Sorry to bug you again ...

Don't know if this is just me or not ... with the new permalink page, when viewing one that has a dead video (such as this example) I just get a big blank grey screen where the video should be, which makes me think maybe the page isn't loading properly or something. If I opt out of the beta, then I see the YouTube player window and if I press play I get the message "this video does not exist".

Is there anyway with the beta version to better convey that you're seeing a dead video and not a possible browser error?

Thanks Keep up the good work!!

Update 1.2 will add a Leonary Nimoy Memorial station in orbit around Vulcan (LHS 3006) to Elite: Dangerous -- well done, Frontier Developments.

"What I'm exploring right now is the subject of my own mortality. It's an area that I'm curious about, and I'm researching it to see if there's a photographic essay in it for me. If images don't start to come, I'll go to something else." - Leonard Nimoy

Totally made me imagine an extended version of the Spock scene here, with Kirk vs. Spock music, where Spock's only reaction is a Leonard Nimoy classic eyebrow raise.

It occurs to me Nimoy would make an awesome Gandalf nowadays.

My secret shame is that I actually owned the Leonard Nimoy album on which he sang 'The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins' as well as 'Desiderada' ("go placidly amid the noise and haste...")
In my defence, it was the early-70s and the dawning of The Age of Aquarius...

I don't even know what the advertising rules are here in the Netherlands, but it really jumps out at me that the competitor is so explicitly mentioned (in the Dutch commercial Nimoy would drive an undetermined eastern europe car I would guess).
There it is at second 37, the 'CLS 550 Mercedes sucks compared to our Audi'. (I know nothing about cars, but from what I know about commercials I'm going to ahead and assume that that's actually incorrect)

The bit with the dying and the hand on the glass, now that's Nimoy comedy gold!

Interesting, but also seemed a little arbitrary in their choices of 'milestones'.


I know. Two Words.
