In the future you can just disable "automatically parse URLs" for NWS mp4s and they won't embed, you won't have to change the file extension or anything like that

Nice. Thanks. Is the Awful code base reasonable? How hard is it to make (seemingly) small changes?

Interestingly, text-to-speech capitalized “awful” in the previous paragraph. It doesn’t get poo poo else right, but somehow it knew that was a proper noun.

From this very thread, at least a copy of it:

Sagebrush posted:

there's a good quote (maybe in this thread!) from a primate researcher who's like

"The main difference between the primates is how they handle a screwdriver you accidentally leave in their enclosure.

A gorilla will look at the screwdriver, sniff it, pick it up, put it back down and ignore it from then on.

A chimpanzee will pick up the screwdriver, turn it over, play with it a bit, then use it to murder a small animal or another chimp.

An orangutan will pointedly ignore the screwdriver until it thinks you aren't watching, then pick it up and hide it in a secret location, and later use it to build a spaceship to return to its home planet."

And/or

Dr. Red Ranger posted:

So the ancient SA lore goes, once a zookeeper liked to describe the temperament of the various great apes at his zoo with the humble screwdriver. If a screwdriver was inadvertently dropped into the gorilla paddock by a workman, the animals would be reasonably expected to investigate the tool, and eventually become bored. Were said screwdriver left in the chimpanzee pen overnight, by morning there would be no more live chimpanzees as the screwdriver would be immediately recognized as an implement of murder. However, should the screwdriver be left with the humble, sagely orangutans, by morning there would also be none left. Not because they had killed each other, but because they would use it to build a rocket out of the various toys and structures around them and escape to the moon.

goddamn americans wearing shoes around the house, your floors have to be dirty as gently caress

Sagebrush posted:

"oh, come in, it's so good to see you!"

you step just inside the door, trying to keep your feet on the mat. "can i take your coat?" you shrug it off and reach down to begin untying your shoes. "oh no please you don't have to take your shoes off." you pause, a bit confused, and say it's no problem, but they insist. "no, really, leave them on, we all do. come on in!" awkwardly, you slide the shoe back on and gingerly take a step inside. it feels rude. something crackles underfoot. you take a few more steps and with each one you feel something grinding into the scuffed hardwood floors. the baby comes crawling around the corner, his hands black with accumulated grit. the corners of the room are vignetted with years of unidentifiable crud. you walk up to the table and your friend swings around an extra chair. it rolls with a crunching noise as if it's on a shuffleboard court. the children upstairs realize you've arrived and start running down the hall. it sounds like someone refinishing a picnic table. you wonder if your shoes might actually be cleaner than the floors. welcome to america

I’ve never worn shoes in the house or know anyone who has, but even so my friend’s wife insists, each time we come over, that we take our shoes off and apologizes profusely each time for the request, despite telling her multiple times that ‘yeah we do that too’.

Exploration is ill-advised.
When I lived in the country it was pretty normal to take your shoes off inside, for fairly obvious reasons that they're usually expected to be covered in dirt. In the city, not so much.

Things I've gleaned about Australia from SA:

1. Don't take off your shoes or don't wear shoes. (Because spiders, snakes.)

2. Don't sit on the toilet. Better to hover over it. (See above.)

3. Don't stand under trees you don't recognize the species of. (Spiders, snakes, caustic tree juice, stinging leaves, falling nuts.)

4. Don't dawdle near murky water, but I'm used to that one on account of the alligators.

5. Everything is half a second away from exploding into flames. Trees, wildlife, tradie utes.

6. If a man wearing heavy boots, shorts, and a florescent shirt punches you out of nowhere, chill. It's how they say hello.

7. Drive on the left or, you know, whatever.

8. Some of the wild animals are cuddly, said the man with seven fingers in total.
