   Many years ago, after I saw Grave of the Fireflies for the first and only time, I looked up the historical fate of the Japanese warship Seita's father was the Captain of.

   It will likely not surprise you to hear that the ship had already been sunk before the date of the start of Grave of the Fireflies. I'm sure that was a deliberate choice (and it resonates with other aspects of the film).

   So it was only a hundred years ago - 1924 - when someone figured out the Sun, and all the rest of the stars, were made mostly of hydrogen with some helium. All the other elements were in trace amounts.

   She was a student at Harvard named Cecilia Payne.

   At the time the consensus was stars were made up of pretty much what Earth was made of.

   It took 4 more years for a man to confirm the discovery before it was widely accepted, with him as discoverer.

   It's all hers now.

   ihatemusic message board is a place that I used to frequent and even post on. I didn’t realize that it still existed until tonight but it looks mighty dead. There were many great discussions there about improvisation and the art of.

   It almost seems abandoned..

   I could need a bit of help regarding an old US movie which I cannot remember the title of.

   It is a about a couple, probably set in the 1950s and black and white, which goes on their honeymoon in the US with a caravan. Everything goes wrong and I remember that at one point, the caravan comes off from the car and roles down a hill, I think with the bride still inside.

   Hint: I don't think it's this movie:

   Thanks!

   @lashman yeep. Using them for my business e-mail saves me having to juggle PGP keys, but they're a major platform subject to Swiss and Interpol law enforcement requests. This is not an appropriate platform for activism or, really, any kind of privacy you need to be sure of.

   It's a shame running diy secure email servers is such a pain.

   The challenge is that the baseline features of activitypub are essentially impossible to build an effective client off of.

   It's not just they are defining their own interfaces, it is that they _have_ to define their own interfaces if they want to be even reasonably effective at their chosen tasks at scale because of the limitations on how collections can be dereferenced

   There are ways around this with FEPs and such, but it's not in the protocol
