  • Summary from the youtuber that made this video "The living philosophy":

    "For Nietzsche The Last Man stood as the opposite of the Ubermensch and the great danger of the "levelling" tendency of modernity. In this episode we are going to look at what Nietzsche meant by the Last Man and how his prophecy has come through. We look at The Last Man in 21st century society and what Nietzsche got right even while we should be cautious of fully embracing his ideal.

  • From the video description:

    "The British Library is one of the six legal deposit libraries for the UK — and the only one that doesn't pick and choose, or have to ask for copies. That's a lot of books to store, and the internet's only making it worse. ■ The BL: https://bl.uk ■ UK Web Archive: https://www.webarchive.org.uk/

    This video has a correction: it turns out the formal interview requirement for a reader pass has been dropped. However, you'll still need to get a pass, and you're not allowed to take books out of the reading rooms! You can see all corrections on the channel here: https://www.tomscott.com/corrections/

    How NYC Became a Rat Kingdom 🐀 | PBS Terra

  • From the description of the video above:

    "September 29th, 2023, will be etched in New York City's history as the day the skies opened with an unparalleled ferocity. The deluge was so intense that JFK Airport recorded its highest 24-hour rainfall since 1948, with an astonishing 8 inches pouring down.

    Brooklyn faced nature's fury head-on, as three hours of ceaseless rain equaled an entire month's average downpour. Witness water roaring into basements, stranded vehicles, and impassable roads that brought the Big Apple to a standstill.

    This video dives deep into the heart of the devastation, spotlighting the worst affected regions like Brooklyn and Long Island. From shattered rainfall records to streets that became rivers, experience the magnitude of NYC's epic flood crisis."

  • City Limits takes a multimedia look at how food waste is repurposed at the Department of Sanitation's 33-acre composting facility in the Fresh Kills section of Staten Island. The site is part of New York City's effort to operate "the nation's largest composting program" and limit the climate impact of its waste sector, which accounts for 4 percent of citywide emissions.

  • This summary is from the youtube channel that made it: History Dose.

    "The young sailor Sam Bellamy sails to the West Indies to seek Spanish gold and discovers a sea infested with thieves. Turning pirate himself, Bellamy navigates a back-stabbing and libertine underworld host to the pirates of Nassau, including Henry Jennings, Benjamin Hornigold and Blackbeard.

    The art is original and manually made by Joseph Feely. "

    Fuck That: An Honest Meditation

  • Small criticism, I think your first article on "The redditor's guide to how Kbin works" is the one packed with the most useful information for any newbie migrating from reddit or any social media so it deserves a sticky or some kind of mechanism to make it the first thing that pops up imho. Otherwise, awesome work. I thought the Artemis app was still in exclusive beta so it's good to hear it's available on the app store now.

  • The video above is a discussion between Louis Rossmann, a philanthropist and a programmer who use and advocate for the usage of open source software. The connection between all three of them is that the philanthropist heads an organization called FUTO that gives grants to people developing useful open source projects and Louis Rossmann (I believe) is an employee of that organization and the programmer Aiden is a recipient of that grant. The conversation goes over the complication in trying to monetize and fund open source software that's typically expected to be free all around.

    For those curious about the FUTO organization, you can find some of their links below.

    You have a team of 10 clones with you and no weapons, what's the biggest animal you could take down in a open field?

    Also what would be your strategy to taking down said largest animal?

  • Download the offline version maps of wherever you plan to stay/travel to. You can do this via google maps or OSM maps, at the very least it's helped me keep peace of mind when out and about.
