Does anyone know of any electronic musicians from the DPRK? in c/music@hexbear.net
[–] notthenameiwant@hexbear.net 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I tried contacting the embassy in London and they didn't get back to me :( . I know it's possible though, supposedly Xiangyu was doing something with them awhile back.

Does anyone know of any electronic musicians from the DPRK? (hexbear.net)
 

Hey, I run a small radio show, and I'm interested in featuring a few songs from artists in the DPRK. Specifically, I'm looking for electronic musicians. Besides what is on the wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_of_North_Korea), is anyone aware of other music that is coming out of the Juche state?

Anyone recommend some manga? in c/anime@hexbear.net
[–] notthenameiwant@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The movie covers a third of the actual story. It was made while the Manga was being published, so it left a ton out out of necessity. The biker gangs are more fleshed out, and there's a good amount of post apocalypse story telling. It is long as hell (2000+ pages), but there's still nothing like it.

Obligatory "Goodnight Punpun" recommendation. Also, the original Akira manga is a masterpiece, the movie doesn't do it justice (even though it's still pretty good).

(usa) is it legal to rent a billboard and put up someone's tweets in c/askchapo@hexbear.net

Putting up posters is cheaper and less legally dubious.

Looking for a Cum Town fan video (hexbear.net)
 

It's set in the style of a cinematic movie trailer, with a ton of glossy stock nature shots. It has (I think) AI Morgan Freeman as the voiceover. It's about 2 minutes long, and the punch line is something along the lines of "...it all depended on one fact, that he was gay and chinese". It got posted on /r/chapotraphouse a long time ago, and I haven' been able to find it since.

Have to disagree. "Rock Band" killed that one for me.

Netanyahu should run for president of the US in c/politics@hexbear.net

He's from Philly, so you know he's a fighter.

He'd win too. Why stop at being the head of a genocidal client state, when he can be the big dog?

If you want to pay my wages while I'm fucking around in court, be my guest.

Just saved myself a few hours with that one.

I've tried it, but I never noticed any buzz. Probably for the best.

It got so bad that Luis Arce was expelled from MAS last year.

Where can I find out more information on The "Derg" and east African Socialism more broadly? (hexbear.net)
 

I feel like I've heard quite a bit about Burkina Faso, Lamumba, and Egypt, but never anything about Ethiopia or Eritrea. What's a good place to start learning a bit more about these extremely large countries? I feel like most people memory hole these places like they do with Laos.

What are your favorite releases from 2024 so far? (hexbear.net)
 

Songs, albums, or EPs, I want to hear them!

Anyone have a better way to make money online than mTurk? (hexbear.net)
 

I'm also on Cloudresearch, but these sites are only getting me like $5 per day before I burn out. Are there better alternatives with maybe a little more effort or better pay?

Spoiler: Spec Ops: The Line is an OK game for the "shoot and cry" crowd (hexbear.net)
 

You get it all in this game, white phosphorous, lynchings, gunning down protestors, etc. The only positive of this game is that you get to gun down American troops in a video game with no pretense of doing this in real life(In Minecraft).

The worst part about this game is that war crimes are framed as inevitable. I literally can't progress in the game without gunning down civilians or shooting white phosphorous at the troops™

Like, this game would be good if there was once an anti-war message sprinkled in there. The fact that this producer can spread war crime porn is disgusting.

This game was marketed as the tough choices horror show of games, and boy did it fuck that up.

As an addendum: the campaign is kind of fun to play
