Oof. There is a note of necrophilia in these digital recreations of dead actors, even when their relatives sign off on it. I guess we will see more of it as the technology becomes more widespread, but it feels icky.

TBH I have a problem with cars, period. The ones I've had the most problems with are those that other people have driven in my immediate vicinity, but that wasn't because of any specific make or model.
Cars just suck, systemically and as a concept — and they make their drivers suck even more by association.
And naming it honestly would go against spin doctors', advertisement professionals', and capitalists' right to work — which in their case is sugarcoating exploitation. But I guess they have that right 😡
I'd thought Moffat would remember solving that mystery already?
LOL, the mystery is going to be, "Hey... who turned off the lights?"
Who are you talking to when there's nobody else around?
"Where do babies come from?"
"We told you already, they're cultivated on spaceships!"
...the joke being that according to their own image caption, they apparently published a publicity photo a week and a half ahead of the BBC' clearance date 😄
It's all good, I'm sure! It's a long standing business relation between the two institutions, and the photo doesn't seem to spoil anything important...
I really hope they'll do the old fade-aroo like in classic Who...
Oh no wait — after the 60th specials RTD was raving about all the past regenerations potentially being bigenerations? And 2 into 3 was always the vaguest?
...he wouldn't, would he?

Colourised "War games" special will feature actual regeneration, plus "recovered footage"?!
(www.radiotimes.com)
According to Radio Times,
this new version of the serial will feature a 'lost' piece of Doctor Who history – while the Second Doctor's regeneration into the Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) originally took place off-screen, the special edition of The War Games will depict the changeover on-screen.
and
We're also promised the new release – which will air on BBC Four and be available on BBC iPlayer – will feature "recovered footage not seen since the original broadcast".
Oh, I'm not even after specific styles per se, just... modern, capital-a Art. 🤷
On Twitter and later Mastodon there were artbots that posted images off WikiArt, and a good bunch of those were at least from post-WWII, so modern enough if not contemporary. That would really scratch a lot of my itch, but the devs went all in on one crypto scam or other...
I've used Matrix for a long time, both on desktop and mobile, and although I'd rather be rid of electron Element is pretty hard to beat...
One issue I hadn't foreseen with Element is that it only supports one account. I recently started a new one on a non-matrix.org server, and until I've figured out how to migrate, I use Fluffychat on mobile instead.
Fluffy is real smooth too, but has its quirks that make me kind of long for Element again.

OP clearly cites Firefox on Android; I experience the same on the Fennec fork.
