@rogalik gimme fast bm pls

2018-05-17 13:11:35 UTC

fast bm hmm

2018-05-17 13:11:45 UTC

Ziggurat?

2018-05-17 13:11:48 UTC

it's new tho

2018-05-17 13:12:13 UTC

we actually have a guy that was on some vocals in one song Ritual Miasma

2018-05-17 13:12:18 UTC

and now is apparently their bassist 😮

2018-05-17 13:12:51 UTC

oh that reminds me I was supposed to be part of a solo project( Ig uess that would've made it a duo project) but forget to actually send the drums to the guy

2018-05-17 13:12:58 UTC

kek

2018-05-17 13:13:05 UTC

his stuff was sick tho

2018-05-17 13:15:28 UTC

tbh some people complain about "too fast" drums in Ziggurat but I like it

2018-05-17 13:15:32 UTC

I like fast drums and riffs

2018-05-17 13:15:36 UTC

most of the second wave was fast

2018-05-17 13:16:04 UTC

it was one of the deviations from the original bm

2018-05-17 13:16:21 UTC

of course modern technical dm became way faster anyway but still

2018-05-17 13:17:14 UTC

I am not sure if I like technical dm

2018-05-17 13:17:23 UTC

there is stuff like braindrill which is just a mess

2018-05-17 13:17:28 UTC

but i do like nile a lot

2018-05-17 13:17:34 UTC

uhh no I generally don't like dm

2018-05-17 13:17:44 UTC

I just said that it's even faster because

2018-05-17 13:17:53 UTC

originally it was bm's trait

2018-05-17 13:17:55 UTC

yea I get that

2018-05-17 13:18:00 UTC

but nowadays bm isn't really faster than fast dm

2018-05-17 13:18:24 UTC

what do you think of messhuggah?

2018-05-17 13:18:54 UTC

I don't like most of death metal, tempo breakdowns all the time, tons of randumb riffs, no atmosphere, no structure, no melody 🤷

2018-05-17 13:19:23 UTC

messhuggah I'd have to listen to it again cuz I don't really remember clearly t b h

2018-05-17 13:19:55 UTC

I think it has a good deal of atmosphere

2018-05-17 13:19:55 UTC

yeah I know Nile

2018-05-17 13:20:36 UTC

Nile, Cryptopsy and I think Messhuggah too though I'm not sure I have ever listened to a lot of their stuff are the solid dm bands

2018-05-17 13:21:42 UTC

I'm hating on Slayer and the ones kek 🤷

2018-05-17 13:21:53 UTC

lel

2018-05-17 13:21:56 UTC

or all these meme ones

2018-05-17 13:22:09 UTC

slayers bretty good imo

2018-05-17 13:22:15 UTC

Death is good too

2018-05-17 13:22:17 UTC

but nothing I'd listen to regularly

2018-05-17 13:22:30 UTC

I just don't feel Slayer idk

2018-05-17 13:23:49 UTC

das solid

2018-05-17 13:23:58 UTC

2018-05-17 13:49:28 UTC

yea thought so

2018-05-17 13:49:34 UTC

2018-05-17 13:49:51 UTC

I know

2018-05-17 13:56:33 UTC

2018-05-17 13:56:57 UTC

has its disadvantages

2018-05-17 13:57:28 UTC

I want more bm this fast pls

2018-05-17 13:57:35 UTC

this is my tempo lel

2018-05-17 13:59:26 UTC

maybe try Bestia Arcana - Holokauston, it's fucking epic but vocals themselves aren't really fast, the drums and riffs are tho

2018-05-17 14:02:46 UTC

its kind of different from regular bm

2018-05-17 14:02:48 UTC

so idk

2018-05-17 14:03:02 UTC

pretty good so far

2018-05-17 14:05:35 UTC

its not as straight forward as regular bm

2018-05-17 14:05:43 UTC

thats for sure

2018-05-17 14:10:04 UTC

Le evolution

2018-05-17 14:25:46 UTC

@rogalik whats your opinion on constitutional monarchy with an actualy politically actve king and a working seperation of power?

