[00:00:03] Have you heard of it [00:00:08] Heathers 🤌 [00:00:12] Yessss [00:00:24] I went to see it in NYC some months ago with my bestie [00:00:29] For her birthday [00:00:30] !! [00:00:37] I bet that was awesome!! [00:00:40] Best birthday present I’ve given in my life I think [00:00:42] IT WAS [00:00:55] (and you benefited from the gift also, which is even better) [00:00:58] we got photos with the cast, they were so approchablw [00:01:03] Of course [00:01:04] !!! [00:01:14] Hello fellow stage door enthusiast [00:01:14] My mom also went with us, so I bought 3 tickets, all had a blast [00:01:31] Ahhh what an excellent time!! [00:01:32] My friend had actually already seen Heathwrs [00:01:37] Few months before [00:01:38] Which I knew [00:01:57] But this time we went together and she loved it even more because she could see the details she missed [00:03:17] Yes exactly!! And especially if you see different tours/productions? I've seen the jukebox musical Rock of Ages I think... 3 times? Broadway, West End, touring, and it was such a blast every time because of the little flair each cast adds!! [00:06:01] God, I love the Casey-Kuhoo charactization [00:06:12] I have not done that alas [00:06:25] Girlfail Veronica [00:06:55] Oh also we went Goodwill cosplaying JD and Veronica 💅 [00:08:39] goes onto play Heathers soundtrack [00:09:10] Stoppppp this is SO FUN [00:09:17] I wish I could send photos but uh [00:09:26] No you're fine dheksjd [00:09:37] Skye would get me [00:09:52] Uuuuh come to NYC and find me at an in person meetup and I’ll show you LOL [00:10:03] (No but in person wiki meets are legit so much fun) [00:10:54] [1/3] (as is the empress' right) [00:10:54] [2/3] Absolutely!! Man I want to do an NYC trip so bad, it's been close to.... 20 years since I've been 😭 Irl friend meetups SLAP [00:10:54] [3/3] I went to Australia with an online friend (not wiki tho) and it was a blast!! [00:11:12] Wikimedia NYC folks are actually awesome [00:11:30] Some of them have been wikiing longer than ive been alive and i can still vibe with them so easilt [00:11:33] Also [00:11:36] Wiki. Picnic [00:12:05] I am so so sad I couldn’t make Wikipedia Day 2026 this year 💔 [00:12:15] The 25th anniversary even more so!! [00:12:21] God, that stupid snow storm [00:12:56] Hi Pet [00:13:00] We need a group of Mirahezeans who are willing to doxx themselves and share their locations in some centralize table to make meetups easier lol. [00:13:28] I have never heard of Wikipedia Day! That sounds so fun?? [00:13:32] Yes, I don’t want to remain one of two mirahezeians to meet another in the current decade [00:13:37] (Which, to my knowledge, I am) [00:13:46] It is [00:14:03] My first meetup was a Wikipedia day [00:14:07] I'm in the Southeast USA 👁️ [00:14:24] You may have one near to you, I’m not sure [00:14:38] I’m lucky that my local group is one of two full chapters in the USA [00:14:42] The other being DC [00:15:01] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Day [00:15:03] I know where some volunteers live from publicly available information but am not sure whether they're willing to talk about it in a server of 10,000. [00:15:07] Chapters.... I had no idea this was a thing. I need to investigate!! [00:15:15] True.. [00:15:21] The US is weird [00:15:33] Since WMF is based here, there is no Wikimedia USA [00:15:33] Oh gosh yeah I think I've said my city in the Fandom server actually 😂 [00:15:43] Usually, chapters are national [00:15:55] Wikimedia Brazil, Wikimedia UK, France, etc [00:16:38] But the US is sprinkled with user groups who do meets [00:16:58] I remember during WikiConNA, I met someone who I think was trying to reform the Chicago region group [00:17:26] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Chapters [00:17:27] [1/2] I loved Chicago when I went, augh [00:17:27] [2/2] I want to meet cool wikians in my area 🥺 [00:17:38] Wrong page [00:17:40] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_chapters [00:18:12] Acting like I'm not