Sounds like OP does in fact use condoms with everyone.

A group of american settlers got stuck there in winter and did some cannibalism to survive. I watched a YouTube "documentary" once.

Ahmet has English subtitles on many videos, so check out one of his recipes. Turkish man living in Germany, an absolute dad. Makes good food and cracks corny jokes while doing it.

Money. Lots and lots of it.

Hosting video on a significant scale is very expensive. Stupendously expensive.

Convincing people to join is also going to cost a lot of money. Consumers are on YT because creators are there, and they are already used to the platform. Creators are there because the consumers are there. And there is a robust infrastructure to make a living from content creation.

Financing is especially difficult for such a project, because companies are willing to pay way more for targeted ads. For which you need some data about your users. The more data you collect, the better the and targeting can be, the more companies are willing to pay.
Assuming there are enough users for companies to pay for advertising at all.

If you want to work with the original project, you have to push to the server that controls the original project.

For each project there is one authoritative instance, one "server" that everyone pushes to. Otherwise you get chaos.

Dunno if you're German or Austrian or something, but in Vienna there is a Ziegelmuseum whose curator studies the history of bricks, how they were made and used and whatnot. They have a long list of brick makers in Austria, when they were active and so on.

If you're in another country, they could maybe help get you in contact with a historian local to you.

Could help you learn more about your mystery brick.

I'll use the cliche meme of "I was today years old when I learned where the name comes from". Just made the connection when I read this article, and I love Pulp Fiction.

But I too am not a native English speaker. Just always accepted the clunky acronym as the reason for the name.

Why does Athens have a USA flag and English text?
