       @peter This is going to sound really, really dumb, but what exactly do "box set" and "series" mean in British English? I'm evidently not parsing those terms completely correctly...

       @peter Stateside, the show itself is called a "series," which groups episodes by annual seasons. The term "box set" never made the leap beyond physical media.Yanks would probably say "it has to be the worst series (or show) I've watched a whole season of."Looks like there's a whole Wikipedia subsection discussing the regional differences in terminology! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_show#Seasons/series

       @peter Is "box set" especially used on streaming platforms to denote collections that have all episodes of a given series / season available?E.g., I've noticed a lot of shows on iPlayer and All 4 are incomplete because earlier episodes have expired.

       @peter I'm really uncomfortable with the precedent that sets.We have completely relinquished control over our own devices and become sharecroppers. I pray that the Web can mount a credible challenge with PWAs, but we're still all at Apple's mercy on iOS.None of this is news, but it just feels so viscerally wrong right now... Shouldn't our civil institutions hold  Facebook accountable somehow, and not a private entity?

       Just finished Book 5 of the Wheel of Time. Started reading the series for the first time earlier this year. Only 9 more books to go.Current assessment: this could've been a really tight trilogy.

       @byron I think Matrix can (experimentally) work like that today: https://matrix.org/blog/2020/06/02/introducing-p-2-p-matrix

       Flight delayed because of bees in the external power connection. Pilot: "Yes, that's a new one for us too."
