  • You can get an audio compressor extension on most browsers too. It functions by reducing volume above a threshold and increasing overall output to compensate.

    On the flip side, if a poor audio mixer overly does this to make their track sound louder, services such as YouTube penalize the volume of the entire audio track.

    Human ears are more sensitive to certain sounds, so boosting certain frequencies can make something sound louder without necessarily increasing the overall amplitude of the sound waves (air pressure).




  • I’ve reported directly to the head before. Here’s why they don’t like remote work. These bosses are typically highly narcissist paired with paranoia.

    I think many CEOs thinks like Trump, so let’s work off that. They have narcissism and paranoia. They are highly insecure. They assume the worst and others, but have ridiculously high expectations.

    Trump can’t fathom people doing the right thing for the sake of it. He has never done a thing that didn’t benefit him. He can’t imagine not cheating someone given a chance. He’s cheated every single time.

    My CEO was highly paranoid. He decided to setup cameras anywhere. He started confronting employees who left early or arrived later not understanding that everybody doesn’t arrive or leave the office at the same time. Even though the company needed focus on the agenda, he spent most of his time stalking employees.

    When I was confronted for leaving early, I had to explain that I’m still working while making a delivery on my way home, or that it’s okay for me to be late if the first thing I do when I wake up is to respond to urgent emails and make important calls. This resulted in retaliatory pay cuts, so I quit. Of course, the business could not afford to lose me, so now I do contract work for more than double per hour and found a new job that treats everyone a lot better.

    These people are truly detached from reality. Their poisoned brains prevent them from understanding basic human nature. The only side of human nature they understand is how people bend over for money. They’re control freaks.

    Keeping you in office means they have the ability to pressure you. Emotional manipulation through micro management or unreasonable expectations. They know that at home, they can’t see you squirm. At work, you’re not safe, but at home, you are.









  • Rep. Hardy Billington, R-Poplar Bluff, was among the few who spoke against the bill, arguing that barring pregnant teenagers from getting married would increase abortion rates.

    “We all claim to be pro-life here in the body,” Billington said. “Now we’re going to vote on this bill where babies are going to die.”

    Disgusting. What a pitiful excuse to enable the trafficking of children. I’m ashamed to live here. There’s no fucking guarantee that it would even increase abortion rate, this guy is a closeted pedophile looking out for his ilk.

    Apparently he’s been spouting this bullshit for at least the past year. Not to mention he’s also a homophobe.

    You normally use dates to keep track of a series of stuff for future reference. We read left to right.

    Do you want to read 01 or 2013 first? Do you care about the day and month if it’s from 13 years ago?

    Relevance is made much more apparent in my opinion.

    They reversed my ban from the comics sub after appealing.

    It’s still extremely problematic that this being painted as incels vs pizza. She has had bad takes on free health care, male survivors, and equating all criticism to misogynistic haters. She doubles down and never argues in good faith.

    I really like BHJ. It’s fun and chill. She just didn’t like that people were being critical of her takes. The mods were actively removing hateful content and responses. They expressed willingness to help remove any offending content.

    Now, you can’t even mention her name on the sub without threat of ban. It’s ridiculous that she’d try DMCA against something so clearly fair use. Weaponizing it like that isn’t even legal. The mods couldn’t be bothered to fight it though.

    I politically agree with her mostly and find some of her comics sincerely funny, but she’s still being a dick.

    Yeah, no. A male SA survivor expressed sincere perspective, claiming the original comic insensitive. It was the top comment before it was removed with many other responses. Just read the posts linked in the comment below the one I shared. It’s not incel garbage (mostly), she’s an intolerable Karen. She’s got the mods censoring that sub, it’s one of the reasons I left reddit. (I’ve been banned multiple times for expressing these facts.) They ban people for being critical. I think hating her for being unfunny or having an only fans is dumb. On the other hand, hating on her for being an unapologetic asshole is fine. She’s earned it.

    Edit: just read the convo

    I don’t think that’s how that works. Historically, peace rarely gets results. Do you think the end of the holocaust came about through peaceful protest? French or American revolution? The hands off protest was marked 3rd largest in US history by Wikipedia and nothing has changed. Black lives matter protests were arguably ineffective considering we elected Trump again. We see time and time again that armed conservatives and police forces freely obtain what they want so much to the point that their most desperate members felt comfortable enough to storm the Capitol and they got pardoned. I think the mindset to advocate for peace isn’t one that aligns with results. We see the results. I don’t like violence, but I know they’d love to inflict violence against me.
