@MarioBojic I mean they only thrive with censorship. Those parties can’t handle freedom of information or speech.

🚨🇩🇪German Greens and the Left are QUITTING X en masse! These WOKE parties posted nearly identical messages on their X profiles, announcing they’re leaving the platform over what they call "chaos and disinformation." This might just be the best thing to happen on X in months.

@Diabloseek @MarioBojic The person who posted is passing this one area as "all of France" which isn't true. I can pick Kensignton, Philly in the US and say "all of the US is filled with Phent addicts."

🚨🇷🇺More and more cities across Russia are drowning in trash due to fuel shortages and sanctions crippling basic services. Just kidding again - this is Macron's France, where it’s easier to catch Ebola than to get basic human rights.

@LXg69 @MarioBojic Yeah Im regularly in France. Like at least once a month. My position stands. Paris is a shithole but France is a big country and most of it isn't Paris.

@SidKingsley @MarioBojic Damn, man, just damn. Get off Île Saint-Louis and travel to one of the arrondissement that even the police will not enter. Those run by warring African gangs.

@9mmsmg Yeah as an American living in Austria 10 mins from the German border the levels of propaganda in the news here is insane.

@Anonymous_TA Yeah was in Barcelona back in January. I wouldn't say I felt unsafe but the vibes definitely sucked. City has a dystopian empty feeling. Left a pretty bad taste in my mouth and won't be returning.

If you have never heard Song for My Father, stop what you are doing. Horace Silver, 1965. The title track samples the melody his father sang in Cape Verde.

Guilt Tipping in Deutschland: War gerade Eis essen. Am Kartenlesegerät kommt vor der Zahlung die Trinkgeldfrage: 5%, 10%, 15% oder individuell. Für einen Eisbecher zum Mitnehmen! Und jeder in der Schlange hinter dir sowie der Kassierer sieht auf dem Bildschirm was tippst. Dieses System kommt aus den USA und breitet sich hier gerade überall aus. Restaurants, Cafés, Bäckereien. Wichtig zu wissen: In den USA verdient ein Kellner als Grundgehalt 2,13 Dollar die Stunde. Ohne Trinkgeld kann der seine Miete nicht zahlen. In Deutschland jedoch bekommt jeder Kellner mindestens 13,90 Euro die Stunde, egal ob du Trinkgeld gibst oder nicht. Wir übernehmen gerade ein System das für ein Problem erfunden wurde das wir gar nicht haben.

Cymande is still touring behind Renascence. A band founded in the 70s blending funk, jazz, soul, calypso, and rock. They helped build the foundation hip-hop sampled from. And they're still here making new music that sounds like it never left. If you haven't heard them, start now.

Sonarworks surveyed 1,100 producers about AI. The biggest fear isn't losing their jobs. It's losing originality. Producers are worried about a flood of competent but generic music drowning out anything with a point of view. One in five already uses AI regularly. Almost half have experimented. But only 20% feel positive about it. The future producer is a creative director. The ones who last will be the ones with taste.

As someone who lives 2 hours from the Italian border and go regularly to Italy. The US does pizza better than Italy period. I’m not saying every pizza in the US is better but it’s much easier to find good pizza in the US. Italy is the hardest country to find good quality food. Does it exist? Yes. But you are going to have to hunt and google reviews aren’t going to help you as they are mostly lies and inflated. This tends to piss people off when I say this but if you have only been to Italy on vacation then your perception will already be warped with rose colored glasses from the thrill of traveling to another country. Once you’ve lived there long enough you realize Italian food in Italy is mostly hype and they’ve done a great job at romanticizing the cuisine but quality food is few and far between.

Suno just raised $250 million at a $2.45 billion valuation. They generate a Spotify catalog's worth of music every two weeks. Meanwhile Udio pivoted entirely to licensed remixing after the lawsuits. Smart move. The companies that survive the next five years will be the ones that figured out licensing first.
