2023.06.02 00:29 HighOntology Civilisation EP06 “Protest and Communication” (Jun [email protected]:00 PM CDT)
| “Protest and Communication” [ JOIN HERE ] 🎭 With special guest stars Patrick Stewart and Ian Richardson! 🎭 In Deutschland’s realm, Dürer’s truth unfurled, Reformation’s fire, chaos hurled. Yet Shakespeare’s words, in England’s sway, Illuminate the human’s timeless play. Welcome to EP06 of Kenneth Clark’s Civilisation. From the visionary artistry of Albrecht Dürer, who revolutionized perception through his mastery of perspective and depiction of reality, to the the seismic impact of the Reformation led by Martin Luther, we will traverse the fascinating landscape of German contributions to Western civilization. In Act I, we delve into Albrecht Dürer’s era. His groundbreaking woodcuts, steeped in realism, redefined art, moving away from mysticism and symbolism towards precision and realism. Experience Dürer’s profound influence as his woodcuts invoke conviction, perceived as visual storytelling akin to photojournalism! Next, journey into the intellectual domain of the time. Erasmus and Martin Luther wrestled with faith and reason. Experience Erasmus’s translation of Saint Jerome’s letters and Dürer’s engraving of Erasmus at work. Dürer’s “The Night with Death and the Devil” resonates with Erasmus’s truth-protecting call. As we delve deeper, the Reformation’s contradictions emerge. Witness the massive destruction wreaked by Protestantism on cathedrals and art throughout Europe. Experience the turmoil of religious wars and the Catholic-Protestant divide, culminating in the St. Bartholomew’s Day massacre of 1572. Yet, amid chaos, a civilization takes root. Luther, Calvin, Tyndale, and Coverdale translate the Bible into vernacular languages, providing people direct access to Holy Writ, fostering knowledge via printing. Witness the emergence of an era where words influence Western thought, spurring nationalism. Finally, we arrive in Elizabethan England, where the vibrant tapestry of society unfolds. Discover the unique architecture, literature, and music that characterized this period. Marvel at the brilliance of William Shakespeare, a literary genius who encapsulates the pinnacle of human expression and intellectual honesty through his timeless plays. Prepare for a mind-expanding journey into the richness of German culture, the seismic Reformation, the awe-inspiring genius of Dürer, the intellectual odysseys of Erasmus and Luther, and the enchanting realm of Shakespeare ... with K Clark as our guide! Don thy finest doublet and hose, wield thy mighty quill, and join us for an unforgettable night of enlightenment and mirth! Evocative Quote Sampler From 18:55 — She sits in the attitude of Rodin’s “Penseur,” and still holds in her hands the compasses, symbols of measurement, by which science will conquer the world. Around her are all the emblems of constructive action: a saw, a plane, pincers, and those 2 prime elements in solid geometry, the sphere and the dodecahedron. And yet, all these aids to construction are abandoned. And she sits there, brooding on the futility of human effort. Her obsessive stare reflects some deep psychic disturbance. The German mind that produced Dürer, and the Reformation, also produced psychoanalysis. METHOD Please watch the episode before the event. We will then replay a few short clips during the event to refresh our memories for debate and discussion. A high-def version of this episode with remastered audio and enriched subtitles can be found here: Video Table of Contents Clark discusses the Reformation—the Germany of Albrecht Dürer and Martin Luther and the world of the humanists Erasmus, Montaigne, and Shakespeare.

2023.06.02 00:27 Odbody_AS2 In the last ep 'bloodline' scene, does Roman have the same views as Logan about Ken's kids?
R: Dad's view was... yours weren't real. K: What the fuck did you just say? R: Well, just not "real" real. Well, that's just what dad said. I'm just saying what dad said. K: Well don't say it you fucking cuck. R: They are a pair of randos. One is a buy-in. The other is half-Rava, half some filing cabinet guy, right? [then during the scuffle Roman blurts out, "You have no kids"]
At first I thought Kendall was shooting the messenger as Roman was quoting Logan's thoughts on the matter. But after a rewatch I kinda think he switched and started speaking for himself.
Any thoughts?

