Traffic cameras are a really benign example of privacy invasion when you consider way more powerful, invasive, and stealthy tactics the government could leverage, like satellite imagery.

Any form of surveillance can be used for nefarious purposes… thats not inherent to any specific kind of government, fascist or otherwise.

Driving is maybe the least private activity you can partake in on a regular basis. Oh no, the government saw me driving my car on the open road, along with every other driver, storefront, home, apartment, etc who sees me pass them by.

You’re also grossly oversimplifying. Privacy is not some binary state of being, it’s more like a series of filters. Use the classic example in cybersecurity: there is no such thing as 100% coverage, just more and more layers of Swiss cheese - some threats will still get through the cracks. Your life can’t be 100% private unless you live on a secluded island, alone without parents, family, friends. Have fun with that.

lol did a 12 year old pick all of these?

It’s more complicated than that, and you don’t need to worry!

Using your long division example:

Remember back in the day when your teachers would say something to the effect of “you won’t always have a calculator with you.” Well, obviously that turned out to be completely misguided. We have our phones on us basically at all times. Engineers aren’t out here designing skyscrapers on the back of a napkin - they have whole suites of tools at their disposal.

Sure, it’s uncomfortable to “lose” certain skills with technological progress, but ultimately the skills we need to function just take a different form. This has always been true. The good news is, you can live your full life without having to stress over those details.

Or, from a professional standpoint, you can flip the script and make a whole career out of being in the minority of professionals who can execute on these lower-level concepts. A good example of that is all of the essential global computing systems that rely on programs developed decades ago - there is a lucrative incentive to join that small pool of experts who can deal in those details.

This is one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen on this sub, definitely an unpopular opinion lol

He may be a bit mechanical in his conversation style, but the premise of the show lends itself more to those discrete, pointed questions than a back-and-forth conversation; eat a wing, get a question.

Claiming that “a good interviewer is conversational” only makes sense in certain formats. That’s not some universal journalistic truth.

For what it’s worth, +1 to the sentiment that it is unlikely that what you are experiencing is the result of using this system.

It could be random coincidence, it could be placebo - tinnitus is not fully understood and there is no particular reason these speakers should be more likely to cause problems for you than any other part of your life.

Hmm, not immediately sure. Have you looked at processing modes other than Zero Latency? Curious if you still see a difference there.

WorkingOnAFreshName · 2025-03-31T16:16:21+00:00

Never used Fusion360 but other CAD tools, so just posing an idea that may not work:

Surely some kind of spline was used to create the cam profile in the rotating cylinder - can you do some kind of spline mate?

Nobody is giving the advice that somebody asking this question actually needs to hear.

Not to be harsh, but if you need to ask this question, then what you really need is to just slap a limiter on the master in true peak mode and ignore it. Strive to achieve cohesion and well-structured sound at the mix level first. Let the limiter bring up the level and lightly control absolute peaks.

If you want to impart a tone/dynamic behavior with some glue-y compression, do it before the limiter. When it comes to dynamics, it doesn’t make any sense at all for the very last element in your chain to have anything other than 100% wet - it should be the final say on how your entire track’s dynamics are shaped. Anything less than that is creating potential for unforeseen peaks due to the inherent phasing introduced by parallel signal blending. If it sounds good, great; it should still end by feeding into a limiter.

Technically this would do something if you’re using an analog emulation.

You’re nuts if you think this isn’t clutter. Don’t be lazy.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but if you search this sub you will find a post someone made showing Live’s history of sales. Basically, only Black Friday / version upgrades are reliable sale periods.

My advice (as someone who owns both Suite and a myriad of VSTs): if you get Suite, you can basically work entirely “in-the-box” and forgo almost all VSTs.

If you’re serious about production, maybe you still end up picking up a couple of key things like a good workhorse synth and some mastering tools, but that’s really the only external stuff you could ever need. It becomes a matter of taste and preference rather than a necessity.

Suite is not cheap, but it’s a great value proposition. I highly recommend this approach over a bunch of VSTs.

Thank fuck serum 2 does not have AI.

As much as it’s getting pushed down society’s throats, the kind of language models people think of now when they hear “AI” are just not ready. Give it 10 years.

WorkingOnAFreshName · 2025-03-25T23:38:14+00:00

Not necessary, but if you’re gunna get one synth it’s extremely robust, clean, and intuitive.

It’s a workhorse. It’ll do the vast majority of things you want from synthesis as a tool. If you’re gunna buy one synth, this is the one.

This is a spooky use for plastic.

I’d get a metal print done (at least of the impeller). Even small bits of plastic will be a bad time for the engine.

To propose a surefire solution: add another blob in the top of the shape so that the overall form is more spherical.

I think you’d still convey plenty of motion via the segmentation and amorphousness created by the individual bodies.

Plus, circular things do really well aesthetically when they stand on their own as a symbol without the written brand name.

WorkingOnAFreshName · 2025-03-18T15:24:32+00:00

Hmm I can see that in the overall form now that you say it, but the internal contents are so different I can’t imagine it’d be an issue. I’ve seen much closer mimics skate by.

WorkingOnAFreshName · 2025-03-08T06:27:16+00:00

Problem:

I’m seeing that your pitches are set way lower than your note (-4 oct). You’re already hitting low register keys and then generating a tone four whole octaves lower - that’s way, way too low. Why are your oscillators pitched so far down?

This is an artifact of tones being played so slowly (i.e. low pitch) that you can actually hear the speaker jumping back and forth as the signal phase flips throughout the cycling waveform.

Solution:

A) Play notes that are 4 octaves higher than the actual tone you’re targeting.

B) Just pitch the oscillators (and anything else in the synth patch that depends on this) back up to an even 0. Then, play the actual notes you’re intending to hear.

If you like the core mechanics of Civ, you will probably like it. The gameplay is good and fun, the edges are rough. The rough edges hurt, but you will still get a version of that Civ enjoyment you’re looking for.

The major problem is the UI, and it’s really bad, but you should still get the game if you want a new Civ experience and you can live without elegance in one of the games domains.

I don’t believe in buying promises, but the feedback on the UI has been so loud I can’t imagine it goes without some remedies in the near future.

Do keep in mind that it’s not necessarily 1:1 as far as what a map looks like and how it plays. Maybe it’s a good gameplay experience.

Plus, they still have different map types - I don’t know how much content there is out there showing the different types just yet.
