yea precisely. Sound design is less about how it really sounds, but more about how you think it should sound + some flair to make it a show.

Fun fact! sometimes in movies when there’s a big fire sound designers will put animal roars into the fire sounds to add an extra layer of fear you don’t even realise your body is going to react to

I don’t know where I read it but the best defence to “if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear” is “I don’t have anything to hide but I don’t trust your judgment or intentions”

the sound design of the real world is rather boring and often unappealing. Sound designers on movies are gods of those audiotary universes, they will paint it however they want

miraculous survival? world’s first talking head? depends on the exact wording and if you got your intro from a benevolent fairy or a genie

coma would be the universe being nice to you. Imagine a full body paralysis where you’re aware of every second passing and the only thing you can do is rot, and maybe hope twitter’s head clown puts a dodgy chip in your brain so maybe you could feel the joy of playing solitaire again.

I think just the fact that the answer could be something like: “2 more years, suicide” is a no-go for me. I’m not a suicidal person so hearing something like this would absolutely fucking terrify me. I think the more time I’d have left the more freaked out I’d get, constantly wonder when will it start? When will the hell that pushes me to take my own life begin?

oh just because you know when you’ll die doesn’t mean you can go yolo on everything. Getting into a horrific accident and becoming bed ridden for the rest of your life doesn’t count as dying. Imagine laying in bed, body paralysed, knowing that this is the place you’ll spend 30 years in.

You’d still be need to be as careful as usual, just with a painful awareness of how many seconds you have left until the end, and with a curse of not being able to go on your own terms if something terrible happens.

and even if tomorrow cometh thine coin shan’t ever be as powerful as today

it did not take me long to figure out that maybe spyware that takes screenshots of what you’re doing is a bad idea

they needed researchers to tell them that?

if it makes you feel any better you’d go to prison if you decided to run a ponzi scheme… unless you’re a bank, that is

how to tech your kid lying is good in two easy steps lmao

I’m doing it for the bit, a week ago i got high and thought how funny it’d be to stop smoking because drugs told me to. So i did lmao

“sponsored” results which I count as ads

it works half the time?

If I google something in English I’m going to get results in English (plus localised ads of course). But if I have a linguistic question about English, no matter how advanced, I’m going to get surface level results in Polish.

Tbf whatever info they have on me imples they’re very confused. I get ads about: “stay legally in Poland! :)” and “leave Poland and get a job in the Netherlands/Germany! :)” then “polish lessons!” and “English lessons!”, I’m starting to think that in the eyes of the AI overlords I’m both polish and not polish at the same time.

I’m sure Zelensky would agree in a heartbeat to defend Ukraine in a 1v1. But getting the coward Putin to do that? No way in hell that’d happen

additional suggestion - for close up shots use a wide angle lens or a shallow depth of field - to distance your photo from the “bad review pointing out flaws” look

Duda said it? Yeah let’s just ignore that

best animals

maybe humanity shouldn’t have written so many dystopian cyberpunk books and pieces of media, gave us all the wrong ideas :|
