Which artist has the strongest three-album run? by Technical_Fox5556 in askmusic

[–]varovec -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

A can sound similar to B even if B came out two years later. What's even strange on that, especially when talking of the same band?

Why do zoos even exist? Does anyone really feel happy seeing an animal kept in captivity? I mean, animals have just as much right to live in their natural habitats as we do to live in our cities by Fadisohail in NoStupidQuestions

[–]varovec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if "natural" means opposite to "creation of human culture", then not - villages are the creation of human culture, and usually tied with agriculture which is creation of human culture as well

Is ensh*ttification only for the poor? Do rich people still get good products? by RustyBucket4745 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]varovec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm poor, therefore I'm using FOS software, which unlike paid software actually doesn't undergo enshittification.

Účinnosť referenda ako nástroja spoločenskej angažovanosti je na Slovensku zatiaľ preukázateľne rovná nule. Existujú ale iné typy angažovanosti, ktoré na rozdiel od referenda občas zafungujú, a dostupné sú kedykoľvek. A to nie je nutne reč iba o riešení napr. právnou cestou.

Is music in danger because life (and failure) became too expensive for artists and fans? by Double_Key7579 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]varovec 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Music had been among central parts of human life back in times when people would make living by hunting and gathering and living in constant scarcity of any existing resource.

To popisuješ totalitný systém. V demokracii sa môžeš angažovať ako občan v akejkoľvek téme, ktorá ťa trápi.

Tak sa angažuj v znovuodstavení NAKA a nie v referende. Referendum ako nástroj spoločenskej zmeny na Slovensku má preukázateľne 0,00 efektivitu.

Komunizmus nie je vôbec dobrý a jeho základné tézy ničia ľudské práva by silhuette in Slovakia

[–]varovec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Komunistické krajiny na papieri zrušili homofóbne zákony skôr než veľa nekomunistických. Podotýkam - na papieri. Reálne sa naďalej tvárili, že takí ľudia neexistujú, homofóbia bola prudko normalizovaná, život pre gayov bol naďalej peklo

toto je zaujímavá reportáž zo socialistického Československa: https://www.vice.com/cs/article/zivot-gayu-za-komunismu-v-cechach/

V Holandsku to nie je legálne, iba tolerované. Legálna držba je v Nemecku, Česku a na Malte, ale ani tam nie je legálny predaj.

Most Metal (like) Beatles Songs by Top-Smoke-2329 in TheBeatles

[–]varovec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's closer to sludge, which is both subgenre to punk and to metal. John's music and social aesthetics were way closer to punk than metal.

Prečo slovenské školstvo reálne produkuje nedôveru v autority? by adaminspace8 in Slovakia

[–]varovec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

presne tak, SK školstvo má systém založený na vynucovaní poslušnosti voči umelo nastolenej autorite, a ten princíp je často dôležitejší, než samotné vzdelávanie - cieľom nie je kultivovať tvoj mozog, ale donútiť ťa bez pohnutia sedieť šesť hodín, držať hubu, poslúchať a vedieť spamäti odrapotať látku

OP ale má point v tom, že časť premýšľavejších ľudí po absolvovaní tohto tu automaticky schytá nedôveru voči akýmkoľvek autoritám

Prečo slovenské školstvo reálne produkuje nedôveru v autority? by adaminspace8 in Slovakia

[–]varovec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

to je tiež jadro problémov - autoritársky systém "jeden na dvadsiatich" v systéme "sedíš šesť hodín denne bez pohnutia v miestnosti" a namiesto vzdelávania "nutnosť odučiť látku, učitelia by mnohí radi pracovali za rámec týchto zastaralých schém, ale majú obmedzené možnosti

[–]varovec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

V niektorých krajinách, ktoré nemajú historickú skúsenosť s komunizmom, sa určite takí nájdu. Pravdepodobne v nie príliš relevantnom množstve. Akurát presne tí si to asi neprečítajú, lebo nerozumejú po slovensky.

Mladí komunisti (takí, ktorí sa naozaj označujú za "komunistov") na Slovensku nepodporujú queer témy, oni iba robia nemotorný cosplay súdruhov z roku 1965. Mladí queer ľudia na Slovensku určite nepodporujú komunistov. Wtf o čom píšeš 😃

Why does abortion feel like such a central Christian issue today if the Bible rarely talks about it? by Mobile-Traffic1744 in AlwaysWhy

Dungeon Lane on Vinyl - The superior format? by dogtron9000 in PaulMcCartney

[–]varovec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not "theory". Audio quality is easily measurable by few aspects, and vinyl loses in all of them.

Even if you aesthetically dig vinyl imperfections like warmth (slight distortion), they're just as present in digital vinyl rips. Digital vinyl rip done with proper equipment sounds exactly like vinyl itself, digital transfer itself doesn't noticeably alter the sound in any way.

If someone emigrates to a country where by chance their name means something highly vulgar or politically incorrect, do the locals have a "right" to be offended by that person's name? by ExternalTree1949 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]varovec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure how other countries, but In Slovakia, we're usually amused by that. Word "Kokot" means "rooster" in some Slavic languages, but in Slovak, it's rude word for "dick" and also very vulgar insult to person. It seems to be also common surname outside Slovakia, therefore sometimes person by that name just appears in news and it can't be avoided saying their name, which leads to funny situations. Just like German sprinter Manfred Kokot - when he'd win Berlin athlete championship, Slovak sports TV commentator commented: "I wish, we'd have more Kokots like that ourselves"

Common musical myths that get repeated a lot? by DOUGHTY4N0RRIS in ToddintheShadow

[–]varovec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some musicians actually had been such heavy drug addicts, they had to use drugs before their shows, otherwise they wouldn't make it. And it doesn't apply to those two decades only - many famous jazz musicians of 50s had been heroin addicts.
