How do their noise compare to crickets?
- kadoban 3y agoSubjectively: cicadas are louder but far less annoying.
- brainbag 3y agoI enjoy the sound of crickets and cicadas (which are much louder) except for the one particular kind of cicadas we get occasionally in Texas that make a singular unwavering high pitched ambient buzzing sound, like the whine of an old tv cranked to 11, coming from everywhere. It's a horribly unpleasant sound, but thankfully they don't stick around long. The other cicada sounds are nice.
- I_Am_Nous 3y agoCrickets chirp (mostly a single kind of chirp) while Cicadas grind. The grinding lasts for half a minute or so, and they rhythmically pulsate the frequency, ending in a descending slowing of the grinding. Like a long WEEEEhoooWEEEEhoooWEEEEEeeee...
- 1letterunixname 3y agoCicadas sound like a defective transformer.
- I_Am_Nous 3y agoFor clarification, are you meaning an electrical transformer or a Transformer robot? Because I can imagine both being possible lol
- quickthrower2 3y agoOr a multi-attention head with skip connections
- bhk 3y agoSomething like comparing a whisper to a jet engine, at least when there is a big brood. https://housegrail.com/how-loud-is-cicada-in-decibels/ https://housegrail.com/how-loud-is-cicada-in-decibels/
