I feel like the level of snark in your reply is… High. It doesn’t make for a pleasant interaction, and it doesn’t help make lemmy a nice place to be.

So, if the image you want to put into your email is not hosted somewhere, what’s the best way to go about this, ensuring compatibility?

Is it possible to put images in an email without them showing up like this?

Would fibre reduce the need for pressurisation?

As someone who knows that they know very little about git, this thread makes me think I’m not alone.

It’s like, gotta be just one line of code, right?

Genuine question - why would the house numbers be different?

In urban areas, I’m used to house numbers starting at 1 at one end of the street, then incrementing as you go along. Usually odds and evens are on the opposite sides of the street. So the house on the corner will be 1, the house opposite it will be 2, the house next to 1 will be 3, and so on.

Each street starts the numbers again.

Is this not the case where you are?

I guess it’s a function of the kind of gigs I tend to work- The stage tends to not exist before we walk in. And if you’ve got 32+ stage inputs, it’s certainly nicer to run a couple of fibre lines than a chonky stage snake with 32+ XLR lines.

The only difference between the digital boards you’ve seen is the digital conversion circuitry is not in the same box as the mixing circuitry.

Generally these days the run from stage to mixing desk is digital.

What you want to avoid is too many conversions. At some point the signal is analog, like strings or vocal cords vibrating. Ideally you’ll only have one conversion to digital- say, the stage box you plug the mic into. From there it’s digital through foldback desk, front of house mixing desk, effects, recording, etc all the way up to and including amplifiers, which will convert back to high power analog to drive the speakers.

Having a bunch of other conversions in there - eg guitar pickup to digital, back to analog for the amplifier stage, digital to the desk, analog out to digital amps, all introduce latency and quality degradation.

I’ve paid anywhere from five bucks to get Madge at the corner shop to smear some vaguely avocado looking goop onto burnt white bread, to twenty bucks for gobs of perfectly ripe avo on artisanal sourdough with lemon myrtle dressing, garnished with some kind of deep fried flower and a bit of grass on top to look pretty.

Aussie reporting in. I can’t recall the last cafe that I went to that did not have avocado on toast, in some form, on the menu.

What always gets me when I see paper like this, is just how much manpower, engineering time, experimentation, materials science, and just sheer concerted effort went into making paper this fucking thin and useless.

It’s a very good lesson- to the point where I wouldn’t be surprised if the teacher is deliberately putting an arbitrary restriction on the assignment.

If you want to have a career, the people that pay you are going to make you do things that you consider to be ridiculous. That’s work, that’s life. You’ve got three options- Just smile and nod and do it their way, get huffy and tell them that you don’t like their yapping and you’ll do their project your own way, or politely suggest there may be an alternative way, and ask if they are willing to be flexible with some requirements.

Might be worth checking out Art of the Rail. True to the thread, it’s not developed yet, but is coming soon.

It’s economy based, but I think there was mention of a creative mode.

No-one is too old to learn Discord, past a certain age you just realise it’s IRC with pictures.

I’m picturing a whole drawer, is that correct? Next to like a gas cylinder?

It’s not so much about the audience perspective as it is the layout of the building. Just like backstage is the area behind the stage, other areas like behind the bar, or the storage areas, green rooms, offices, tech rooms, weird tunnels full of mysterious cables, etc are all collectively ‘back of house’.

Like when you go to a big box store and they see if they’ve got something ‘out the back’, the back of house areas are those generally not seen by the public. The term front of house likely evolved as the opposite of this.

In theater it’s sometimes called the ‘Bio Box’. However, in theatre it is often tucked away right up the top, and is called 'The Gods '.

The region was defined by constant conflict and instability before Britain and France were even a twinkle in a Celtic eye.

Depending on where the breaker is relative to the UPS, of course.

I’m trying to understand what I’m missing.

I might be getting my latitude and longitude confused- but I think that one degree of latitudal (east-west, right?) travel would result in a different distance depending on how far north or south I am? I’m thinking of it like walking around the equator, as opposed to walking in a circle around Santa’s house, which is obviously directly on top of the north pole.

But if I travel one degree of longitude, no matter where I am the distance would be the same, right?
