Poleg same sezone pa je za namene varčevanja potrebno upoštevati tudi različne časovne bloke, energetsko učinkovitost naprav, presežke moči oziroma informacijo o tem, koliko naprav deluje hkrati. Kako smo potrošniki kot kupci električne energije zaščiteni pred neustreznimi praksami ponudnikov? Kako učinkovito varčevati z energijo? O tem v torkovem Svetovalnem servisu z Boštjanom Okornom iz Zveze potrošnikov Slovenije. Projekt sofinancira Evropska unija v okviru sporazuma o dodelitvi sredstev št. 101196292.

V jeziku se skrivajo majhne čarovnije, ki jim pravimofrazemi. To so besedne zveze, ki se delajo čisto običajne, a v resnici pomenijo nekaj čisto drugega, kot bi človek pričakoval. Kot majhni škrati med besedami — če jih razumeš, ti pomežiknejo. Zato danes odgrnimo tančico nad enim izmed njih.Vir: fran.si :Janez Keber: Slovar slovenskih frazemov, slike: Artistly, bere Nataša Holy

Lees: Ef 6:10-20.Fokus: Ef 6:11,12.Raak bewus van die duiwel se metodes en staan hom teen met die waarheid as gordel in Christus. ·       Vereistes vir gelowiges om in groepsverband suksesvol te kan funksioneer: (1) eensgesind wees, (2) gesamentlike doel hê, (3) goeie kommunikasiesisteem hê, (4) en gesamentlike doel moet volgens God se wil wees – dan sal niks onmoontlik wees wat ons van plan is om te doen nie (Gen 11:6,7). ·       Die duiwel het verskillende metodes (methodeia) om die kommunikasie tussen gelowiges te ontwrig wat veroorsaak dat hulle uitmekaar spat. ·       Metodes van die duiwel: a. Laat ons dink mense is ons vyand. b. Gebruik ons om aan mekaar boodskappe te stuur dat jy waardeloos, ‘n nikswerd, ‘n mislukking, ‘n fout, ens is. ·       Elke dag antwoord ons die vrae: Wie is ek en wie is ander mense? Die duiwel wil graag hierdie vrae vir jou beantwoord en hy sal altyd ‘n boodskap oordra dat jy of ander mense is waardeloos, mislukkings, nikswerd, onbelangrik, ens. ·       God sê vir jou as jy glo in Jesus Christus: Jy is vir My kosbaar, so kosbaar soos die lewe van My Seun, Ek is lief vir jou, Ek gee vir jou om, jy kan nooit ‘n mislukking wees nie want My Seun se kruisoffer was nie ‘n mislukking toe Hy vir jou betaal het nie. Staan op die waarheid in Christus!  Vir nadenke en gesprek by selgroepe en huisgodsdiens:·       Wat ontbreek in ons gemeente, jou selgroep, jou gesin, jou huwelik, om suksesvol te kan funksioneer? ·       Op watter maniere het die duiwel al die kommunikasie tussen jou en medegelowiges ontwrig wat veroorsaak het dat julle uitmekaar gespat het? ·       Hoe het die duiwel jou al gebruik om die identiteit van ‘n medegelowige aan te tas? Hoe het jy al toegelaat dat die duiwel jou identiteit aantas? ·       Wat is ons wapen wanneer die duiwel ons identiteit probeer bepaal?

Send a textJesaja  43:18-21 Maar moenie net aan die vroeëre dinge dink en by die verlede stilstaan nie. Kyk, Ek gaan iets nuuts doen, dit staan op die punt om te gebeur, julle kan dit al sien kom; Ek maak in die woestyn 'n pad, Ek laat in die droë wêreld riviere ontspring. Die wilde diere sal My vereer, die jakkalse en die volstruise, omdat Ek water gee in die woestyn, riviere in die droë wêreld om my volk, my uitverkore volk, se dors te les. Dit is die volk wat Ek vir My geskep het, en wat my lof sal verkondig. Dis so hartseer om te sien hoe mense met soveel potensiaal, teruggehou word deur boeie; boeie van spyt en boeie van hul verlede. Hulle moet oppas dat hulle nie hulle verlede toelaat om hul lewens te vernietig nie. As jy om jou kyk, sien jy dat baie mense in daardie strik trap.Watter nare stories uit jou verlede gee jy die duiwel toestemming om oor en oor in jou oor te fluister? Vir party mense het die lewe hulle geleer om dié leuen te glo dat hulle eenvoudig nie goedgenoeg is nie. Vir ander mense spook vorige mislukkings by hulle.Dis selfs pynlik om te erken dat die verlede so deel van ons lewens is, dat ons nie 'n toekoms daarsonder kan voorstel nie.As enige van hierdie dinge oor die verlede jou laat nadink, het ek vandag wonderlike goeie nuus vir jou. Dit kom van God self, waar Hy met sy volk, Israel, praat, toe hulle wanhopig en moedeloos was:Jesaja 43:18-21 Maar moenie net aan die vroeëre dinge dink en by die verlede stilstaan nie. Kyk, Ek gaan iets nuuts doen, dit staan op die punt om te gebeur, julle kan dit al sien kom; Ek maak in die woestyn 'n pad, Ek laat in die droë wêreld riviere ontspring. Die wilde diere sal My vereer, die jakkalse en die volstruise, omdat Ek water gee in die woestyn, riviere in die droë wêreld om my volk, my uitverkore volk, se dors te les. Dit is die volk wat Ek vir My geskep het, en wat my lof sal verkondig.Ja, ons weet almal jy kan die verlede nie verander nie. Maar God wil jou toekoms verander! Hy roep jou om nie in gister se mislukkings te leef nie, maar om vorentoe te beweeg in dít wat Hy op die punt staan om te doen.Moet dus nie die hele tyd terugdink aan wat in die verlede verkeerd geloop het nie, want Hy sê: Ek gaan iets nuuts doen, dit staan op die punt om te gebeur!Dis God se Woord.

Luister hier na die klankopname of op die potgooi-platform van jou keuse of lees die blog-inskrywing hier onder. . . Na-leef gedagte: As-Woensdag — 'n off-beat ritueel deur Pieter Roeloffse “Jesus is an alternative to the dominant ways of the world,  not a supplement to them.”  Eugene Peterson Elke jaar doen die kerk iets vreemd. Ons neem die oorblyfsels van verlede jaar se Palmsondag — die takke waarmee ons “Hosanna!” gesing het — en ons verbrand dit. Die takke wat eens tekens van oorwinning en hoop was, word as. En met daardie as begin ons Lydenstyd. Dit is nie toevallig nie. Dit is teologies briljant. Die ironie van die skare Op Palmsondag stap Jesus Jerusalem binne. Die skare waai palmtakke. Hulle roep “Hosanna! “Prys die Seun van Dawid! Loof Hom wat in die Naam van die Here kom!” (Matt 21:1-11, Mark. 11:1-11; Luk. 19:28-38; Joh. 12:12-19) Hulle verwag 'n Messias wat hul vyande sal oorwin, die regte mag sal herstel, die regte koninkryk sal vestig. 'n Paar dae later is daar weer 'n skare. En hulle roep: “Kruisig Hom! Kruisig Hom.” (Matt 27:15-26, Mark. 15:6-15; Luk. 23:13-25; Joh. 18:39 – 19:16)  Dieselfde stad. Dieselfde fees. Waarskynlik meeste van dieselfde mense. Wat het verander? Jesus het nie by hulle script ingepas nie. Hy het nie mag oorgeneem soos hulle verwag het nie. Hy het nie Rome omver gewerp soos hulle verwag het nie. Hy het nie die soort oorwinning gebring wat hulle wou hê nie. En toe Hy nie inpas by hul verwagtinge nie, draai die skare. Ons is nader aan die skare as wat ons dink. As-Woensdag begin met “Onthou jy is stof” en 'n as-kruis merk op jou voorkop of pols. Hoekom? Omdat ons ook palmtakke dra — ons eie verwagtinge het van hoe God moet werk; hoe verlossing moet lyk. Ons eie planne van die mooi en goeie lewe het. Ons juig maklik vir 'n Jesus wat óns drome bevestig. Maar 'n Jesus wat selfopoffering vra? 'n Koning wat op 'n donkie ry? 'n God wat alle mense liefhet? 'n Messias wat leer en leef “sterf van jou ekkigheid dan kom daar nuwe lewe”? Dis net té anders, té vreemd, té ongemaklik. Die as van Palmsondag-takke herinner ons: selfs ons aanbidding kan soms besoedel wees (vgl. Miga 6:6-8; Amos 5:21-24). 'n Heilige onderbreking Wanneer die palmtakke verbrand word, word triomf in stof verander. Dit nooi ons: Moenie hoop op jou eie namaaksel van God en jou eie weergawe van oorwinning nie. As-Woensdag help ons om eerlik te word oor iets diep in ons harte — ons wil graag hê God moet ons idees, oortuigings en storie versterk — nie dit herskryf nie. Maar Jesus kom nie om ons storie te verbeter nie. Hy kom om 'n ander een te gee: 'n Storie waar die eerste laaste is. Waar mag lyk soos diens. Waar oorwinning deur selfopoffering kom. Waar lewe deur die dood breek. Wanneer die as op ons voorkop in die vorm van 'n kruis geteken word, hou dit Palmsondag en Goeie Vrydag saam. Dit sê: Moenie te vinnig juig nie. Moenie te vinnig veroordeel nie. Moenie dink jy staan buite die skare nie. Dit nooi ons om ons afhanklikheid te erken. Te erken dat God en Sy manier anders is as wat ons graag sou verkies. Te onthou dat God en Sy anderster manier verlossing, vryheid, lewe gee — vir alles en almal! As-Woensdag vra nie: Is jy opgewonde oor Jesus? nie. Dit vra: Sal jy Hom volg wanneer Hy nie in jou verwagtinge pas nie? Sal jy Hom vertrou wanneer Hy nie jou vyande veroordeel nie? Sal jy leer om 'n ander soort oorwinning lief te hê? Van palmtak tot as — van triomf tot waarheid — van skare tot dissipel Mag hierdie As-Woensdag en Lydenstyd ons help om nie net mense te wees wat “Hosanna!” roep wanneer dit maklik is nie, maar mense wat gevorm word deur die kruis. Na-leef teks: “22Die Jode vra wondertekens en die Grieke soek wysheid, 23maar ons verkondig Christus wat gekruisig is. Vir die Jode is dit ‘n aanstoot en vir die ander is dit onsin,  24maar vir dié wat deur God geroep is, Jode sowel as Grieke, is Christus die krag van God en die wysheid van God. 25Wat vir die wêreld die onsin van God is, is groter wysheid as die wysheid van mense, en wat vir die wêreld die swakheid van God is, is groter krag as die krag van mense.” 1 Korintiërs 1:22-25 Na-leef vrae Kan jy dit in jouself raaksien hoe jy soms Jesus en Sy weg, soos die skare, wil verander om by jou agenda en idees in te pas? Watter deel van Jesus se “Neem jou kruis op en volg my.” Is vir jou moeilik? Hoe sal jy dit eerlik in 'n kaalvoet-gebed verwoord?

