Sound engineering. Most people think sound is somehow sine waves and that's it. And well, that's technically correct on some level, but you can layer sound waves on top of each other to create triangle waves or square waves or what specific instruments happen to sound like: Source
And well, these aspects have implications. Like with an oboe, even the basic waveform is quite interesting, so it's excellent for solos.
On the other hand, with a more boring sound, like a sine wave, you can do relatively wild things in terms of melody or combining them into intervals, and listeners won't feel overwhelmed as quickly.
And then you've got the fun field of drums. You can often just take white noise (or pink noise etc.) and just make its volume drop off rapidly and that already sounds similar to a drum.
Which is again interesting on the boring/interesting spectrum. That noise signal adds a short moment of chaos into the mix. But then we often make drums play quite structured rhythms to entertain a different boring/interesting spectrum over time.
Well, if there was an emergency, I'd have expected them to at least drop the word "emergency" when talking to the band director. That would have side-stepped that whole discussion of how, when and why the band should stop playing.
And then, yeah, them focussing entirely on the arrest rather than actually clearing the stadium when the band did stop, doesn't speak in their favor either.
What kind of propaganda non-sense article is that? I live in Germany. We're doing absolutely fine.
Voting registration. I get a letter that I can vote and what the options are. Then on voting day, which is on a Sunday, because why would it be on any other day, I just walk into my town hall with that letter and my ID card, put down my crosses and leave. It's like a walk in the park, often quite literally.
For anyone left behind, Minetest is a community-developed alternative.
It's more of a game engine/launcher + highly moddable, so the base game is rather minimalistic, but you can simply install more extensive games. For example, for a very Minecraft-like experience, MineClone2 is your best bet.
I'm choosing the third side: WebAssembly
A long time ago in high school, my crush at the time was panicking, because a bug was crawling around her table. I was nearby, caught the bug, but then while still panicking, she told me to kill it.
I didn't care to kill it, it was a harmless bug, but figured, eh, at least I'll be her hero.
...nope. Immediately after I stepped on it, she hit me with "Why did you kill it?". She's vegetarian, just forgot her own principles for a moment while panicking.
Yes, she was not the most rational lady, but either way, that was when I learnt to have my own principles.
Few years later, there was a wasp in our classroom, which was drowsy from the heating. It managed to fly half around the room, then landed right on my sleeve. Everyone told me to whack it with a book, but I figured, fuck it, it can't sting me through my sleeve, I'll carry it to a nearby window.
She was in the room, too. This was long after I could have been her hero for anything. But that made it feel all the better, to show her I've grown up since.
What felt even better, though, was that I was my own personal hero, because these were my own principles.
Well, I'm glad we got to the bottom of what's unrealistic about traveling back in time...
»Toki war eine Inspiration für alle, die das Glück hatten, ihre Geschichte zu hören«, heißt es in der Mitteilung des Seaquariums weiter
WTF. Der Orca wurde im Kindesalter entführt und musste seither Zirkuskunststücke machen. Welche fucking Geschichte, bitte?
Er hätte mit seiner Mama durch die Weltmeere cruisen können. Gemeinsam Robben kloppen oder Yachten umdrehen. Wirklich alles ist eine bessere Geschichte als die Bitch von schaulustigen Menschen zu sein.
Boah, mit moralisch bankrotten Menschen komme ich klar, aber wenn die anfangen solche scheinheilige Scheiße zu labern, da bekomme ich echt 'nen Kragen.
The real trick is to not install anything, because Firefox comes pre-installed on most Linux distros.
So, first they rewarded YouTubers for wasting ever more of your time, making you watch as many ads as possible, and now they're building a tool to sort through that whole crap content?