2018-05-17 14:33:46 UTC

is there a parliament and a government?

2018-05-17 14:34:13 UTC

yea people still vote but the royal family exists besides that

2018-05-17 14:34:32 UTC

think if the queen was actually an acting monarch

2018-05-17 14:35:13 UTC

like the crown holds the executive power while parliament holding the legislative

2018-05-17 14:42:05 UTC

well I'm not particularly fond of monarchs I mean if the ruler is decided by succession laws and not really by any merit whatsoever(you can claim that there is no "merit" in democracy either but someone running for PM/President have at least to gain some popularity) and can't be replaced if he's obviously incapable of doing his job right, then what? you will inevitably end up with a bunch of idiots on the throne

2018-05-17 14:42:57 UTC

there were excellent kings who exhibited unmatched strategic sense but there was even more of no name turds

2018-05-17 14:43:18 UTC

I don't see a reason to give anything to anyone by birth

2018-05-17 14:43:24 UTC

my idea was creating a commite with no political power that observes the heir during his growth to determine if he is capable, also he will be taught in morals and state theory and such

2018-05-17 14:44:00 UTC

also it could be an elected monarchy

2018-05-17 14:44:17 UTC

every dynasty picks one heir and a commitee votes for the most capable

2018-05-17 14:44:20 UTC

if it's elected monarchy why not simply a republic then 🤷

2018-05-17 14:44:27 UTC

or aristocratic family rather

2018-05-17 14:44:34 UTC

you know we've had an elected monarchy in Poland

2018-05-17 14:44:45 UTC

the plebs cant vote tho

2018-05-17 14:44:48 UTC

dunno if you're familiar with that

2018-05-17 14:44:56 UTC

our nobles were voting for the king

2018-05-17 14:45:03 UTC

and it went down the shitter real fast

2018-05-17 14:45:11 UTC

why?

2018-05-17 14:45:26 UTC

game of thrones like intrigue?

2018-05-17 14:45:33 UTC

or was the elected guy just a twat

2018-05-17 14:45:38 UTC

>go from this

2018-05-17 14:45:41 UTC

>to nothing

2018-05-17 14:45:43 UTC

>in 200 years

2018-05-17 14:45:45 UTC

👌

2018-05-17 14:45:48 UTC

wew

2018-05-17 14:46:05 UTC

cuz we ended up having a string of idiots on the throne

2018-05-17 14:46:18 UTC

thats why we need an impartial council

2018-05-17 14:46:25 UTC

later on any polish-lithuanian king would be effectively elected by foreign powers...

2018-05-17 14:46:53 UTC

>my idea was creating a commite with no political power that observes the heir during his growth to determine if he is capable, also he will be taught in morals and state theory and such

2018-05-17 14:47:20 UTC

that's what was more or less happening, I mean not really the first part but the heirs would get education and shit

2018-05-17 14:47:38 UTC

well the first part is the important one tho

2018-05-17 14:47:52 UTC

why limit yourself to only those people from the royal family?

2018-05-17 14:48:00 UTC

less of a hassle

2018-05-17 14:48:03 UTC

there are thousands even more capable politicians out there

2018-05-17 14:48:27 UTC

>less of a hassle

2018-05-17 14:48:27 UTC

royalty has better access to education cuz they are rich and dont need to work

2018-05-17 14:48:33 UTC

why is "hassle" bad

2018-05-17 14:48:57 UTC

democratic process was designed to ensure fair and effective transition of power

2018-05-17 14:48:58 UTC

it works

2018-05-17 14:49:19 UTC

>royalty has better access to education cuz they are rich and dont need to work
modern elites are basically royalty too, they receive top tier education

2018-05-17 14:49:19 UTC

thats we still have an elected parliament

2018-05-17 14:49:32 UTC

thats the whole point

2018-05-17 14:49:37 UTC

its that the elite

2018-05-17 14:49:39 UTC

are smart

2018-05-17 14:49:49 UTC

and one way to define elite is by going with royalty

2018-05-17 14:49:50 UTC

yeah then why can't they run for the top office?