As dit nie so was nie, sou Ek nie vir julle gesê het Ek gaan om vir julle plek gereed te maak nie. En as Ek gegaan het en vir julle plek gereed gemaak het, kom Ek terug en sal julle na My toe neem, sodat julle ook kan wees waar Ek is. Reünies is so ongelooflik spesiaal. Familie-reünies. Klas-reünies. Dis die geleenthede waar jy die kans kry om met mense met wie jy oor die jare 'n diep band ontwikkel het, weer te sien.Vir diegene van Chinese afkoms, is die Chinese Nuwejaar so 'n tyd. Families reis lang afstande om bymekaar te kom en die belangrikste maaltyd van die jaar te deel.Ek weet dat wanneer ek en die manne met wie ek amper vyftig jaar gelede as weermagsoffisiere opgelei is, bymekaarkom, is daar ‘n wonderlike diep, familieband. Ons voel asof ons bestem is om saam te wees.En met my hele hart, kan ek sê: ons is ook gemaak om een met God te wees. Hy verlang na ons. Hy het Jesus gestuur om aan die kruis te sterf sodat ons sondes vergewe kan word wanneer ons in Hom glo. Maar Jesus het die dood oorwin; Hy het opgestaan om vir ons 'n nuwe lewe te bring. ‘n Lewe van vryheid, van diep innerlike vrede en van die oorwinning oor die sonde wat ons lewens plunder.En moenie jou misgis nie, Hy kom terug ... om die perfekte reünie te vier. Jesus het net voordat Hy gekruisig is, aan sy dissipels gesê:Johannes 14:1-3 “Julle moet nie ontsteld wees nie. Glo in God; glo ook in My. In die huis van my Vader is daar baie woonplek. As dit nie so was nie, sou Ek nie vir julle gesê het Ek gaan om vir julle plek gereed te maak nie. En as Ek gegaan het en vir julle plek gereed gemaak het, kom Ek terug en sal julle na My toe neem, sodat julle ook kan wees waar Ek is.Vertrou Hom. Ek kom terug en sal julle na My toe neem.

Lees: Spreuke 10: 22-32. Fokus: Spreuke 10: 24. Hoe om op God se spesifieke beloftes te wag. ·       In ‘n verhouding met God deur Christus, plaas die Heilige Gees baie keer sy wil as ‘n begeerte of droom in ons harte.  ·       Beweeg van geloof tot verwagting (met dade agter jou geloof), dan sal die Heilige Gees jou bonatuurlik neem tot vervulling van sy spesifieke beloftes aan jou.  Vir nadenke en gesprek by selgroepe en huisgodsdiens:·       Gee ‘n beskrywing van die begeertes wat God belowe om te vervul. ·       Hoe kom spesifieke beloftes van God vir jou lewe tot stand? ·       Wat is die verskil tussen glo en verwag? ·       Wat is die regte manier om op God se spesifieke beloftes te wag?

deur Pieter Roeloffse Luister hier na die klankopname of op die potgooi-platform van jou keuse. . . As kind, onthou ek, was daar 'n liedjie wat dikwels gespeel is: “My nooi is in 'n nartjie, my ouma is in kaneel, daar's iemand…iemand in anys – daar's 'n vrou in elke geur.” Hierdie geur-geheue-ervarings roep sekerlik 'n hele karakter, belewenis en emosie by die skrywer op. André se gedagtes oor die antieke kontoerlyn van verhouding, met die klem op “God is 'n verhoudingswese” [ luister of kyk die preek hier as jy dit misgeloop het ] my laat wonder oor al die verhoudings deur die loop van my lewe. Oor my geur-geheue van mense in my lewe: Daar is 'n lavender ontvlugting…stof-grondspore…'n na-reën stoepsit… Daar's 'n twak-sak stilte…'n four-seven-eleven omhelsing…'n skaapboud tafel… Daar's 'n koffie-moer-verwelkoming…basilie-oes geselsies…'n tanniene ode… Daar's 'n speelsheid Pleasures, rooi-aas drome, 'n perde-salf troos… …en ek sou vir baie lank nog só kon aanhou met hierdie nostalgiese geur-geheue koester oefening van talle verhoudings deur die jare. 'n Volgende tree vanuit die kontoerlyn van verhouding beweeg my om te wonder: Wat het ek van God en Sy beweging by hierdie geur-geheue-mense in my lewe geleer? Wanneer Pierre du Plessis in sy boek “Jesus ruik na mirre en stof” skryf “Die reuke van ons wêreld het aan Hom afgesmeer en Sy heilige reuk uiteindelik aan ons…” dan wonder ek oor God se openbaringe deur al hierdie geur-geheue-mense in my lewe: Sabbat was 'n méns, lank voor dit 'n dag of 'n opdrag of 'n wysheid vir my was. Genade was 'n kattekwaad-vryspraak by die Buurvrou voor dit 'n eienskap van God was, wat Ds. O'Reilly vir my verduidelik het, en Oom Deon deurlopend beliggaam het. Liefde was besoedel deur 'n duisend Hollywoodstemme – maar verlos, ontdek, geleer en probeer in 'n gallery vol diverse verhoudings. Weerloosheid is groter as perfeksie ontdek ek by Mnr Du Preez, sonder dat hy een van daardie begrippe gebruik het. Getrouheid by Janes. Integriteit by Karel. Dat 'n groot mens se uit-jou-maag-uit-lag heilig is, leer oom Jannie my. Dat huil onkeerbaar én gesond is by soveel mede-rouers. Dat al is ubuntu nie 'n politieke werklikheid nie, is dit steeds waar in my Xhosa kollegas en vriende se buurte. Ek sou so moeilik kon vertrou in 'n Godheid wat nie rus en vier en geniet nie; 'n God wat nie weerloos kan wees nie; nie kan vergewe of genade kon hê nie; wat nie liefde ken nie; nie getrou is nie; nie integriteit het nie; wat nie lag of huil nie; of wat nie t.w.v iets groter as Homself bestaan nie. Lank voor dit Bybeltekste en -gebeure vir my was, is dit by mense wat ek hierdie wonders van die lewe en van God ontdek het. Was die mens-ervarings dalk juis die manier waarop God my jare lank voorberei het om Sy beweging, Sy karakter, Sy lewegewende-aard te herken. Was dit hierdie menslike verhouding ervarings wat my so aangetrokke gemaak het tot Jesus, as God in lewende lywe. Sou jy deur jou verhoudings stap, soos deur 'n kunsgallery, dan wonder ek wat is dit wat jy sou raaksien? Wat is God besig om oor Homself, die lewe, menswees, geloof en oor jouself aan jou te openbaar – juis deur die kunsmedium van jou verhoudings? En as jy hierdie beginsel gaan probeer na-leef, moet asb nie soos ek verstrengel raak in romantiese idees nie. Dit is juis in die alledaagse, in die frustrasie, die misverstand, die eenvoud, die kleine, die roetine, die stil saam-wees (die fluistering-in-die-windstilte) wat ons die wonders ontdek en nie net in die ekstase en trauma ervarings (wind, aardbewing en vuur) in ons verhoudings nie. Dit is die heilige alledaagse in ons verhoudings wat ons geloof uit die bubblewrap van geestelike-perfeksie kom haal, ons nederig maak, God-met-ons openbaar. En dit is waar die Woord weer lewend word. Al is dit is morsig, soos meeste kuns-ateljees, is dít waar die kuns en verwondering geskep word. Mag jou geloofsoog al meer geoefen word om God se beweging in jou verhoudings te herken en mag hierdie verhoudings jou help in jou lag, eet, speel, stoei, gesels…met God. NA-LEEF tekste: “Skielik was daar ‘n baie sterk wind wat die berg stukkend geruk en die rotse gebreek het voor die Here. Maar in die wind was die Here nie. Na die wind was daar ‘n aardbewing. Maar in die aardbewing was die Here nie. Na die aardbewing was daar ‘n vuur. Maar in die vuur was die Here nie. En na die vuur was daar ‘n fluistering in die windstilte. Toe Elia dit hoor, het hy sy gesig met sy mantel toegemaak en by die bek van die grot gaan staan.” 1 Konings 19:11-13 “Dit verseker Ek julle: Vir sover julle dit aan een van die geringste van hierdie broers van My gedoen het, het julle dit aan My gedoen……….Dit verseker Ek julle: Vir sover julle dit aan een van hierdie geringstes nie gedoen het nie, het julle dit aan My ook nie gedoen nie.” Matteus 25:40 & 45 NA-LEEF vraag: Probeer in elke interaksie en verhouding in jou lewe vra: Wat op dees aarde is God besig om aan my te bekend te maak?

