For those of you using youtube-dl, Google is being scummy and it's throttling the connection to their servers to those using it.

https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/29326

For now, the workaround to make it work is to switch to yt-dlp, which is a fork of youtube-dl.

Interesting fact of the day: The term "patching" software originates from the fact that you would literally patch holes in early hole punch input in order to fix an issue. Attached is a picture with such patches on it from the Harvard Mark I computer.

>>1. Matrix requires a lot of work to build a server, but Discord does not.
If you're hosting your own local server, yes- otherwise, it's easy to create a new channel/chat. Discord doesn't allow you to host your own server, so you would be just creating the same thing anyway.
>>2. Matrix costs money to maintain the service, but Discord doesn't unless you sign up for Nitro or something.
Not sure if we're talking about the same thing- I've never heard of anyone paying to use Matrix.
>>3. Matrix is not used by many people around me, but Discord has users all over the world, making it the best way to communicate.
I suppose since you're trying to target a larger audience, using Discord would be the most sensible option. This last reason is enough in itself to justify not using Matrix- so I guess the previous 2 are moot point anyway. Sorry to have wasted your time.

Museums are finding it nearly impossible to post imagery containing artistic nudity on social media because their posts keep getting deleted and accounts suspended or banned, so Vienna's museums opened a page on OnlyFans.

TikTok closed the Alberta museum account for showing an obscured woman's breast.

Facebook ruled the 25,000 year old Venus of Willendorf figurine as pornographic and removed the post.

Today's dinner:::
Rice, veggies, rotisserie chicken and hot curry sauce.

@Secftblgirl
If Facebook is overly prepared to combat extremists, does that make them extremists as well?

@shoshin
Someone should tell him social distancing doesn't apply to mannequins... Nvm...

@FaxxxxPod
Good evening.
Yes, the weather is too hot.
I'm staying inside.

@meowski
I gotta build back up to that point- but haven't been running for a while cuz of the insane heat and constant smoke in the air.

Currently 96*F at 4pm on a Saturday. I wish it were 30* less- or at least 20*...

@icedquinn
The only stuff I was taught was in-house stuff, which is understandable.

Then I learned tricks they didn't even know.

I lack growth and have been stuck grooming others. I need to relocate somewhere- either within the network or somewhere uncharted for me.

@meowski
After I shred, I burn. I have a firepit that I play pyro with.
