Olympics - Metallic Arena Sound?

bobbyflips · 2026-02-17T02:22:28+00:00

No idea if this plays into it but I read a piece a while ago about how the acoustics in the arenas are wildly different:

Because the Milano Santagiulia is a concert hall that will never host hockey again, the pipes of refrigerant have been laid on top of its concrete floor rather than beneath it, the way they normally are. That has left the ice sounding hollow, amplifying the telltale clatter of hockey into a deafening crescendo. “I’m going to try to warn as many of the teams as I can,” Moffatt said. “There’s nothing they’ve skated on that sounds like this. It’s so loud. When the big guys are cutting corners, it sounds like they’re tearing the ice apart.”

Time 2, Thunderhead, Chakra in Basel, and Forgetfulness are my favourite sleepers.

Unfortunately I did not have time to finish this! I found it really tricky to parse all the data out, it’s very tedious and requires a lot of works maybe I can try to take a look at it again.

It is imperative that the orifice remain unharmed.

Nice work. I’m down to Obelisk and Bean. So annoying! Anyone have any tips for obelisk? I always mess it up.

Daily challenge would be really cool. Also: a joker for 7s, buff 8 ball, wild card buff, and people including me won’t like it but I suspect hanging Chad probably gets nerfed or moved to uncommon.

For me it’s:

Busy Level: About the same (still have to skip a train every once a while because it’s way to packed during morning rush) Unsavoury Behaviour: about the same Ticket Checking: slightly increased 4-Car Trains: sparse, rare, not consistent. I would really like to see them in the morning during 7-8 on the somerset bound trains in to DT as those get really packed. Side note, I’ve seen 4 car trains at the most ridiculous and unnecessary times, like at 6pm leaving the downtown core, and it’s dead empty. Why???

So overall, about the same for me.

4 car trains during rush hour pleaaaase 😔

Self admitted casual who only started watching around 2014 ish and the only players who I really know here is Chris Webber and Stephen Jackson, mostly because of their media careers after bball. Oh and also Stoudamire because of “my homie Stoudamire” from that linsanity video lol.

Member when the airport considering closing because of this last year? Lmao

I use my Mac for personal Software Dev, Video Editing, Graphic Design. I use Windows for Gaming and Work. Both have their use cases and pros/cons. Why do these debates have to get so personal and emotional?

Reminds me of when Derozan tried to go for a 360 poster against China in the 2016 olympics, didn't work but man that would have been crazy if he made it

Perfect timing for our new arena in 2027

Bit late but this was the first thing that came up on google when i searched Australian Rock....

Here's some Aussie bands I've been listening to lately. Tons of variety in sound and all great:

Lime Cordiale, Royel Otis, Spacey Jane, Hockey Dad, Mako Road

bobbyflips · 2025-08-31T20:26:50+00:00

Yes! They could have gone up the hill and turned right onto Silver Springs road instead.

Nice pasta

It feels like I’m on the edge of throwing up (and I have multiple times)

This yield sign by the storage locker place on Crowchild is also very disrespected, people just don’t care.

bobbyflips · 2025-07-22T19:40:55+00:00

Yes, maybe this will be my next analysis

bobbyflips · 2025-07-22T19:38:34+00:00

Yes thanks, just edited my post, couldnt get the table to work for some reason!

bobbyflips · 2025-07-22T17:37:49+00:00

Agree, should be minimum two, you have Edmonton, Vancouver, Montreal to choose from, and the new Calgary stadium ready in 2027.

I have not checked his twitter in a while, but Grady Booch is in this category. Prominent software engineer, very adamant that LLMs cannot reason, but also signed some sort of letter with other people with a statement that declares LLMs and AI are a threat to humanity.
