I'm loathe to post adverts on here, but this one will probably amuse a few people so here goes. I like the fact that Chris Eubank was apparently baffled why people kept asking him about youth hostels for 18 years.

Jimmy Cauty's contribution to Dismaland is The Aftermath Dislocation Principle.

Amazing! The attention to detail is superb especially the lighting.



Jimmy Cauty is the artist who became half of KLF.

Prior to which he painted this popular Lord of the Rings work - my parents had it on the wall in the 70s.

Interesting piece of early 70s Japanese design:



The concept is that it's a second home close to work that you live in during the week, then you do back to your real home at the weekend.

I like that there's an air gap around each pod so you don't have to listen to your neighbours.

Good album that. Quite different to the earlier stuff, and I felt like a traitor liking it because I love E&TB with McCulloch at the helm. Fuck me he looks young in this video (according to the Wiki he must be about 24).

(The only thing I've changed recently is installed Flashblock, but that still ought to show the blocked videos with the option to unblock, and anyway they still aren't showing up even if I disable it.)
Same for me (using Firefox and flashblock), chrome seems to work fine though.

It's definitely Flashblock that's doing it, as disabling it in the Addons page cures the problem - but disabling it from the addon itself, or allowing Flash from this site, doesn't. It's only this website that I've noticed any problems on. Bit of a pain, tbh.

As I noted this website’s YouTube (+ Vimeo) implementation rely on Flash. On their sites today and on any site that uses their recommended code/HTML you get a HTML player, have for quite a while. The Safari extension I use, Clicktoplugin, recognises and replaces the Flash plugin for YouTube. It does not do it for Vimeo as Vimeo switched to HTML playback a while ago, so there is no need for it.

Basically this site’s media player plugins/extensions are out of date. I did see one the other day that would fix this, although only for new posts, as it uses a different syntax. It also supports a large number of different sources.
