Technically, the daughter of Frostí, which is a recognised masculine name in Iceland. And also her father’s name: they don’t use family names in Iceland (other than about 7 surnames grandfathered from the Danish colonial era, but those are uncommon), and people have one or two given names and a patronym, a system which has so far scaled well enough for Iceland.
Mullenweg shat the bed again?
Looks like he won a stupid prize
New Sacco and Vanzetti just dropped
Ireland is more likely to face sanctions within the EU than even Putinist Hungary (due to Germany’s historic obligations to Israel and Ireland not having veto buddies, as Hungary has in Slovakia and Italy)
They’ll just have to traditional-values harder
Or, the private-equity shell company that bought the name of the original studio from the company that bought out the company that bought them and shut them down 17 years ago.
It lets those with bitcoins cash out and leaves the taxpayer holding their bags. That’s it.
At least they got to see videos of girls dancing before they died. Those poor bastards got several North Korean lifetimes’ worth of dopamine thanks to cheap Android phones and relatively uncensored Russian SIM cards.
Germany will now have to use all its diplomatic clout to push to apply sanctions against Ireland within EU mechanisms, otherwise the next report of how it’s falling short of its historic obligations will look uglier than usual.
If you have an older machine, the canisters are standard and there are third parties providing cheaper alternatives in many countries.
It has been since the dawn of the recording industry
Unless they choose a life of crime, in which case, video evidence against them is inadmissible.
Germany appears to be regressing to the Biedermeier era of apathetic conservatism that followed the crushing of the upheavals of 1848
They own a big chunk (possibly a majority) of Spotify and extract hefty licensing fees from it. (Spotify moving into podcasting was apparently intended to find a market in which they could keep the profits.) The majors get far better licensing terms than indie labels or small artists would get, because they have the whip hand: Spotify has no choice but to pay up as not to become a platform without Taylor Swift/Ed Sheeran/Baby Shark/etc., which would effectively wipe them out.
Make no mistake, the three major labels (Warner, Sony and Universal) are reaping the vast majority of profits from Spotify.
Given how threadbare the NHS is after over a decade of underinvestment and privatisation by stealth, I doubt he or any C-suite officer would ever set foot in a NHS clinic.
MM/DD/YYYY would annoy me wherever it’s from, because it’s wilfully perverse.
and Guevara was a Stalinist. Though nobody’s perfect.
He probably commissioned it specifically to transform the appearance of his flabby-old-rich-guy torso into the very form of high-tech postapocalyptic hypermasculinity or some similar nonsense.
Sweden only made the change gradually about a century ago, with it happening first in urban areas. The merchant Clas Ohlson, after whom the dry goods chain is named, was the son of Olle something-other-than-Ohlson, and the first in his line to make their surname a family name.
Surnames that describe the individual (“son of Olaf”, “the blacksmith”, “from up the river”) work fine in small-scale societies, but are a problem for bureaucracies and other systems. IIRC, a lot of the pressure for standardised family names in Europe was to make things like taxation and conscription more manageable.
