Are you telling me both of these LA based "comedians" are retarded cucks who are fucking/fucked a crazy bitch?In Maddox's new video on Dick he reveals emails from 80s Girl showing that she actually tried to get back with him after they broke up and tried to get him to go on a vacation with her to Mexico(that means sex) after maddox already got with another girl.
Dick Masterson is a cuck and 80s Girl was actively trying to monkey branch back to Maddox all the while she was around him.
The time stamp for this is right at the 2 hour mark on the dot.
Many are saying their accounts are all fine now.@Null Jersh, I got a interesting topic to cover and it just happened today: Sony is going on a full censorship campaign by banning PS4 & PS5 PlayStation Network Accounts left and right! So far no one knows why. I have a PS3 & PC but mostly play on Nintendo Switch & PC so I logged in on my old PS3 as soon I read the article since I was curious and My PSN account is fine.

Something really shady is going on especially with no official statement from Sony & it is as shady as that Nigger Faggot from Empire: Jessie "Juicy" Smullet faking a Nigger Faggot hate crime on a winter cold night of Chicago....![]()
Suicide is the only solution.
And move on from there.Agree to disagree. I still believe hbomberguy's take and think Internet Historian is in the wrong, but I can see why others think Internet Historian is in the right, since copyright laws are a shitshow. Anyway, agree to disagree, and onto the next topic.
I'm curious how would Josh cover the hbomberguy and Internet Historian situation in today's MATI stream, since the hbomberguy thread is a huge shitshow with a lot of Kiwis (including me) vehemently disagree on Josh's and other Kiwis' opinions that Internet Historian is still in the wrong. The thread is still talking about hbomberguy's take on Internet Historian instead of the rest of the contents of hbomberguy's video.
Since Internet Historian is one of the Internet (and the Kiwi Farms)'s biggest e-daddies and I assume Josh's audience despises hbomberguy no matter what because he's a smug and arrogant Breadtuber, even if his video is informative and convincing, I'm expecting a good portion of viewers in Rumble, Odysee, and Kick to not share Josh's opinion.
Ideally, since nobody can convince each other's mind and everyone is getting angry, hopefully Josh will end up stating:
And move on from there.
Internet Historian did a video called Man in Cave, in which it got struck down on YouTube because his video was plagiarized from a Mental Floss article. Internet Historian then re-uploaded the video, crediting the author of the Mental Floss article, and editing in and out parts with the author's approval. The big debate in the Farms between many kiwis and Null/other kiwis was whether Internet Historian is a good person or not because he could have gotten away with plagiarism, which was the main idea that hbomberguy brought up in his segment on IH. If you want to agree/disagree on this notion, I recommend doing in the hbomberguy thread or the IH Appreciation Thread.QRD on what IH did that was "wrong?"
> Islands have played a key role in the development of the modern global economy as trading and military outposts, tax havens, and nuclear test sites serving colonial powers. In addition to their status as strategic economic and geopolitical satellites, islands are also special places that “have long been regarded as ideal sites for experimentation, in fiction and in reality, with their straightforward boundedness presumed to provide unambiguous limits to scope, ambition, and (if all goes wrong) contagion.”1 Today, so-called Small Island Developing States are at the center of the development of central bank–issued digital currency. Their governments’ efforts to capitalize on digital currencies—as well as the accompanying discourse of fast-tracked economic development and democratization of the financial system promoted by the states and the technology and political entrepreneurs who court them—reaffirm the role of islands as sites of experimentation, this time as fintech laboratories.
> Today’s CBDC experiments illustrate how islands are perceived as a “hosting paradise” for fintech entrepreneurs, as sites where new (de)regulations can be tried out and new sociocultural dynamics formed.5 Islands are marketed as the ideal environment for fintech experiments, and digital currency and blockchain technology are promoted as innovative solutions that can propel these islands into the future and simultaneously celebrate their cultures and histories. Small island developing states’ banking infrastructure is often limited, fragile, and in need of modernization. Geographically, they are small enough that pilot projects can be rolled out quickly. Environmentally, they are at risk of being submerged and in dire need of financial and technological resources to address the issues caused by climate change. And, significantly, there is considerable profit to be made for those fintech entrepreneurs partnering with governments to develop and promote CBDCs. The services they offer include developing the digital architecture on which these currencies circulate and advising on the regulations that will shape the future of these island nations. Tropical beaches have become fintech sandboxes, but at what cost and with what potential consequences?
> According to their proponents, CBDCs, which can be exchanged for goods via smartphones and cash cards, can facilitate economic activity, accelerate integration into the global economy, expand the range of financial services on offer, and boost economic growth and competitiveness. They can also be used for social engineering.
> The Bahamas’ Sand Dollar was officially introduced in two pilot regions, first in the Abacos in December 2019 and then in Exuma in February 2020. Described as the “digital version,” or a “digital representation,” of the Bahamian dollar, the initiative was received with enthusiasm; 1,200 participants enrolled, more than double the initial projections of 500.10 The currency is issued by the Central Bank of the Bahamas through authorized financial institutions (AFIs). There is an official Sand Dollar app, but AFIs may have their own applications as well. Currently, only Bahamian individuals and businesses can transact using the Sand Dollar. Funds are stored in a multi-tier digital wallet which users can access via a mobile phone application, either the Sand Dollar app or the AFI’s, or a physical card. To send money, a user scans a QR code or enters a unique custom name. In February 2021, Mastercard and Island Pay, a payment service provider licensed by the central bank, announced a new program that gives users of the Sand Dollar prepaid card the option to convert the digital currency to Bahamian dollars so that they can use the Mastercard at local businesses where Sand Dollars are not accepted, as well as elsewhere in the world. The strategic partnership with Mastercard gives credibility to the Sand Dollar Project, helps position Mastercard at the forefront of CBDC integration within global financial systems and, significantly, creates an incentive for Bahamians to become Mastercard clients.
> The development of the Sand Dollar is part of the Bahamian Payments Systems Modernization Initiative, which began in the early 2000s. As part of this initiative, the Central Bank, the Ministry of Finance, and the clearing banks are collaborating to achieve a 50 percent reduction in the use of cash and an 80 percent reduction in the use of checks by 2025.
Important to note the original video had a disclaimer that everything in it met the standards of fair use and required no crediting. So it's likely he looked into it, maybe even consulted a lawyer, deemed it transformative enough to be in the clear, only to get a copyright complaint. Then he took the video down, reworked it and reuploaded it with credits to Mental Floss. It's never been officially confirmed by either part, but the fact that the reupload has a credit and hasn't been fucked with by Mental Floss has led most people to the (I say quite reasonable) conclusion that they hashed it out in private. So it should be fine.Internet Historian did a video called Man in Cave, in which it got struck down on YouTube because his video was plagiarized from a Mental Floss article. Internet Historian then re-uploaded the video, crediting the author of the Mental Floss article, and editing in and out parts with the author's approval.

How is that going to expel all black people?Josh is going to singlehandedly save the west by accidentally stumbling on the aspect magic required to repair the nuclear family and he’s going to do it in the dairy isle of a European gas station
It's definitly the most fun to read book he has written. Starship Troopers and Stranger in a Strange Land i think are both the peak of his writing, i heard lots of praise for The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress but i found it not nearly as enjoyable as the other two books mentioned, dragged on and on worse than some of the later parts in Stranger.Starship Troopers is the best Heinlein because it doesn't have all his weird sex stuff in it.