V oddaji Gymnasium smo pogovor namenili izzivom, s katerimi se mladi srečujejo kot potrošniki. V času uporabe digitalnih storitev mladi potrebujejo jasna znanja o svojih pravicah in odgovornostih, finančni pismenosti ter varni in premišljeni rabi digitalnih okolij. Govorili smo o tem, zakaj je ciljno usmerjeno potrošniško izobraževanje ključno za opolnomočenje mladih, da bodo znali sprejemati informirane, odgovorne in trajnostne potrošniške odločitve. Kakšni potrošniki so mladi, ali nakupujejo le na spletu, koliko zaupajo oglasom na družbenih omrežjih in vplivnežem, ki jim skušajo različne izdelke predstaviti kot najboljše na trgu, so nam predstavili dijakinje in dijaki Gimnazije Ledina in Ekonomske šole Ljubljana.

Transcript Brett + 2 Welcome to the Overtired Podcast Jeff: [00:00:00] Hello everybody. This is the Overtired podcast. The three of us are all together for the first time since the Carter administration. Um, it is great to see you both here. I am Jeff Severance Gunzel if I didn’t say that already. Um, and I’m here with Christina Warren and I’m here with Brett Terpstra and hello to both of you. Brett: Hi. Jeff: Great to see you both. Brett: Yeah, it’s good to see you too. I feel like I was really deadpan in the pre-show. I’ll try to liven it up for you. I was a horrible audience. You were cracking jokes and I was just Jeff: that’s true. Christina, before you came on, man, I was hot. I was on fire and Brett was, all Brett was doing was chewing and dropping Popsicle parts. Brett: Yep. I ate, I ate part of a coconut outshine Popsicle off of a concrete floor, but Jeff: It is true, and I didn’t even see him check it [00:01:00] for cat hair, Brett: I did though. Jeff: but I believe he did because he’s a, he’s a very Brett: I just vacuumed in Jeff: He’s a very good American Brett: All right. Christina’s Health Journey Brett: Well, um, I, Christina has a lot of health stuff to share and I wanna save time for that. So let’s kick off the mental health corner. Um, let’s let Christina go first, because if it takes the whole show, it takes the whole show. Go for it. Christina: Uh, I, I will not take this hold show, but thank you. Yeah. So, um, my mental health is okay-ish. Um, I would say the okay-ish part is, is because of things that are happening with my physical health and then some of the medications that I’ve had to be on, um, uh, to deal with it. Uh, prednisone. Fucking sucks, man. Never nev n never take it if you can avoid it. Um, but why Christina, why are you on prednisone or why were you on prednisone for five days? Um, uh, and I’m not anymore to be clear, but that certainly did not help my mental health. Um, at the beginning of November, I woke up and I thought that I’d [00:02:00] slept on my shoulder wrong. And, um, uh, and, and just some, some background. I, I don’t know if this is pertinent to how my injury took place or not, but, but it, I’m sure that it didn’t help. Um, I have scoliosis and in the top and the bottom of my spine, so I have it at the top of my, like, neck area and my lower back. And so my back is like a crooked s um, this will be relevant in a, in a second, but, but I, I thought that I had slept on my back bunny, and I was like, okay, well, all right, it hurts a lot, but fine. Um, and then it, a, a couple of days passed and it didn’t get any better, and then like a week passed and I was at the point where I was like, I almost feel like I need to go to the. Emergency room, I’m in pain. That is that significant. Um, and, you know, didn’t get any better. So I took some of grant’s, Gabapentin, and I took, um, some, some, uh, a few other things and I was able to get in with like a, a, a sports and spine guy. Um, and um, [00:03:00] he looked at me and he was like, yeah, I think that you have like a, a, a bolting disc, also known as a herniated disc. Go to physical therapy. See me later. We’ll, we’ll deal with it. Um. Basically like my whole left side was, was, was really sore and, and I had a lot of pain and then I had numbness in my, my fingers and um, and, and that was a problem the next day, which was actually my birthday. The numbness had at this point spread to my right side and also my lower extremities. And so at this point I called the doctor and he was like, yeah, you should go to the er. And so I went to the ER and, and they weren’t able to do anything for me other than give me, you know, like, um, you know, I was hoping they might give me like, some sort of steroid injection or something. They wouldn’t do anything other than, um, basically, um, they gave me like another type of maybe, maybe pain pill or whatever. Um, but that allowed the doctor to go ahead and. Write, uh, write up an MRI took forever for me to get an MRI, I actually had to get it in Atlanta. [00:04:00] Fun fact, uh, sometimes it is cheaper to just pay and not go through insurance and get an MR MRI and, um, a, um, uh, an x-ray, um, I was able to do it for $450 Jeff: Whoa. Really? Christina: Yeah, $400 for the MR mri. $50 for the x-ray. Jeff: Wow. Christina: Yeah. Yeah. Brett: how I, they, I had an MRI, they charged me like $1,200 and then they failed to bill insurance ’cause I was between insurance. Christina: Yes. Yeah. So what happened was, and and honestly that was gonna be the situation that I was in, not between insurance stuff, but they weren’t even gonna bill insurance. And insurance only approved certain facilities and to get into those facilities is almost impossible. Um, and so, no, there are a lot of like get an MR, I now get a, you know, mammogram, get ghetto, whatever places. And because America’s healthcare system is a HealthScape, you can bypass insurance and they will charge you way less than whatever they bill insurance for. So I, I don’t know if it’s part of the country, you know, like Seattle I think might [00:05:00] probably would’ve been more expensive. But yeah, I was able to find this place like a mile from like, not even a mile from where my parents lived, um, that did the x-rays and the MRI for $450 total. Brett: I, I hate, I hate that. That’s true, but Christina: Me too. Me too. No, no. It pisses me off. Honestly, it makes me angry because like, I’m glad that I was able to do that and get it, you know, uh, uh, expedited. Then I go into the spine, um, guy earlier this week and he looks at it and he’s like, yep, you’ve got a massive bulging disc on, on C seven, which is the, the part of your lower cervical or cervical spine, which is your neck. Um, and it’s where it connects to your ver bray. It’s like, you know, there are a few things you can do. You can do, you know, injections, you can do surgery. He is like, I’m gonna recommend you to a neurosurgeon. And I go to the neurosurgeon yesterday and he was showing me or not, uh, yeah, yesterday he was showing me the, the, the, the scans and, and showing like you up close and it’s, yeah, it’s pretty massive. Like where, where, where the disc is like it is. You could see it just from one view, like, just from like [00:06:00] looking at it like, kind of like outside, like you could actually like see like it was visible, but then when you zoomed in it’s like, oh shit, this, this thing is like massive and it’s pressing on these nerves that then go into my, my hands and other areas. But it’s pressing on both sides. It’s primarily on my left side, but it’s pressing on on my right side too, which is not good. So, um, he basically was like, okay. He was like, you know, this could go away. He was like, the pain isn’t really what I’m wanting to, to treat here. It’s, it’s the, the weakness because my, my left arm is incredibly weak. Like when they do like the, the test where like they, they push back on you to see like, okay, like how, how much can you, what, like, I am, I’m almost immediately like, I can’t hold anything back. Right? Like I’m, I’m, I’m like a toddler in terms of my strength. So, and, and then I’m freaked out because I don’t have a lot of feeling in my hands and, and that’s terrifying. Um, I’m also. Jeff: so terrifying, Christina: I’m, I’m also like in extreme pain because of, of, of where this sits. Like I can’t sleep well. Like [00:07:00] the whole thing sucks. Like the MRI, which was was like the most painful, like 25 minutes, like of my existence. ’cause I was laying flat on my back. I’m not allowed to move and I’m just like, I’m in just incredible pain with that part of, of, of, of my, my side. Like, it, it was. It was terrible. Um, but, uh, but he was like, yeah. Um, these are the sorts of surgical options we have. Um, he’s gonna, um, do basically what what he wants to do is basically do a thing where he would put in a, um, an artificial or, or synthetic disc. So they’re gonna remove the disc, put in a synthetic one. They’ll go in through the, the front of my throat to access the, my, my, my, my spine. Um, put that there and, um, you know, I’ll, I’ll be overnight in the hospital. Um, and then it’ll be a few weeks of recovery and the, the, the pain should go away immediately. Um, but it, it could be up to two years before I get full, you know, feeling back in my arm. So anyway, Jeff: years, Jesus. And Christina: I mean, and hopefully less than that, but, but it could be [00:08:00] up to that. Jeff: there’s no part of this at this point. That’s a mystery to you, right? Christina: The mystery is, I don’t know how this happened. Jeff: You don’t know how it happened, right? Of course. Yeah, of course. Yeah. Yeah. Brett: So tell, tell us about the ghastly surgery. The, the throat thing really threw me like, I can’t imagine that Christina: yeah, yeah. So, well, ’cause the thing is, is that usually if what they just do, like spinal fusion, they’ll go in at the back of your neck, um, and then they’ll remove the, the, um, the, the, the, the disc. And then they’ll fuse your, your, your two bones together. Basically. They’ll, they’ll, they’ll, they’ll fuse this part of the vertebrae, but because they’re going to be replacing the, the disc, they need more room. So that’s why they have to go in through the, through, through basically your throat so that they can have more room to work. Jeff: Good lord. No thank you. Brett: Ugh. Wow. Jeff: Okay. Brett: I am really sorry that is happening. That is, that is, that dwarfs my health concerns. That is just constant pain [00:09:00] and, and it would be really scary. Christina: Yeah. Yeah. It’s not great. It’s not great, but I’m, I’m, I’m doing what I can and, uh, like I have, you know, a small amount of, of Oxycodine and I have like a, a, a, you know, some other pain medication and I’m taking the gabapentin