RIP. That’s cruelty.

It’s the trickle before the flood 🤞

I did this on one of their videos just last week. Annoyed the piss out of me. I think they changed the title too.

They’re being very specific with the language, calling them “narco-terrorists”.

That’s post-tax €120K a year. Who even needs €10K a month? This has to be a piss take. Has to be. Brand new account too.

Oh yeah. Sure they’re already minted. Set for life.

Ah you say that, but I lived through the internet bubble. Jeez it was gruesome and then 9/11 hit the next year. Savage times.

Unless it’s considered a national security issue, which it might be, they’re getting fucked without the lube.

I deeply, genuinely, hope that the AI bubble bursts and they get fucked. It’s just so short sighted to not hold on to the safety rope.

Oh wow. It looks like it has. That’s very odd timing.

That’s magnificent. I use Firefox Focus on mobile as my default and it automatically does this for major sites but this sounds great.

Oh that sounds like a great one. Thanks.

The issue with this is that knowledge should be it’s own reward. Where I live college costs a pittance. If you want to study fine art, that course should be available and is.

What you’re suggesting sounds great in a very practical respect but would only further benefit capitalism at the cost of wider knowledge. Many of the things that are worth learning in life to so many would immediately disappear from college curriculums.

The goal should be to make third level education cheap enough that anyone can do it without crippling themselves financially.

The honorific would’ve probably been “my Chancellor” if it had been about his political authority

In his case it was very much meant as dictator.

There was debate after Hindenburg died and he took his powers with the plebiscite (as well as chancellor) about what his title should be. He didn’t want to harken back to Kaiser per the previous Reich so they went with Fuhrer.

It had been used within the party before that but came into common usage as his title at that time.

I’m in the thick of a 90 hour audiobook trilogy on the third Reich which is absolutely incredible (link) and Fuhrer is used liberally, partly to describe his ascent to absolute dictator as opposed to just Reich’s Chancellor.

I’m not defending shitopedia for one second! I’m just not sure it’s as outrageous as other shit that’s taking up our limited attention span at the moment is all.

Yeah I fully agree with this. I am thick in the middle of “Third Reich Trilogy” which gives an enormous amount of context to the word though.

If they changed it, it’s further evidence of scummy behaviour, but on its own it’s not a huge red flag for me with historical context.

Can’t recommend the books enough if you’re into that. The lad must have spent half his life in primary sources.

Thanks so much. I thought that would be the case but I wondered around things like “team leader” or “band leader” or whatever.

My guess was that it was forever tainted so I appreciate the context.

I mean the whole stupid Grokipedia thing is a shit show that will never take off, but Fuhrer is just “leader” in German. In it’s used context for Hitler it straight up means dictator and (iirc) only came into full on use after the plebiscite giving him full dictatorial power after Hindenburg’s death in 1934 (edit: He was already the Reich’s Chancellor and merged in Hindenburg’s powers with the vote to make himself full dictator / Fuhrer).

I’d welcome input from a German national - Is the word still used there?

Limbo is pretty great.

Cannot believe I forgot this. Absolutely incredible album. Every single tune a banger and such a unique sound.

They absolutely nailed the Zeitgeist with it.

Honorable mention goes to Moon Safari by Air. First time I heard every song on that album felt like I’d heard it before in a memory.

I still remember my first time hearing this too.

The dregs of a house party. Only a few chill people still up. Sun starts coming up and someone put it on. Absolutely perfect setting to hear that album for the first time.

I can immediately place myself in that room it seared itself into my memory with how well it hit.
