Yes, get yourself eclipse glasses, a pinhole projector, a floppy disk, digital camera or whatever allows you to observe the eclipse safely – no phenomenon is worth risking your eyesight over. However, the consensus is that you can watch the sun flares without protection during totality. The totality lasted 0 to 4 minutes depending on your location.

…and ignore one of the coolest things there is to see on the sky

A solar or lunar eclipse?

Is this by Inspirobot? Its most-upvoted quote on r/inspirobot uses the same image.

First sentence of my post, for this very reason – they own the franchise, after all. The law may also change the other way but that’s very unlikely to happen in the US within 50 years.

I wonder if they could develop a system of draconian DRM (only their own theatres with metal detectors, personalized online streams…) and mildly edit movies every few decades so that they can destroy the original and effectively renew copyright. The gaming industry’s always-online DRM makes nuking a release possible but copyright lasts for about 20 console generations (we’ve only had 8 so far!) so they don’t even have to do that.

I think that at least the sub-title “Episode IV: A New Hope” was added in that DVD release… Anyway, a “4K77” scan of a 1977 film reel distributed directly by the studio exists, it’s just noisy and needed color correction.

find an original film print and have it scanned

The 4K77 project did just that, scan and color correction to reverse fading, and effectively no other processing so they cannot claim copyright. Arguably, Harmy’s Despecialized Edition cannot either, even if the original becomes public domain, as it could be argued that their effort only served a technical purpose. I don’t think you can scan, upscale and denoise Steamboat Willie (Walt Disney, 1928) and claim copyright on that even if you do it by hand.

Interesting… Too bad a right-holder can do minor edits to their work and effectively extend copyright (which is already very long in my opinion) if they nuke the previous version. Lucas was surprisingly successful at that, and I think game studios or other creators could do that today too with their aggressive DRM tactics.

Thank you, great point!

Knowing the perils of wireless energy transfer, I’m glad this didn’t go through. Imagine having 2000 W ready to be delivered from anywhere in the walls to a nearby hairdryer, or the metal springs in an unfortunately-placed old-fashioned armchair.

This is what the BBC was trying to prevent

They know, and a full rewrite, including optimization and UI overhaul is in progress. It’s been taking almost a year at ths point.

I am sorry you are left out this fun holiday because of your community’s prejudices

Tom: How can I get to the toilet?

You: Can you speak Chinese?

Tom: Yes of course

You: 那我們說中文吧 “Then let’s speak in Chinese”

Tom: 好的，沒問題 “Okay, no prob”

I did Math HL and still got bored so I picked the affordable calculator on which I could play Solitaire, Tetris and Mario. CASIO calculators also had games and a friend sometimes lent me his CFX-9850+ (pictured) where I would code up Mastermind, TriPeaks and Snake in CASIO Basic, which was friendlier than TI-BASIC, as well as a manual image importing program. I later made a cable so I have them backed up to this day, I will publish them once I found the source.

Not very common? It is easier and cheaper to buy a 10-year-old used TI-84 Plus than a comparable CASIO.

I am still in the Czech Republic. I just did IB (mezinárodní maturita).

And people still have the audacity to say ViSuALLy iMpAiReD pEoPLe aRe jUsT 1% oF iNtErNeT uSeRs… Meanwhile I am enjoying a free 1 MB/day of cellular data on a prepaid card due to a provider’s billing glitch so I have my SIM in an old 2G Nokia and browse the web on Opera Mini with images disabled.

I believe in the curb cut effect so I try to follow accessibility guidelines wherever possible. I wonder when YT allows for visually impaired audio tracks so that people who only listen don’t miss important details conveyed viaually in video essays. I hate it when the narrator refers to a simple pie chart when they could have said the percentage out loud, especially if they speak redundantly elsewhere. Or when creators of obviously scripted videos don’t at least upload the script for better subtitles. Or when video annotations were removed instead of YT making at least the non-interactive ones work on mobile. Or when websites and apps restrict copying text… and all other DRM can go fuck itself, too.

Once they gave us faster processors and enabled ASM programming, they were objectively the superior option. I am still wondering if we ever get a programmable & graphing calculator with a a 128x64 reflective display, either a rechargeable Li-Ion cell or one AAA battery that lasts forever and does not make the unit terribly thick so that it fits comfortably in a pocket, and has USB-mini-B or C of course. I wrote Snake, Mastermind and TriPeaks for the pictured CASIO CFX-9850 PLUS and coding was a better experience than on TI. However, our course taught TI, there were no affordable second-hand CASIOs and I wanted ready-made ASM games like 2048, Mario and Tetris so I went with the TI-84 Plus for IB.

The programs I wrote are still somewhere on my hard drive and I will publish their source as text as well as a CA-124-friendly file at some point. They work on newer programmable monochrome 128x64 CASIOs too if you remove colors and adjust for the faster processor. Unfortunately, the lack of comments and single-letter variables mean that the code is a mess but I might have the reworked versions somewhere too.
