Fun fact: what that audio guy was describing is called "room tone" and correct it's used for both patching and as a base sitting under all the other audio elements for the mix (music, dialogue, sound FX) and is a common practice after a on location shoot is wrapped to have the whole set "hold for tone".

The reasoning being it captures the 3D soundscape of the ambient noise in the space and how those noises bounce off surfaces and people that our ears definitely notice when it's missing like your post says! The reverb of a small office room and a gym would have very different room tones for example. And an absolute void in audio is extremely distressing and it's why you almost never have absolute 0dB in a sound mix unless intentional.

Lmao right? Sucks they're leaking out of Reddit

Cheaper isn't always better. NASA programs like LM's SLS don't get to fail on live TV or they lose their budget, so they're over engineered and built slowly which leads to higher costs. But SLS also hasn't failed on any launch, unlike SpaceX programs.

Don't get me wrong, I want all space projects to succeed. But it's disingenuous to say people can't be critical of SpaceX because of "being brainwashed". They have a somewhat reckless deployment method for the space industry with dubious reliability.

Lmao I think the funniest part is the dedication to the bit to make a sequel years later. I feel like they had Ryan host just to do this a second time. Absolutely brilliant.

CptEnder ,

Yeah most modern cars have developed from tech of F1/IndyCar/NASCAR for a while now. It's why you see slatted mirrors and side air intake/outtakes nowadays.

CptEnder ,

Weren't these subs supposed to be made for the French but we fucked them over and sent the bid to Australia? Still kinda bummed about that, especially if the French deploy in Ukraine. They're great allies.

My cat would love this. He loves sitting on my stool watching me cook. He loves hanging out with me while I eat but never tries to eat my food, can even leave him alone with the food. But when I eat he loves to get up in my business lmao so a table like this would be his jam.

CptEnder ,

Send them to Ukraine, I want to complete my Top Gun roleplay fantasy

CptEnder ,

Begun the Prime War has

Also stealthy af and much much higher torque ratios.

Only problem is current SOP for technical vehicles in most modern a armies is to be run and used continuously for days on end without contact with supply lines. If they can create E-Jerry Can modular batteries and some sort of mobile generator refueler then hell yeah. Otherwise liquids strapped to the side of everything is gonna be more effective.

CptEnder ,

Lol yeah was gonna say post got it wrong, Witchers don't hunt witches they hunt monsters.

CptEnder ,

Gotta love that sweet sweet JDAM splash baby. Hopefully that doggo ran away from those orcs.

Was that hatchback that got hit parked outside the target? Wonder if anyone was inside when the big boom came.

CptEnder ,

Surprising pilot was able to eject with all that fire and flat spin. If shot at by friendly fire does the computer even warn you?

How bad is your command and control that you fire at a friendly plans taking off from one of your airbases?! Like yeah maybe the computer had a bad return and maybe the ATC just decided fuck putting it on the net, but damn apply some common sense lmao.

CptEnder ,

Pull their property leases or business licenses.

LMFAO I'm an atheist and I sure do sympathize if he is in fact alive

CptEnder ,

Honestly that's probably me. But not what you think. In the process for long-term self sponsor visa to France rn. I made the decision in July 2022. Lived there a while to test it and now am in process to make perm. I'll still vote absentee if possible.

I don't really see any reason to be here anymore though. The experiment has failed and I no longer have any desire to try to protect it like generations of my family who moved here for equality of life and better economic opportunities. So, like them I'm moving, to a place that has the baseline of treating 52% of its population as humans and opportunities for my profession. There's plenty wrong there too, but the way I look at it, might as well have good wine while watching everything burn.

CptEnder ,

Ya know we should take NASCAR back. Cars that go vroom are cool and mean people shouldn't get them.

CptEnder ,

As an F1 fan, I absolutely love NASCAR road courses! They're always super interesting, and it's pretty impressive the engineers can package for them and how the drivers handle getting those big boys around turns.

