My opinions change weekly, much like my socks. I play #Ingress. Live in #London, #UK. Much more of a content consumer than creator. Pronouns "Who" and "Why" sum me up quite succinctly.

Might be good to watch an ISCVE Lecture on the topic of #Auracast that is comprehensive & honest, and covers both pros and cons very well. The relevant piece starts at 52:30 and ends at 1:43.

I speak with zero knowledge of this, but had always assumed this was a case of "Have costumes, use costumes.".

As soon as the velvet looks more Velveeta, we'll get something new.

It's your feed, so your rules, so block anyone or thing that you think might offend.

I tend to give the benefit of doubt first, and only block if something is directly offensive to me - passed misdemeanours shouldn't automatically rule out fruitful future posts. All on a sliding scale though.

In much the same way that I never seem to be any bigger once I've had a ride on an escalator. Unless it's been a real sexy escalator!

Dunno about "No reaction" for the UK. My reaction is usually "Whys there grammar betterer than my?".

Optimist: The cup is half full.

Pessimist: The cup is half empty.

Big Tech: We’ve emptied the cup but are excited to offer a subscription-based cup-filling experience that could eventually deliver up to 1/3 of the original cup content.

As in ASL and BSL, and about me personally, then no I don't, but I really should learn some.

If you are asking about sign language in general then yes, sign language, like body language is read.

I fear even my comprehension of body language is poor, judging by some interactions in pubs.

The point! Miscomprehend a line in a 'book' and you can re-read the line, or paragraph, or page, or ...

Miscomprehend something in an audiobook and the faff of going back is often too much bother.
