Putin issues a nuclear warning to the West over Ukraine
  • no tools

    Its the same thing with narc parents. They got nothing but the roof over your head so all day they make threats about it. They abuse the tiniest bit of power incessantly to create a dopamine skinner box of a life for themselves

  • China's economy risks heading into recession as Producer Prices enter deflation, reports say
  • It was an amazing feeling when I was able to budget properly finally and start being able to proactively buy what I wanted or needed coming from a place of security and being able to shop around and use Costco etc.

    Its straight up evil what is being done in terms of inflation. Treadmill of death

  • Can a staccato effect be applied to a regular audio track and can sustain like the piano pedal effect also be similarly added?

    I'm wondering if the attack of sounds can be generally modulated after the fact to an arbitrary audio file and similarly for a piano-pedal sustain type effect.

    Can they be gradually and arbitrarily modulated?

    What's the most interesting or your favorite amino acid and why?

    > D-phenylalanine (enkephalinase inhibitor)

    Interesting substance, its one of the few dextro (right-spinning optical isomer) amino acids that you can process or something.

    I think its fascinating because its purportedly an endorphin reuptake enkephalinase inhibitor? or something so its potentially quasi-opioidergic. I'm not sold on the notion its legit but its definitely a provocative idea.

    Is being underwater nature's low-pass filter, sort of like the natural audio equivalent of visual blurring?
    • Does it lower the decibels of ambient above-surface noise, to what extent?

    • Is it preferential to filtering out low or mid or high frequencies or do they all move through it as a medium about equally in terms of perceptibillity by the submerged end observer?

    Whats something you constantly lose that you wish you could always be able to have without needing to hunt it down repeatedly?

    Regardless of whether you're medicated/unmedicated, or altered/not altered or any combination of those?

    For me, its my hat I like to wear to keep my hair out of my way and contained somewhat lol

    Also my pajama shirt(s), no idea why but its been better recently since I moved the "clothes chair" from being the laundry basket in the bathroom (just hanging there) to a dedicated shelf in the closet 😅

    I've started my cat on inhaled corticosteroids and rescue inhaler but she's still have constant stochastic asthma attacks?

    What do you guys give your asthmatic kitties and how did you get them in a good place with prevention? We have the fancy AeroKat chamber and she does tolerate it (I can see the indicators flapping demonstrating she is inhaling properly)

    She's on

    • 110mcg fluticasone 2x/day before food
    • 100mcg salbutamol~1-3x day right now

    She weighs around 9lbs

    Can any file and its data be converted to a String or plaintext?

    I've noticed some files I opened in a text editor have all kinds of crazy unrenderable chars

    Was it only a beef or some more insidious objective?
