Amazing how they worked around with 4 tracks back in the day. Iirc, even Bohemia Rhapsody was recorded on 16 tracks and they had to essentially record, bump everything to a single track, record again.

Doesn't Lite limit you to 16 tracks? That gets over quickly once you start producing serious music. The Push + Live Suit bundle is good value imo. Though you should ask what you're going to use it for. I use it mostly as an arrang

It's a rather complicated question. Intention matters a lot when it comes to dealing with on-road incidents. If there is no intention, we deem it an "accident", else we deem it manslaughter. The punishment - by courts and by

Good for the people once the system is perfected. Not so much for the ones who get run while the system is being perfected. The "greater good" utilitarian argument has been the basis of some of the worst policies and politics in t

So you mean being okay with a multibillion dollar corporation harming people so it can make even more profits, all the while telling you that it's "good for society" Gee, where have I heard that script before?

Come on. It's one thing to be run over by a fellow human being, it's another to be run over by a system developed by a corporation in the pursuit of greater profits. As a species, we've long accepted that living around each o

I think the tech industry has been infected by a monopoly mindset, that the only way to build a business is to be the only business in that space. It doesn't help that the most visible "successful" tech companies are all mono

While I'll be very happy if we stop bursting firecrackers (its not in the spirit of Diwali; I hate the noise; my dogs hate the noise), much of the pollution is because of crop burning. Because firecrackers alone can't explain why

To add to that, outside of a few states, fertility rate is well below replacement level for most states. The problem is that these rogue states have a) very high fertility (3.3 for Bihar iirc) and b) very high base population which greatly

India has the highest proportion of arable land in the world. Lack of land isn't India's problem. We've long had the resources to house and feed our population, which, ironically, is the reason why we have so much population

Its a perfectly legitimate business that brings in billions of dollars and may even be profitable with some optimization. To call it a scam a la a Ponzi scheme is a little too harsh.