2023.06.02 00:26 crappyhappy_ Shipping personal belongings from NL to Singapore
Hi, I'm not an expat but a university exchange student who's really hoping to get some help. I'm approaching the end of my exchange semester in the Netherlands and would like to ship my items home because I know for sure the weight of my items will exceed the current baggage weight I've purchased with my airline - I thrifted some clothes, and bought some books as well as a lot of souvenirs for family (mostly magnets/mugs).
I want to ship about 15kg worth of items to Singapore. They consist of winter jackets, winter clothes, boots, books and backpacks. They're all things I've worn/used before so they're not new or anything. I checked on UPS (and emailed them too) and they said that there are restrictions on shipping personal effects so I don't think it's possible...? I was thinking I can label them as gifts but I'm worried about taxes/fees. So I tried to get a quote from DHL and it'll cost ~€230, although I'm not 100% sure if shipping personal effects is even allowed.
My questions are: 1) Is there a way to ship my items home using UPS still? They have the cheapest rates (€140 for 15kg) among the various shippers I've browsed so it'd be great if I could choose them. 2) Is it more worth it to ship all these home or should I just buy additional luggage weight for the plane and invest in a new luggage (that I can re-use after) and bring them home myself? 3) Are there cheaper options that I'm missing out on?
If you have any experiences, inputs or thoughts that could be helpful, I'd greatly appreciate them!

2023.06.02 00:24 moomoo4me Switching Solar Company Before Signing Contract?
I have gotten quotes from several companies and have narrowed down to two companies (both are elite on energy sage). I got company 2, which is a larger company with longer penetration warranty (40 vs 30 years) to match company 1 price of $2.91/kwh (15 x REC405 + IQM). They sent me the contract and i have been reviewing it, but i have not sign it yet. Then just today, i got an message from company 2 that they can get me the same equipment for $2.75/kwh. That is a substantial saving. I know i am not obligated to sticking with company 2, but i feel bad switching at this point. It seems obvious what i should do, but any advice on what else i should consider? Thank you

2023.06.02 00:24 AwarenessMuch8340 are you need hacker to upgrade my exam scores and change my grades
Hiring a hacker to change your grades may seem like an easy way out, but it could end up costing you more in the long run. If you are still struggling to change your grades and feel like you need some extra help, there are online editing services that can help you.
How to Hire a Hacker Change University Grades
There are a few key steps you need to take in order to successfully hire a hacker to change your university grades. The first step is to find a reputable source. You can find these sources by searching online or asking people you know for recommendations.
Once you have found a reputable source, the next step is to contact the hacker and explain your situation. Be sure to be clear about what you want to be changed and why. The hacker will then provide you with a quote for their services.
Once you have agreed to the price, the hacker will begin working on changing your grades. This process can take a few days to a week, depending on the complexity of the task. Once the work is completed, you will receive an email confirming the changes.
How to hack a university website portal to change your grades
The most common is to find a vulnerability in the website portal itself. Once you have found a vulnerability, you can exploit it to gain access to the portal. From there, you can change your grades.
The most common way to find a vulnerability is to use a tool like Google Dorks. Google Dorks is a search engine that allows you to find websites that are vulnerable to attack.
Once you have exploited a vulnerability, you can change your grades.
Conclusion
Hacking can be a complex process, and aspiring to be successful at it is essential. If you need to hack your grades, then hire a professional hacker to get the job done. I have already discussed why you should hire a professional hacker.

2023.06.02 00:24 Dikkgozinya Penhold councilor Shawn Hamm
The city of Red Deer just changed their profile pic to the pride flag to show their support. Shawn Hamm, a councilor for the town of Penhold an a pastor, got on their and commented this:
" Jesus Christ is Lord over every month, including pride month! Your identity isnt in a movement your identity can only be found in Jesus Christ! Repent and turn to Jesus!" (Hamm then quotes the bible) "Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be decieved. Neither fornicator, nof idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor theives, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God" I Corinthian 6:9-10 NKJV
Im thinking of sending the town a letter tomorrow. How can the town of Penhold claim to be in support of pride when he sits on the council? Is there anywhere in the Canadian Constitution Act that seperates church and politics like the USA? Would it apply here?

