Will someone explain to this dog that stealing and hiding one of my walking shoes is actually counterproductive to getting me to walk her
I don’t know you and you don’t know me but somehow you posted this for me specifically and I am blessed beyond measure for it
me when one of my undergrads hates a professor and won't spill the tea
I'm too young to have seen this as a part of my childhood but I did watch it as a young adult, up until this scene, and walked away with a greater appreciation for how depressed and traumatized xennials are
I love it when a piece gets an expository video to introduce it, genuinely, especially when superglue was involved
Paul Conway has written extensively about this from the archivist perspective over the past 30 years and has a number that would fit this, and there are a couple oft-cited reports from CLIR I would recommend in terms of framework, including this once from 1999: www.clir.org/wp-content/u...

Anyone here have a favourite reading on the topic of digitisation as [(not)] preservation? If not, please share if you think some of your followers might....
Happy 4:34, I’m off work and unfortunately just remembered how long it’s been since I’ve done a BG3 playthrough
another drawback to all the disinfo floating around about AI causing outages over the weekend: it means you're not primed to see the connection between these two events