and like, that’s helpful. The bad part is like your body, like every 12, 15 hours, like whatever, like the, the, the cycle is like, you feel it leave your system and like if you’re asleep, you wake up, right? Like, it’s one of those things, like, you immediately feel it, like when it leaves your system. And I’ve never had to do anything for pain management before. And they have me on a very, they have me like on the smallest amount of like, oxycodone you can be on. Um, and I’m using it sparingly because I don’t wanna, you know, be reliant on, on it or whatever. But it, it, but it is one of those things where I’m like, yeah, like sometimes you need fucking opiates because, you know, the pain is like so constant. And the thing is like, what sucks is that it’s not always the same type of pain. Like sometimes it’s throbbing, sometimes it’s sharp, sometimes it’s like whatever. It sucks. But the hardest thing [00:10:00] is like, and. This does impact my mental health. Like it’s hard to sleep. Like, and I’m a side sleeper. I’m a side sleeper, and I’m gonna have to become a back sleeper. So, you know. Yeah. It’s just, it’s, it’s not great. It’s not great, but, you know, that, that, that, that, that’s me. The, the good news is, and I’m very, very gratified, like I have a good surgeon. Um, I’m gonna be able to get in to get this done relatively quickly. He had an appointment for next week. I don’t think that insurance would’ve even been able to approve things fast enough for, for, for that regard. And I have, um, commitments that I can’t make then. And I, and that would also mean that I wouldn’t be able to go visit my family for Christmas. So hopefully I’ll do it right after Christmas. I’m just gonna wait, you know, for, for insurance to, to do its thing, knock on wood, and then schedule, um, from there. But yeah, Jeff: Woof. Christina: so that’s me. Um, uh, who wants to go next? Jeff or, uh, Jeff or Brett? Jeff: It’s like, that’s me. Hot potato throwing it. Brett: I’ll, I’ll go. Brett’s Insurance Woes Brett: I can continue on the insurance topic. Um, I was, for a few months [00:11:00] after getting laid off, I was on Minsu, which is Minnesota’s Medicaid, um, v version of Medicaid. And so basically I paid nothing and I had better insurance than I usually have with, uh, you know, a full deductible and premiums and everything. And it was fantastic. I was getting all the care I needed for all of the health stuff I’m going through. Um, I, they, a, a new doctor I found, ordered the 15 tests and I passed out ’cause it was so much blood and. And it, I was getting, but I was getting all these tests run. I was getting results, we were discovering things. And then my unemployment checks, the income from unemployment went like $300 over the cap for Medicaid. So [00:12:00] all of a sudden, overnight I was cut from Medicaid and I had to do an early sign up, and now I’m on courts and it sucks bad. Like they’re not covering my meds. Last month cost me $600. I was also paying. In addition to that, a $300 premium plus every doctor’s visit is 50 bucks out of pocket. So this will hopefully only last until January, and then it’ll flip over and I will be able to demonstrate basically no income, um, until like Mark makes enough money that it gets reported. Um, and even, uh, until then, like I literally am making under the, the poverty limit. So, um, I hope to be back on Medicaid shortly. I have one more month. I’ll have to pay my $600 to refill. I [00:13:00] cashed out my 401k. Um, like things were, everything was up high enough that I had made, I. I had made tens of thousands of dollars just on the investments and the 401k, but I also have a lot of concerns about the market volatility around Nvidia and the AI bubble in general. Um, so taking my money out of the market just felt okay to me. I paid the 10%, uh, penalty Jeff: Mm-hmm. Brett: and ultimately I, I came out with enough cash that I can invest on my own and be able to cover the next six months. Uh, if I don’t have any other income, which I hope to, I hope to not spend my nest egg. Um, but I did, I did a lot of thinking and calculating and I think I made the right choices. But anyway, [00:14:00] that will help if I have to pay for medical stuff that will help. Um. And then I’ve had insomnia, bad on and off. Right now I’m coming off of two days of good sleep. You’re catching me on a good day. Um, but Jeff: Still wouldn’t laugh at my jokes. Brett: before that it was, well, that’s the thing is like before that, it was four nights where I slept two to four hours per night, and by the end of it, I could barely walk. And so two nights of sleep after a stint like that, like, I’m just super, I’m deadpan, I’m dazed. Um, I could lay down and fall asleep at any time. Um, I, so, so keep me awake. Um, but yeah, that’s, that’s, that’s me. Mental health is good. Like I’m in pretty high spirits considering all this, like financial stuff and everything. Like my mood has been pretty stable. I’ve been getting a lot of coding done. I’ll tell you about projects in [00:15:00] a minute, but, um, but that’s, that’s me. I’m done. Jeff: Awesome. I’m enjoying watching your cat roll around, but clearly cannot decide to lay down at this point. Brett: No, nobody is very persnickety. Jeff: I literally have to put my. Well, you say put a cat down like you used to. When you put a kid down for a nap, you say you wanna put ’em down. Right? That’s where it’s coming from. I now have a chair next to my desk, ’cause I have one cat that walks around Yowling at about 11:00 AM while I’m working. And I have to like, put ’em down for a nap. It’s pathetic. It’s pathetic that I do that. Let’s just be clear. Brett: Yeah. Jeff: soulmate though. Jeff’s Mental Health Update Jeff: Um, I’m doing good. I’m, I’m, I’ve been feeling kind of light lately in a nice way. I’ve had ups and downs, but even with the ups and downs, there’s like a, except for one day last week was, there’s just been feeling kind of good in general, which is remarkable in a way. ’cause it’s just like stressful time. There’s some stressful business stuff, like, [00:16:00] a lot of stuff like that. But I’m feeling good and, and just like, uh, yeah, just light. I don’t know, it’s weird. Like, I’ve just been noticing that I feel kind of light and, uh. And not, not manic, not high light. Brett: Yeah. No, that’s Jeff: uh, and that’s, that’s lovely. So yeah. And so I’m doing good. I’m doing good. I fucking, it’s cold. Which sucks ’cause it just means for everybody that’s heard about my workshop over the years, that I can’t really go out there and have it be pleasant Brett: It’s, it’s been Minnesota thus far. Has had, we’ve had like one, one Sub-Zero day. Jeff: whatever. It’s fucking cold. Christina: Yeah. What one? Brett? Brett. It’s December 6th as we’re recording this one Sub-Zero day. That’s insane. Brett: Is it Jeff: Granted, granted I’ve been dressing warm, so I’m ready to go out the door for ice related things. Meaning, meaning government, ice, Brett: Uh, yeah. Yeah. Jeff: So I like wear my long underwear during [00:17:00] the day. ’cause actually like recently. So at my son’s school, which is like six blocks from here, um, has a lot of Somali immigrants in it. And, and uh, and there was a, at one point there was ice activity in the other direction, um, uh, uh, near me. And so neighbors put out a call here around so that at dismissal time people would pair up at all the intersections surrounding the school. And, um, and like a quick signal group popped up, whatever. It was so amazing because like we all just popped out there. And by the time I got out, uh, everyone was already like, posted up and I was like, I’m a, in these situations, I am a wanderer. You want me roaming? I don’t want to pair up with somebody I don’t like, I just, I grabbed a camera with a Zoom on it and like, I was like, I’m in roam. Um, it’s what I was as an activist, what I was as a reporter, like it’s just my nature. Um, but like. Everybody was out and like, and they were just like, they were ready man. And then we got like the all clear and you could just see people in the [00:18:00] neighborhood just like standing down and going home. But because of the true threat and the ongoing arrests here, now that the Minneapolis stuff has started, like I do, I was like wearing long underwear just, and I have a little bag by the door ready to like pop out if something comes up and I can be helpful. Um, and uh, and I guess what I’m saying is I should use that to go into the garage as well if I’m already prepared. Brett: Right. Jeff: But here’s, okay, so here’s a mental health thing actually. So I, one of the, I’ve gone through a few years of just sort of a little bit of paralysis around being able to just, I don’t know what, like do anything that is kind of project related that takes some thinking, whatever it is, like I’m talking about around the house or things that have kind of broken over the years, whatever. So I’ve had this snowblower and it’s a really good snowblower. It’s got headlights. And, uh, and I used to love snow blowing the entire block. Like it just made me feel good, made me feel useful. Um, and sorry I cough. I left it outside for a [00:19:00] year for a, like a winter and a spring and water got into the gas tank. It rusted out in there. I knew I couldn’t start it or I’d ruin the whole damn engine. So I left it for two years and I felt bad about myself. But this year, just like probably a month before the first big snowfall, I fucking replaced a gas tank and a carburetor on a machine. And I have never done anything like that in my life. And so then we got the snowfall and I, and I snow blowed this whole block Brett: Nice. Jeff: great. ’cause now they all owe me. Brett: I, uh, I have a, uh, so I have a little electric powered, uh, snowblower that can handle like two inches of snow. Um, and, and on big snowfalls, if you get out there every hour and keep up with it, it, it works. But, but I, my back right now, I can’t stand for, I can’t stand still for 10 minutes and I can’t move for more than like five minutes. And so I’m, I’m very disabled and El has good days and bad days, uh, thus [00:20:00] far. L’s been out there with a shovel, um, really being the hero. But we have a next door neighbor with a big gas powered snowblower. And so we went over, brought them gifts, and, um, asked if they would take care of our driveway on days we couldn’t, uh, for like, you know, we’d pay ’em 25 bucks to do the driveway. And, uh, and they were, he was still reluctant to accept money. Um. But, but we both