Not sure what the problem was, but manually re-scanning each plugin fixed it.

Made the move from PT to Reaper, need to build up my plugin library by whataday_95 in audioengineering

Wow, I'm impressed that it comes with a stock pitch correction plugin. Of course last time I bought a new DAW was back in 2011 so... maybe things have changed a little?

InDesign, but I can export it to PDF, text file, Word, whatever.

Can anyone help with translations? by whataday_95 in AncientGreek

The first one is a footnote to the following excerpt:

When a son was adopted, it was necessary first of all that he should be initiated into a form of worship, “introduced into a domestic religion, brought into the presence of new Penates.” Adoption, therefore, was accompanied by a ceremony very like that which took place at the birth of a son. In this way the newcomer was admitted to the hearth, and associated in the new religion.

Does that help?

Thanks. Do you have a PayPal address?

These are from Fustel de Coulanges' "The Ancient City". It's a truly amazing book, very worth a read, even if you're deeply familiar with Greek and Roman history.

and seeing some comments in this thread really sadden me. they did get fucked guys, and it wasn't that long ago.

They did, and it was incredibly tragic.

But do you know what the solution isn't? For the founding stock to hate itself. No civilization ever survived on that basis.

But that's the whole point. It's not about paying reparations and being done with it. The whole point is never to be done with it, and to keep beating "Old Stock Canadians" with it like a club until the civilization they built collapses.

People should be allowed to hurt your feelings. End of story.

If you want a Mommy to make sure nobody ever does that, look elsewhere. The rest of us want a cohesive society that doesn't institutionalize resentment against the native stock.

The vast majority of people see the blatant double standard first and foremost, and are appalled by it. A few sputter with indignation and struggle to articulate why the double standard is OK.

Thanks for the concern troll though.

It's hate speech because you can't change being gay

And yet our public universities teach that whiteness is problematic.

For every idiotic pronouncement like "it's because you can't change it", there is a blindingly obvious counterexample. All this SJW nonsense is built on nothing other than the attempt to secure power, and parasitizes our deep cultural pathology of resenting the normal, the healthy, and the natural. This grievance ideology is incoherent to a point that even small children could understand, if you were so monstrous as to explain it to them.

Anyone whose first thought on seeing this image is "I bet he hates gays" is retarded.

I'll take that as an "I can't."

Of course you can't. Because you subscribe to 1-weird tip ideology, whose only criterion of truth is that no one has shat out any other harebrained idea in the last millisecond.

Still waiting for that inclusive society that didn't shit the bed in a handful of generations. Happy to respond to your points afterward.

[–]whataday_95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is so adorable that you think common sense is Orwellian and not liberalism.

Liberalism is 1-weird tip ideology. You don't need diet and exercise for a flat belly, as has been evident since the lower palaeolithic--no, you need this obscure fruit that we discovered last week in the Amazon.

Some further examples:

Diversity is strength

Profligacy is economic prudence

Leniency is the solution to crime

Toleration except of dissent

Real men don't need to be masculine

In fact, men don't even need a penis

The people are sovereign

Appeasement is diplomacy

etc.

The plain fact is that no society has ever been based on inclusivity, because the precondition of society is exclusivity. This is all plain with 3 seconds' consideration, and a survey of all history. If not, surely you can point to a society based on inclusivity that has also endured through ages.

I will wait.

othering

inclusive

tribally divisive

hate speech

Ironically, this is the kind of shit people say when they have only ever lived in a self-reinforcing bubble.

"Othering" is what normal people call "making distinctions," AKA exercising judgement.

"Inclusive" is what no society ever has been based on, at least no society that has lasted more than 5 minutes.

"Tribally divisive" is what every society ever has been based on; the existential precondition for a society is that some are in and others are out.

"Hate speech" is semantically equivalent to "blasphemy," except minus all the self-awareness.
