  • Gegen den systematischen Massenmord an über 30.000 unschuldigen Frauen und Kindern zu protestieren ist kein Antisemitismus. Wer so etwas behauptet ist entweder dumm oder lügt ganz bewusst aus ideologischen Gründen.

    Die Bullen freuen sich natürlich immer wenn sie Studenten zusammenschlagen können, schließlich sind protestierende Studenten in der regel Linke und da hauen die in der Regel rechten Bullen traditionell gerne drauf, vermutlich schon allein weil sie insgeheim neidisch sind das es bei ihnen von der Intelligenz her nicht für ein Studium gereicht hat.

  • Immer wieder die gleiche Leier. Ein Kampf gegen Drogen hilft der Drogen-Mafia, weil so das Angebot begrenzt wird aber eben nicht die konstante und massive globale Nachfrage, was nur steigende Preise und damit steigende Gewinne für die Mafia zur Folge hat. Eine Legalisierung wäre hingegen ein einfacher Weg um den illegale Drogenhandel massiv einbrechen zu lassen, dem organisierten Verbrechen eine Hauptgeldquelle zu entziehen und Konsumenten effektiv zu schützen. Leider basiert die Drogenpolitik aber nicht auf Logik und Wissenschaft sondern auf Ideologie und den wirtschaftlichen Interessen grosser Konzerne bzw. deren Lobbyarbeit/Korruption.

  • Issue: “I don’t like music where autotune is used to heavily modify the singers voice.”

    No, that is not my issue. What I am unhappy about is that genres I started to listen to when there was zero autotune abuse (and which I loved very much), have been ruined for me because now 80% of the releases have Autotune robot vocals.

    Investigation: There are artists which do not use this type of effect in their music. What to do: You can listen to music which does not incorporate this type of sound. Examples of other sounds you may avoid if you do not like them: Screaming, the tuba, Ed Sheeran, etc.

    Nope, there are many details that define the style of an artist or a genre, if they use Autotune is only one of those. I am certainly not going to listen to artists and genres I do not like, just because they use their natural voice.

  • There’s a lot of artists today who don’t do that?

    That statement is true by itself ofc. However, my point still stands because there have never been more artists using purposefully misadjusted autotune than today and there are even genres now in which it is mandatory.

    Plus vocal correction in general has been done for ages, it was just much more labour intensive before autotune.

    How is that relevant to my comment? Sure, vocal correction is what Autotune was initially developed for but as we all can hear that is not what they do with it nowadays, instead they purposefully misadjust it to create the most unnatural vocal sound possible ...

  • Not sure what you mean to imply, please elaborate. All I know is that:

    1. Antares Autotune was first released in 1997, before that there was no Autotune, so it was definitely not used before that. The intended use was to inconspicuously correct small mistakes, when singers would not hit the exact note, in a way that listeners would NOT notice if the plugin was adjusted correctly.
    2. One year later, Cher made purposefully misadjusted autotune famous with the song Believe
  • That tune brings up some old memories. Thanks for posting. (The correct genre is not pop but dancehall btw)

  • Yes it was, because you could hear the singers/rappers actual voice, instead of purposefully misadjusted autotune.

  • Stimmt und wer sich nicht privat versichert ist ja irgendwie auch selber Schuld ... /s

  • Die sollten stattdessen endlich dafür sorgen das es nicht ewig dauert bis Menschen in akuten Notlagen einen Therapieplatz bekommen!

  • In a wider sense, just by shopping in the supermarket or owning a cellphone, you are participating in worldwide exploitation and mass murder.

  • Apparently, Christians are not the only ones who lack basic knowledge about the history of Jesus ...

  • Es gibt sooo viele Instanzen, such dir halt noch ein paar aus. Ich kann lemm.ee und lemmy.world empfehlen.

  • Nobody hates the USA without a reason. All the anti americanism in the world exists because the US has been systematically fucking over other countries without mercy. Looks like people don't like oppressors who exploit them ...

  • Good decision to get baked like that on a weekend, enjoy!

  • After playing through The Witcher III a few times, I did a "lap of honour" run and played The Witcher I, II and III right after another with transferred save games. It is a nice feature sure but the impact on the playthrough of each single game is pretty negligible, since it does not change that much. Also, I liked the first part for being a solid crpg but I found that the second part often plays like a half baked prototype of the third part and playing through it felt more like a chore than a nice buildup to the great third part. If somebody wants to get into The Witcher, I would recommend skipping the first two parts and just simulate a save file if you want to influence certain prior decisions.

  • What kept you from washing the potato before getting baked? Looks pretty good anyway though and as we know, most things taste good when properly baked.