agreed it was better to like make it a, a transaction. Jeff: Oh my God. You don’t want to get into weird Minnesota neighbor relational. Brett: right. You don’t want the you owe me thing. Um, so, so we have that set up. But in the process we made really good friends with our neighbor. Like we sat down in their living room for I think 45 minutes and just like talked about health and politics and it was, it was really fun. They’re, they’re retired. They’re in their [00:21:00] seventies and like act, he always looks super grumpy. I always thought he was a mean old man. He’s actually, he laughs more easily than most people I’ve ever met. Um, he’s actually, when people say, oh, he is actually a teddy bear, this guy really is, he’s just jovial. Uh, he just has resting angry old man face. Jeff: Or like my, I have public mis throat face, like when I’m out and about, especially when I’m shopping, I know that my face is, I’m gonna fucking kill you if you look me in the eye Brett: I used Jeff: is not my general disposition. Brett: people used to tell me that about myself, but I feel like I, I carry myself differently these days than I did when I was younger. Jeff: You know what I learned? Do you, have you both watched Veep, Christina: Yes, Jeff: you know, Richard sp split, right? Um, and, and he always kind of has this sweet like half smile and he is kind of looking up and I, I figured out at one point I was in an airport, which is where my kill everybody face especially comes up. Just to be clear. TSA, it’s just a feeling inside. I [00:22:00] have no desire to act to this out. I realized that if I make the Richard Plet face, which I can try to make for you now, which is something like if I just make the Richard Plet face, my whole disposition Brett: yeah. Yeah. Jeff: uh, and I even feel a little better. And so I just wanna recommend that to people. Look up Richard Spt, look at his face. Christina: Hey, future President Bridges split. Jeff: future President Richard Splat, also excellent in the Detroiters. Um, that’s all, uh, that’s all I wanted to say about that. Brett: I have found that like when I’m texting with someone, if I start to get frustrated, you know, you know that point where you’re still adding smiley emoticons even though you’re actually not, you’re actually getting pissed off, but you don’t wanna sound super bitchy about it, so you’re adding smile. I have found that when I add a smiley emoji in those circumstances, if I actually smile before I send it, it like my [00:23:00] mood will adjust to match, to match the tone I’m trying to convey, and it lessens my frustration with the other person. Jeff: a little joy wrist rocket. Christina: Yeah. Hey, I mean, no, but hey, but, but that, that, that, that, that’s interesting. I mean, they’re, they, they’ve done studies that like show that, right? That like show like, you know, I mean, like, some of this is all like bullshit to a certain extent, but there is something to be said for like, you know, like the power of like positive thinking and like, you know, if you go into things with like, different types of attitudes or even like, even if you like, go into job interviews or other situations, like you act confident or you smile, or you act happy or whatever. Even if you’re not like it, the, the, the, the euphoria, you know, that those sorts of uh, um, endorphin reactions or whatever can be real. So that’s interesting. Brett: Yeah, I found, I found going into job interviews with my usual sarcastic and bitter, um, kind of mindset, Jeff: I already hate this job. Brett: it doesn’t play well. It doesn’t play well. So what are your weaknesses? Fuck off. Um,[00:24:00] Christina: right. Well, well, well, I hate people. Jeff: Yeah. Dealing with motherfuckers like you, that’s one weakness.

Jeff Tweedy Jeff: What was, uh, I was watching a Stephen Colbert interview with Jeff Tweedy, who just put out a triple album and, uh, it was a very thoughtful, sweet interview. And then Stephen Colbert said, you know, you’re not supposed to do this. And Jeff Tweety said, it’s all part of my career long effort to leave the public wanting less. Christina: Ha, Jeff: That was a great bit. Christina: that’s a fantastic bit. A side note, there are a couple of really good NPR, um, uh, tiny desks that have come out in the last couple of month, uh, couple of weeks. Um, uh, one is shockingly, I, I’ll, I’ll just be a a, a fucking boomer about it. The Googo dolls. Theirs was [00:27:00] great. It’s fantastic. They did a great job. It already has like millions of views, like it wrecked up like over a million views, I think like in like, like less than 24 hours. They did a great job, but, uh, but Brandy Carlisle, uh, did one, um, the other day and hers is really, really good too. So, um, so yeah. Yeah, exactly. So yeah. Anyway, you said, you saying Jeff pd maybe, I don’t know how I got from Wilco to like, you know, there, Jeff: Yeah. Well, they’ve done some good, he’s done his own good Christina: he has, he has done his own. Good, good. That’s honestly, that’s probably what I was thinking of, but Jeff: It’s my favorite Jeff besides me because Bezos, he’s not in the, he’s not in the game. Christina: No. No, he’s not. No. Um, he, he’s, he’s not on the Christmas card list at all. Jeff: Oh man. Jeff’s Concert Marathon Jeff: Can I just tell you guys that I did something, um, I did something crazy a couple weeks ago and I went to three shows in one week, like I was 20 fucking two, Brett: Good grief. Jeff: and. It was a blast. So, okay, so the background of this is my oldest son [00:28:00] loves hip hop, and when we drive him to college and back, or when I do, it’s often just me. Um, he, he goes deep and he, it’s a lot of like, kind of indie hip hop and a lot. It’s just an interesting, he listens to interesting shit, but he will go deep and he’ll just like, give me a tour through someone’s discography or through all their features somewhere, whatever it is. And like, it’s the kind of input that I love, which is just like, I don’t, even if it’s not my genre, like if you’re passionate and you can just weave me through the interrelationship and the history and whatever it is I’m in. So as a result of that, made me a huge fan of Danny Brown and made me a huge fan of the sky, Billy Woods. And so what happened was I went to a hip hop show at the seventh Street entry, uh, which is attached to First Avenue. It’s a little club, very small, lovely little place, the only place my band could sell out. Um, and I watched a hip hop show there on a Monday night, Tuesday night. I went to the Uptown Theater, which Brett is now a actually an operating [00:29:00] theater for shows. Uh, and I, and I saw Danny Brown, but I also saw two hyper pop bands, a genre I was not previously aware of, including one, which was amazing, called Fem Tenal. And I was in line to get into that show behind furries, behind trans Kids. Like it was this, I was the weirdest, like I did not belong. Underscores played, and, and this will mean something to somebody out there, but not, didn’t mean anything to me until that night. And, uh. I felt like such, there were times, not during Danny Brown, Danny Brown’s my age all good. But like there were times where I was in the crowd ’cause I’m tall. Anybody that doesn’t know I’m very tall and I’m wearing like a not very comfortable or safe guy seeming outfit, a black hoodie, a black stocking cap. Like I basically looked like I’m possibly a shooter and, and I’m like standing among all these young people loving it, but feeling a little like, should I go to the back? Even like I was leaving that show [00:30:00] and the only people my age were people’s parents that were waiting to pick them up on the way out. So anyway, that was night two. Danny Brown was awesome. And then two nights later I went to see, this is way more my speed, a band called the Dazzling Kilman who were a band that. Came out in the nineties, St. Louis and a noisy Matthew Rock. Wikipedia claims they invented math rock. It’s a really stupid claim, uh, but it’s a lovely, interesting band and it’s a friend of mine named Nick Sakes, who’s who fronted that band and was in all these great bands back when I was in bands called Colos Mite and Sick Bay, and all this is great shit. So they played a reunion show. In this tiny punk rock club here called Cloudland, just a lovely little punk rock club. And, um, and, and that was like rounded out my week. So like, I was definitely, uh, a tourist the early part of the week, mostly at the Danny Brown Show. But then I like got to come home to my noisy punk rock [00:31:00] on, uh, on Thursday night. And I, I fucking did three shows and it hurt so bad. Like even by the first of three bands on the second night. I was like, I don’t think I can make it. And I do. I already pregame shows with ibuprofen. Just to be really clear, I microdose glucose tabs at shows like, like I am, I am a full on old man doing these things. But, um, I did get some cred with my kids for being at a hyper pop show all by myself. And, Christina: Hell yeah. A a Jeff: friends seemed impressed. Christina: no, as a as, as as they should be. I’m impressed. And like, and I, I, I typically like, I definitely go to like more of like, I go, I go to shows more frequently and, and I’m, I’m even like, I’m, I’m gonna be real with you. I’m like, yeah, three in one week. Jeff: That’s a lot. Christina: That’s a lot. That’s a lot. Jeff: man. Did I feel good when I walked home from that last show though? I was like, I fucking did it. I did not believe I wasn’t gonna bail on at least two of those shows, if not all three. Anyway, just wanted to say Brett: I [00:32:00] do like one show a year, but Jeff: that’s how I’ve been for years this year. I think I’ve seen eight shows. Brett: damn. Jeff: Yeah, it’s Brett: Alright, so you’ve been teasing us about this, this contest you won. Jeff: Yeah, please, Christina. Sorry to push that off. Christina: No, no, no, no. That’s, that’s completely okay. That, that, that, that’s great. Uh, no. Christina Wins Big Christina: So, um, I won two six K monitors. Brett: Damn. Jeff: is that what those boxes are behind you? Christina: Yeah, yeah. This is what the boxes are behind me, so I haven’t been able to get them up because this happened. I got them literally right in the midst of all this stuff with my back. Um, but I do have an Ergotron poll now that is here, and, and Grant has said that he will, will get them up. But yeah, so I won 2 32 inch six K monitors from a Reddit contest. Brett: How, how, how, Jeff: How does this happen? How do I find