2018-05-17 14:49:55 UTC

they can

2018-05-17 14:49:58 UTC

in parliament

2018-05-17 14:50:02 UTC

only royalty can

2018-05-17 14:50:10 UTC

top office = head of the state

2018-05-17 14:50:22 UTC

we dont need to make king head of state

2018-05-17 14:50:31 UTC

we can make king and pm equals

2018-05-17 14:50:36 UTC

as they hold ifferent authorites

2018-05-17 14:50:39 UTC

I just don't see a reason at all to limit yourself to just a few of the people

2018-05-17 14:50:56 UTC

I don't see anything that favors monarchy really 🤷

2018-05-17 14:51:02 UTC

R O Y A L T Y A E S T H E T I C S

2018-05-17 14:51:42 UTC

it might be aesthetic but you wouldn't want your fate being decided by aesthetics, but by merit

2018-05-17 14:51:55 UTC

every single european monarchy ultimately went down the shitter

2018-05-17 14:52:14 UTC

of those which didn't, they were gradually cessing their power to the parliament anyway 🤷

2018-05-17 14:52:15 UTC

thats why I keep saying that its not an absolute monarchy

2018-05-17 14:53:21 UTC

do you think there is anyone in your country more capable to govern than Merkel? 🤷

2018-05-17 14:53:27 UTC

do you think a king would do better?

2018-05-17 14:53:52 UTC

a king would hold different authorities than merke

2018-05-17 14:54:04 UTC

and I dont think merkel is the pinnacle of governance

2018-05-17 14:54:22 UTC

merkel would exist next to the king

2018-05-17 14:54:27 UTC

if you go by aesthetics then you can have monarchy just like some European countries do - just for official things, but they hold no power whatsoever

2018-05-17 14:54:28 UTC

on an equal scale with different powers

2018-05-17 14:54:38 UTC

thats pointless tho

2018-05-17 14:55:51 UTC

Merkel might not be the best politician in world history but she's an elite politician I don't see a reason to think otherwise, she's been able to maintain power in the most powerful country in Europe for all those years, and some of her schemes are quite impressive tbh like the same-sex marriage thing before the last elections that basically fucked SPD and die Gruene in the ass kek

2018-05-17 14:56:12 UTC

do you know why merkel holds power?

2018-05-17 14:56:20 UTC

because 40% of germans are old people

2018-05-17 14:56:24 UTC

maybe its not Bismarck tier stuff but she's fine by me 🤷

2018-05-17 14:56:46 UTC

it might be that

2018-05-17 14:56:51 UTC

but I really don't see anyone more capable

2018-05-17 14:56:55 UTC

all the people who vote cdu vote cdu because they always voted cdu

2018-05-17 14:57:02 UTC

thats true

2018-05-17 14:57:07 UTC

but that doesnt mean merkel is fine

2018-05-17 14:57:15 UTC

its just that everyone else is incompetent

2018-05-17 14:57:18 UTC

the best you can have 🤷

2018-05-17 14:57:32 UTC

I mean I'm not really into this kind of thinking

2018-05-17 14:57:56 UTC

if someone is the best I would rather say he's good and appreciate him instead of saying all the other people are incompetent

2018-05-17 14:57:59 UTC

the bueraucratic machine we have in place only allows for small grey lumpf of human beings to get anywhere close to power

2018-05-17 14:58:08 UTC

so I dont think that she is the best we can have

2018-05-17 14:58:12 UTC

oonly the best we are allowed to have

2018-05-17 14:58:41 UTC

do you really think Merkel isn't fine? of course some of her decisions were controversial, some were just utter shit(though I can see some reasoning in them anyway), but after all your country is doing graet

2018-05-17 14:59:11 UTC

our country doesnt seem to have a backbone when it comes to the us and is a slave to the automobil lobby

2018-05-17 14:59:16 UTC

impressive economy, billion budget surplus, billion trade surplus

2018-05-17 14:59:22 UTC

many countries absolutely envy you

2018-05-17 14:59:35 UTC

do you know why we have surplus

2018-05-17 14:59:39 UTC

i know

2018-05-17 14:59:48 UTC

it's still surplus 🤷

2018-05-17 14:59:53 UTC

I wouldn't complain too much about that

2018-05-17 14:59:54 UTC

because we dont get money for programs that benefit the citizens

2018-05-17 15:00:13 UTC

uhh well..