2023.06.02 00:21 autotldr Earth’s health failing in seven out of eight key measures, say scientists Environment
This is the best tl;dr I could make,
original reduced by 80%. (I'm a bot)
Human activity has pushed the world into the danger zone in seven out of eight newly demarcated indicators of planetary safety and justice, according to a groundbreaking analysis of the Earth's wellbeing.
We are approaching tipping points, we are seeing more and more permanent damage of life-support systems at the global scale.
The Earth Commission, which was established by dozens of the world's leading research institutions, wants the analysis to form the scientific backbone of the next generation of sustainability targets and practices, which extend beyond the current focus on climate to include other indices and environmental justice.
The Earth Commission notes that this is a dangerous level because many people are already badly affected by the extreme heat, droughts and floods that come with the current level of about 1.2C. They say a safe and just climate target is 1C, which would require a massive effort to draw carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
At a local level, for example in cities, it follows the World Health Organization in establishing a boundary of 15 micrograms per cubic metre mean annual exposure to small particulate matter, known as PM2.5, which can damage the lungs and heart.
"There are a number of medicines we can take, but we also need lifestyle changes - less meat, more water, and a more balanced diet," he said.

2023.06.02 00:20 DontLaughArt [TOMT] [1990s-2k] [Old looking "sciency movie"] video on YT. Old B/W film like in school in the 50s.
you know the old 1950's type Black and White films they used to play for us in class in the before times
this one was one of those, made in modern times (late 1990' - early 2k, i think) and hillarious
it was the same dull droning "science guy" voice but he was talking about some overtly needlessly complicated terminlogy ,function, sciency stuff
"if latitudinal cross inspection of the flange guide denotes quantum de-stimulation in the Olglebee joiners,consult the time dialation section of your user manual. Severe quantum de-stimulation in joiner interface coupled with incro-micro-metalental lube moistener #7 can incrimentally de-increase de-stimulation effectively re-stimulating joiner interface thus re-preventing thermo nuclear molecular active reactionary action."
i just made that quote up, but the whole video sounded like that and if you know even a little bit about machines or tools you listen and yer like...wait...what did he just say?!?!?
hillarious
if only i could remember the name, or find it, or both
thanks in advance :)