a Reddit contest? Christina: Yeah. So I got lucky. So I have, I, I have a clearly, well, well, um, there was a little, there was a little bit of like, other step to it than that, but like, uh, so how it worked was basically, um, LG is basically just put out [00:33:00] two, they put out a new 32 inch six K monitor. I’ll have it linked in, in, in the show notes. Um, so we’ve talked about this on this podcast before, but like one of my big, like. Pet peeve, like things that I can’t get past. It’s like I need like a retina screen. Like I need like the, the perfect pixel doubling thing for that the Mac Os deals with, because I’ve used a 5K screen, either through an iMac or um, an lg, um, ultra fine or, um, a, uh, studio display. For like 11 years. And, and I, and I’ve been using retina displays on laptops even longer than that. And so if I use like a regular 4K display, like it just, it, it doesn’t work for me. Um, you can use apps like, um, like better control and other things to kind of emulate, like what would be like if you doubled the resolution, then it, it down, you know, um, of samples that, so that. It looks better than, than if it’s just like the, the, the 4K stuff where in the, the user interface things are too big and whatnot. And to be clear, this is a Macco West problem. If [00:34:00] you are using Windows or Linux or any other operating system that does fractional scaling, um, correctly, then this is not a problem. But Macco West does not do fractional scaling direct, uh, correctly. Um, weirdly iOS can, like, they can do three X resolution and other things. Um, but, but, but Macs does not. And that’s weird because some of the native resolutions on some of the MacBook errors are not even perfectly pixeled doubled, meaning Apple is already having to do a certain amount of like resolution changes to, to fit into their own, created by their, their own hubris, like way of insisting on, on only having like, like two x pixel doubling 18 years ago, we could have had independent, uh, resolutions, uh, um, for, for UI elements and, and, and window bars. But anyway, I, I’m, I’m digressing anyway. I was looking at trying to get either a second, uh, studio display, which I don’t wanna do because Apple’s reportedly going to be putting out a new one. Um, and they’re expensive or getting, um, there are now a number of different six K [00:35:00] displays that are not $6,000 that are on the market. So, um, uh, uh, Asus has one, um, there is one from like a, a Chinese company called like, or Q Con that, um, looks like a, a complete copy of this, of the pro display XDR. It has a different panel, but it’s, it’s six K and they, they’ve copied the whole design and it’s aluminum and it’s glossy and it looks great, but I’d have to like get it from like. A weird distributor, and if I have any issues with it, I don’t really wanna have to send it back to China and whatnot. And then LG has one that they just put out. And so I’ve been researching these on, on Mac rumors and on some other forums. And, um, I, uh, I, somebody in one of the Mac Roomers forums like posted that there was like a contest that LG was running in a few different subreddits where they were like, tell us why you should get one of, like, we’re gonna be giving away like either one or two monitors, and I guess they did this in a few subreddits. Tell us why this would be good for your workflow. And, um, I guess I, I guess I’m one of the people who kind of read the [00:36:00] assignment because it, okay, I’ll just be honest with this, with, with you guys on this podcast, uh, because I, I don’t think anyone from LG will hear this and my answers were accurate anyway. But anyway, this was not the sort of contest where it was like we will randomly select a winner. This was the moderators and lg, were going to read the responses and choose the winner. Jeff: Got it. Christina: So if you spend a little bit of time and thoughtfully write out a response, maybe you stand a better chance of winning the contest. Jeff: yeah, yeah. Put the work in like it was 2002. Christina: Right. Anyway, I still was shocked when I like woke up like on like Halloween and they were like, congratulations, you’ve won two monitors. I’m like, I’m sorry. What? Jeff: That’s amazing. Christina: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Jeff: Nice work. I know I’ve, you know, I’ve been staring at those boxes behind you this whole time, just being like, those look like some sweet monitors. Christina: yeah, yeah. Monitor Setup Challenges Christina: I mean, and, uh, [00:37:00] uh, it’s, it’s, it’s, it’s, it’s, and I, I’m very much, so my, my, my only issue is, okay, how am I gonna get these on my desk? So I’m gonna have to do something with my iMac and I’m probably gonna have to get rid of my, my my, my 5K, um, uh, uh, studio display, at least in the short term. Ergotron Mounts and Tall Poles Christina: Um, but what I did do is I, um, I ordered from, um, Ergotron, ’cause I already have. Um, two of their, um, LX mounts, um, or, or, or, or arms. Um, and only one of them is being used right now. And then I have a different arm that I use for the, um, um, iMac. Um, they sell like a, if you call ’em directly, you can get them to send you a tall pole so that you can put the two arms on top of them. And that way I think I can like, have them so that I can have like one pole and then like have one on one side, one Jeff: I have a tall pole. Christina: and, and yeah, that’s what she said. Um, Jeff: as soon as I said it, I was like, for fuck’s sake. But Christina: um, but, uh, but, but yeah, but so that way I think I, I can, I, in theory, I can stack the market and have ’em side by side. I don’t know. Um, I got that. I, I had to call Tron and, and order that from them. [00:38:00] Um, it was only a hundred dollars for, for the poll and then $50 for a handling fee. Jeff: It’s not easy to ship a tall pole. Brett: That’s what she said. Christina: that is what she said. Uh, that is exactly what she said. But yeah, so I, I, the, the, the unfortunate thing is that, um, I, um, I, I had to, uh, get a, like all these, they, they came in literally right before Thanksgiving, and then I’ve had, like, all my back stuff has Jeff: Yeah, no Christina: debilitating, but I’m looking forward to, um, getting them set up and used. And, uh, yeah. Review Plans and Honest Assessments Christina: And then full review will be coming to, uh, to, I have to post a review on Reddit, but then I will also be doing a more in depth review, uh, on this podcast if anybody’s interested in, in other places too, to like, let let you know, like if it’s worth your money or not. Um, ’cause there, like I said, there are, there are a few other options out there. So it’s not one of those things where like, you know, um, like, thank you very much for the free monitor, um, monitors. But, but I, I will, I will give like the, the, you know, an honest assessment or Current Display Setup Brett: So [00:39:00] do you currently have a two display setup? Christina: No. Um, well, yes, and kind of, so I have my, my, I have my 5K studio display, and then I have like my iMac that I use as a two to display setup. But then otherwise, what I’ve had to do, and this is actually part of why I’m looking forward to this, is I have a 4K 27 inch monitor, but it’s garbage. And it, it’s one of those things where I don’t wanna use it with my Mac. And so I wind up only using it with my, with my Windows machine, with my framework desktop, um, with my Windows or Linux machine. And, and because that, even though I, it supports Thunderbolt, the Apple display is pain in the ass to use with those things. It doesn’t have the KVM built in. Like, it doesn’t like it, it just, it’s not good for that situation. So yeah, this will be of this size. I mean, again, like I, I, I’m 2 32 inch monitors. I don’t know how I’m gonna deal with that on my Jeff: I Brett: yeah. So right now I’m looking at 2 32 inch like UHD monitors, Christina: Yeah,[00:40:00] Brett: I will say that on days when my neck hurts, it sucks. It’s a, it’s too wide a range to, to like pan back and forth quickly. Like I’ll throw my back out, like trying to keep track of stuff. Um, but I have found that like if I keep the second display, just like maybe social media apps is the way I usually set it up. And then I only work on one. I tried buying an extra wide curve display, hated it. Jeff: Uh, I’ve always wanted to try one, but Christina: I don’t like them. Jeff: Yeah. Christina: Well, for me, well for me it’s two things. One, it’s the, I don’t love the whole like, you know, thing or whatever, but the big thing honestly there, if you could give me, ’cause people are like, oh, you can get a really big 5K, 2K display. I’m like, that’s not a 5K display. That is 2 27 inch, 1440 P displays. One, you know, ultra wide, which is great. Good for you. That’s not retina. And I’m a sicko Who [00:41:00] needs the, the pixel doubling? Like I wish that my eyes could not use that, but, but, but, Jeff: that needs the pixel. Like was that the headline of your Reddit, uh, Christina: no, no. It wasn’t, it wasn’t. But, but maybe it should be. Hi, I’m a sicko who only, um, fucks with, with, with, with, with, with, with retina displays. Ask me anything. Um, but no, but that’s a good point. Brett: I think 5K Psycho is the Christina: 5K Sicko is the po is the po title. I like that. I like that. No, what I’m thinking about doing and that’s great to know, Brett. Um, this kind of reaffirms my thing. Thunderbolt KVM and Display Preferences Christina: So what’s nice about these monitors is that they come with like, built in like, um, Thunderbolt 5K VM. So, which is nice. So you could conceivably have multiple, you know, computers, uh, connected, you know, to to, to one monitor, which I really like. Um, I mean like, ’cause like look, I, I’ve bitched and moaned about the studio display, um, primarily for the price, but at the same time, if mine broke tomorrow and if I didn’t have any way to replace it, I’ve, I’ve also gone on record saying I would buy a new one immediately. As mad as I am about a [00:42:00] lot of different things with that, that the built-in webcam is garbage. The, you know, the, the fact that there’s not a power button is garbage. The fact that you can’t use it with multiple inputs, it’s garbage. But it’s a really good display and it’s what I’m used to. Um, it’s really not any better than my LG Ultra fine from 2016. But you know what? Whatever it is, what it is. Um. I, I am a 5K sicko, but being able to, um, connect my, my personal machine and my