The Artificial General Intelligence Control Problem

2015.08.29 08:21 CyberPersona The Artificial General Intelligence Control Problem

Someday, AI will likely be smarter than us; maybe so much so that it could radically reshape our world. We don't know how to encode human values in a computer, so it might not care about the same things as us. If it does not care about our well-being, its acquisition of resources or self-preservation efforts could lead to human extinction. Experts agree that this is one of the most challenging and important problems of our age. Other terms: Superintelligence, AI Safety, Alignment Problem, AGI

2024.05.19 18:19 careve27 How do you decide to let go of your full time job money to pursue law?

I graduated in 2020 with a Bachelors in Criminal Justice. I worked for a small law firm after. I enjoyed the work more or less, but our views didn’t align. I left after nearly a year. In 2021, I started working for the county court. It’s a great job, I do like it. I get to be around judges and attorneys all day. Pay isn’t great, but I’m single, no kids, so I’m living relatively well. I already planned to leave in October to find a higher paying job. I’ve juggled the thought of law school for a few years now. I turned 26 in January and for some reason the thought became more serious. I’ve been studying for the LSAT since. Now my plan is to leave my job in November, travel around Europe for a few months, and come back and either be ready to start a new job or go to law school. But the truth is, I have a 3.2 GPA. Though I have work experience in the legal field, I’m not sure I’d have a high chance of getting in to law school, even if I breakthrough the 170s. I’ve read so many posts, watched videos, and articles underlining the fact that immeasurable stress lies ahead (LSAT, law school, bar, job search.) I know this path is far from easy. Plus the cost and time, I’ll be 30 by the time I’m finished! Then, I’ll have to start over in a career. Just how… how do you let go of your independence, your money, and sanity to go back to being a broke student in the pursue of a professional degree? Does this mean I’m simply not ready? I just need advice, a sign, or a prayer lol.

2024.05.19 18:11 CulturalPoint972 Anki deck for bootcamp

Hello everyone! I’m an incoming MS1 and am planning out which resources I want to use this upcoming school year. I’ve heard lots of good things about bootcamp so want to start with that. I loved using Anki for the MCAT so I want to incorporate that as well. Is there a specific deck that aligns with the bootcamp videos? Or any tips? Thanks!

2024.05.19 18:09 dpsx Specific request that's hard to explain

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0CpOYZZZW4
So for context I watched this video about the Star Wars hotel at Disneyland- it's 4 hours long lol she goes into a lot of detail. But basically it's a two-day thing where you're staying at this hotel and there's character actors you can interact with and minigames and sort of 'questlines' you can progress, which align you with different factions etc. It didn't work irl but sounds like an interesting format for a game. As in, a short, immersive interactive experience set in a relatively small area, with roleplaying/puzzle/escape mechanics, and multiple storylines/endings depending on which characters you interact with and progress their quests? To be clear, not an escape room game but a game with story and dialogue, and not a point and click adventure game, just not personally a fan of that genre.
Edit: remembered "The Forgotten City" which I really enjoyed and is similar to the vibe I'm looking for

I'm hoping for your help on this. This is a watch I have always wanted since (ironically) I saw a replica of one. I have read that it can be hard to QC the bezel/dial as the domed sapphire tends to distort the relationship between the two depending on the angle you view the watch at. The QC video clip they sent would seem to indicate all is good as the watch is rotated, but some of the individual photos give the impression that the bezel/dial alignment could be off on the RHS at the 2 and 4 hour markers. I'd appreciate your feedback.

2024.05.19 16:48 Itz_Gh0sty2 How to make it so that the cookie activates the Click counter in the Simple Cookie Clicker game i'm making.

I've recently started to learn python, and I'm trying to make a simple cookie clicker game for a class. I'm kind of following this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXx3acg34S0&t=316s but I didn't use an image and decided to draw the cookie out by hand. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that when I click the cookie, the counter goes up. Also, the turtle doesn't disappear when I use hideturtle(). So far, the closest I've gotten was when I clicked the Screen, the counter goes up, and the whole cookie disappears. It is when I used sc.onclick(clicked). This is my code:
from turtle import *
sc = Screen()
sc.bgcolor('black')
hideturtle()
speed(0)
up()
goto(0,-100)
down()
fillcolor('darkgoldenrod')
begin_fill()
c = circle(100)
cookie = Turtle()
cookie.shape(c)
end_fill()
fillcolor('saddlebrown')
begin_fill()
up()
goto(-35, 35)
down()
circle(20)
end_fill()

2024.05.19 13:38 PixelPeter2023 FF14 Beats WoW in every aspect, but the PF Solo Raiding experience is horrendous.

