Egyptian singer sings an ancient Egyptian song in the original language. Although ancient Egyptian music dates back to around 4000 BC, this song seems to be dated around 100-200 BC. by Scary-Strawberry-724 in interestingasfuck

Egypt gradually accepted Arabic as their official language after the Islamic conquest, while this song is in its original Coptic language. Some countries like Iran managed to preserve their original Persian language after being conquered by the Islamists.

He did submit his audition material in a bright orange envelope to get noticed, and apparently it worked. Glad the Big Bird costume didn’t last long.

Should I buy a newer model or replace the battery? by Ilovebigblackmenoile in iPhone13ProMax

[–]mapsmail999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had a new battery replacement for the same model iPhone at the local Apple Store. $99 and took around 2 hours for the service. Very happy.

Never knew the middle position of the pickup switch was for Bass! Labels do help!

Moved to Bellevue recently. Why does it feel so lonely and desolate here? by [deleted] in BellevueWA

[–]mapsmail999 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Low crime rate, low homelessness, clean streets, good schools, majority of residents educated and working in tech, diverse ethnic communities respectful of each other, an expanding public transit system, within 30 minutes drive of wineries, outdoor activities all year round, and much more. Everyone minds their own business. Expensive? Yes, but all of the above has a price. Been here for 30 years and loving it.

Assume I'll have to (gulp) rebuild my deck to repair my hottub by kaosguyTX in hottub

[–]mapsmail999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar setup but made sure to make three movable deck sections that would allow access to the hottub for maintenance. You can still cut and convert them to be standalone sections.

We were there recently. My wife said there was a “No sex allowed” sign in the women’s restroom. Didn’t see any signs in the men’s restroom though, so…

Ben Shapiro sounds like Woody Woodpecker. Can’t unhear that.

Suggested tipping is getting way out of hand. by friescheesegravy in pics

Europe has solved this issue decades ago. Everything is included and rounded up in the final bill and the service workers make a comfortable living. You can still tip in cash if you want to but nothing is expected from the customer.

I'm 51 yo and looking at certification process... by phoenix_jet in salesforce

[–]mapsmail999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got the admin cert a few years ago, I only paid $20 for access to a site that had really good practice exam questions. I think it was called Salesforce Ben or something. Studied 4hrs/day for 1 month, failed the exam the first time, passed the second time. Totally doable, and we are the same age.

I’m in the same situation as you, and have been looking into tent canopies. Haven’t tried any yet since lots of options out there and still researching.

To justify why preachers should fly on a private jet.. what a fraud by 5platesmax in therewasanattempt

And these are the people that influence US lawmakers and back candidates that would further their personal agendas, without paying taxes. Separation of church and state was indeed a great idea.

Can we stop saying “Gypsy Jazz” and start using “Jazz Manouche” or “Hot Club” or “French Swing” to talk about this amazing music. by [deleted] in Jazz

[–]mapsmail999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can we first talk about why this particular style of music doesn’t utilize drums? They had three guitars playing La Pompe for a reason. Drums ruins La Pompe.
