes. The film's description looks very interesting, being a horror thriller that is both action and character based, set in a world without rules and gender roles. It is further produced by the people behind Get Out.
The two actresses playing sisters trying to survive the horror also rather look like they could be sisters. This explains Dafne's Instagram story of yesterday, where she posted an extreme closeup of her with another young woman, but they looked so alike and it was so closeup, that you couldn't tell who's who. Dafne must have known the announcement was coming today and wanted to skirt around the edges of what the embargo would allow... #DafneKeen #NightComes
Wow. I've had this personal clevo laptop for four years, it's great, the only disappointment is that it doesn't have a display signal over its USB-C connector, meaning I need a separate mini-Displayport cable to my monitor, where all other work laptops can just use the USB-C cable. It not supporting a video signal over USB-C is confirmed both in practice by my monitor, as well as by rereading the specs on the website which I didn't do properly before buying it.
Turns out, four years later, that I just need to turn on this feature in the BIOS? It could do this all along?
The setting is called "DDI to Thunderbolt" which was set to "DDI to mDP". This disables the mini-Displayport (you can't have it both ways) but sends the 'digital display interface' over the Thunderbolt/USB-C connector. This should also allow me to use my MHL cable to watch Netflix on my mother's tv (USB-C to HDMI), which previously involved a more complicated screen mirroring setup with my tablet.
I was super-confused for quite a bit more than a bit...
Where do Americans put the documents they're discussing if not on the table? If their table is full of documents they're not discussing, is anything they've taken off the table, what they are discussing? Where do these land? On the floor? Ah, is that what 'bringing something to the floor' means?
"In parliamentary procedure, the verb to table has the opposite meaning in the United States from that of the rest of the world:
In the United States, to "table" usually means to postpone or suspend consideration of a pending motion. Generally, to avoid spending time on debate and consideration. In the rest of the English-speaking world, to "table" means to begin consideration (or reconsideration) of a proposal."
Wednesday season two has started production this week, so lots of promo coming from everyone involved. Thing has posted his first grwm on TikTok. #Wednesday
Looks like this time they avoid the harsh Romanian winter by starting filming in spring and by not being in Romania. They film in Ireland this time if I remember correctly. Last time they were filming over eight months including winter, while living in an apartment building with a permanently broken hot water boiler.
I saw several British actresses as new additions to the cast, notably Billie Piper and Frances O'Connor. The decor for some bts photos was Wednesday's and Enid's dorm room, so it seems to still include Nevermore Academy.
Hey, the trailer for Hotel Cocaine is out! Corina Bradley plays in this series on MGM+, she's the daughter in this trailer. Here's the link on her TikTok: vm.tiktok.com/ZIJngQt5X/ #CorinaBradley #HotelCocaine
There's these marketing departments desperately trying to fit their trailers in vertical format by using some extreme pan-and-scan, including this very series in their Instagram reel. Then there's gen-z Corina who just knows the features of her platform and straight up posts the full landscape trailer on her TikTok.
I've been there! Climbed all the way to the top benches and sat there for a while. The acoustics are truly impressive. It's not at all loud and echo-y as I expected, but perfectly clear.
Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus, Peloponnese - Greece :
It is regarded as the best preserved ancient theatre in Greece in terms of its perfect acoustics and fine structure. It was constructed in late 4th Century BC and it was finalized in two stages. Originally theatre had 34 rows of seats divided into 34 blocks by stairs and walkways. Due to its incomparable acoustics, the actors can be perfectly heard by all 15,000 spectators, as you can even hear the sound of a pin dropping.

The weirdest thing, but it turned out to be a user (me) error and is now solved. But still weird.
Since around the end of March, three weeks ago, my @Tuta android app on my Samsung phone failed to connect to the servers, while the same app on my Samsung tablet worked fine. Wiped its data, reinstalled, installed old version, switched to the play store, nothing helped. Logs show there's a certificate failure connecting to app.tuta.com over https. Chrome connects fine.
But, Chrome does a few confusing things: the site mentions 'tuta is now called tuta' instead of the normal message 'tutanota is now called tuta'. Also does it popup a message that there's a new version, which is weird for a webapp that I haven't installed. Also does Chrome report that the certificate expired last January, but Chrome doesn't see this as an error. Comparing against my tablet, but there the site and cert are all good. Checking again on my phone and all these issues are gone. Hence no screensho

Turned out I had disabled some root certificates on my phone, including the one Tuta, via Let's Encrypt, uses: ISRG Root X1. Enabling that one and all was fixed.
Now I'm just confused. I made that change years ago. Why did the tuta app only last month have problems with it? Did their root change? And why doesn't Chrome protest, since I use a lot of Let's Encrypt certificates. And why did Chrome first give me this expired certificate? Has to be a cache thing plus Chrome maybe having its own list of CAs.
The Instagram app now also supports landscape. I don't know when this changed, but they were one of the last holdouts of the portrait only gang. End of an era.

I don't believe at all that they actually read what you write in the reason.
