My employer pays for mine, so free.

Before that was $20/month for unlimited everything with tethering in the US.

I’m a sound engineer, I have to go to concerts, it’s kind of my job.

In theory, however the ability to break up the year into smaller chunks is very handy for our monkey brains. Small number easy, big number hard.

I would love to be on the international fixed calendar, but the rest of the world would look at me weird.

That little nod by the drone was beautiful.

Getting ready to buy as many stocks as I can, I need a retirement plan, and if I can get in while markets are low, I can retire in 10 years.

Wait so I still get to do this as a career? And I’m considered an expert in the field?!?

Yea that makes sense about my knees and back hurting.

There’s a lot of things under the streets of New York, many of them cause heat. In order to cool them off the heat is vented outside and the warm moist air meets with the cool dry air and condensates into droplets that we see as steam. Same affect as breathing out on a cold day, you’re not creating steam but it looks that way because the warm moist air from your breath is condensing in the cool dry air.

I am all for a period of time, I do not think it should be at the death of the artist but a set time from creation date. Say 10-15 years, gives the artist time to make their money, while not locking the creativity behind money.

Jokes on you I saw the XcQ

Are these the trains people the Republicans are so worried about?

I took a different approach, I put my keys on a carabiner so I jingle when I walk. It makes it really hard to accidentally startle people.

How much you want to bet we’re going to start having military parades to “show off our strength”.

The US doesn’t do military parades. George Orwell said it best in 1941, “Why is the goose-step not used in England? There are, heaven knows, plenty of army officers who would be only too glad to introduce some such thing. It is not used because the people in the street would laugh. Beyond a certain point, military display is only possible in countries where the common people dare not laugh at the army.”

Part of my job involves operate hoists that are lifting several tonnes over the general public. Anything that is even impairment adjacent, like being tired, will get you removed from that position. If you are actually impaired you’re fired no questions.

It’s cyclical, years ago, video quality improved dramatically, and then stagnated for almost 40 years as prices fell until it was economical for video quality to improve again. We likely won’t see a meaningful improvement for another 15-20 years, then prices will come down and then we’ll see another improvement.

I’ve always wanted to do van life. Can I come?

Depends on what kind of ai and how much control you want over it. There are some consumer stuff like adobe or elevenlabs, but if a professional is using ai it’s likely either waves or izotope as they give way more control. Personally I use waves, their clarity pro plugins are amazing, but I know several people who use izotope as well.

The problem is doing it in real time and having it sound halfway decent. The only companies who have managed that is waves and Yamaha, the later of which requires hardware that costs $70k+.
