Parasite (2019): good, lent itself surprisingly well to being watched in instalments across three evenings, definitely features abrupt tonal shifts.

When a speaker of a particular language is confronted with something they don't understand they will use another language as a stand in for the part they don't understand, such as an English speaker saying "it's all Greek to me". This process creates a directed acyclic graph of unintelligibility.

Making light of family deaths 

I roughly remember a webcomic I saw 10+ years ago. It went roughly as follows:

A: I remember my father's last words to me
A: "blublublublub"
B: …
A: He drowned.
--- flashback ---
Father: Now son, always remember:
Father: blublublublub
[ Father jumps into sea ]

But I can't for the life of me find it. Does it ring any bells?

I've been thinking a lot over the past year about the problems that the #ethicallicense movement is seeking to address. Here's a simple proposal for another possible legal mechanism, creating ethical employment contract provisions! #contractpatch

Just learned that the German term for protein (in general) is „Eiweiß“. So if you want to refer specifically to the protein of an egg, is it „Eieiweiß“?

Nice post from Georges about PipeWire. I got a live demo of him using Carla to route audio from a browser tab into a different browser tab the other day. Pretty cool! feaneron.com/2020/12/07/switch

Does anyone know a freelance documentation writer, ideally familiar with GNOME and the GNOME documentation tooling, who may be available for a short project refreshing the end-user documentation for Endless OS, contributing to the GNOME documentation in the process? Give me a shout if so!
