I checked the source (Spanish) and it looks legit. He only meant to scare people though, not kill 16 people including kids.

Reddit has some redeeming features, namely that there are some small, ultraspecialized subreddits that never make the front page and therefore attract less of the typical Redditors. These places can be the only place to find those with specialised knowledge.

Yeah, a lot of artists in the music industry come from money.

Taylor Swift's parents are rich stockbrokers.
Billy Eilish's parents are snobby bourgeois from Silver Lake.
The dude from Mexican Institute of Sound's dad is a Universal Studios México executive.

Hell, even Zack de la Rocha's Dad was an artist type, but he went insane.

Tipping was adopted by Americans from their trips to Europe at the end of the modern era, when rich people still had to performatively supplement the service jobs that the rising middle and upper working class expected, but could not afford to actually pay. Waiting for a wealthy landowner to come and tip you for your act of menial service, you could perform the same task in a more purfunctuary manner for the less well heeled. Tipping is an act of class warfare.

In my country no patron is ever expected to tip. In fact it is discouraged, before the pandemic if you flew here, as you landed the message played in the cabin pointed out that this is not a tipping culture. I do tip in fine dining restaurants when the service is to be encouraged, maybe 5%. I also like to make a large tip to the barworkers at my favourite bar at Christmas, maybe $100-200 total but this is unusual here. You might tell a server to keep the change from a dollar or so, but I would say that the majority of my compatriots never ever tip, and when I visited the US I received both better and worse service that back home. I do not think that tipping provides better service to the end customer today.

Yes this is kinda cringe but Scatman John was a real cool dude who never really sought fame, was super positive and died of cancer he was concealing, shortly after collapsing during a performance.

Bird of the Year is serious business around these parts. The point is to raise awareness about native birds.

Exactly, this isn't the Cool Tech Dreams thread.

Here's something about the FTX collapse: apparently SBF wasn't just doing massive amounts of speed, he was abusing a Parkinsons medication that fucks with dopamine and has gambling addiction as a loving side effect.

Source is https://milkyeggs.com/?p=175. I don't know how reliable this blog is, but they do have visual proof of that drugs packaging on SBFs desk.