work machine at the same time to one, and then have my Windows slash Linux computer connected to another, I think that’s gonna be the scenario where I’m in. So I’m not gonna necessarily be in a place where I’m like, okay, I need to try to look at both of them across 2 32 inch displays. ’cause I think that that, like, that would be awesome. But I feel like that’s too much. Brett: I would love a decent like Thunderbolt KVM setup that could actually swap like my hubs back and Christina: Yes. MacBook Pro and Studio Comparisons Brett: Um, so, ’cause I, I have a studio and I have my, uh, Infor MacBook Pro [00:43:00] and I actually work mostly on the MacBook Pro. Um, but if I could easily dock it and switch everything on my desk over to it, I would, I would work in my office more often. ’cause honestly, the M four MacBook Pro is, it’s a better machine than the original studio was. Um, and I haven’t upgraded my studio to the latest, but, um, I imagine the new one is top notch. Christina: Oh yeah. Yeah. Brett: my, my other one, a couple years old now is already long in the tooth. Christina: No, I mean, they’re still good. I mean, it’s funny, I saw that some YouTube video the other day where they were like, the best value MacBook you can get is basically a 4-year-old M1 max. And I was like, I don’t know about that guys. Like, I, I kind of disagree a little bit. Um, but the M1 max, which is I think is what is in the studio, is still a really, really good ship. But to your point, like they’ve made those, um. You know, the, the, the new ones are still so good. Like, I have an M three max as my personal laptop, and [00:44:00] that’s kind of like the dog chip in the, in the m um, series lineup. So I kind of am regretful for spending six grand on that one, but it is what it is, and I’m like, I’m not, I’m not upgrading. Um, I mean, maybe, maybe in, in next year if, if the M five Pro, uh, or M five max or whatever is, is really exceptional, maybe I’ll look at, okay, how much will you give me to, to trade it in? But even then, I, I, but I feel like I’m at that point where I’m like, it gets to a point where like it’s diminishing returns. Um, but, uh, just in terms of my own budget. But, um, yeah, the, the new just info like pro or or max, whatever, Brett: I have, I have an M four MacBook Pro sitting around that I keep forgetting to sell. Uh, it’s the one that I, it only had a 256 gigabyte hard drive, Jeff: what happened to me when I bought my M1, Brett: and I, and I regretted that enough that I just ordered another one. But, uh, for various reasons, I couldn’t just return the one I didn’t Jeff: ’cause it was.[00:45:00] Brett: so now I, now I have to sell it and I should sell it while it’s still a top of the line machine Christina: Sell it before, sell, sell, sell, sell it before next month, um, or, or February or whenever they sell it before then the, the pros come out. ’cause right now the M five base is out, but the pros are not. So I think feel like you could still get most of your value for it, especially since it has very few battery cycles. Be sure to put the battery cycles on your Facebook marketplace or eBay thing or whatever. Um, I bought my, uh, she won’t listen to this so she won’t know, but, um, they, there was a, a killer Cyber Monday deal, uh, for Best Buy where they had like a, the, the, the, so it’s several years old, but it was the, the M two MacBook Air, but the one that they upgraded to 16 gigs of Ram when Apple was like, oh, we have to have Apple Intelligence and everything, because they actually thought that they were actually gonna ship Apple Intelligence. So they like went back and they, like, they, they, you know, retconned like made the base model MacBook Air, like 16 [00:46:00] gigs. Um, and, uh, anyway, it was, it was $600, um, Jeff: still crazy. Christina: which, which like even for like a, a, a 2-year-old machine or whatever, I was like, yeah, she, my sister, I think she’s on like, like a 2014 or older than that. Like, like MacBook Air. She doesn’t even know where the MagSafe is. I don’t think she even knows where the laptop is. So she’s basically doing everything like on her phone and I’m like, okay, you need a laptop of some type, but at this point. I do feel strongly that like the, the, the $600 or, or, or actually I think it was $650, it was actually less, it is actually more expensive than what the, the, the Cyber Monday sale was, um, the M1, Walmart, MacBook Air. I’m like, absolutely not like that is at this point, do not buy that. Right? Like, I, especially with eight gigs of ram, I’m, I’m like, it’s been, it’s five years old. It’s a, it was a great machine and it was great value for a long time. $200. Cool, right? Like, if you could get something like use and, and, and, and if you could replace the battery or, you know, [00:47:00] for, for, you know, not, not too much money or whatever. Like, I, I, I could see like an argument to be made like value, right? But there’d be no way in hell that I would ever spend or tell anybody else to spend $650 on that new, but $600 for an M two with Jeff: Now we’re talking. Christina: which has the redesign brand new. I’m like, okay. Spend $150 more and you could have got the M four, um, uh, MacBook Air, obviously all around Better Machine. But for my sister, she doesn’t need that, Jeff: What do we have to do to put your sister in this M two MacBook Christina: that, that, that, that, that, that’s exactly it. So I, I, I was, well, also, it was one of those things I was like, I think that she would rather me spend the money on toys for my nephew for Santa Claus than, than, uh, giving her like a, a processor upgrade. Um, Jeff: Claus isn’t real. Brett: Oh shit. Jeff: Gotcha. Every year I spoil it for somebody. This year it was Christina and Brett. Sorry guys. Brett: right. Well, can I tell you guys Jeff: Yeah. [00:48:00] Brett Software. Brett: two quick projects before we do Jeff: Hold on. You don’t have to be quick ’cause you could call it Brett: We’re already at 45 minutes and I want Jeff: What I’m saying, skip GrAPPtitude. This is it? Brett: okay. Christina: us about Mark. Tell us about your projects. Brett: So, so Mark three is, there’s a public, um, test flight beta link. Uh, if you go to marked app.com, not marked two app.com, uh, marked app.com. Uh, you, there’s a link in the, in the, at the top for Christina: Join beta. Mm-hmm. Brett: Um, and that is public and you can join it and you can send me feedback directly through email because, um, uh, uh, the feedback reporter sucks for test flight and you can’t attach files. And half the time they come through as anonymous feedback and I can’t even follow up on ’em. So email me. But, um, I’ll be announcing that on my blog soon-ish. Um, right now there’s like [00:49:00] maybe a couple dozen, um, testers and I, it’s nice and small and I’m solving the biggest bugs right away. Um, so that’s been, that’s been big. Like Mark, even since we last talked has added. Do you remember Jeff when Merlin was on and he wanted to. He wanted to be able to manage his styles, um, and disable built-in styles. There’s now a whole table based style manager where you Jeff: saw that. Brett: you can, you can reorder, including built-in styles. You can reorder, enable, disable, edit, duplicate. Um, it’s like a full, full fledged, um, style manager. And I just built a whole web app that is a style generator that gives you, um, automatic like rhythm calculations for your CSS and you can, you can control everything through like, uh, like UI fields instead of having to [00:50:00] write CSS. Uh, but you can also o open up a very, I’ve spent a lot of time on the code mirror CSS editor in the web app. Uh, so, and it’s got live preview as you edit in the code mirror field. Um, so that’s pretty cool. And that’s built into marts. So if you go to style, um, generate style, it’ll load up a, a style generator for you. Anyway, there’s, there’s a ton. I’m not gonna go into all the details, but, uh, anyone listening who uses markdown for anything, especially if you want ability to export to like Word and epub and advanced PDF export, um, join the beta. Let me know what you think. Uh, help me squash bugs. But the other thing, every time I push a beta for review before the new bug reports come in, I’ve been putting time into a tool. Markdown Processor: Apex Brett: I’m calling [00:51:00] Apex and um, I haven’t publicly announced this one yet, but I probably will by the time this podcast comes out. Jeff: I mean, doesn’t this count? Brett: It, it does. I’m saying like this, this might be a, you hear you heard it here first kind of thing, um, but if you go to github.com/tt sc slash apex, um, I built a, uh, pure C markdown processor that combines syntax from cram down GitHub flavored markdown, multi markdown maku, um, common mark. And basically you can write syntax from any of those processors, including all of their special features, um, and in one document, and then use Apex in its unified mode, and it’ll just figure out what. All of your syntax is supposed to do. Um, so you can take, you can port documents from one platform to another [00:52:00] without worrying about how they’re gonna render. Um, if I can get any kind of adoption with Apex, it could solve a lot of problems. Um, I built it because I want to make it the default processor in marked ’cause right now, you, you have to choose, you know, cram Christina: Which one? Brett: mark and, and choosing one means you lose something in order to gain something. Um, so I wanted to build a universal one that brought together everything. And I added cool features from some extensions of other languages, such as if you have two lists in a row, normally in markdown, it’s gonna concatenate those into one list. Now you can put a carrot on a line between the two lists and it’ll break it into two lists. I also added support for a. An extension to cram down that lets you put double uh, carrots inside a table cell and [00:53:00] create a row band. So like a cell that, that expands it, you rows but doesn’t expand the rest of the row. Um, so you can do cell spans and row spans and it has a relaxed table version where you don’t have to have an alignment row, which is, uh, sometimes we just wanna make quickly table. You make two lines. You put some pipes in. This will, if there’s no alignment row, it will generate a table with just a table body and table data cells in no header. It also allows footers, you can add a footer to a table by using equals in the separator line. Um, it, it’s, Jeff: This is very civilized, Brett: it