looking at every link and expanding my knowledge repository like any self-respecting nd [00:18:23] Wikipedia did an event relatively close to me, some country music thing? [00:18:25] Thank u?! [00:18:42] That's so neat 👀 [00:19:07] Living where I live, I grew up on country music, though it's mostly kpop now [00:19:38] I may know the event you’re referring to but won’t guess since that gives away your region [00:20:06] north carolina [00:20:20] Mm, maybe not [00:20:26] [1/2] (headed home now so responses may be slow) [00:20:26] [2/2] Hello fellow usa southeastern conference wikian [00:20:44] WMNYC gets involved with events around the countries so I get some notifications about them [00:20:50] Was it a WikiCurious [00:21:04] Drive safe, phone down (if you’re driving) [00:23:04] It was a WikiCurious yeah. [00:23:14] But like, yeah if any trusty Miraheze community members are in NYC and would be otherwises interested in visiting a WikiNYC event if we have one, I’d be down to chat [00:23:28] Those are neat, I’ve been to a few but it’s been too long [00:23:45] I met SuperHamster at one, that was cool. I also got stickers and hats [00:24:00] Also a free novel [00:29:51] [1/3] Walking! But in a car heavy area 😤 [00:29:51] [2/3] I can contribute twenty american dollars to your wikinyc event [00:29:51] [3/3] Supporting the arts!! Er... Wikis!!! [00:29:53] https://tenor.com/view/the-amazing-digital-circus-digital-circus-digital-circus-pomni-pomni-the-amazing-digital-circus-pomni-gif-14218471206596580283 [00:31:04] Both are very cool [00:31:25] film is much cooler than movie [00:31:26] WikiNYC gets money from WMF and the guy who made Craigslist and me lmao [00:33:51] Soon, they will be unstoppable,,, [00:34:11] Fun fact: the President of WMNYC’s day job is editing Wikipedia [00:34:32] (Ref: [[w:Wikipedian in Residence]]) [00:34:32] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedian_in_Residence [00:34:33] [00:35:36] He’s a very cool guy [00:36:03] @janebuzjane do you remember the first musical you ever saw [00:43:47] I mean haven't we all already doxxed ourselves to NA and Rhinos [00:44:54] ok yeah true lol [00:45:01] skill issue imo [00:45:14] frfr [00:45:27] is this a language barrier thing or a skill issue thing [00:50:16] Sound of Music!! We had the vhs tapes [00:50:45] If we're talking live... Let me think [00:54:52] it's the neurospicy [00:55:19] [1/3] Okay according to my parents the live one was also sound of music lol [00:55:19] [2/3] Apparently I was a big fan [00:55:19] [3/3] It was either that or Oklahoma! (They can't remember but it was the same year) [00:55:53] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_processing_disorder [00:57:17] aww that sounds not fun [00:57:33] tbh I never understood what was going on in any musical other than hamilton [00:58:13] but that's probably more of a story thing than a processing thing [01:01:44] That is the one thing that bugs me about live movies/films is that they don't have captions so I feel like I miss a lot? [01:07:20] Apparently it's something like in older films since people were more used to theatre the actors were trained to speak loudly and clearly, whereas these days actors are trained to behave in a more natural way (which unfortunately comes with making them more difficult to understand) [01:08:01] anyway I watched too many anime and now instinctively enable subtitles on everything [01:13:20] [1/2] Yeah 😭 I got told I was too musical theater to ever consider trying to have a career in film ("performative" vs "naturalistic") [01:13:20] [2/2] Subtitles and captions ftw 😈 [01:15:20] Ha! I’ve only seen the movie for The Sound of Music, but I liked it a lot [01:15:48] My first live(?) musical was the original cast of [[w:Suffs (musical)]] [01:15:48] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffs_(musical) [01:15:49] [01:23:14] aside of actors from newer generations speaking softer for some reason [01:24:13] if they mix sound for theaters and 7.1 sound systems and you have normal TV speakers, or they have stuff like dynamic range [01:24:54] it's really complicated so that's why streaming services (and some tvs) have an option to enhance speech [01:25:56] if they don't, you can manually boost midrange (voice usually falls here) and lower bass (gunshots, explosions) if you can EQ [01:53:44] I have never heard of this but it looks amazing!! Going to try and find it on youtube! 