Well they took them to Israel first but yea i agree

I’m not positive, but i believe the majority of their support team was in Paris so I’d guess that’s why. Apparently they were given a choice between deportation and a trial and some of them basically had to be convinced to choose deportation so they could speak about their experiences.

I mean, with virtualization that’s pretty much true

I have this but also can see the image of the thing so clearly in a place where it’s NEVER even been before

Love caving videos and love magnus. Thanks for posting!

No doubt, but imo “natural talent” is way less common than just people who have put in the work, at least for musicians in my experience. For every person i know that just started rippin shit from when they were 3 years old there’s like 20 more folks who have just put in the hours. I also think some people who seem to have that natural talent it’s more like they just were immersed in that environment from birth. Music is a lot like a language; you can always learn a new language as an adult but people that grow up speaking it because of their environment will make it look effortless.

So, there’s a difference between sound absorption and soundproofing. Curtains and foam panels can do wonders for making your room sound better acoustically but won’t do much to lower the amount of sound getting out. The only way to actually soundproof is either by adding a bunch of mass (bricks/concrete blocks/mass loaded vinyl) or by creating air gaps (or some combination of the two). Conflating soundproofing and sound absorption is very common but they are different. . Paper egg cartons will do little to nothing for either sound absorption or soundproofing; this myth comes from old style sound absorption foam tiles that kinda looked like egg cartons and were therefore referred to as such.

You’re absolutely right about sealing door gaps helping though.

Or just leave them. Leaves are good, people. If you can, leave your leaves.

I’m a drummer so I often have drumsticks in my hands. I can hold each end of a stick with both hands and get the stick from in front of me to behind my back without taking my hands off the stick or hung under my legs.

Feels like you’re being intentionally facetious but yeah I pretty much agree with all that. I think the nuance is that most people don’t want to work jobs but would likely occupy themselves with their passions if their basic needs were guaranteed.

There’s also plenty of research that shows that people’s earnings reflect how happy they are, but only up to a certain point. Different studies have different numbers for that point but it’s pretty much always above the actual median income. After that the line flattens and for some even goes down. So yeah, it’s not always a direct money = happiness but you’d have to be an idiot or intentionally obtuse to say that people wouldn’t be happier if they didn’t have to agonize over how they’ll pay their bills/save for their future.

Fuuuuuckk i had forgotten about Scavengers Reign :(

Not saying it wouldn’t still do well, but Tiger King released at the absolute perfect time: March 2020. A time where everyone was bored, maybe scared, and in need of an escape that was simultaneously too ridiculous to be reality while at the same rule too unbelievable to have been made up.

Side note, the guy who made Tiger King made another docuseries cake Chimp Crazy that I find is even better.

In this same vein, I’ve never had a from-scratch brownie that I like better than the box brownies.

How does searching discord work? I was under the impression that entire chat logs weren’t permanent and that older exchanges would be routinely deleted.

Great watch, hopefully they make more of this type of content!

I genuinely thought this was going to end with like “and then shove it up your ass!” or something

Language for sounds doesnt work like that though. If I hear a pop song and say “dang that’s a great snare” it isn’t wrong if technically the sound is actually a synthesized snare. When you hear something you can name it without it having to be physically present. Plus plenty of things ring without being a bell.

Look, I’m not saying any of them come close to the original, but imo it’s the second best of the series (including all the dogshit jurassic worlds) because it sticks to what made the first one great; small amount of people trapped on an island with dinos. The Lost World was like half that but then it turns in to some weird almost king kong-esq thing. Also i love me some Goldblum but he’s better as a foil imo and Chris Pratt has nowhere near the gravitas as Sam Neil. Like really besides the annoying parents what do you not like about the third one?
