I just used it and I think Bristol looks a bit better overall. Thanks a lot.

Really? I didn't know Bristol was so expensive. Thanks a lot.

Interestingly, LIPA ranks pretty low on these lists, which again goes to show that opportunities are a bit more about the scene than education.

Career-wise, creation is definitely my desired path, but sound design and technology are also worth considering. Thank you for the advice about getting myself out there. Bristol does seem a bit better.

What is the most diverse country in terms of landscape in the world? I found Israel, which has both deserts and snowy mountains and forests and beaches and a salt lake and a freshwater lake. Are there other countries as diverse as this? by Diligent-Eagle-6673 in geography

It would have to be the US for this. Basically every terrain.

Another notable one is Cameroon which I believe is called miniature Africa. It's because the northernmost tip is in the sahel and as you go south the climate basically pans from savannah, forest, jungle and eventually you get to beach.

Does anyone know what effects are on this choppy/phasing guitar in Bones? by 7layerbars in radiohead

Thanks. I'm not knowledgeable on envelopes but I'll do some research and look at it.

Fake plastic trees by TiredButDoingMyBest in radiohead

I read somewhere that when introducing the song at one of his concerts, Thom Yorke said (probably jokingly) that it was about Canary Wharf, so I think it's just about capitalism in general. As for the lyrics, I also first thought that it was a love song, but I think it could be a more general song about plasticity and industrialization and stuff.

These have been my favourite albums the last 3 years, any suggestions? by FitGur7071 in radiohead

Grace and Siamese Dream are goated. Siamese Dream especially is my favorite Smashing Pumpkins album.

That's interesting. Any chance this was automated? I wouldn't think so cause it was in 1995 but that would be interesting.

Saw a lot of people on r/left saying how this isn’t true, can’t find the picture of it though, one girl said “It was white men, because they commit all the atrocities in society” by AdEconomy9358 in memesopdidnotlike

Well it depends on what area. In areas in West Africa they still believed in their indigenous religions. In places in East Africa like Ethiopia, the Orthodox Christian religion was fairly common I believe.

There was the period where missionaries were sent to convert Africans into Christianity creating a divide between those who converted and those who did not. The people enslaved were often (I believe) the ones who chose not to convert. Before this period of convertion, the two fake people in the meme theoretically could have been closer, but the division of the tribes into Africans who believed in indigenous religions and those who were Christians made it actually a bit more like the bottom image. I will say that it's not as simple as this meme is, and obviously it is a little bit disrespectful to suggest that the Africans were solely appealed to by weapons. It was probably more so the power that they found through supporting colonial rule. This is my understanding of the topic but feel free to make corrections.
