sure, but if even the top russian experts die in a test then surely it is not suitable for normal power generation

nuclear is dangerous. there are no headlines about solar or wind farms causing deadly accidents like this EDIT: that can impact several cities in a region

the range of notes in pentatonic scale is only five. but the rhythms (the important part of modern music) have a lot more combinations. katy perry's writers used the exact same rhythm with the same notes, which is highly improbable

even in punk, it would be plagiarism if you have four sequences of 8 repeated notes but with 4 different tones
578.

three different tones, but you are ignoring the most important aspect of modern music: rhythm. a modern music piece uses only a few different tones
579.

the repetition is super important. in modern music the rhythm is more important than the variety of tones. the same rhythm and the same tonal distance is too big to be a coincidence

i am actually a musician, the rhythm is important and a sequence of 16 notes at the same rhythm and the same tonal distance is too big to be a coincidence

16 notes in the same sequence? that's too big of a coincidence
582.

in the graphic 16 notes are green (meaning the same) so saying 3 is not accurate at all

so essentially the physical books are expensive purely to pad out their bottom line? digital is a poor replacement for physical books in my experience

from your link: "In the Western world, Persia (or one of its cognates) was historically the common name for Iran" so I will stick to saying colonial as it accurately points to the western world as opposed to Africa or Asia for exa

you mean Iranian right? "Persian" is a colonial term
