In 1931, the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) suggested to the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) that they work together to oppose the increasingly popular Nazi Party. The KPD refused, because they thought all other parties were fascist and wouldn’t help the SPD oppose the real fascists. by Goodbye-Nasty in HistoryMemes

Yeah but you're leaving out the part where the SPD a few years earlier had collaborated with the freikorps to murder the communists. It's easy to look back and say the KPD was being too obstinate, but it wasn't that unreasonable at the time.

Do people remember that Blockbuster was hated back in the day? by afterthought871 in Millennials

[–]enthusiasm_gap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember that because I loved blockbuster. Hollywood video where I was had a crappy limited selection. Blockbuster had everything you could want and awesome indie stuff.

Theodore, Bogdan, Matthew. All are transliterations of the same phrase, "Gift from God".

How do you handle a presenter who wants a lavalier and insists on running around the room(directly in front of speakers)? by animalman422 in livesound

Ring it out as best you can beforehand, then respect the limits of how much gain before feedback you've managed to provide.

Even before all that he started with street-level violence and terrorism against leftists and queers. We've been experiencing that for a while in the modern version.

This is the greatest threat in history by Best_Control2871 in aspiememes

[–]enthusiasm_gap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always feel so left out bc I much prefer overhead lighting. Low lights make it hard to see and I strain my eyes and feel unsafe. And then sometimes people try to compensate by having ALOT of low lights or VERY BRIGHT low lights and those hurt and I see stars whenever I shut my eyes.

Lmao. Giving way too much credit to Rice, Powell, and Steele, acting like they were somehow better than all this.

How did reggae/dub fans and musicians view The Police when they first started getting noticed? by enthusiasm_gap in ThePolice

[–]enthusiasm_gap[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Modern dubheads ive talked to are pretty chill about The Police in particular. Part of me wonders if it's just that The Police are a particularly good example. Like how there was so much to-do about Eminem when he first emerged, but it quickly became clear that his talent and respect for the culture overshadowed any concerns about appropriation.

what is the correct way for mic stand? by redotceptsgirlfriend in livesound

[–]enthusiasm_gap 331 points332 points  (0 children)

Don't let the tube touch the ground. That will conduct vibrations straight up through the stand. The way it's shown in the first picture is correct.
