- Untitled May 17, 2024Thinking of that time that Degas painted the actress Ellen Andree sitting and looking pensive in a cafe, and Monet saw Degas' painting and decided to find the same actress and get her to pose in the same cafe so he could do his own version.
- Untitled May 17, 2024Copyright claims often go too far, crushing free speech and not allowing for the way artists are influenced by, repurpose, and even coincidentally echo, other art.

pretty cool. But it makes a girl wonder why all the humans in the vid have to be represented with the mens’ bathroom symbol. After all, the history of computer development is rich with non-men type of people including Grace Hopper and Sally Floyd.

Excellent. I learned a couple of things from that I was not aware of, about the network work being done in France and England.
I actually used Arpanet for a bit back in the day. I have an ID with ARIN because I registered an IP range with them before ISP’s existed. And I can remember when you had to swear that you would NOT use a domain for commercial purposes or else it had to go through an extra layer of approval because the net was supposed to be used for not-for-profit or educational purposes only.
Al Gore’s not in it, must be fake.
