Sad to see that Self’s completely transparent fear mongering is working in McKinney.

I came across it on a post about why universities are expensive. At first it had all the standard Reddit answers but I used my experience in the university system to provide more accurate answers. My responses started generating responses and then the whole thing was shutdown. I thought they were farming for LLM content and didn’t like the answers. I am definitely less likely to participate now.

So we’ve gotten better at developing vaccines over time and you interpret that as a warning against vaccines. Not smart. COVID killed millions so your claims that it is harmless is not based in reality.

Collins and Murkowski only vote against Trump when they know their vote doesn’t count. It’s all a lie so they can pretend to be moderates.

The people that are upset are bigots.

You just make completely baseless assumptions and then keep on going. Your statements are entirely divorced from reality. Plus you are a massive asshole on top of that.

I’m sure I will overlook the shit show time sink they represent for me to give your experience precedence over mine

That isn’t a gross overreaction at all. You seem like a delight to be around.

By accurate he means not including a black woman in the cast.

You may not like it but Apple’s choices produce performant hardware and their laptops have had better battery life than other HW for what feels like well more than a decade. It could very well be harder to repair but I’ve had a ton of Mac’s and none have required repair.

I already brought up the RIAA EQ curve. Plus you have all the effects like compression, limiting, distortion etc. Plus you’ve got the whole process to make a record. For a CD digital files are simply written to disc. With a record when you send the plant the audio there is really no telling how the record is actually going to sound due to all the hidden processing that is applied.

I’d say he is complicit given how much pleasure he clearly derives from Israel’s genocide.

Analog processing is more complex than your statements.

That isn’t what the text actually says though.

“Producers take analogue audio, introduce quantisation and digitisation errors immediately to be able to use their fancy computers to produce the music (which introduces even more errors due to all filters being digital) just to then dump that digital piece of sound into an analogue medium at the very end”

That is not true. Records have a massive EQ curve applied before writing to vinyl, and after the stylus reads the waves on vinyl. Yes, there are errors with digital music but there is noise with analogue methods. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIAA_equalization

You support a genocidal state. That puts you at a level far worse than you suck. You support genocide but you call us fuckups? That is repugnant. I think it is time for a block.

The rest of us are poorer for it. Here’s Tom with the weather.

I didn’t argue for banning plastic bags. Using plastic bags for groceries is better for the environment than reusable bags.

You are inventing a situation to try and make the school look bad. The child specifically asked the school not to tell the parents. The school didn’t invent some standard against the parents to not tell them. The child did. Data establishes quite clearly that revealing information like this to parents is harmful to the child.

Reusable bags take up more resources than using single-use plastic bags. You’d need to use the reusable bag for decades to make up for the additional resources to create that bag compared to single-use bags. Things slant even more towards plastic if you can use the bag more than once, like for a bathroom trash bag.

I didn’t say Lynch did typical stuff. :) Dune is definitely weird. Possibly Lynch’s worst movie. I’ve heard the phrase for movies “show, don’t tell” but Dune is full of exposition. Contrast Dune with say Mad Max. Mad Max doesn’t tell us anything, it is all shown, and is better for it.
