I'm guessing similar to the diamond blades and pads used to cut granite. The edges usually aren't sharp, the blades are usually pretty wide, 1/8" kerf, but they're encrusted with diamonds. The blades don't usua

Honestly, it's the synthetic novel proteins part that worries me. Prion diseases are real and not well understood. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prion >Prions are misfolded proteins with the ability to transm

I've seen food grade ethanol sold here in extremely tiny amounts at pretty high prices for perfume making. Other than that you need a license to acquire it. I'm fairly certain there's different licenses for different applicat

It could just be something here. There's a lot of restrictions on ethanol here. It's pretty hard to buy. Most of what you can find in general tends to be isopropynol or methyl hydrate.

Most bottles labeled rubbing alcohol sold here are a mix of ethanol and isopropynol(i think mostly to discourage drinking it). Isopropynol vapours can cause respiratory irritation. https://www.msdsonline.com/2015/02&#x

As someone who's lived under an inconsiderate asshole who would play loud bass heavy music at 2-3am. Yes, low frequency sounds are much harder to dampen. Especially when they shake your roof and walls.

I haven't ordered anything online all year. I'd rather support the local retailers in my town that have been suffering and on the brink of shutting down all year.

I can say, I have no problems building ardour and have many times before, but the last few updates I've decided to forgo that and just buy the prebuilt binaries. Ardour's given me a lot of value over the years when other options w

I'm not sure what dreamland the author lived in. Computers today are relatively about the same hassle wise as they've always been. The exact problems may have changed, but I find myself experiencing roughly the same amount of prob

I'm sorry, but i didn't like this article. The purpose of writing is to communicate an idea. Something this article failed to do. If there's one thing I was taught that's most important in writing is be concise and get t

Thank you. As awesome as the Harrison stuff all is, I make music for fun, so it's a bit out of my price range. I've been really liking the LSP plugins though, i'll have to check those out.

Well, as Ardour's the only DAW i've paid for and you saved me from making a fool of myself countering all the things said above allow me to step in and say. I really love ardour, thank you for all the hard work to the creator and

Could you point me to some? I started using jamin when it was pretty much the only mastering available, if there's something better now I'd like to check them out.

I've used non, I like it and I like the idea, I wasn't really a fan of the ui though. I used non-sequencer for a bit but ended up switching to muse and rosegarden before Ardour got midi. I find it almost a bit too modular. I do li

Fair enough. Makes sense. Thanks for responding and for your article. I did enjoy the read. It's always good to see more stuff on FOSS music production and see how other people work.

Check out the LSP plugins. Don't think they can replace all calf plugins but I've been starting to replace the calf plugins I use with them. I like their equalizers better than the calf ones. Been starting to check out their filte

I'm curious about why the author's using Jack1 rather than Jack2. Is Jack2 not available for guix? Jack1 has a bunch of limitations compared to jack2 and hasn't been in active development for a while apart from bugfixes. In g

About the same really. The whole process of factory farming is brutal. Trying to sugarcoat it by calling them no-death eggs is semantics at best. It changes nothing about the factory farming system, the number of culled chickens, or the con

Sure, doesn't mean it's anything other than something to make people feel better while changing nothing.

It's not though, we're talking about chickens that are for the most part destined to live in a cage and end up on someone's plate.

So, they're still culling fertilized eggs with males, they just do it before they hatch now. I guess it's a little more visually appealing to the public, but it literally changes nothing. The same number of chickens are still cull

That seems a bit pedantic and a kinda negative, the whole thing read to me like a parody on the whole 'it's not a real machine unless someone's made doom run on it meme' and a homage to doom style games. It didn't s

A waiter sees hundreds of people every single night. Unless you were particularly rude or did something memorable, I don't think they'd remember. People always believe people are paying more attention to them than they really are.

That's not the situation in the town where i live. There's less tax here compared to the city, gas prices should be lower, instead, every gas station in town is priced higher and all keep the same high price. Years ago, the grocer