is. Christina: is amazing, Brett: So where Common Mark is extremely strict about things, um, apex is extremely permissive. Jeff: also itty bitty things like talk about the call out boxes from like Brett: oh yeah, it, it can handle call out syntax from Obsidian and Bear and Xcode Playgrounds. [00:54:00] Um, and it incorporates all of Mark’s syntax for like file includes and even renders like auto scroll pauses that work in marked and some other teleprompter situations. Um, it uses file ude syntax from multi markdown, like, which is just like a curly brace and, uh, marked, which is, uh, left like a double left, uh, angle bracket and then different. Brackets to surround a file name and it handles IA writer file inclusion where you just type a forward slash and then the name of a file and it automatically detects if that file is an image or source code or markdown text, and it will import it accordingly. And if it’s a CSV file, it’ll generate a table from it automatically. It’s, it’s kind of nuts. I, it’s kind of nuts. I could not have done this [00:55:00] without copilot. I, I am very thankful for copilot because my C skills are not, would not on their own, have been up to this task. I know enough to bug debug, but yeah, a lot of these features I got a big hand from copilot on. Jeff: This is also Brett. This is some serious Brett Terpstra. TURPs Hard Christina: Yeah, it is. I was gonna say, this is like Jeff: and also that’s right. Also, if your grandma ever wrote you a note and it, and though you couldn’t really read it, it really well, that renders perfectly Christina: Amazing. No, I was gonna say this is like, okay, so Apex is like the perfect name ’cause this is the apex of Brett. Jeff: Yes. Apex of Brett. Christina: That’s also that, that’s, that’s not an alternate episode title Apex of Brett. Because genuinely No, Brett, like I am, I am so stunned and impressed. I mean, you all, you always impressed me like you are the most impressive like developer that I, that I’ve ever known. But you, this is incredible. And, and this, I, I love this [00:56:00] because as you said, like common Mark is incredibly strict. This is incredibly permissive. But this is great. ’cause there are those scenarios where you might have like, I wanna use one feature from one thing or one from another, or I wanna combine things in various ways, or I don’t wanna have to think about it, you know? Brett: I aals, I forgot to mention I aals inline attribute list, which is a crammed down feature that lets you put curly brackets after like a paragraph and then a colon and then say, dot call out inside the curly brackets. And then when it renders the markdown, it creates that paragraph and adds class equals call out to the paragraph. Um, and in, in Cramon you can apply these to everything from list items to list to block quotes. Like you can do ’em for spans. You could like have one after, uh, link syntax and just apply, say dot external to a link. So the IAL syntax can add IDs classes and uh, arbitrary [00:57:00] attributes to any element in your markdown when it renders to HTML. And, uh, and Apex has first class support for I aals. Was really, that was, that Christina: that was really hard, Brett: I wrote it because I wanted, I wanted multi markdown, uh, for my prose writing, but I really missed the als. Christina: Yes. Okay. Because see, I run into this sort of thing too, right? Because like, this is a problem like that. I mean, it’s a very niche problem, um, that, that, you know, people who listen to this podcast probably are more familiar with than other types of people. But like, when you have to choose your markdown processor, which as you said, like Brett, like that can be a problem. Like, like with, with using Mark or anything else, you’re like, what am I giving up? What do I have? And, and like for me, because I started using mul, you know, markdown, um, uh, largely because of you, um, I think I was using it, I knew about it before you, but largely because of, of, of you, like multi markdown has always been like kind of my, or was historically my flavor of choice. It has since shifted to being [00:58:00] GitHub, labor bird markdown. But that’s just because the industry has taken that on, right? But there were, you know, certain things like in like, you know, multi markdown that work a certain way. And then yeah, there are things in crammed down. There are things in these other things in like, this is just, this is awesome. This Brett: It is, the whole thing is built on top of C mark, GFM, which is GitHub’s port of common mark with the GitHub flavored markdown Christina: Right. Brett: Um, and I built, like, I kept that as a sub-module, totally clean, and built all of this as extensions on top of Cmar, GFM, which, you know, so it has full compatibility with GitHub and with Common Merck by out, like outta the box. And then everything else is built on top of that. So it, uh, it covers, it covers all the bases. You’ll love it Christina: I’m so excited. No, this is awesome. And I Brett: blazing fast. It can render, I have a complex document that, that uses all of its features and it can render it in [00:59:00] 0.006 seconds. Christina: that’s awesome. Jeff: Awesome. Christina: That’s so cool. No, this is great. And yeah, I, and I think that honestly, like this is the sort of thing like if, yeah, if you can eventually get this to like be like the engine that powers like mark three, like, that’ll be really slick, right? Because then like, yeah, okay, I can take one document and then just, you know, kind of, you know, wi with, with the, you know, ha have, have the compatibility mode where you’re like, okay, the unified mode or whatever yo

Ez New York Gulyás Virággal Magyarok Óriási Kalandjai Amerikában ep. 292   A mai MÓKA Podcastben Gulyás Virággal merültünk el New York legfurcsább és legszórakoztatóbb jelenségeiben. Ha azt hitted, hogy ezt a várost már semmi nem tudja felülmúlni, akkor készülj, mert most is sikerült pár újabb szürreális történetet elővenni.   Elsőként szóba kerültek az ICE raid-ek. Arról beszéltünk, hogyan hat ez a város mindennapjaira, a bevándorlók életére és milyen különös, gyakran feszült hangulatot teremt New York utcáin.   Ezután áttértünk a patkány miniszterre és a véget nem érő rágcsálóháborúra. Igen, New York tényleg kinevezett valakit, aki hivatalosan a patkányok elleni küzdelemmel foglalkozik. A magyar közönség valószínűleg már itt felnevet, mert ennél new yorkibb abszurditás kevés létezik.   A metró világa sem maradhatott ki. Virág mesélt a random táncosokról, prédikátorokról, vakond méretű patkányokról, a lopásokról, és a veszélyes metró szörfözés trendjéről, amely sajnos már több tinédzser életét követelte. Ha valahol mindig történik valami, az a New York-i metró.   Manhattan gasztrofrontja is szépen hozza a formáját. Például amikor egy péksütemény húsz dollár és ez senkiben nem kelt felháborodást. Hát persze, hiszen Manhattanben ez már majdnem akciósnak számít.   Nem hagyhattuk ki az Uber árakat sem. Arról beszéltünk, hogyan lett egy három kilométeres út 45 és 60 dollár között. Ez simán elér egy balatoni hétvége árát. A legjobb, hogy a helyiek ezt teljes zen állapotban tűrik.   A végére maradt a turisták új kedvence, a "I survived Times Square" póló. Valahol érthető, mert aki péntek este átvágott már ott, az tényleg megérdemli a túlélő kitűzőt.   Ha szereted az olyan beszélgetéseket, ahol egyszerre nevetsz, bólogatsz és néha azt kérdezed magadtól, hogy ez tényleg megtörténhet, akkor ez az epizód neked szól.   Írd meg kommentben, melyik történet lepett meg legjobban vagy milyen New York-i élményt mesélnél el te.   #MÓKAPodcast #GulyásVirág #MagyarokAmerikában #NewYorkÉlet #NewYorkMagyarul #PatkányMiniszter #NYCSubway #UberNYC #TimesSquare #ICERaid #MagyarPodcast #USAÉlet #NewYorkTörténetek #MagyarokNewYorkban

Majdnem zsidó – Virág Gulyás története antiszemitizmustól aktivizmusig | MÓKA Podcast Amerikából   Mi történik, ha egy magyar balettintézeti növendék egyszer csak zsidó ügyekért kezd el kiállni Amerikában? Hogyan lesz valaki a saját előítéleteiből építkező, elismert közéleti szereplő? És milyen lehet zsidónak tűnni, de nem annak lenni – miközben az egész világ az identitásodról vitázik?   Ebben az őszinte és sokszor provokatív beszélgetésben Virág Gulyás volt a vendégem – aktivista, előadó, blogger, a „Majdnem Zsidó” („Almost Jewish”) brand megalkotója, aki ma New Yorkban él, de Budapesten kezdte pályafutását klasszikus balett-táncosként.

Choreography copyright exists in a fascinating legal gray area where cultural ownership and legal protection often clash. When Alfonso Ribeiro attempted to claim rights to his iconic "Carlton Dance" from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air after Fortnite used it as a purchasable emote, his case was dismissed because the Copyright Office deemed the routine "too simple" - just three basic dance steps without sufficient originality. This ruling sparked crucial conversations about what makes dance protectable.The landscape shifted dramatically when choreographer Kyle Hanagami sued Epic Games over a four-count hook from his registered routine appearing in Fortnite. When the Ninth Circuit reversed an initial dismissal in 2023, they delivered a game-changing perspective: "Reducing choreography to isolated poses is like reducing music to single notes." This recognition that even short sequences could embody original expression opened new possibilities for dancers seeking protection.We explore how this legal evolution continues with Kelly Heyer's ongoing battle against Roblox for monetizing her viral "Apple Dance" without permission. With platforms earning substantial revenue from choreographic content, questions of fair compensation and proper licensing have never been more urgent. Meanwhile, international cases reveal how different jurisdictions approach dance protection - from China's rejection of single-pose copyright to Brazil's emphasis on proving tangible harm.Through these stories, we distill five crucial principles governing choreography copyright: basic movements remain freely available to all; originality exists in arrangement rather than individual steps; even short sequences can qualify for protection if distinctive enough; evidence of harm matters as much as creativity; and courts continually seek balance between creator rights and cultural freedom. As dance moves from stages to avatars in the metaverse, these principles will shape how we value and protect movement in the digital age.Ready to dive deeper into intellectual property's fascinating frontiers?