2023.06.02 00:19 Unjust_Whistle A Reflection on the RDR2 Video: (Rousseau was a Soy Boy, Burke was a simp for the past, and Dutch is an Enlightened Despot)
| https://preview.redd.it/bnf5szdssg3b1.png?width=800&format=png&auto=webp&s=e2fe085c686149b7aab7c019ef426cc15adcd01c The recent video Red Dead Redemption 2: Was Dutch Right (Sorta)1, by u/DJ_PeachCobbler , was a deconstruction of the flaws of the enlightenment. While watching I was hoping to see something about Rousseau, as all of that french revolution stuff was influenced by him. I was glad to see Cobbler use a direct quote that accurately described Rousseau. I love studying the enlightenment, and I have some reflections to share on the same concepts. This post will first discuss the involvement of Rousseau in the vid, then the Cobbler's analysis of Dutch as an Enlightened Despot, and then finish with commentary on how Arthur's attitude rejects Dutch's philosophy. The video's commentary on the origins of the enlightenment is great, but it won't be discussed here. Lets get the master of contradiction, the citizen of Geneva, the degenerate himself, Rousseau out of the way. This guy loved to have relationships with older women, and loved to expose his bare ass to them in public, then lunge backwards at them, hoping they would spank him. The dude ambandoned all his children to die in an orphanage, while being an advocate for proper child care. He called himself a citizen of Geneva, despite being banned from Geneva. He would confess to all this himself in his book "Confessions" 2. He did this while living with David Hume. He believed Hume was spying on him, and avoided him at all costs. It turns out the crazy fucker was right, and Hume was spying on him. Cobbler could not be more wrong when he said that his writing was dry and boring. Any book written by a deranged crazy person, who was correct in his paranoia, about the crazy shit he did is entertaining. Cobbler uses his philosophy correctly in a general sense, but since the title was about Dutch it would have been great to see some of Rousseau's other work. The Social Contract3 would have been great to see in the video. Not just for the first line "Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains", but also for Rousseau's "general will", and "legislator". Which lead to justification of every kind of violence, from Robspiere to Stalin. Rousseau would go on to burn part of his manuscript for The Social Contract because he thought it was dangerous, but what he did publish is the same enlightenment bullshit Cobbler discusses in his video. The use of violence for enlightened ideas is perfectly encapsulated in The Social Contract. Rousseau blends the enlightenment ideals of popular sovereignty with authoritarianism. Rousseau believed that the government should rule for the common good (The General Will). This arbitrary General Will is said to be easily identifiable by Rousseau. But since self interested individuals (like maybe criminals, or industrialists) will not want to push for the common good, then an aristocracy must enforce it. Rousseau goes further to identify the aristocrat, the "Legislator", that must condition the people to be receptive to the general will. In his book about the social contract Rousseau advocates for a "legislator" to enforce a vague "general will" on the people, for their own good. If Dutch read this, he would certainly latch on to it and use it as justification for his own control. This directly supports Cobbler's claim that the corruption of Dutch comes from enlightenment ideas, not just personal greed. When the gilded age, the founding fathers, and Tacitus are brought up it would have been great to hear more about Rousseau. In many ways the control over the gang Dutch says he is advocating for is found in Rousseau. Dutch's hypocrisy can be seen as Rousseau's hypocrisy. It is almost impossible to enforce enlightened ideals with sheer violence as a powerful leader, without becoming a despot. To be an enlightened despot then really means becoming a leviathan. Hobbes (a part of the late Scientific Revolution/early Enlightenment [1649]) says in Leviathan4 that life without a violent government is "Solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short". His solution to this is to have a government that strips the people of some of their individual rights, in exchange for order, this deal is not meant as voluntary. This is the original social contract. While people like Dutch claim to be acting in favor of the people's best interest, what they are really doing is enforcing a Hobbesian contract. The members of the gang are forced to participate in Dutch's schemes because he is the leader that secures the group, it is a part of the deal to follow what he says. The reason they follow is because of a belief in the ideals that Dutch will never uphold. Arthur's opposition to Dutch is described as just doing the right thing, or taking care of folk. Cobbler uses this to oppose the bullshit that people who take Rousseau's Social Contract to heart. However, it goes further than just denying the influences of the french revolution. Instead it is a fundamental disagreement on what the purpose of the gang is. While they are definitely criminals, the gang claims to be for it's members. Dutch sees this as a system that needs a leader to guide it, a la "legislator" from Rousseau, but Arthur sees it differently. Edmund Burke was a member of the English Parliament in 1789, he published an open letter named Reflections on the Revolution in France5 . In this letter he denounced the enlightenment ideals of the Social Contract. He would say that a country is an agreement between the living and the dead, as well as those who are not yet born. Where as Dutch sees the group as his responsibility, Arthur sees the group as a agreement where the security of the members are most important. Because the gang is not a medium by which ideals can be enforced, but a method for securing the people in the group. It is an agreement between the members of the gang to fight for the group to stay alive that kept it going, when Dutch decided to blow that up in favor of his idealism fueled fever dream the gang truly died. Whether this was in the last chapters of RDR2 or before the game even starts, does not matter. While Arthur would never say what Burke did, his attitude towards Dutch's so called "progress" mirrors Burke's response to the Rousseau fueled french revolution. If you haven't already, watch u/DJ_PeachCobbler video. I never saw a connection between the enlightenment and RDR2 before watching it, although maybe I should have. Our modern society is defined politically, in part, because of Rousseau and Hobbes. Include Locke and Smith into that for America. This has lead to us adopting the same contradictions of the enlightenment, Red Dead Redemption 2: Was Dutch Right (Sorta) shows that. Endnotes: - DJ Peach Cobbler.

