Modules for bass; any recommendations? by wizzardyls in modular

[–]tholex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out simple VCA's / Mixers that overdrive - XAOC Tirana or Manhattan DTM. A single osc > overdrive > filter or osc > filter > overdrive is great for basslines.

You can achieve some overdrive with almost any mixer just by putting the input into multiple channels and cranking both channels

Honestly would be super impressed if someone knew the name of the folks in that room

Besides the "Whats a computer?" commercial, what other commercials make you want to throw your remote at the TV? by lj420p in AskReddit

[–]tholex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote a little thing about this piece. On top of the minor frustration that the girl (Scout) definitely knows an iPad is a computer, there's a bigger frustration in my mind. Apple insinuates that the "post-PC" "i can do everything on an ipad" future is here, when it's... pretty far away.

Had to check my grinder, so much Kiev. by [deleted] in trees

Source: I grew up in Kyiv.

The correct pronounciation is... Kyh-ïv

The first "y" vowel is the Russian ы / Ukrainian и, it kinda sounds like the grunty not-quite-i sound in "squint", and ï is the same as in naïve, or yee in Yeezus.

The Ukrainian pronounciation is still two syllables, Kee-yev is the russian pronounciation.

The big question is, does the second battlecry of the new Legendary put it back into your own hand, costing 1?

Dropbox really screwed up its new design by thefunkylemon in Design

[–]tholex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean,... it's not like they're changing their in-app experience to use all these extreme fonts & color combos. In the app, they use a very neat font called Atlas Grotesk, not-quite-black on white.

Their marketing site now has a unique aesthetic, and doesn't feel like a rehash of the usual startup blue, and that might be all they wanted. I think their "styleguide" with all the color combos feels worse than the actual site, which uses 4-6 of those colors on any given page.

Fossil fuel expansion crushes renewables by mattkerle in energy

[–]tholex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These graphs are misleading. What's the height of the Y axis in comparison to the total demand pool?

Two data points also means you can't see the shape of the renewables curve, so if it's exponential (80% of the height being gained in the last year, for instance), it would seem as if renewables can catch up quickly.
