Filthy peasants deserve for their life energy to be harvested via middle aged male sex magick

I notice a major trend of all the largest companies majorly shooting themselves in the stock with turbo greed, even more greed than normal. I feel like we're on the verge of a stock market slaughter.

"maximum ads", "X basic necessity as an investment", "price gouge everything via cartels/monopolies" and "X as a service" are the death nails of the current economic order.

I know the video isn't about that kind of conspiracy, but I find these similarities to esoteric lore fascinating:

Mercator said there is a Black Rock (rupes nigra) at the North Pole that is responsible for compasses pointing north, surrounded by 4 islands and with the water draining into the Earth like a funnel.

Also in the alchemical process of Magnum Opus or Great Work to create the Philosopher's Stone, black rock could be the end product of nigredo. Many alchemists believed that as a first step in the pathway to the philosopher's stone, all alchemical ingredients had to be cleansed and cooked extensively to a uniform black matter. This is also commonly represented by sol niger, the black sun.

That is commonly translated into political thought by homogenizing the whole world. There's the Nazi, Skull&Bones interpetation, burn the whole world until one Volk is left and then there's the peaceful panhumanist interpretation.

I wouldn't be surprised if the name was actually chosen to represent the Nazi black sun, you know how elitists be.

20m² for 700€ is an absolute steal, I've never seen any apartment that cheap before. Best I can get in my area for 700€ is a 5m² septict tank with 5 room mates.

I was wondering what the differences to Lemmy are, luckily they have this on their website:

Differences between Lemmy and PieFed:

Comments with -10 score are collapsed by default.

Communities are organized into topics. See https://piefed.social/topics.

Image-heavy communities can have a tiled/masonry view, like https://piefed.social/c/pics@lemmy.world

People who get downvoted a lot end up with a ‘low reputation’ indicator next to their name. You’ll know it when you see it.

Hide all posts based on keyword filters. Keyboard shortcuts.

Upvotes in meme communities do not add to reputation.

Better UI design (somewhat subjective!) Improved hotness ranking algorithm (subjective)

Voting is private.

Seems like a few nice QoL changes, but nothing substantial yet. We'll have to see where it goes in the future.

Personally I'd rather see a sort of P2P Lemmy that gives much more tools for community sovreignty.

Much more automoderation tools, optional automatic deletion tools, custom scoring algorithms, a solid per-community user reputation system that mods can filter/rank posts by, powerful client side content filters (like ML sentiment or topic filters), etc. One that covers anything from private chats, to group chats, to discord-like communities, to fully private Lemmy-like communities to fully public Lemmy-like communities. All in a secure and private manner.

Like a one stop shop for communication, that heavily emphasizes community and user sovreignty, covering anything from ephemeral chats to archival public content. I find the current ActivityPub ecosystem sorely lacking in those regards. We have some of those features but more bolted on rather than baked in.

 

Sadly I can't find a good quality version of the Japanese version, only of the horrible English version

 
 
 

Seems like this anime has been mostly forgotten, but it's a real gem. Similar to Girl's Last Tour, Haibane Renmei and I would dare to say even Studio Ghibli movies.

Posting this AMW because there's no high quality content about it on YouTube.
