  • [Watch Party] Escape from New York (1981), Monday 18th August, 8pm US EDT

    Jump

  • As @perishthethought@piefed.social said

    • prepare to watch the movie itself whatever way you can/want (your own physical media, locally stored file, whichever streaming service offers it in your area)
    • everyone starts the movie when the 'host' posts "press play now" on Mastodon
    • participants proceed to post about it on Mastodon, including in their posts the hashtag #MondayActionMovie (and sometimes also a hashtag with the name of the movie)

    For #MondayActionMovie, the rotating 'host' of the party (the person who chooses the movie) often includes a streaming link in their Mastodon announcement or in the event details in the watch party calendar (go down to the calendar, scroll calendar to the relevant date, then find and click on the event name; a popup will show more info on the event. E.g. a copy of the movie on YouTube https://youtu.be/xxeDmjgSS1I )

  • TV in the UK has a substantially different regulatory framework and environment to the US and some other countries.

    That's why even when Sky News (UK) was Murdoch-owned, it was a respected news source; it was the prestige loss leader he used to help get the rest of Sky regulator-approval. Compare to Sky News Australia; same name but full-on swivel-eyed Fox News-style bollocks.

    At least for now, I believe it's easier to keep this sort of thing in check (on TV; the papers, oof!) in the UK. But people have to stay vigilant and make sure regulators know folks are keeping an eye on both them and the likes of GB News.

  • I heard Trump abolished the penny. I wonder what's going to happen to all that old pocket change.

    By the by, here's a story about what happens when someone throws coins into a jet engine.

  • Thanks for explaining that, now I can eventually see the OP.

    I want more like the second picture by default (although I wish the tap would take me direct to the OP instead of to the reply and then I have to scroll up).

    I don't want to see a main feed full of replies I don't understand because there's no context and have to decide whether it's worth tapping and scrolling up dozens (hundreds?) of times a day to find out what it's about.

    I want by default to see the OP with replies underneath (perhaps the replies collapsed or collapsible). Then I can decide based on the OP, not guess by the reply, if I want to read through that thread or scroll past to the next.

    Maybe it's cuz I'm new and all the content is new. Once I'm in, perhaps I'll want to see unaccompanied replies. But for now, I want to see OPs first, then replies once I've read the OP.

  • Good idea. I wanted to search their Github Issues to see if they already have a request for this but then I realized I don't know the correct technical terms to describe this. "Show OP with replies below directly in timeline"? Or "feed"? Or "home page"? Whatever is the porper Mastodon term for what it shows me when I load the main page.

  • Unfortunately, it looks like Fedilab is a mobile app only.

    Also, I've installed it on Android and the default does not show the OP above with replies grouped below.

    Looking at its settings, maybe one might affect completely missing OPs, "Remote Conversations". I've enabled it and will see how it goes.

    I can't find any setting to make it show replies grouped below the OP.

  • The Sith however were not defeated on Endor.

    That's part of why I didn't carry on with Nu Star Wars after watching The Force Awakens.

    1. "Isn't this just... the same damned story as Star Wars?"
    2. "Doesn't this make everything in the original trilogy basically a waste of time?"

    Although perhaps there's a lesson in that... as forces that seemed defeated in 1865 are back again... yet again.