2023.06.02 00:18 CreativeRock483 Ron has a pretty solid aim at moving targets and he knows how to hit it.
Found these two quotes on another site
“Good training for when we’re all Aurors,” said Ron excitedly, attempting the Impediment Curse on a wasp that had buzzed into the room and making it stop dead in midair. (Goblet of Fire)
Using a spell on a moving wasp is hard.
“Ron was great,” said Tonks warmly, relinquishing her hold on Lupin. “Wonderful. Stunned one of the Death Eaters, straight to the head, and when you’re aiming at a moving target from a flying broom –” (Deathly Hallows)

2023.06.02 00:17 SouthpawSoldier Martial Campaign; aiming to reach level 15-20 by conclusion
Hi all. Got a campaign simmering, and running into some struggles for details.
Party is currently 5th level. Current arc has them hunting bandits in the wilds, who had the audacity to attempt a raid on a city temple. Still a lot of work to do for this arc, but puzzling over next step too.
Once bandits are dealt with, the party will find gold and goods linking them to a neighboring nation; neighbor was supporting bandits to destabilize the region, making conquest easier.
Fretting at scope/scale of the idea.

2023.06.02 00:17 autotldr Kremlin Officials Continue to Use iPhones Despite U.S. Espionage Fears
This is the best tl;dr I could make,
original reduced by 38%. (I'm a bot)
As many as 30% of employees in the Russian presidential administration continue to use iPhones for personal communication, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday.
Peskov's comments came after Russia's Federal Security Services announced that it had detected "Anomalies" in some iPhones in Russia caused by "Malicious software" that it linked to "Surveillance operations by American intelligence services."
The FSB claimed that the malware was detected in at least 1,000 iPhones, including those used by members of Russia's diplomatic missions.
"We don't have the power to even recommend that," Peskov told journalists when asked whether the Kremlin had banned its employees from using iPhones.
In March, the Kremlin said it banned employees from using iOS or Android-equipped smartphones for official purposes.
Earlier this year, the Kommersant business daily reported that Kremlin internal policy staff, including those involved in President Vladimir Putin's 2024 re-election campaign, had been banned from using their iPhones for fear of espionage.

2023.06.02 00:16 autotldr Japan Goes All In: Copyright Doesn't Apply To AI Training
This is the best tl;dr I could make,
original reduced by 66%. (I'm a bot)
In a surprising move, Japan's government recently reaffirmed that it will not enforce copyrights on data used in AI training.
The policy allows AI to use any data "Regardless of whether it is for non-profit or commercial purposes, whether it is an act other than reproduction, or whether it is content obtained from illegal sites or otherwise." Keiko Nagaoka, Japanese Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology, confirmed the bold stance to local meeting, saying that Japan's laws won't protect copyrighted materials used in AI datasets.
Japan is also stepping up to help shape the global rules for AI systems within the G-7.
The academic and business sectors are pressing the government to use the nation's relaxed data laws to propel Japan to global AI dominance.
While Japan boasts a long-standing literary tradition, the amount of Japanese language training data is significantly less than the English language resources available in the West.
If the West is going to appropriate Japanese culture for training data, we really shouldn't be surprised if Japan decides to return the favor.

2023.06.02 00:16 DropkickMorgan Trying to find a case about an employee being sacked for a Facebook post about their employer
An employee had posted something on their private Facebook page about the employer and was sacked. I think they then sued for unfair dismissal arguing that their profile was private and it wasn't intended for the employer to see the post.
The court/tribunal ruled that once something is posted on Facebook it becomes public, because even if the profile is private and restricted to friends you can't control who they share it with.
There was a quote towards the end of the judgment along the lines of "those who post on Facebook do so at their own peril"

2023.06.02 00:15 JewJitzutTed What is the etiquette on going to a dealership knowing I will not put a deposit down today?
I have a personal rule that I’ll never buy without sleeping on the price yet. I went into a dealership today, test drove a car, asked for a quote and received a quote for 2 trim levels and asked for the estimated wait time. I admitted that I would not put down a deposit today. Am I an asshole?

2023.06.02 00:14 fridgey22 Best or recommended international freight-forwarding service?
I live in Australia and there’s often a lot of cards on ebay from US sellers that can’t or won’t post overseas.
There’s a couple cards I’m desperate to get and am looking to try one of these freight-forwarding services as a workaround to get cards from the US. Has anyone tried or had any experiences with a provider?
I’m really keen to know as a lot of reviews online are terrible.
(I’ve also requested some of the ebay sellers for an international postage quote but they tell me ebay won’t let them do it, as their account has the wrong status.)
Cheers!
