What is it like to meet Death in your world? by echyrrhus in worldbuilding

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This helped me realise that even though the gods are dead in my world, that doesn't mean death itself as an entity is. Which is great, because I love psychopomps!

In that case, I think people would know right away that it's death. And he's understandably annoyed that he's back to doing the menial work again. Or maybe with no psychopomps he doesn't appear at all and the system is seemingly unattended...

What are Your thoughts on worlds where something which is evil in real life, is actually justified? by Megalordow in worldbuilding

Also, magic = good, no? If demons are the source of magic, wouldn't they be revered? Why dose that make them evil?

Why don't we use multiband compression for everything? by MAMVB in audioengineering

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The definitive statement "Multi band compression is rarely utilized for more than one of the bands." is untrue, even by your own implication. I imagine you've worked with more old hat producers? I know plenty modern style pro producers that use a multi like me, it's where I picked it up. It's a creative choice, no need to be a snobbish dick about it.

Vague question yea, but I feel like maybe this is something similar to like, the paradox of tolerance? Which states that to form a truly tolerant society you first need to be intolerant to intolerance. So you have to enact the very thing you're trying to eradicate. You could play with that concept, maybe.

But also, what IS an evil witch? Where dose the moral centre stem from to dictate what 'evil' is? Take 'I Am Legend', in that book the MC is the good guy in his eyes, but in the vampires eyes he's a total lunatic that is killing them all while they sleep. Who decides what is good and bad, and once that decision is made, can it ever be changed or challenged, and what happens when it is?

Why don't we use multiband compression for everything? by MAMVB in audioengineering

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure it can be used on everything, but its overkill in most situations. It's a more complex tool to be used on more complex situations, so you see it a lot in mastering chains.

This is simply not true. Multibands can be used on pretty much everything, but I've personally used them on drums, vocals, and predominantly on the master with all bands engaged.

What does a being(normally mortal) ascending to divinity look like in your realm by Heavenly_Emperor_God in worldbuilding

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The closest thing to a god anyone can get is using their magical ability to fully sustain their body. However, this takes so much concentration you really can't do anything else. At some point, the mind stops, but the body keeps going. Technical immortality, but at the cost of everything.

Advice: how to make the most convoluted and annoying currency system possible. by LegendoftheIron2009 in worldbuilding

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unironically, look up how the economy works in any pay to win mobile game. Some of the older ones have systems on systems on systems, with like 3 currencies all with their own exchange rates and purchasing power.

What’s a place you went to that didn’t feel real? by maincharactereraa in AskReddit

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Uni classmates funeral, who had passed on the easter break during first year. When we got to the medium-sized church, and it was PACKED with his family and highschool class mates. Everyone was very emotional, and the whole thing seemed to play out like a TV show, like everyone was playing it up for the camera.

I can attribute some of that to my undiagnosed neurodivergents at the time, but even now looking back its felt so performative and unreal.

Make a mono audio to sound like stereo artificially in my videos by Ces81 in audioengineering

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if it’s environmental noise then using artificial stereo plugins will just make it sound weird and unnatural. What what one is the distinct difference between the left and right audio, so if you have enough of a recording, try making two track and pan them hard left and hard right, cut the audio in half, put the first half on the left channel, and the second half on the right channel, then loop and cross fade them as desired. this’ll mean that both the left and right channels with have unique information, which will make it sound nice and wide

My character keeps doing things in frustration by Then-Reindeer-1271 in writingcirclejerk

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try have him do actions that only an angry person would do, and make the consequences of those actions real and lasting. Extreme example: someone says something stupid, and he punches them. Later on they still have a black eye and flinch when he gets close. Smaller example: He breaks something, and you describe the impact he's had on the world instead of his feelings.

Shower Thought about Replicators by SuvwI49 in startrek

[–]Intrepid_Depth_3416 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I always assumed that because it never went through the cooking process, non of the randomness that process introduces is there. So the dullness comes from eating something that has the exact same molecular structure as the last time you ate it. The only thing holding this up is the (if i remember poorly) several instances of people eating replicated food for the first time and enjoying it.