((Warning, long post))
Hello, fellow MMO enthusiast!
Before I get into my thoughts and seek your feedback on this topic, let me introduce myself and share a bit about my experience with Final Fantasy XIV. I've been a World of Warcraft player for about 14 years. Like many MMO players, I was aware of XIV but never gave it a try because it didn't initially seem appealing, especially since I'm more focused on raiding than lore, which is heavily promoted in this game.
Boy, was I wrong.
I recently switched to XIV, and I have to admit, I'm hooked. Everything about this game is perfect for me: the soundtracks, both in and out of raids, the boss design, the mechanics, the variety of glamour items, the friendly community, and the social aspects of the game. I could go on and on, but I can't believe I didn't try this game years ago. Since starting, I've been trying to convince all my WoW friends to join because this game is fantastic.
I could continue praising this game endlessly. I truly fell in love with it. The only downsides are getting used to the animation lag and the initially strange UI. But there's one aspect that really drains my enthusiasm and motivation to play, which is disappointing because everything else is so enjoyable.
Raiding in this game as a "solo" player is beyond frustrating. I know this can be countered with "just get a static, bro," but since we're at the end of the current expansion, it's tough for a new player to find one that suits me. I'm either too new for sHC/HC statics or too dedicated for casual ones. Finding good statics for older ultimate content like UWU/TEA is also challenging. So, I'll focus on the solo play via Party Finder aspect here.
I have never, and I mean this literally, encountered so many problems and frustrations with raiding in a game in such a short period as I have in FFXIV. I recently began raiding and, like most people aiming for ultimates, I started with the easiest one: UWU. It took me a few days of analyzing logs and watching videos to grasp the fight. After about four days of an incredibly painful Party Finder experience to get accustomed to everything, I got very lucky and was invited to a static group that was temporarily missing a Main Tank and was aiming for a clear. Within two days, we managed to clear it, and everything seemed fine.
However, this is where the nightmare started. After leaving the static since I got my clear and their main tank returned, I attempted to solo clear it to farm more totems. It took me 7 days of raiding for 4-6 hours each day in various Party Finder groups just to get a single re-clear. If you enjoy numbers like I do, here are some statistics, as I like to document my progress and keep track of it:
(All of this was tracked by Chat GPT, to summarise my days of raiding)
So, the total number of groups is 29.
It took me a staggering 29 PF Groups to secure just one re-clear. It doesn't seem to align with the typical PF experience, does it? Perhaps it's due to the upcoming expansion, with returning players trying their hand at reclearing for fun or to shake off the rust. While I understand that PF raiding isn't the gold standard, what exactly is causing this persistent issue? I've repeatedly heard from fellow PF participants that there's a rampant issue of players misrepresenting their progress. Could this be the root cause? Granted, I'm not immune to mistakes either—nobody is. Each group I joined endured for approximately an hour, sometimes more, sometimes less. It's astounding to realize it consumed nearly 40 hours of my time in re-clear attempts, and this does not even include waiting times, and mind you, these groups were meant for individuals who had cleared the Ultimate, i exclusively joined or created only re-clear [duty completion] runs.
And let's not even delve into the TEA or P4S/P8S experience, which feels even more challenging because it's significantly less popular. I'm earnestly trying to discern whether this is a consistent issue within the PF raiding landscape or if it's perhaps isolated to older Ultimate/Savage content. Have any of you encountered similar challenges with TOP/DSR ultimates or newer content in general?
It's a no-win situation. I'm stuck between wasting my time by sticking around for hours, realizing early on that the group isn't making any progress—like when folks join for P3 on TEA without grasping the mechanics even before we get there, or leaving within 30 minutes and being branded as the "toxic, impatient tank" that people might blacklist. Just to clarify, I'm always polite when I do leave early, although it's a rare occurrence.
I've developed a deep affection for this game, but the solo raiding experience is gradually sapping away my motivation, especially since raiding has always been my primary focus. It would be disheartening because every other aspect of the game is incredibly enjoyable and entertaining.
What are your thoughts on this matter?

2024.05.19 13:18 PLpro12 What are the best practices for optimizing Amazon FBA product images and videos reddit?

Importance of High-Quality Visuals

First impressions matter, especially in the competitive landscape of online retail. High-quality images and videos not only entice potential customers but also instill trust and credibility in your brand. With Amazon FBA, where customers rely solely on digital representations of products, optimizing visuals becomes a non-negotiable aspect of success.

Image Optimization Techniques

1. High-Resolution Images

Ensure that your product images are of high resolution to showcase every detail with clarity. Low-quality images not only diminish the perceived value of your products but also reflect poorly on your brand's professionalism.

2. Multiple Angles and Perspectives

Offering multiple angles and perspectives of your products allows customers to make informed purchasing decisions. Include close-ups and shots from different angles to provide a comprehensive view of the product.

