br00t4c, Unheard Louis Armstrong recordings to be released
UkMudeok, I'm hearing that the #bbc documentary on the #burningsun scandal is eye opening. I plan to watch it on the weekend. #kpop
notthatkaren, @s1m0n4 @UkMudeok I watched #burningsun this morning (the BBC has put it on YouTube). Yikes! I had recently watched the #kdrama Military Prosecutor Doberman and this same type situation was one it’s plot-lines. Not one you want to see actually happening in real life. It made me sad to hear at the end that the same stuff is still happening (allegedly) in the Gangnam clubs today- but then again what is to be expected when they acquitted to police officer involved of all charges.
#kpop
AnnaAnthro, @notthatkaren @s1m0n4 @UkMudeok I see that the Burning Sun #kpop doc from BBC has been posted by BBC to their YouTube channel https://youtu.be/9EEp1q_iMYc?feature=shared
kravietz, #BBC can’t get its mind whether they want to present #Russia narrative or international law, so some dumb editor pictured #Crimea as part of Russia but at the same time Donbas as part of #Ukraine. For this map, the editor would be arrested in Russia as it doesn’t show the “new territories” (Donbas, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts) but they would be (and already are) criticised in the West 🤦
The video is posted here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/cv2xgdynp91o
The screenshot reflects the state at 20 May 2024 10:00 BST.
partizan, @kravietz Probably, someone just uses "neutral apolitical Natural Earth dataset"
https://x.com/zverok/status/1783560948646621601
Apache Superset project has fixed it partially (added Crimea to Ukraine), but their stance is also very "neutral apolitical", they haven't removed Crimea from Russia (to make both sides happy)
kravietz, By the way, yesterday evening #BBC updated the video and fixed the map

BlumeEvolution, German Ja, ich plädiere dafür, auch beim #Automobilverkehr endlich die „externalisierten Kosten“ zu sehen, von #Mitweltschutz bis zu Unfällen.

benjamincox, Listening to the 1800 Seconds On Autism podcast from the #BBC, which is far less dry than a number of other podcasts on the subject I've tried. Can recommend for any #ActuallyAutistic people looking for an informal chat about their ND-ness.
drdjohnston, I have uploaded my paper on Stephen Knight's BBC Dickens Adaptations and the Gothic Representation of History to Humanities Commons! See it at https://hcommons.org/deposits/item/hc:65969/

PhilipCJames, Good Morning, all
The Heir "flies" helicopter after taking over the family business from his papa (whereas the Spare actually flew them in combat).
William sat in the front seat of the Army Air Corp Apache Longbow attack helicopter. As any fule kno the front seat is where the gunner sits; the actual pilot sits behind the gunner in the rear seat...
Either #BBCNews doesn't know, or doesn't care, or #BBC is worried about losing its Royal Charter?
PhilipCJames, @Wen Willy? Or Harry?
Wen, @PhilipCJames Could be. I’m not up on their royal personages. 🤣Although thinking about it, ‘Charlie’ might be appropriate, nothing like moving on the succession.🤨
soheb, Jonah on BBC Breakfast giving that MP in charge of water pollution a right grilling really made my morning! 💪 😂
soheb, If you are wondering what I’m on about, new bathing sites have opened up today despite the fact the water rating is “poor” (means it has a ton of 💩 in the bathing site)
markhughes, (edited ) Mr Holmes (Ian McKellen on #BBC 2) or #genocide ignoring #Eurovision on BBC 1.
Not a difficult choice for me.
Don't feed on the deaths of 14,000 children tonight. Make a statement that #genocide, and the support it has from corrupt UK & US governments is unacceptable to you.
Or not, but live with your choice whatever it is. Don't pretend you care if you can't bring yourself to not watch it.
#Israel is murdering civilians en masse. Are you ok with that or not?
#Eurovision2024
happyborg, #DrWho has gone down the pan.
At the start I thought this was a refreshing revamp of a beloved formula that was staying try to its essentials.
Lots to like in the first few minutes. But apparently it's now a way to force it into other tired, long exhausted formulas that assail us with discord.
msdropbear42, Just finished new #Who Ep 1, #SpaceBabies, on #BBC. Oh dear. Twas less Timey Wimey, more samey samey. I was decidedly underwhelmed, sadly. Now, to do Ep2, or not? 🤔 🤷♀️

jonspark, Today marks 25 years since the BBC News theme song was composed.
It's still an absolute banger.

LALegault,
br00t4c, Spaghetti measure? Dog toy? What is Roman object found on hill?
MugsysRapSheet, @br00t4c
I think I already answered this. I believe they are "#BuckyBall" joints.Slide some sticks or tree limbs into them to easily build the framework for a portable shelter.
The protruding "balls" would make it easier to slide the completed structure into place across the ground.
Much easier to carry around than entire tents with poles & canvas.
(If I'm right, they predate Buckminster Fuller's invention by a couple of thousand years.) 🤔
iamdavidobrien, Just watched an hour-long programme on #bbc #iplayer on a 2009 MacBook Pro.
Running off the battery the entire time.
1 hour streaming HD video on a 15 years old device.
The web was alway designed to be backwards-compatible.
It is possible to design hardware with a 12-20 years lifetime.
We can do so much better.

fulelo, 'Martine Croxall told the tribunal that “discrimination is baked into #BBC pay structures,” adding that the corporation “grinds you down” and “breaks you” during equal pay disputes.

fulelo, Statement from the #BBCFour - Karin Giannone, Kasia Madera, Annita McVeigh and Martine Croxall:
“We are pleased the tribunal has agreed our four discrimination claims should be heard together, claims the BBC’s lawyers tried to split.We remain committed to seeking equal pay despite the BBC’s lawyers relying on a novel argument to prevent our claims progressing.
We await the judge's written ruling, to which we will give further consideration.”

mikemathia,
N0ZB, This sounds like a joke but was true:
https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-39633603.amp
94 years ago, on 18 April 1930, the BBC's news announcer had nothing to communicate. "There is no news," was the script of the 20:45 news bulletin, before piano music was played for the rest of the 15-minute segment.
The wireless service then returned to broadcasting from the Queen's Hall in Langham Place, London, where the Wagner opera Parsifal was being performed.
simon_lucy, Ah BBC.co.uk is now fucked because it challenges for a login on the News sub website. I guess they'll have to do all the netpromoter crap all over again.
It was abandoned in 2010 when the reach made in the UK was 70%, I imagine that will disappear now and that they'll also have to let through robots to get on Search pages.
Another nail in the coffin of the BBC Service Licence.

fulelo, @JSharp1436 @DeeGLloyd the funding is being cut left right and centre and there are almost no good options left for bbc ws
fulelo, @JSharp1436 @DeeGLloyd happy to hear about the options you are looking into before it will be too late
Lazarou, Has Michelle Mone paid back the money she grifted from the Taxpayer yet?
I ask as the BBC has Angela Rayner as the top news story again....
grb090423, Does anyone know, has the BBC given up with The Sky At Night series?
Chrislintott, @grb090423 we were on last week!
grb090423, How on Earth did I miss it. When I checked when it is next on (12 Apr) it said no upcoming broadcasts listed for this programme. Maybe it hadn't yet updated.
Thank you for taking the time to respond though.
I will find it on Iplayer 👍