CptEnder ,

You just stated the point of OPs post. It's not like when we sent arms to them since the 80s Biden was suddenly like "ok go kill babies". We should definitely suspend future transactions until at least the end of the current government term though. This whole US is equally responsible is a bit much though.

CptEnder ,

I think that's when it was built. A superstructure like a major port bridge will be well into the billions in 2024 money.

CptEnder ,

Part of me is worried about all these resignations, what do these people know inside the party about what's coming? Everyone is focused on them running away but no one is asking what are they running from?

CptEnder ,

Kinda wholesome ngl. The MASSIVE monitor inches away is highly accurate

Stewart Rhodes’ Son Running for Office—as a Democrat ( www.thedailybeast.com )

Democrat Dakota Adams is mounting an uphill battle for a seat in the Montana Legislature in a deep red corner of the state. But even if his campaign fails, he expects a lifelong future in politics—drawing a stark divergence from his father, who founded the far-right Oath Keepers and is serving an 18-year sentence for...

Damn that's some pretty good camo though. What is the science behind different breeds' coat colors? Is there any evolutionary advantage like this?

Woman with a Parasol - Madame Monet and Her Son - Claude Monet (1875) ( upload.wikimedia.org )

Woman with a Parasol – Madame Monet and Her Son, sometimes known as The Stroll (French: La Promenade) is an oil-on-canvas painting by Claude Monet from 1875. The Impressionist work depicts his wife Camille Monet and their son Jean Monet in the period from 1871 to 1877 while they were living in Argenteuil, capturing a moment on...

Hey I grew up everyday seeing this painting in my parent's livingroom! They saw it in Paris back in the day and bought a reproduction from a painter there. I feel like a lot of paintings were "boring" to kids but not impressionists, even at like 6 years old I was quite blown away by Monet's wild brush strokes up close they looked like waves!

I've since seen the original with my parents as well as a lot of impressionists over the years. They're quite lovely to see in person. Degas is my favorite.

CptEnder ,

Damn that's a really high quality sticker

CptEnder ,

Yeah in Syria it's one of the few times US and Russian forces have fought "alongside" each other, both against ISIS.** There were so many greenforce nations in Syria the Pentagon had to dedicate staff to coordinate with a crazy mixbag of groups - Syrian Army, FSA, Kurds, Turkish, Russians, Iraq, and even Iran to make sure no one stepped on each other's feet trying to kill ISIS. Lmao they REALLY pissed off the entire planet.

** - Russia quickly started hunting FSA people too and that's how we got the whole "US absolutely deleting Wagner forces at the oil well" incident

CptEnder ,

Aggg I just wanna scritch that butt!

CptEnder ,

Coney Island cougars are pretty chill if you give em a chopped cheese and a Newport

CptEnder ,

Do cheetahs not also pack together? Feel like I've seen pictures of them in groups.

CptEnder ,

It's funny because you're wrong. Sharks do not track the "scent" of blood.

CptEnder ,

Once again The Farside proving to be unbelievably based commenting on ocean waste in 1985.

CptEnder ,

Couldn't disagree harder. One of the funniest lines in the MCU because it's so unexpected. Everyone does love Marvin Gaye, even super villains.

CptEnder ,

Yeah the Atlantic and the Sahara are massively intertwined. I think that the other commentor is missing is that the expansion of the desert is actually negatively effecting the ocean now (ie the sunlight % drop from the sand haze)

CptEnder ,

Yeah that one pic with the nurse carrying the bed pan was like 4x this size

CptEnder ,

Sadly the hole isn't on some little boy or their cousin so the Republicans won't stick their dicks in it

CptEnder ,

This is like the Endgame of hovercrafts lmao

Those two days were the absolute summit of NCD memeage

What lunches do you eat on a weekly basis?

I'm looking for easy and cheap options for lunches on weekdays. I mostly eat deli sandwiches and hot dogs right now and I always feel like shit after eating them. I think I need something healthier but I don't have time over my lunch hour to cook anything too fancy. What do you all do for reliable healthy easy lunches?

CptEnder ,

Damn are you me? Like literally my go-to for lunch too haha
