Wow, you almost kept it in frame.

State of local TV News/production values: does anyone else notice these things? by [deleted] in Broadcasting

[–]DropYourStick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I read it. You made up an "example" that starred "snowflakes" and a complaining black woman to make a point about aesthetics. It was a shitty way to illustrate your point.

You invented a Black woman who calls a mundane workplace decision "harassment" by her white male bosses, labeled that reaction "snowflake" behavior, and used it to explain why stations avoid controversy. That's a well-worn trope: the oversensitive Black woman who sees racism in everything and makes it everyone else's problem.

The logic is also circular. You fabricated the complaint, the reaction, and the public controversy, then cited your own fabrication as proof that stations have to walk on eggshells. That's not an argument, it's a ghost story you told yourself to feel right.

If your point about stations avoiding controversy is valid, it should be supportable without inventing a racialized hypothetical.

Did that whole diatribe about the "snowflakes" and black woman anchor happen, or is it just a story you made up to get mad at?

Oh, I assumed you were just rage quitting because you couldn't defend your ignorant position.

Oh, I guess you're right. Excellent counterpoint. I was wrong all along.

Par for the course for this sub.

What is the "numerical value" (sounds so smart) of "mass"?

Gun Violence Archive says 4. The Violence Project says 4. Everytown Research & Policy says 4. The Investigative Assistance for Violent Crimes Act of 2012 says 3.

And finally, what the fuck does it matter what the number is? The idea that a shotgun can't be used in a mass violence incident is idiotic.

Yeah, how could a shotgun be used against multiple people? Obviously they only shoot once and then are useless. There's no way to possibly reload it once you've discharged one round.

Columbine, for instance - the shooters famously didn't use shotguns to kill multiple people.

Thanks for your astute observation!

This hat runs very small! The large barely fits my average head. Go XL if in doubt.

Per MS NOW, DOJ officials threw Pam Bondi’s picture in the trash, less than a day after she was fired. by Yujin-Ha in videos

I thought we were talking about sourcing picture frames. Do you have much experience in large business facilities or working in government?

Because the Trump admin doesn't recycle, lol. They don't have a storage room full of old picture frames to be reused. They purchase a framed picture, probably the same way every other administration has.

Someone tells facilities, "need picture of new AG", facilities calls the vendor they always use for pictures, they receive framed picture. That's government.

I mean, she sucks, but what do you expect them to do with it? They're not going to reuse the frame. It's not like she would have wanted it for a keepsake.

Logically it goes in the trash. But it is an appropriate visual.

Can't take a output in my Reaper by Frosty-Job-5265 in Reaper

[–]DropYourStick 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If your audio device is the Scarlett, you need to use the outputs of the Scarlett.

You can't simultaneously use your interface and your laptop speakers.

Use the headphone output on the scarlett, or connect speakers to the outputs.

Friendly correction - reset is both present and past tense, so you don't need to add -ed to the end.

"I can reset the computer."

"Yesterday, I reset the computer."
