BOFH of freespeechextremist.com, and former admin. The usual alt if FSE is down: @p@shitposter.club, and others. I am no longer the admin. FSE has no admins now. Welcome to the FSE Autonomous Zone. I'm not angry with you, I'm just disappointed. I am physically in Los Angeles but I exist in a permanent state of 3 a.m. I have dropped a bytebeat album, feel free to DM me for a download code or a link to a tarball: https://finitecell.bandcamp.com/album/villain . There is a chiptunes album there, too. Revolver is coming: https://blog.freespeechextremist.com/blog/revolver-kickoff.html
Webster's 1913 edition had "Etym: [Named from Americus Vespucius.]" in it. Sure, but what's that name mean? Per

America - Etymology, Origin & Meaning of the Name
"the western hemisphere, North and South America," in Cartographer Martin Waldseemüller's… See origin and meaning of america.
 , it's kind of interesting: > Amerigo is Germanic, said to derive from Gothic Amalrich, literally "work-ruler." "Work-ruler". :terrythinking: "Negotium populo americano melius quam otium committi." > The Old English form of the name has come down as surnames Emmerich, Emery, etc. The Italian fem. form merged into Amelia. :otacon:
