Haven't been here for a while! So many things happening in RL, also online Hoping to return in the near future, it is a lovely space.

Speaking about online - have been rather immersed in the Twitter campaign for the continuation of Versailles series:

1) either with a season 4: https://www.change.org/p/fan-for-a-season-4-of-versailles
2) or a spin-off for a fascinating character that is Fabien Marchal, especially since he is the one simply abandoned without an ending in the so-called "final episode": https://www.change.org/p/at-capa-drama-a-spin-off-fabien-marchal-series-for-one-of-the-best-characters-in-versailles

Not an easy thing to accomplish, but there are already quite a few signatures and hope. Besides, the worst thing would be not to try at all, right? ;)

By the way, the Twitter account for the campaign is @SaveVersailles. Fans are welcome to join in the effort!

 Is there any way I can return to the old version of Skype on my Samsung phone? I had the stupidity to agree to update it, and it hasnät been working ever since! Everyone is displayed as offline except for the test call, and there is no meaase history escept for three missed calls from last week.

 Am I simply so bad at searching, or are there really very few Versailles icons?

 So, Facebook does not want to send a confirmation email to my GMX account - nor to my mail.ru account! Does it mean that both addresses are not acceptable or that Facebook isn't functioning properly?
I wrote a message about the problem, and got a "thank you for your feedback" and nothing more.
Seems like my account is now forever tied to that stupid old address.
pilvi: (letters)
 I know my Russian mail server is probably just trying to make my mailbox more secure. But when after my move to Finland it started demanding that I enter a four-letter proof that I'm not a robot every time I accessed it, that was annoying enough. A few days ago the proof expanded to seven letters! That made me reconsider using the website, so I studied the available options for a less official mail which I could use to receive most of my social media letters.

I chose luukku.com, registered there and started tying my accounts to it - only to discover it doesn't read cyrillic letters! In other words, now the mail I get from livejournal or other Russian websites is going to look like links drowned in a sea of question marks.

Tying my Russian accounts to another Russian box now, but that was a major disappointment. I'd been hoping to shift to more international server options. Hadn't even considered a possibility of such a problem...

 It really seemed like I found the streaming service of my dreams, with all of those British series from Poirot to Midsomer Murders right there, a sign up away! - and it was halfway through that sign up that I discovered it is only available in the US!
I really should check out terms of service before starting to browse the selection...

 It seems that people here on Dreamwidth choose their journals to be Friends Only more often than on Lj. I understand their point, but this really makes it hard for me: I'd prefer to read at least some posts by that person before I subscribe. I mean, common interests in the profile are good, but they don't give a really clear idea of what the journal is like. And I wouldn't like to have to unsubscribe a short time later.

 Now I finally understand the latest wave of mass migration from Livejournal! -  or, rather, I've finally checked out the more detailed reasons. Semi-abandoning a blog can be dangerous: turns out I'm currently thinking of writing a post which would not be permitten byt the new Terms Of Service... unless I mark it as adult content. Or is it taking things too far? - after all, I was merely going to write about a tv-series... with a gay important character who was going to come up in the post.

Now thinking of abandoning lj after all. I mean, completely, not just by starting a second journal elsewhere. But, on the other hand, it is a hard decision. I've been there for many years... (I wonder how many entries like this one have been posted during the last months?)

But the irony is, I'm probably never going to write that post anyway. It will require me to watch Season 3 of "Borgia", check a few historical facts... and, finally, time! Now, which one of these is the most difficult thing?..

Thought of leaving the style simple and white, but there are so many incredible options to choose from! I've only seen a small part of them, though: at some point I accidentially closed the browser, and it made me suddenly remember I've yet a lot to do today :( So, I chose from among the styles I'd seen already.

I like to change styles with the season, though, so hopefully plenty of chances to try out at least several :)
