700 year old lost King Arthur manuscript found
Merlin becomes a blind harpist who later vanishes into thin air. He then reappears as a balding child who issues edicts to King Arthur wearing no underwear. He later turns up unexpectedly to a battle on a fire breathing dragon FTW. Still better plotting than the GOT final season

Microsoft bug report by Will Dormann
M$ upped their requirements for developers to submit bug reports; they won't entertain a submission unless it is accompanied by a video demonstrating the issue (reading words must be too hard for them). One disgruntled dev produced the following to demonstrate what could probably be demonstrated in 15 seconds. I hope many more devs do the same.

They don't make videos like that any more…
The other day in the car we were listening to the radio and Gary Moore's Over the Hills and Far Away came on. I never heard it before and was amazed by its seemingly unnecessary epic-ness. So I knew the video of that time had to be a gem. And boy, does it deliver. It is so 80s, it shits Rubik's cubes:
* Epic Hairdos
* Obvious sound/TV stage with fake moor fog
* Starts with a fair haired child getting an old timey story told to
* Medieval stuff and big heavy shirts open to the navel
* Massive gurning straight into the camera
My fave is the organ player dude. He's just living the life.

The full live version has 100% more epic mightyness, though less dodgy acting.

suprising how much of the schtick, tone, cutaways, and even a lot of the characters were already nailed in the pilot
Apart from a bit of animation polish and a few changes to the voice actors after being commissioned, the pilot could run now as an episode and it wouldn't look out of place. I'm assuming it's still going, haven't watched it in years

So it is exactly the same as the finished show then.
I tried to watch a 'new' episode a year or two ago. Just like The Simpsons, the pace has slowed down, the frequency of jokes has decreased, the cast sound like their recording studio has a carbon monoxide leak. It seems cruel and undignified to keep these shows going.

If you ever liked The Simpsons
I'd advise you to avoid the new stuff. Harry Shearer quit 10 seasons ago after season 26 and it had already gone 10 years too long by that point.
South Park somehow manages to stay fresh.

Any melody can be transposed up or down the musical scale and still be recognisable.
If you ignore the whole system of flats and sharps and treat each octave as a simple mathematical progression of 12 semitones (the 'chromatic scale'), so that a 13th semitone step gives you a doubling or halving of frequency (that's what octaves are). You just add 1 or more semitones to each note. People do it all the time to adapt tunes for instruments that have a limited range of notes. A prime example being a kiddy's xylophone with just six or eight bars to it.
Things only really sound out of tune if two different instruments or a singer are performing the same tune but with a different offset. Though offset by a whole octave and they sound in tune again.
You could just as easily apply a fraction of a semitone shift. You'd need a synthesiser or custom-tuned instrument to play it. Most people wouldn't notice. Though you might confuse / annoy anyone who's trained themselves to hear perfect pitches.
