Re: Amusing Science
Alternatively just a plain old link works for me. Either in the url tags or just the url itself if it doesn't auto-embed. I don't mind clicking.

Worth a read (trust me):

(there's a few typos along the way, but you should probably be able to decipher it.)

Re: Amusing Science
One more fucking time: Knock of the autoplaying bullshit.
This shit is really annoying. Please make it stop.
I do not want to click on a thread that has new posts and be flooded with a big ration of bullshit audio from all the crap that has been posted (mostly from Vimeo) that immediately begins to autoplay with the goddamned motherfucking audio up and unmuted.
Pay attention to what you're fucking doing peeps.
Now, on the other hand, is there a way to block entire threads wholesale? Maybe that could fucking well work.
Block Vimeo from autoplaying. That is the answer.

You can lead them to knowledge, but you can't make them think.
