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.

Pretty sure that shit in fact belongs to a horse.

What's stopping you from using Ecosia? Your searches could plant trees! ( www.ecosia.org )

Ecosia is a search engine that aggregates search results from multiple other search engines. The ad revenue from our searches funds the planting of trees worldwide. With over 200 million trees planted so far, Ecosia have learned to be fully transparent about their projects, and financials which are available right on that...

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)

@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

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

@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

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 ...

That almost sounds like an agent provocateur, surely the police would never use such an insidious tactic, would they?

/s

Nacktmull ,
@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

That was in fact the initial idea behind it and it was used like that for some time (pitch correction only) until Cher came along and started that stupid trend of deliberately misadjusting the plugin to make the voice sound super unnatural. I will never understand how that awful sound could become the norm and ruin so many genres all over the world. To me, even after all those years of this shit being normalized, it still just sounds like someone fucked around with the autotune setup.

True and on top of that the Canary Islands have a severe problem with lack of natural sweet water supply, which is significantly intensified by mass tourism.

The short episode summaries on Netflix that show before you watch an episode often spoiler the main plot or even the plot twist. I will never understand why they do that.

On point! However, the good thing is that often it works and results in a sweet cuddly nap.

The probability that there are no aliens is very small, considering just how large the universe is. For the same reason we will probably not get to meet them though.

You should get an endoscopy of your esophagus. A narrowed esophagus can have several reasons.

There is one simple way to stop this. End the war on drugs. Legalize it!

Woooosh

@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

Yes, they have diversified. However, they initially moved into legal business to invest and launder the money from their primary source of income, drugs. So let´s start weakening them by taking that away.

Yes, that´s the point.

https://youtu.be/xDmBFYY5QEw Some people cycle for exercise, some do it for the commute, and some do it as a sport, exploring the toughest terrain on the planet. Common sense dictates that all those activities would require bicycles of different calibers and capabilities - the Heybike Hero wasn't designed for 'common sense'......

Do yourself a favor and buy an ebike from one of the big established bicycle companies. They have decades of experience in building bikes, think about it.

Desensitization based on routine is all there is to "handling spice". It is neither an achievement nor an ability. Anyone can get used to it by starting from small amounts and slowly increasing the spice level. Also, there are many spices, chili is only one of them.

Chicken Tikka Masala is a British national dish and that is common knowledge.

Nacktmull ,
@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

I will not argue against that.

Nacktmull ,
@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

I love chili, I just don´t like the glorification of desensitizing ones taste.

Nacktmull ,
@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

So let's agree that it's neither Indian nor British, but a fusion of the two, created in Britain by immigrants or their descendants and becoming a national dish loved by people in Britain regardless of their cultural background.
