I made a five-hour documentary about competitive #Tetris players. It's out now. Behold! #CTWC

@mattshumer_ I'm curious to what extent the prompt explicitly referenced "Powers of Ten" and "Cosmos"? Truly impressive for a single prompt, but also interesting how strongly it mimics existing work.

For those still here, I've joined HAMBURGER BUSINESS REVIEW. It's a podcast examining social issues through the lens of McDonald's. Fun, smart, kinda weird. Listen anywhere you get your podcasts.

@danidoodles8 Way back when, I used to work at a place that had a Fresca vending machine. It had the normal like six buttons or whatever, but every button was Fresca. It was AMAZING. (Also I think it was 25 cents per can.)

Best of Five now has full subtitles in Spanish! (Along with Finnish and English.) More languages, including LatAm Spanish, coming soon. Huge thanks to @RetroCabeza for his hard work on this!

@CenturyLink Update: got a reply on Tuesday (after the post above), asking me to confirm my personal info. I did. It's now late on Thursday; customer service has said nothing. Literally nothing. Shameful.

[Chris Higgins @chrishiggins]

@CenturyLink I think y’all have an outage on your fiber network in Portland, Oregon. Any word on this?

[Chris Higgins @chrishiggins]

@CenturyLink Update: I sent the DM and no reply. It’s been 13 hours since the outage began.

[Chris Higgins @chrishiggins]

@CenturyLink Update: it's CenturyLink DNS. If I change my DNS server to 8.8.8.8 (Google DNS) everything's fine. Changing back to default CL servers, nothing.

[Chris Higgins @chrishiggins]

@shellisxena @CenturyLink @xtye_ I have the same problem. Changing my DNS servers to something other than CenturyLink (for example, Google DNS at 8.8.8.8) immediately fixed the problem.

@GaryTheGhoul @CenturyLink @darepdx I have the same problem. Changing my DNS servers to something other than CenturyLink (for example, Google DNS at 8.8.8.8) immediately fixed the problem.

@akamcfly_ Update: Episodes 1-3 now have Spanish (Spain) subtitles and the other episodes are coming soon. Work has also begun on a Spanish (Latin America) translation.
