I see that there's Taxi and Taxi 5 available on Netflix. I've seen 1, 2, and 3 before and liked them a lot. So I decided to watch Taxi 5.

About 10 minutes in I'm like.. do I even want to finish watching this? It's all so cheap American humor in this French movie. Zero fun. Barfing (like unrealistic spraying it around) in the car is apparently hilarious... :eyeroll:

Meh, very disappointed.

I find it a bit concerning how mastodon talks about their software and new features as if they exist in a vaccum. They talk about implementing a QT feature and forcing people to opt-in or not... Meanwhile the rest of the fediverse has had the QT feature since forever, including modified mastodon instances. We already have a standard, no you cant force opt-in.. .either implement it or dont, you cant force other software to block a feature just because you on your server didnt "opt-in". Its literally equivelant to a link to the original post...

This book has been out of print for decades and is truly a lesson for anyone joining any organization... or anyone who's worked on any "legacy" process" (image descriptions populated)

Just in case any fans haven’t seen this lovely mashup carol, ‘tis the season!

Since I watched Glass Onion yesterday, I found out that it was sorta the sequel to Knives Out. Same detective.

So I thought why not, lemme watch Knives Out today! And so I did!

Oh my.. that was a complete mindfuckery going on, lol. Good one though.

Just a reminder, there are tons of servers on the fediverse with quote toot feature, and they all follow the same standard. QOTO is a mastodon instance with Quote toots for example. Fedibird is also a very large server that is mastodon based that has the feature. All Misskey servers also have the feature.

Ah yigh, I'm now noticing the aftereffect of having tea spilled over my keyboard the other day. My ESC and ` buttons are very... I'd use the Dutch word 'stroperig' for it. :P As if there's a layer of syrup sticking stuff together below those buttons which makes those buttons very hard to press and slow to react.

I guess I'll have to grab my other keyboard soon. And then screw open this affected keyboard to cleanse it, heh.

Just finished watching Glass Onion. That was actually a pretty entertaining whodunnit movie. I can't really say any details about this one because everything is at risk of being a damn spoiler, lol. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The Steam Winter Sale should start this evening. Mmm, hoping for some nice discounts there.

Continued playing Gamedec, I sorta 'solved' the 3rd case now... I have absolutely no idea where this'll lead to! The storyline's getting increasingly trippy and the 3rd case ended with a huge cliffhanger.

Arguably, an image unseen is *also* not funny. As is artwork unseen.

The alt text isn't meant to replace the originals - it augments them so that people who can't participate in the original experience aren't entirely excluded.

A deaf person can watch and enjoy a movie using subtitles, even if the experience isn't quite as good.

If you see a group speaking a foreign language and they all laugh uproariously, having someone tell you "that guy made a very funny joke about a political leader you've never heard of" is a lot better than sitting there wondering what is going on.

And if you're experiencing mastodon via braille, a post saying "Elon after he has a poll that goes the wrong way" then nothing isn't as good as getting "popular meme showing pikachu with a surprised face" so at least you know what the joke was about.

It's about inclusivity. It's not meant to be perfect.

Sure, a bagless vacuum is very nice... except that it's absolutely dusty when you try to empty them, and of course the wind is BLOWING IT ALL IN YOUR FACE!

*Cough cough*

Hoger opgeleiden hechten meer aan eenvoudige teksten! Dat blijkt uit onderzoek.

"Natuurlijk leverde een eenvoudiger taalgebruik mee begrip op. Maar opvallend was dat het voor hoger opgeleiden net zo goed gold als voor lager opgeleiden. Nog opvallender was echter dat die hoger opgeleiden de eenvoud ook meer waardeerden in de tekst en dat zij bovendien de schrijver van de eenvoudigere tekst vriendelijker vonden, terwijl het voor de lager opgeleiden minder uitmaakte."

Oh jeez, this Xmas play is going to be chaotic. I'll just keep doing my best filming all that...
Also wearing a mask atm because I have a damned cold. I've put in menthol drops in my mask so I can actually breathe very well while wearing it. 😋

Uncle From Another World is pretty crazy. Almost as insane as The Way of the Househusband.

Watching back the videos I've made so far of the rehearsal. I'm of the opinion that they should've switched the kids for Bill Sykes and Oliver Twist. Bill is only half the size of Oliver and is way too cute looking. 😅

Also, I need to figure out a way to lessen the vibrations on the camera.
