Shpongle is a group / collective, not a single dude. It’s mostly Ram and Posford, but there are / were others.

Posford is kind of a big deal for founding Twisted Records, and for being Hallucinogen, releasing the album Twisted under that name. That album was quite something, and pushed many people (including myself) into that particular music genre. It also defined a lot of its style and tropes.

The Astrix remix of Divine Moments of Truth is among the most amazing things one can listen to as part of a psychedelic experience.

I’m typically too tired of this kind of trolling, but here we go:

Naturally, similar kinds of vulnerabilities have existed on iOS as well.

Uhm… how? Will you explain how you arrived at extracting a positive message out of this post?

The poster is apparently MtF and passing, and their mom is recognizing that, so visually, OP should cover themselves, according to their mom’s beliefs. However, the mom can’t acknowledge that, as that would mean acknowledging they’re a woman - which is impossible in their belief system.

I can’t imagine this tension to be pleasant for the mother in any form or shape, and at best the poster could gain some form of amusement by seeing their own mother struggle in discomfort. I fail to see how that situation is a blow to conservatives, demonstrating the absence of oppression in that particular family.

It hasn’t been widely available in the west and needs to be rather fresh. Heat destroys this particular effect of the mushroom,for example.

The sounds are coming from patch files loaded via PAT_Load_Instruments in libmodplug, which is what’s used to generate the sounds.

You are right though that the patch/instrument consists of several pre-generated samples and does not use Timidity “live”.

No, Timidity++ is not a soundfont, it’s a synthesizer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TiMidity++

So, your installation found that Timidity++ was available and used it to synthesize the required sounds, no sound font needed (TiMidity itself can make use of available sound fonts though).

No, the law is not ideal, and yes, I do find the implications questionable as well. Some people could end up not being able to drive for multiple weeks.

However, that was the trade off that had to be made. People want weed to be legal, which it absolutely should be. Let’s not forget this thread started out with outrage about a guy whon ran over a kid. Now, there are no tests that offer insights into a shorter, more recent time window of consumption, so how are we going to resolve the question if that driver was driving under the influence?

The law made a compromise, that, according to studies, mostly affects heavy users that consume THC daily, and yes, for those people, the law currently does not represent an ideal resolution. But that doesn’t even apply to all people who smoke or otherwise consume weed, and it can be resolved by the introduction of better tests without rewriting the law while providing the necessary framework for legalization.

I’d prefer for weed to be legal and not being able to drive for a week than to be arrested, treated like a rapist by cops and then to be dragged to court for the possession of miniscule amounts of THC, which was the previous state.

What gives you the idea there wouldn’t be a test to see how high you are at the time of the accident? You’re taken to the station, they call a doctor who comes over at any time of the day, draws blood and they determine the amount of THC in ng per mL of blood serum or plasma. Legal thresholds are based on that measure as well.

Belgium has a threshold of 1ng/mL of plasma. If you’ve been a heavy, daily user and your blood shows detectable levels of THC (which it totally does, yes) 7 days after, you can’t drive, simple as that - that’s how the law works and the fault is on you.

She got popular on TikTok with “get ready with me” videos, a genre of short form content where you watch people apply makeup and get dressed for clubbing, concerts etc. (or the opposite, actually, watching them get ready for bed).

She is conventionally attractive and has a bunch of equally attractive friends who appear in her content, so it’s easy to see the appeal. Plus, GRWM feels like you’re socializing, sitting at the person’s desk / “battle station”, getting ready with them, just chatting, sharing stories. I see why the overall genre is working.

That being said, I watched a few videos of her just now, and well yeah, it’s not exactly intellectually stimulating. She really is the hot blonde girl that dates the football star talking about her boob job and how she doesn’t understand why she was invited to Miley Cyrus’s NYE party, and it pretty much ends there.

Then again, that’s like the depth of what, 90% of popular media? I can’t hate on her as a person.

I’ll have you know your picture is one of my favorite cat memes. Great to see you in these parts of the Internet.

It’s not a competition.

I got my full horoscope done in a lounge chair in a club. She brought tables and everything. But my god was she cute.

If the subtitles are actual subtitles and not dubs, you can extract timestamps from the audio with a model such as whisper + timestamp support. You could then optimize the overlap of timestamps in the subtitle format (e. g. SRT) with the timestamps provided by the model. That would give you a best fit delay, potentially even shifting over time.

Given that you’re in a browser and don’t even have access to the subtitle data, that’s a purely theoretical exercise. While it might be possible to retrieve the subtitles from the site / API the browser is using and then set the delay in the browser component as well, that’d be far too much effort vs. switching to a better playback method.

You could, however, compute the best match and set that manually, if that’s all you’re after, i. e. skip the automation part. You’d still need to access the source audio and subtitles.

If the audio is in a different language, all bets are off, there is nothing to sync against. Translations also won’t help, since there are multiple ways to translate any given source material, and the origin and length don’t match up between languages, naturally.

Hey hey now, leave my bath salts alone.

An OM-3 or a Lumix GM5 are both absolutely portable, even more so than typical mirrorless bodies. Unfortunately, the OM-3 is a flagship camera, and the GM5 has turned into a collector’s item, so both are expensive.

Not really, no. Signal was released more or less exactly a year later than WhatsApp (May 2010 vs May 2009), which, if you look at the 17 years since then, doesn’t really matter that much.

However, broad adoption rates in messaging apps are typically achieved by e. g. funny emoji sets vs. encryption, and the early versions of Signal were pretty barebone.

1. You could start by typing cd and use tab completion to explore your target folder(s). This would require at least a rudimentary knowledge of what you’re looking for so you can prefix your search

2. If you really want to explore the contents and pick your target without knowing anything in advance, cd "$(find . -type d | fzf)" would give you a smart browser. You can of course replace ‘.’ with any base directory you like. Requires fzf.

3. In general, zoxide can help with navigation.

4. If you want to stay a purist, I’d go for simply recalling your last ls command from the history and replacing it with cd. An example has been given in the thread already.

No, but the actual study does. Birth outcome is defined as:

• weight at birth
• gestational age (i. e. how long the pregnancy lasted)
• if the birth weight was below 2500g
• if it was a preterm birth, i. e. the gestational age was less than 37 weeks

The study focuses on first - born children and corrects for multiplicity (e. g. twins), which are a lot more common under medically assisted reproduction.

The highly abbreviated conclusion is that under these circumstances, the previously observed poorer birth outcomes largely disappear.

Naturally, this result says nothing about the later developments of the affected children. Nothing positive, nothing negative. Nothing.