2018-05-17 15:00:19 UTC

our infracstrucutre is going down the shitter

2018-05-17 15:00:20 UTC

thats just one thing tbh

2018-05-17 15:00:30 UTC

just as much as my grammar is

2018-05-17 15:00:45 UTC

I don't think German infrastructure is that bad tbh

2018-05-17 15:00:51 UTC

look Italy <:haha:318675605233336330>

2018-05-17 15:01:01 UTC

its not only physical infrastructure

2018-05-17 15:01:13 UTC

I am talking digital

2018-05-17 15:01:15 UTC

tbh

2018-05-17 15:01:24 UTC

all of Europe is 1000000000 years behind in IT

2018-05-17 15:01:24 UTC

that's true

2018-05-17 15:01:30 UTC

but it's not only German problem

2018-05-17 15:01:44 UTC

it's a thing bigger than Germany and I don't think you're the ones to blame

2018-05-17 15:01:47 UTC

surely not Merkel

2018-05-17 15:01:58 UTC

*well actually you're the ones to be blamed for it kek*

2018-05-17 15:02:09 UTC

under merkel all germany is is a maintenance apparatus

2018-05-17 15:02:22 UTC

"weiter so"

2018-05-17 15:02:59 UTC

this IT thing was really inevitable after WW2, massive brain drain to the US and no single European country can match their resources really

2018-05-17 15:03:10 UTC

you know, there was an open letter recently, by scientists

2018-05-17 15:03:35 UTC

to fund some European AI research centre

2018-05-17 15:03:44 UTC

because all our brightest brains are just drained to the US

2018-05-17 15:03:54 UTC

hmm wonder why

2018-05-17 15:03:58 UTC

and no single country can do anything about that

2018-05-17 15:04:06 UTC

you'd need EU wide cooperation

2018-05-17 15:04:15 UTC

or Europe wide actually

2018-05-17 15:04:16 UTC

like with CERN

2018-05-17 15:04:24 UTC

but we wont get that

2018-05-17 15:04:40 UTC

for all the reasons you stated

2018-05-17 15:04:42 UTC

I don't blame Germany for that, it's too big for you to deal with 🤷

2018-05-17 15:04:46 UTC

cdugonna keep sitting

2018-05-17 15:04:49 UTC

riding it out

2018-05-17 15:05:59 UTC

that's why I want more EU in some fields, otherwise we are literally fucked in the ass by the US and soon by China

2018-05-17 15:06:10 UTC

we'll be fine but we'll never be on the top again

2018-05-17 15:06:26 UTC

this is exactly what makes me angry

2018-05-17 15:06:31 UTC

I dont want to be just fine

2018-05-17 15:06:55 UTC

but rn Germany is a place "you can live good and well" in

2018-05-17 15:07:13 UTC

no need for change

2018-05-17 15:08:06 UTC

for me all those nationalists with their gibberish about muh "sovereignty" and muh "taking back control" just want their countries to do fine, because well no one will invade the UK, it won't ever become poor, it'll be just fine, but all the brightest British minds will be drained away

2018-05-17 15:08:28 UTC

they don't realise what's needed for their countries to be on the top or they simply lack ambition idk

2018-05-17 15:08:42 UTC

we are Europeans ffs we are not here just to be fine

2018-05-17 15:09:05 UTC

is that a jupiter?

2018-05-17 15:09:19 UTC

well I guees CDU and Merkel became quite stale tbh

2018-05-17 15:09:42 UTC

yes I guess there won't be any revolution under Merkel, and something is needed to be done
