@StacieBee absurd. Also very true. 😂

@vickietorious depends on the app. I believe the web interface has translation?

1/ Valencian Election Thread.
Watching results of #elecciones28M #valencia. Voting is ongoing. Live turnout numbers: 2PM local time (5AM PDT) 1.5M ballots cast 43.7% of registered voters. Down 0.55% from this time last election (2019) but represents an actual deficit of around 45,000 votes. Last year’s turnout was 73% on 2.6M votes. Low turnout always favours the Right. 😬

@britt nice

@edwiebe last I checked it’s quite hard to record directly from the streaming services as they are encrypted and/or there is no physical device to plug in to be able to do it easily.

Houses should really be called stuff collectors.
“Hey Bob, that’s a nice stuff collector you got. What’s the mortgage on that stuff collector.”
“Hey, Jane would really like to paint the inside of her stuff collector but the stuff is so collected that she can’t get to the walls to paint them.”

@kit my conclusion has become: people. Are. Lazy

Oooh ya! Almost forgot just one day to Valencian regional and municipal elections! Vá Compromís! I hope my voting package made it to Toronto and was accepted! Wonder if I’ll get a confirmation. 🤔#elecciones28m2023 #valencia #eleccionesmunicipales #cortes

It is probably just my Xennial age group but one of the worst things about all this media upheaval is that the industry successfully killed the idea of fair use and home recording. Sure, pirate copies are around, but it’s not ubiquitous like mom and dad’s VHS collection was. Incredible shows could disappear from public conscience not just because studios pull them, but because recording your own library became difficult if not verboten. I still have E.T. on VHS somewhere… https://www.wired.com/story/hbo-max-netflix-disney-plus-day-streaming-died/
