Y u no Mamaleek
Null sweat, mate.
It’s the second time I hear of Piefed not showing links properly, though. First time was a Youtube playlist link in a post. Yall over there might want to inform the admins of the problems: the previous commenter already did so.
P.S. Though if I open this thread on piefed.social in the browser with the default UI, it shows the highlighted link with the correct address, so not sure it’s an issue.
You might mean the case of Florence Horner, kidnapped in 1948 by Frank La Salle. It’s apparently directly referenced in ‘Lolita’. However, Wikipedia mentions that Nabokov was already working on ‘Lolita’ in '47, under its original title ‘The Kingdom by the Sea’; and he had similar themes in previous works, going back to a poem and a novella from '28 and '39 respectively.
Importantly, ‘Lolita’ has a few brief allusions to Lewis Carroll, and multiple to Charlie Chaplin’s relationship with Lita Grey.
It’s linked in my comment to which you replied. Scroll down on there.
Also most famously in the scene where Connor is messing about with T2’s head or whatever, before a mirror. They had a stand-in for Schwarzenegger, but had Hamiltons on both sides of the ‘mirror’. But that scene might’ve been deleted or only in an extended edit, idk.
And iirc when Connor has the nuke dream, she sees herself on the playground, again via the power of having two of the twins.
Ah, I’ve missed the fact that the image is pretty low-res. My condolences for reading that blurry mess.
PSA: if you use Google to search by an image, it lets you select and copy the text. On Android it can be done by sharing to ‘Lens’, or going through the Google app. (Idk about iPhones.)
It’s very clear that Nabokov despised and mocked most of his protagonists, with only a couple exceptions. Humbert is a loser with nothing interesting about him.
Still some people somehow manage to interpret the book as a ‘defense’ of Humbert of sorts, or a fantasy. Seen this on Reddit.

Try looking through those listed on Alternative To. Not all of them are really YouTube players, though.
I just think that most UX designers share the UI design responsibility, so it’s not that distinct of a job.
Your initial comment above came off as hostile to UX designers, which is why I felt the need to reply. Afaiu UX design as a discipline, particularly in software, appeared around the nineties to early two-thousands, likely influenced by industrial design (namely Don Norman himself) — so it’s not quite an ‘emerging’ discipline, but it’s surely vague.
if those deciding the design are making it
This kinda depends. User stories document the typical goals and workflow of the users with the app, and thus should come from the target users or at least the client like a manager. The designer is not qualified to make the user stories since they don’t know the business domain, as it’s called. But they know how to organize the UI for any particular goals.
UI design existed for forty years at least. The problem, of course, is that few people understand what a designer actually does, unless they’ve met a really good designer.
By the way, @ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world, I brought up user stories in particular because they should be initially written or at least verbalized by either the target users or clients like managers. Neither designers nor programmers can know exactly what the target user’s needs are, or they may think they know but be mistaken — because they don’t have what’s called the domain knowledge, i.e. expertise of the target users.
Of course, another major tool in a designer’s workflow is testing with target users before release, including with rough mockups — so any misunderstanding of users’ goals and workflow can be caught in time.
For the context, I’m a dev who mostly does backend. But understanding design is interesting and helpful.
Ironically, tons of programmers also use Mac, because it has a rock-solid GUI on top of a Unix. The ‘pictograms’ don’t matter as much as the fact that Apple designers actually know design basics unlike MS, and spent ages polishing the UI.
Nice post to stir some shit, OP. 🍿
I’ve gotten a lot out of YouTube by leafing through the recommendations on videos that I liked and saving any promising ones to ‘watch later’ playlists by topic. I have a couple dozen of such playlists, each with multiple dozens of videos. Could live off these for a year at least.
Of course, as mentioned, this is the opposite of poisoning the data.
YouTube is actively blocking Invidious and other proxies and bots for the past couple years or so. Additionally, for some reason some Invidious instances consistently don’t work for me, while other ones consistently do, which probably indicates connectivity issues between me and them.
Frankly, if YouTube works for you directly, I’m gonna advise using it via NewPipe and various desktop apps, as Invidious instances could be easily overwhelmed, what with them being hosted by individual volunteers. Video traffic is heavy.
The whole StandupComedy subreddit has a hold on me like no TikTok could.
