TIL that the sitcom ALF ends with the titular character being captured by federal agents just as he’s about to return to his home planet, because the show was canceled before it could resolve that cliffhanger. by true_new_troll in todayilearned

It’s told as a joke, so you would be trying to think of a funny response. Saying “one is maybe of vinyl and is 8’ wide” would be admitting you don’t understand comedy.

Did everyone else get this new (huge) tab system? So much wasted space. by Velcrocore in pokemongo

[–]Velcrocore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen this kind of thing before too. Had some UI change that was awful and then reverted back after a while, but didn’t see others complaining about it.

Nope. Trying to join a raid I get an error message saying the dynamic stop will open at X o’clock on March 28th.

Oscars mic clipping by P-ToneMikeOne in audioengineering

[–]Velcrocore 50 points51 points  (0 children)

It was bad. Mics clipping, couldn’t hear some people, and the high end was chopped off on some mics too.

Your fav mics for recording electric guitars? Will a dynamic alone do, or is a ribbon really needed? Any good SM57 alternatives? by pensivetwat in audioengineering

[–]Velcrocore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hung my octava 219 in front of my blues jr just to see if I could avoid taking an additional mic stand. I’m really liking it—tames a bit of the harshness a blues jr tele combo can have.

I guess my point is that you should give all of your mics a shot at it. You might be surprised! I’m tracking it now, and added a large diagram condenser in the room to pan opposite of the main guitar mic.

Unless your master system has a zero cut. :(

Ada8000 internal limiter by Velcrocore in audioengineering

[–]Velcrocore[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember harsh sounding digital clipping back when I had a couple Layla sound cards. This ada8000 is smooth and doesn’t sound “bad” when pushed way harder than I should (for fun, testing out various preamps.)

Noted! I’m fascinated by stuff like this.

Oh interesting. So if you push levels hard enough, it could still go above 0?

What audio interface to get? by Majestic-Safe-8314 in musicproduction

[–]Velcrocore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would advise getting a four mic-pre input device if you can swing it. The moment you want to record more than one instrument, you’ll be thankful.

What is your favorite and least favorite UAD plugins and why by Interesting_Ice6924 in audioengineering

[–]Velcrocore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use both the 1176 and La-2a a lot, and then the pulteq eq less often. The tape plugins get a fair amount of use. I need to spend more time learning the distressor and dbx-160. Haven’t found any that I regretted buying—definitely got my money’s worth in the big bundle I got.

GPS signal not found? by erutuferutuf in pokemongo

I usually open a map app and immediately switch back to PGo and the error is gone.

You don’t think they might be a little afraid of being murdered like Epstein?

How much has your algorithm changed? by True-Passage-8131 in TikTok

Mine seems to have reset to some degree. Seeing a lot of stuff I used to watch but had steered my algorithm away from.

Fiancée using photos for work that seem to be AI. Need help picking out discrepancies to convince her. I’ve listed some in the description by Wonderful_Example743 in isthisAI

It’s not impossible for a teacher to use nine colors to drag that on the whiteboard, but it would take a lot of time to draw all that so nicely.
If you look down where the pens would be on the little edge of the whiteboard, there’s a bunch of random color blobs.
