I really do not care how you feel about it at all. I do care about reducing pollution though. The only infuriating thing here is your childish egoism.

Elektroautos sind (in der Stadt) keine Lösung, sondern vorallem der Versuch der Autoindustrie sich in die Zukunft zu retten. Die Lösung wäre das Verbot von allen privaten Autos in urbanen Gebieten, egal ob Elektro oder Verbrenner. Dann wären Städte endlich wieder Orte für Menschen und nicht wie die letzten 200 Jahre Orte für Autos.

Looks good. Whats that topping? Cornflakes, coconut chips, whipped “cream” and maple syrup?

I think you completely missed the point. The relevant question is not if there are better ways to reduce one’s negative impact (because obviously there are) and also not if Ecosia is perfect (because obviously it is not). The relevant question is how much environmental damage using Ecosia does compared to using other search engines and how good the search results are.

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.

Nacktmull, 6 days ago (edited 6 days ago)

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

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 …

Sure, why not.

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.

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

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 …

Maybe he should have chosen a piece of stilton or at least some old cheddar then? That emmental wont get him very far in terms of sharpness I am afraid. However, with it’s mild taste and stringy melt it will serve him well if he decides to gratinate anything :P

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.

Nacktmull, 14 days ago

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.
