Good morning.

@clacke The page for the island of Usedom suggests that while tourism was important 1945-1990 it took place in the context of all facilities being run from off-island VEBs and with many military facilities on the island. Likely meaning whoever was allowed to stay there was tightly controlled? With no 'celebs' from anywhere. And probably also means an absence of statistics.

@clacke volkseigene Betriebe, iow gov owned enterprises. Who, in my reading of that page would send staff and their families there to holiday as a perk.

European Commission
🇪🇺⚖️ Today is a good day for European citizens, tax justice, and fair competition.
In its final judgment, @Curia has confirmed our 2016 decision that Ireland granted illegal aid to Apple, requiring the release of up to 13 billion euros in unpaid taxes.
The court has also upheld our decision against Google for abusing its dominant position by favouring its own comparison shopping service and the resulting €2.4 billion fine.

Now the UK is well and truly back in school, here's a mini-thread on how we pick and draft posts!
Our number one rule is we need a verifiable date for something a woman did. We don't do birthdays. We only sometimes do deathdays.
This was a very silly rule as it has meant a lot more work.

Sólo una par de noches pude salir este verano a por nuestro centro galáctico. Esta imagen es de una de esas noches, en una breve escapada a la otra isla capitalina y con el Teide de coprotagonista.
Vendrán tiempos mejores…

@maffeis There is a least one youtuber in the US who drinks them and says they're probably not good for his health but they help him keep his videos on schedule.
I wonder if they're even legal in Hong Kong. I certainly haven't seen them here. Or maybe I have and just wasn't aware.

The tip of the iceberg: The Russian-paid influencers that are investigated in relation to the Tenet scandal are only 6 out of a total of 2800 influencers on a list maintained by a Russian disinformation operation.

@mcc missing a fifth option:
tech bros are so egocentric and stupid that I can't believe it hasn't already happened.

I would like to take the HDMI out and Headphone (jack) out of my laptop and convert it into an HDMI (audio+video) signal that would be understood by a TV.
Does such an adapter exist?
I seem to only find to do it the other way.

Historia Civilis: "The Trial of Charles I (1649)"
An abridged reenactment with simple geometric representations of the rooms and parties, really interesting and in parts pretty funny. I learned a lot about this pivotal moment in British history.
Some really bizarre people in the comments, which is interesting in its own way.

#writersCoffeeClub 9/8: The Hero's Journey is garbage. Discuss.
I avoid writing Hero's Journey narratives because they're deterministic. If the reader recognizes it, it drains the novelity out of a story and turns it into a Plot Coupon Quest—in which the protagonist has to ramble all over fantasyland, collecting magic Plot Coupons, until they have enough to send off to the Author for an Ending.
NB: it's OK to run something that initially looks like a Hero's Journey then takes a surprise twist.

@Remittancegirl @cstross : the point is that there’s a huge market for throwaway books that repeat the same familiar, feed-good story.
Some would say that this is the majority of books (and movies).
If you want to sell your story to Hollywood execs, following the Hero’s journey is probably a good idea.
If you want to create something original, it worth studying The Hero’s journey in order to not repeat it unconsciously (as we have been nurtured with books/movies from this cannon)
Charlie Stross
@ploum @Remittancegirl Naah, for Hollywood, Hero's Journey is old; these days it's all Save The Dog (or whatever cult formula came in after that, there's a new one every generation).

@cstross It was eye-opening for me to try reading The Hero with a Thousand Faces and not just derivatives. It's obsessed with Freud! I had always heard things like "the Father is metaphorical" but the original is very clear that the gender of each character matters immensely, for Freudian reasons. It really undermined my remaining faith in the system.
Then I learned about kishotenketsu and how the Hero's Journey doesn't actually work to describe many stories anyway.
