Neither here nor there, but happened to catch an "Officer Krupke" rendition at additions to my grandniece's high school interpretation of "West Side Story", and am flabbergasted at what these lyrics got away with in 1961 Amish US.

Just ran across this cute Herb Alpert "Puttin' on the Ritz" interpretation.

As good an explanation as any of why my first girlfriend in high school, both my ex-wives, and my current flatmate were/are all dancers.

@EU_Commission And as a resident in ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡น and an ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ citizen, I can get on this ferry I just happened to walk by at the Vienna Canal harbour, and ride it up or down the Danube without even showing an Id.

I have now been following both and chess AIs for years, and what is most fascinating is that they do NOT play as automatons, but, quite the contrary, take beautiful, inspired risks which will not always pan out, but produce magical games.

Perhaps art is nothing else than superior thought? And where does that leave self-awareness and a (silly) ?

And this from a company founded by a man (John Harvey ) who invented Cork Flakes as an anti-masturbation food.

His sanitarium even required all new applicants to submit to an enema by (you can't make this stuff up) the Rear Admiral.

Wadda you know? It worked!

@crossposter
crossposter.masto.donte.com.br

There's a 60 to 120 sec. delay before the toot becomes a tweet, but that's fine now that I know it works!

Next is to go back to cross-poster options and see if some fine-tuning will also do the trick.

Especially the optional trigger-word to execute a cross-post seems very useful, since not everything needs to be disseminated.

@Andy_European

Found out why the cross-poster wasn't working for me: entering handle, with or without server/instance, triggers the reply "Please enter a valid email address". Who would have thought, that it isn't the address used to create the account, but this: Max_in_Vienna@mastodon.online?

IAC, set it up unidirectional since I won't be tweeting, only tooting, and added the trigger to control what is being cross-posted.

So here goes my first cross-post!
