The great fast horse Daddy!!

wiki/Attila#Etymology:

Most scholars have argued that the name Attila derives from East Germanic origin; Attila is formed from the Gothic or Gepidic noun atta, “father”, by means of the diminutive suffix -ila, meaning “little father” (compare Wulfila from wulfs “wolf” and -ila, i.e. “little wolf”).

Other scholars have argued for a Turkic origin of the name. Omeljan Pritsak considered Ἀττίλα (Attíla) a composite title-name which derived from Turkic *es (great, old), and *til (sea, ocean), and the suffix /a/.

M. Snædal, in a paper that rejects the Germanic derivation but notes the problems with the existing proposed Turkic etymologies, argues that Attila’s name could have originated from Turkic-Mongolian at, adyy/agta (gelding, warhorse) and Turkish atlı (horseman, cavalier), meaning “possessor of geldings, provider of warhorses”.

In 2025, Svenja Bonmann and Simon Fries, as part of their hypothesis that the Huns spoke a Yeniseian language, proposed that the name Attila could come from an Old Arin adjective *atɨ-la, meaning “quicker, quite quick, rather quick, quick-ish”.

Attila the Sug’ no more.

Lol, so you saying that my N900 now lives in my TV?? :‘’(

I miss you, my beloved N900, and I still talk about you to people.

N900 was by far my best phone.

I’ve had a lot of Symbian phones too, most memorable was the second, the 3650!

Just bcs I was curious what would an exotic image search yield:

Restorative arts perhaps (wiki/Funeral_cosmetology)?

Yo, why this obvious drag queen so anti (better) drag queens?

Oh, it’s money & personal insecurities, nvm.

Return to monke,
but let it out for Harambe.

Yeah, being sick is a little vacation from yourself.

It only kinda is, it’s more of a partial indicator really (not on it’s own, a distant personal clue that fits more puzzles), doesn’t last long & is easily overruled by other shit (a bad/worse focus day, emotional things, adrenaline, etc).

I would have your mafia people (RIAA) meet their mafia people (Nintendo) & let them fight.

Is this an ADHD meme?

(Smol amount of alcohol to focus the mind a bit, deal with normal amounts of ADHD anxiety? Still, not reading the labels is weird.)

No, copyright infringement is a criminal offence in this case* - there won’t be any Nintendo/Sony lawyers in any part of the investigation or trial. They might have just reported a crime.

Nobody is getting sued by Nintendo (like would be the usual business in USA).

*it has it’s own jail sentence & a 15k€ fine, tho again not clear if per case or whatever bcs the law infrastructure just isn’t up to date (never was?)

(Afaik)

He uploaded an English dubbed explanation: youtube/zSEB4if2pJQ#.

He seems super unsavvy when it comes to legal/formal proceedings or authority in general (I don’t mean that as a bad thing, we are all different, just that it can def affect how things go and escalate).
For one he got the notice in mid April & just continued to review (among other things?) such consoles this whole time (which makes me think now a trial is even more likely) & didn’t prepare for anything (his channels, personal things, SD cards with all them ROMs, etc).
The panic & the whole ‘why is this happening to me’ anger makes more sense in view of this (not that is isn’t warranted, from what I’ve seen it’s def stupid anyone is doing anything about this guy in general).

But other shit-showy things happened too - they took his phone to make a copy & didn’t return it for two months (it’s unclear if they had a warrant for it or if he volunteered it - or indeed if Italian law recognises what a “personal device” is as EU has yet to compile a delegated act that will unify definitions & personal rights for such modern necessities for all members).
(If a cop takes my phone & doesn’t promptly return it still locked I’m marring their mom & make them call me daddy before the trial starts. Then submit my phone in evidence with saucy newlywed pics. I would be angy too if they took my phone, not to mention some poor data retrieval specialist getting a lifetime dose of ptsd.)

An Italian youtuber with some legal experience explains a bit more (in Italian): youtube./zSEB4if2pJQ#.

What I was thinking is that the complaint had to be specific, ie some lawyer (for a Japanese megacorp?) found an exact thing to complain about (eg in this exact second of this specific vid he admits this personal gain and shows that illegal thing, etc). Not just something vague.
They are looking at all his communication, finances, and content on his channels (but might be focusing only on one YT channel - this and the fact they mention an Anbernic device makes me think it’s a very specific complaint).
I don’t know that much about Italian law enforcement but I agree that is a bit sus they went after him at all - there might be more to the story that he either isn’t saying or thinks (in your average “law ignorance” way) irrelevant but is very relevant. Idk.

That is literally the charge/what they are investigating.

Afaik the difference will come down to if he was ever paid for a review (which would be the difference between a regular consumer buying a thing legally & showing what he bought vs him being part of the promo campaigns by the manufacturer … you know, like Google is).

And if there is no newer specific law (the old one ofc doesn’t explain shit since it’s from pre-computer era), it might come down to him receiving free consoles to review, and maybe having a bunch of SD cards full of ROMs in his apartment.
(Meaning that if they say free review merch is a form of payment, they go to trial. As I understand he didn’t/it’s not common practice to return stuff like this after review, tho some reviewers do it and some manufacturers demand it.)

Yeah, he only showed what the police gave him (they are investigating him for promoting copyright infringement).

Yeah, it’s weird bcs as I understand that copyright law from 1941 is for the actual distribution, and if he never got paid by anyone in the distribution chain (tho as understand he did get some free consoles to review), then he wasn’t part of it - just filming himself saying what can be bought on the market.

Epstein arrested for flying on planes

People will seriously argue such title would be fine.

I agree, the title is literally false, just to get more engagement.

(If it was literal than any ads about such handhelds would be in the same category, not to mention YouTube as it allows this en masse.)

And this isn’t a comment abut the arrest (megacorps are always scumbags), just how “journalism” works nowdays.

It’s just a fact that the title could have easily explained why was he arrested - and it’s a fact that was omitted on purpose so that you have to click on it to see what the actual reason was (what potentially isn’t in accordance with the law).
(You don’t get the key info of the whole story until you pay for that info by clicking on the article so they get engagement monies.)
