how to embed youtube shorts into Lemmy

fwiw you can turn a youtube short into a regular video by replacing the “shorts” in the URL with a “v”. I think the way youtube videos are embedded depends on the client that the end-user uses tho.

This reminds me of a short film called “Please Hold” from a year or two ago. appropriately enough it’s pay-to-view but you can watch an (AI generated?) summary here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2hDPLzrUQ0

yeah there was no chance NIN was going to do anything really experimental here, which is kindofa shame, there were a couple directions on the Events/Violence/Witch EPs that woulda been great to follow up on, or do some new kind of innovation. but there’s something to be said for albums that synthesize and refine what the musician has accomplished, and the constraint of a PG-13 rating seems to have produced that type of album. I think Trent doesn’t really need the money, and he’s already won a couple Oscars and Grammys, I think he took this job bc he wanted to do it.

“Do you love being a scientist? Or do you love the IDEA of being a scientist?” - something I’ve been thinking a lot about recently…

ikr I’m gonna skip the movie just so I don’t associate the music with it. come to think of it I didn’t watch Legacy til several years after it came out.

Looks really cozy!

In modern-day Phoenix, the Hohokam are recognized for their large-scale irrigation networks. Their canal network in the Phoenix metropolitan area was the most complex in the pre-contact Western Hemisphere. A portion of the ancient canals has been renovated for the Salt River Project and helps to supply the city’s water.

Regardless of what you think of him, The Autobiography of Malcolm X is a fascinating and well-written book (co-authored with Alex Haley). It’s available at many public libraries.

not only. The cat was the mastermind! Just look at that killer stare…

Rule 63 was created in mid-2007 as an addition to the humorous “Rules of the Internet”,

I don’t understand everything on this chart, but it looks like sh.itjust.works lagged a bit over the past 24 hours and is now catching up.

Juggalo cat.

The problem is when I’m also blindingly stupid for 30 seconds a day, and can’t tell the difference.

Well you’ve got a lot of great recommendtions in general on this post, but while we’re on the topic of war movies:

• Gettysburg (1993) has some great character studies, the book it’s based on is “The Killer Angels” and also worth reading
• Zulu (1964) is another product of its times but they did an outstanding job, and it’s a solid depiction of English defensive tactics of the late 1800s

Yah, OP seems to like war movies, so I’d add:

• A Bridge Too Far - a classic, tho kinda old-fashioned moviemaking
• Apocalypse Now - another classic, still seems fresh
• Waterloo - the only good movie about Napoleon
• 1917 - some really amazing camerawork

In 1936, Nazi Germany’s Kriegsmarine (navy) commissioned a three-masted training ship and named it the Horst Wessel.[92] The ship was taken as a war prize by the United States after World War II.[92] After repairs and modifications, it was commissioned on 15 May 1946 into the United States Coast Guard as the USCGC Eagle (WIX-327) and remains in service to this day.

I use prepaid cards for Twitch and similar online services. It’s great because they always try to dark-pattern you into subscriptions, but then they’re all plaintive when your account runs out and they don’t have a credit card to perpetually drain. (actually, it’s more like “stages of grief”… first it’s alarmist: “your payment has failed!!!” then it’s businesslike: “remember to re-subscribe!” THEN it’s plaintive: “(name of performer) misses you on Our Moneydraining Platform!” then it’s nostalgic: “remember the good times you had on Our Moneydraining Platform? It’s not too late to re-subscribe!”) However, there’s usually a slight extra charge for the cards.

Cash irl is great but a slight downside is making sure you’re always carrying enough. Also, if you drop it somewhere it’s just gone.

Then it goes on to say that AI is just here to help, which I think is supposed to evoke sympathy for something that was unfairly demonized. Something I don’t agree with.

Yeah. I woulda liked it better if the robot in the last panel was standing in the same pose and said: “This interaction is being recorded for training purposes.”
