All live performance is better! However, I can't get to London easily. Seeing Ncuti Gatwa as Jack Worthing would be so fun!

This made me laugh:

4 Bavarian tourists visited Leavenworth. Hereโ€™s what they thought


"We are a group of journalists living and working in Austria, two of us were born in Munich, the capital of Bavaria. Here in Seattle this summer, we attended a summer school at the University of Washington about solutions journalism, a story approach that usually does not include beer tasting.

"Before we even landed, fellow travelers on the plane started to recommend a visit to the โ€œBavarian village up there.โ€ As journalists, we started our research: Was there a long-lost German community in the Cascades? An enclave, forgotten by its own ancestors? But it was far easier: The whole Bavarian theme was a marketing ploy."

When I was growing up we would regularly visit Leavenworth: sometimes on the way to summer Bible camp, sometimes on the way to a ski vacation. Many years later after having visited Germany a few times, I went back and found the whole place as comical as the above tourists did!

in reply to Muse

Hah that's funny! If only Germany had more than Bavarian culture...

I recently saw an amazing Navajo rug at the National Gallery of Art. It looks abstract at first, but it is a detailed representation of the Intel Pentium processor. Called "Replica of a Chip", it was created in 1994 by Marilou Schultz, a Navajo/Dinรฉ weaver and math teacher. Intel commissioned the weaving as a gift to the American Indian Science & Engineering Society. 1/6

@Gargron We had some in the 80ies, but they shut down due to low use. The most common customers were corporate couriers.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@gargron There used to be a bank with a drive through (it was mainly a marketing gimmick) at the south side of Trafalgar Square in London. In the 1950s maybe? Long gone by now of course.

in reply to NASA

image description: a picture of a new moon at night, though the camera settings allow you to see the full disk. The moon shines orange in earthshine with a bright yellow crescent at the bottom. A thin long band of clouds cross just under the disk's center, giving the impression of Saturn and its rings.
The hilly countryside spreads out below shrouded in mist. Everything is a dark blue. Tiny red and green and white/yellow lights peer out from the mist as evidence of human habitation.

@Muse - The only face I recognize in the video is Darcy C. (I think this was before she got married and got the "C" last name.)

The creator of Newgrounds has considered adding ActivityPub support to join the fediverse but is worried it would make their hosting fees untenable by โ€œserving files to millions of people on third party appsโ€œ. Can anyone with more knowledge on how this works help them?

newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/15375โ€ฆ

Having Newgrounds on the Fediverse would be incredible. Newgrounds has a huge art community, many features not available on any platform and has been around the longest (1999)
CC @dansup @Gargron @ruud

in reply to เผบNIXเผป

That seems like a misunderstanding of the infrastructure. Each fediverse server (at least ones powered by Mastodon) caches a copy of the media files to serve to their own users. The increase on bandwidth for the origin server is minimal, comparatively, since there's at most 20k servers, instead of millions of people.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

Would you agree that Newgrounds has more to worry about if it becomes an activitypub *client* (because if users are receiving remote posts they might have to pay for locally cached images) than if it serves *out* of newgrounds to other activitypub servers?
