      The end of the 19th century—a vampire's wife is murdered, and the detective known as the "cage user" is called in to solve the crime. But there's more to the detective and the curtained birdcage he carries...after all, when solving a case involving a monster, it might just take one to know one!

      Discussion rules

      BEWARE OF SPOILERS. Since all episode discussions are within a single thread, here are some rules to help ensure revisits are safe from spoilers.

      1. How this thread is organized
      • Each top-level comment is a mini-thread for each episode discussion. A new top-level comment will be added whenever another episode is released.
      • All discussions must be posted as replies within the appropriate mini-threads only. No discussions should be posted as top-level comments.
      • Anything without dedicated mini-threads can be posted under "General chat".
      2. How to navigate and avoid spoilers
      • Use the "Collapse replies" button to find the appropriate episode discussions more easily, and to make potential spoilers less visible.
      • You can also use the links at the bottom to jump directly to each episode discussion.
      3. When and how to hide spoilers
      • Within each mini-thread, discussions about the current and previous episodes are freely allowed.
      • But, details about subsequent episodes and source materials are spoilers and must be hidden.
      • To hide spoilers, you can follow the "Expandable sections" part of the formatting guide.
      Tips on using "Expandable" format for spoilers

      Currently there's a flaw where if the comment is collapsed (by using "Collapse replies" or other ways), the hidden parts can still be seen in the small blurbs.

      A workaround is by further enclosing the spoilers in quote block. Check under "General chat" for an example comment here.

      Direct links to each mini-thread

      I made a little CLI app for backing up my tildes comments / topics.

      $ pip install xklb
      $ library tildes -h
      usage: library tildes DATABASE USER
      
          Backup tildes.net user comments and topics
      
              library tildes tildes.net.db xk3

      It creates a SQLITE file with HTML text in one of the columns. Nothing super fancy. Let me know what you think?

      I'm wondering if anyone here might be able to help me with this.

      We've bought a Amazon Echo Dot for my Grandma who's no longer able to see very well. The idea was to connect it to her Smart TV so that she would be able to navigate it using voice commands rather than the remote (which she can't see).

      I've been able to add the TV as a device on the Alexa app, however I'm unable to get Alexa to carry out any commands on the TV - change the channel, open an app etc.

      I believe that what I need to do is connect the TV to the Echo Dot via Bluetooth. Is this correct? Is it functionally a different thing than having something as a device in the app? Currently when I go to the TV under devices and click to manage linked Alexa devices, the Echo Dot is greyed out because it's already paired with a device (presumably the iPad where I've downloaded the app as there are no other devices connected).

      If the lack of bluetooth connection is the issue, I'll need to buy a Bluetooth transmitter for the TV has it doesn't have bluetooth capability. So I just wanted to see if anyone had any advice for me before I invest in another piece of tech.
