KLF’s performances in their 1991 heyday might be my favourite ever TOTP appearances, repeated on BBC4/Iplayer in the last few months.
I’m just trying not to think too much of when Anthea Turner described them as “looking like the Ku Klux Klan.”

Yeah, presumably it’s a dig at that awful Fuckoffee place that was called out for being utterly appalling recently.
In the one year I went to Glastonbury they had loads of these stands all over the place selling nuts and I kept reading it like “Chou Chou Nuts - Over you”.
Every time, I looked at this weird slogan, “Over you”, that was being used to promote the Chou Chou Nuts brand.
I remember asking people, what do you think it means? “Over me” how? Why would they say such a weird, vaguely sinister thing to sell their Chou Chou nuts? Nobody could ever give me a straight answer. It was literally years later that I thought back to it and realised it’s “nuts over you”.

Only been on this version of Outlook with this UI for at least 2 years I reckon (?) and I’ve finally spotted this link to only show unread emails
I remember there used to be a little node on the tree on the left that was ‘unread’ under Inbox and it was a bit annoying for me when it got removed.
Buh.

My mate tasted Capybara when he was in South America somewhere (presumably where Capybara are) and said it was very tasty.

I do not get this joke.
They’re not. Stringy and a bit tough. Plus they serve it with the head still on the body so you know you’re not being served rat. Which used to happen apparently.

UI/UX stuff like this is incredibly irksome, isn’t it? Not so much the fact that interfaces and workflows change, which is just inevitably as products evolve. But that there’s just a pointless logical anomaly to it. Even if that not-quite-a-tab toggle thing was deemed desirable, there’s no harm at all in it remaining in the tree on the left.

I think this is probably better, not least because it functions over subfolders whereas the old one was only in the Inbox, but it’s not clear. If the update had rolled out and I got a little thing saying “This has moved here!” then maybe. Probably that just wasn’t possible.
In the field of this stuff I basically rate this as more reasonable than the constant weird updates to Twitter, FB, iOS, Android etc where you just discover something’s been changed but you can’t even see it being remotely different in terms of use.

That the 5 second mini-trailer at the start of film trailers on YouTube exists because YouTube shows an ad for 5 seconds before it lets you skip it.
Did everyone know this already? Was it just me wondering why I was being advertised the trailer I had already specifically looked out to watch?
Don’t think so. It’s outside the YT advert algorithm. It’s literally a trailer of a trailer because they reckon attention spans are too short, AFAIK
