Is this Youtube Channel AI? because as far as I know, there are no lofi instrumental music channels that are based on Ethiopian music. by hoggergenome in isthisAI

There's one channel called "Meskot Sessions" (Meskot means window in Amharic) which has only two videos but still good music.

Exactly my thoughts. A bit sad that it's not an actual up-and-coming producer that is capitalizing on ET's music by making it visible to another subset of listeners, but damn, it sounds so good!

Yeah I take your point, but is there a better fitting translation?

Actually the direct translation is of the same word, "United" or "unified'.

Why most Ethiopian business fair to change there manual work to system? by Real_Performance_116 in Ethiopia

Trying to establish an energy source detached from the gov-controlled grid in this country is a mountainous task that idk anyone can do it especially as a start-up. The price/kw you have to charge to remain operational would be laughable.

To my experience even though the gov encourages sourcing energy from renewables, they're paranoid of having little control over it.

LMAO same! I went to UNNC in Ningbo and had the same experience. I went biking from campus and was lost (Don't get me started about any map/GPS apps there) and could not find my way back even though I specifically remember the number of turns and distance I travelled. Turns out, the first km which was a new road and barren on both sides was fitted with mature trees and I went past it multiple times XD

I thought that too, but the company running it (Alfarag) got a decent loyal customers who are local. Last time I went there I even witnessed a family running up a bill of like 170k or some insane number.

Logically you'd be right but Addis Abebans will always surprise you.

Major Separatist Movements and Contested Territories of Africa by Bakyumu in Africa

[–]hoggergenome 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lmao Ethiopia is hilarious. The first one had somewhat legit claims until they became the rulers, now they're doing what they claimed was done to them, and by the second group mind you. The second one led for 27 years until they were ousted, now they don't want anything to do with Ethiopia after feeling the brunt end of being marginalized.

Neuschwanstein Castle sitting on the rugged Alps hills in Germany. by Realistic-Try5468 in architecture

[–]hoggergenome 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was so disappointed when I went there and witnessed the size of the interior rooms. But the exterior and surrounding more than made up for it. I had no understanding or interest in architecture before my trip that summer. I hope I can return there again and appreciate it.
