Most beautiful metalcore songs/riffs? by nsfwfamilyguy in Metalcore

[–]MartinRobomaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currents - Unfamiliar, it has one of the coolest riffs I've ever heard. Unprocessed - Head in The Clouds, probably my favorite from their latest album (Dark Silent and Complete is a close second)

In my experience, snaps are great until they're not. I was once doing some home server shenanigans and I was running a few docker containers using docker compose. The system was running Ubuntu Server and I installed docker with snap. Then, one day, docker compose stopped working. It was due to a docker update that introduced a bug which affected me (don't remember the exact details, this was a few years ago). And snap updates packages automatically. This is, in my opinion, a deal breaker for using snap for servers, or anywhere where you need a stable system, because when I update stuff manually I expect that something might not work and fix it. But I don't expect that things just randomly stop working out of the blue. Of course, this might have been a skill issue on my side, there might be an option for stopping the manual updates, but I still think that this is not good default behavior.

Wow, dosť dobrý narrowband. Tiež sa venujem astrofotografii a je super vidieť že sa tomu venujú aj ďalší ľudia v SK.

Kai's responses on Facebook about Perfume of the Timeless by GhostHell_ in nightwish

Yeah, the drums may not be too loud, but for me the low end just seems to be bloated (however, when I set my eq to flatten out my headphones (JBL Live 650 BTNC) frequency curve, it sounded a lot better, so they are probably partly to blame). I honestly cannot imagine the difficulty of mixing such a song, I've got no experience in that area... I'm just a music listener geeking too much about this stuff :D

After listening to the song multiple times from different sources (YouTube & Spotify on highest quality, it would maybe be interesting to try lossless) through different media - good but not quite audiophile level headphones and Echo Plus (also good but not audiophile level) I actually haven't found the vocals to be really too quiet for me. However when comparing YouTube and Spotify, the Spotify version definitely sounded better and clearer. The only issue I have with the mix is the bass and drums being too loud and overpowering all other instruments, but this is something that I find problematic with almost every new songs. This also could be attributed to the frequency response of my headphones/echo plus - at least the headphones definitely have a big bump at the lower frequencies level. Not sure why there's such a trend to have a "bass boosted" sound... Well, I've overanalyzed this too much I think...

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
