Bonus Facts

Manuella "Ya Kid K" Komosi was the lead vocalist on Pump up the Jam and most other Technotronic songs, but she was not in the video or on the album cover, which instead featured Zairean-born fashion model Felly lip-synching the lyrics. Felly had nothing to do with recording the song, and didn't speak English. Bogaert used her to establish an image for the group, even if it meant some awkward miming in the video. Around the same time, C&C Music factory did something similar when they had a model pretend to sing the parts of Martha Wash on hits like "Gonna Make You Sweat." Snap! also used a fake singer in their video for "The Power." When Technotronic toured with DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, Felly didn't come along - they were fronted by their real vocalists Ya Kid K and MC Eric.

Yeah it's sad. I mean it's good, in a way that more people are aware of Nimbus now, but at the same time: nothing changes and some good people get fired over it, discouraging others to act in good faith for what they stand for.

I didn't know about Nimbus. I remember having read something about Google+Israel in the past, but didn't realize they were on board now.

All in all, fuck Google, again.

Beyond recognizing the laureates’ inspirations from condensed-matter physics and statistical mechanics, the prize celebrates interdisciplinarity. At its core, this prize is about how elements of physics have driven the development of computational algorithms to mimic biological learning, impacting how we make discoveries today across STEM. 

They explain the flex at least

The mighty morphing tree of joyful days.

I really would like to see those 43%.

Like, after years and years of Trump upping the ante in presenting himself as the biggest turd alive, there are still people that sincerely think "yeah, I'd like him as president - he represents the values i stand in for"…?

I would just like to see the people, because a minority of them will be your typical MAGA-Puppet.

“Please don’t tell anybody you sent these to me,” Putin said to Trump, according to Woodward.

“I don’t care,” Trump replied. “Fine.”

“No, no,” Putin said. “I don’t want you to tell anybody because people will get mad at you, not me. They don’t care about me.”

That was about some COVID Test Kits Trump sent to his friend, during the pandemic.

They are so considerate one of another. What a wholesome friendship.

This is fucking nuts.

Get rejected, then see your crush with someone else

Isn't it "Last Modified" - that should add the date

The ending of NOTLD is still so relevant today, sadly.

I also loved It Follows. I was already hearing the soundtrack, before i saw the Movie. It made the movie feel so familiar, while at the same time experiencing something completely new.

The score composer, Disasterpeace, otherwise makes game music. This may have added to the game feeling.

The opening sequence of 28 Weeks always makes my heart run, until he jumps on the boat.

I keep forgetting that the zombies are really fast.

Only in combination with the 2 above

Thanks.

Later i figured he was no teen anymore, if he played while you were growing up.

He really sounds pretty cool.

Like a Perlman for a Hellboy

The aar is infinite.

OMG someone that played resident evil is a grandfather? I really never felt as old as now.

It's like an old kind of onion headline, before someone fucked with the timeline and realities got mixed up.

That's more of a severe Bug, than a mere Glitch.
