Have you have heard of the saying "to read someone the Riot Act", in the sense of warning someone / telling someone off?

I see it no problem in my Wafrn

@annehargreaves @neil @simonzerafa That's odd. The text shows in Tusky on my Fairphone 4 running eOS. There is no "Alt" button, it just shows immediately while playing.

@neil I think some of it was read to us when we were at a questionably legal rave they wanted to shut down? Or maybe that was a different act. Dunno. Seemed like they were insisting we leave anyway so we did.

@neil @simonzerafa yeah I can't find a way to access it on Moshidon

[neil@mastodon.neilzone.co.uk]

@tarix29 @simonzerafa

Can you normally see alt text for audio on Moshidon? Or is this clip unusual?

(Just wondering if it is a me thing, or a Moshidon thing!)

[tarix29@tech.lgbt]

@neil @simonzerafa I honestly don't know. I rarely see audio posts and can't seem to find one at the moment

[neil@mastodon.neilzone.co.uk]

@tarix29 @simonzerafa Fair enough

@neil Have just fallen down a fascinating Wikipedia rabbit hole on the subject of the Riot Act (1715); so thank you!