👀🤌 [01:54:18] Fascinating 👀👀 I wish my tv had an eq option! [01:54:56] The soundtrack is on Spotify [02:29:15] The weird soft speech thing in modern movies weird me turn [02:29:34] Why does everyone talk like they don’t want a person in the other room to hear them [02:33:12] Not even the actors hear themselves [02:34:08] [1/2] > “He speaks so quietly that I cannot hear him when I am standing next to him. And then you play the film back and it’s there; it’s there somehow. And somehow I’m yelling, and you still can’t hear me.” [02:34:08] [2/2] [02:35:10] Amazing [03:01:34] [1/2] I honestly like this new MEdge theme, it is quite blueish. [03:01:34] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1489822208661655664/image.png?ex=69d1d08e&is=69d07f0e&hm=d368f793f4f83a60af682d40d85674c72d11ec98f8095afc98c77e2f3f2e04b2& [03:04:08] I think it needs to be 3% more blue [03:05:06] Indeed. [03:31:38] [1/2] Thoughts on this YouTube video?: [03:31:38] [2/2] https://youtu.be/xFKSKjyBVDU?si=FdSYfEwe7Ghzuvqo [05:38:11] A steward should check Tali if he did go back in time and killed the one famous US president in history... [05:38:22] You know who [05:40:55] [1/2] @Discord Moderators this may, or may not need a deletion (pretty sure this user got banned off mh if my brain serves right) [05:40:55] [2/2] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1001373934874284112/1252234712886542379 [08:01:52] yea, went ahead and cleared that one out for good measure [09:02:43] huge nothing burger [09:24:38] [1/2] google have over doubled (2 -> 5) the storage for their mid tier plan with no price hike [09:24:38] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1489918610775347220/image.png?ex=69d22a56&is=69d0d8d6&hm=4afb71b0133dbefadb35a9be18435d0dfb71ba603c06c260cc793d707c961f3f& [09:54:27] good [13:05:47] [1/2] shes on cam look [13:05:48] [2/2] discord.com/invite/naughtycams [13:05:48] @naser09235 No invite links. [16:28:05] I got that too [16:29:42] maybe the real storage crisis was the friends we made along the way [16:35:49] I got it as a student though [16:35:54] Plus when they took over Nest [16:36:00] So I'm paying really cheap too [16:36:17] I will just downgrade when it goes back to full price to plus instead of pro [16:37:06] me too technically [16:37:14] (free .edu email generator) [16:37:23] i got 16 months free or something [16:37:31] runs out in september 😢 [16:41:20] amazon also love giving away student discounts without verifying student status [17:06:41] I used my actual student email [17:06:47] October for me [18:13:46] me when I just "borrow" the nonprofit stuff [18:14:00] google are surprisingly nice to nonprofits compared to microslop [18:14:40] microslop make it a ridiculous pain in the ass to get access whereas google don't confuse the shit out of you trying to get access to the stuff [18:54:20] That's been pretty universally our experience between the two vendors as well [19:25:58] There's always a catch tho, Google is the world's biggest advertiser, don't assume they're doing you a favour giving you free/reduced price access to something. [19:26:02] If the product is free, you're the product [19:26:31] You're data is invariably being used for whatever Google sees fit when they "give" you something for free [19:53:40] Given my email, calendar and most of my files are open to them, I assume they have enough data by now [21:02:54] I love when I’m trying to reverse image search something and 90% of the results is one Reddit thread ai translates into a dozen languages [22:18:44] You can disable it if I recall correctly.
