Militaries are necessary for each community self defense, because stateless society means communities, and there is nothing in that concept preventing raider communities from existing and try to live off stealing/murdering other communities. It’s literally ancient history, before countries existed. What we call crime today is not always rooted on necessity, a post scarcity non authoritarian society doesn’t suddenly eliminates bad people trying to take advantage of others because is easier than doing your homework. Or fascists trying to impose themselves to others. Those people, they get the bullets.

someone watched that cgp grey video, good boy

Fun fact, the name Santiago, is basically the same as San Diego. Originally, it comes from the hebrew Jacob (ya-akov), then Sant Iago (Iago sounds similar to ya-akob, it’s the latinization of the name IIRC). I think Diego actually comes from shortening Santiago to Thiago, and then to Diego. Basically all comes from Jacob. In Spanish, the actual translation for James would be Jaime, not Diego. I don’t know what happened there or if Jaime and Diego as somehow related etymologically.

yup, I misremembered it being apple seeds, maybe they discussed it before moving to the ricin idea. I should rewatch bb

Usually you want to hide your man boobs, women’s clothing usually aims for the opposite.

Breaking Bad did this IIRC

Just today I was thinking about epoxi resin, like the hot dog.

Millennial here, I use the shit emoji

14 years old people find the number edgy and cool

Hello fellow 88 baby. When I was a teenager a lot of bands had 88 in the name for that reason. It’s a cool number, I hate that the nazis coopted it. Fuck nazis.

That happened only once.

Everyone loved it tho

Matter of fact I am. Also, I don’t know him.

It has Aryan Soldier in the name and they are worried about 1488 lol, this is a good one.

That would only happen if we give power to our ai assistants to buy things on our behalf, and manage our budgets. They will decide among themselves who needs what and the money will flow to billionaires pockets without any human intervention. If humans go far enough, not even rich people would be rich, as trust funds, stock portfolios would operate under ai. If the ai achieves singularity with that level of control, we are all basically in spectator mode.

It’s more about the vocabulary and accent, not the level of education and correctness of the speaker. Usually neutral spanish is understood in all the spanish speaking countries of south america and spain, because, well, it’s neutral.

A good example of neutral spanish usage in real life is dubbing. Most of our dubbing is done in Mexico, but the dubbing itself has no mexican specific words, mannerisms, or accent. Al dubbing is done this way, no matter the country, so only one version of the dubbing works for basically everyone.

As a matter of fact, there have been some experiments to challenge this, and use a more localized accent and vocabulary instead, and most went very wrong. The first Incredibles movie was dubbed with a argentinean flavor, español rioplatense. It was hated in Argentina, massive disaster, we pretend it didn’t happen.

Also sometimes, when dubbing, we pick accents of different countries for different characters on purpose. Most of Grim Fandango was dubbed in Spain’s Spanish, and some characters had Mexican and Argentinean accents, and that was relevant for the plot (Argentinean characters are shady people almost everytime). Think of the choice some media does to make someone speak English from England to make it sound more classy or something like that, basically almost every Spanish accent has its own stereotype.

It’s weird, because neutral spanish is the language nobody speaks, because local accents and lingo, but everybody likes to hear because it’s the most understandable.

I say, go for the most neutral vocabulary you can. You will have an accent anyway because it’s not your native language.

It depends on the reason I’m trying to learn the language. Neutral Spanish is a thing, it’s usually well received in most latin american countries. If you learn something too region specific, usually doesn’t.

I ran a server on a raspberry pi 3, paper was the only real option on that kind of hardware.

yes, it’s basic tribalism

OG Nazis were master manipulators, dressed cool as fuck and their propaganda machine was one of the best ever. Intelligent? There is no hard evidence of that, and their military strategies were poorly thought. They had fucking cool weapons and equipment, so maybe good engineers were involved, but that’s it.