3. Consistent Branding

Maintain consistent branding across all product images to reinforce brand identity and recognition. Incorporate logos, color schemes, and design elements that align with your brand image.

4. White Backgrounds

Utilize white backgrounds for product images to minimize distractions and focus the viewer's attention solely on the product. This clean and minimalist approach enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of your listings.

5. Image Alt Text

Optimize image alt text with relevant keywords to improve visibility in search results and assist visually impaired users in understanding the content of the images. Incorporate descriptive yet concise alt text that accurately depicts the product.

Video Optimization Strategies

1. Engaging Product Demonstrations

Create engaging product demonstrations that showcase the features and benefits of your products in action. Demonstrate how the product can be used in real-life scenarios to provide value to potential customers.

2. Professional Production Quality

Invest in professional production quality to ensure that your videos are visually appealing and convey a sense of professionalism. High-quality production values reflect positively on your brand and inspire confidence in your products.

3. Concise and Informative Content

Keep video content concise and informative, focusing on key selling points and unique selling propositions (USPs) of the product. Avoid lengthy videos that may deter viewers and prioritize clarity and brevity.

4. Optimize Video Titles and Descriptions

Craft compelling video titles and descriptions that incorporate relevant keywords to enhance discoverability and attract viewers. Utilize descriptive language and persuasive messaging to entice users to click on your videos.

5. Call to Action (CTA)

Include a clear call to action (CTA) at the end of your videos to encourage viewers to take the next step, whether it's making a purchase, subscribing to your channel, or visiting your website. A well-placed CTA can significantly impact conversion rates and drive engagement.

🔗Killer Instinct Lumix 4x32 Black Ir-E Crossbow Scope with LED Illumination


https://preview.redd.it/3qq4og626d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fc7676684001ccf5ae92a483625cebd5991def58
I recently had the opportunity to try out the Killer Instinct Lumix 4x32 Ir-E Crossbow Scope. This black 1021 model was a great addition to my hunting gear, providing exceptional clarity thanks to its multicoated optics and 1-inch mono tube construction. The fast focus eyepiece is a game-changer, allowing me to quickly adjust my sight even when on the move.
One feature that stood out was the illuminated cross-hair reticle, which came in both blue and red. It was perfect for low-light situations, making it easier for me to spot my target. I appreciated the adjustment click value of 0.5 inches at 100 yards, as it gave me accurate and consistent shot adjustments.
However, there were a few downsides to this otherwise great scope. The exit pupil was smaller than I would have liked, making it a bit more challenging to see the cross-hair reticle at times. Additionally, the scope's weight was lighter than expected, which might not have been ideal for everyone.
Overall, I'm happy with my experience using the Killer Instinct Lumix 4x32 Ir-E Crossbow Scope. It's a quality product with some small drawbacks, but its pros certainly outweigh the cons. If you're in the market for a reliable crossbow scope, this one is definitely worth considering.

🔗Mil-Spec Detachable AR-15 Carry Handle


https://preview.redd.it/6d7ydxc26d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7ee10f8948f8cbfd7095ce367789dcf067a5aeed
I recently had the chance to try out this detachable carry handle for an AR-15 rifle. The black finish perfectly matched the rest of my gun, and the Mil-Spec construction added a level of durability I hadn't experienced before. Attaching and detaching it was a breeze, and it blended well with my existing red dot sight.
However, I did find that it added a bit of weight to the overall gun, which I noticed especially after carrying it for extended periods of time. Overall, it's a solid choice for anyone looking to add a reliable carrying handle to their AR-15 setup.

https://preview.redd.it/ciylb7o26d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3836466afdba226d7889d9609c4cde2d57c1748
The National Geographic CF600 Carbon Fiber telescope has been my trusty companion for some stargazing sessions. Its sleek black carbon fiber design not only looks cool but is sturdy enough to handle the wear and tear of my eager fingers. The scope's 50mm lens and focal length of 600mm provide a great starting point for anyone interested in amateur astronomy, allowing me to get a decent view of the moon and some of the brighter stars in the night sky.
One of the telescope's standout features is the alt-azimuth mount and tripod combo. It's smooth and easy to use, making it simple for me to move the scope up, down, and side to side while scanning the sky. I appreciate the two included eyepieces, which offer a range of magnification options, making the scenery even more intricate and detailed.
However, my experience hasn't been entirely rosy. The tripod and pan handle could have been more robust. I found that they tended to wobble and shake, not necessarily due to the weight of the telescope but the vibration of my hands as I adjusted the scope. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's a noticeable drawback.
Overall, the National Geographic CF600 Carbon Fiber telescope is a great first telescope for the aspiring astronomy enthusiast in need of a simple and stylish tool to explore the night sky. With a few improvements, it could offer an even more enchanting starry-eyed experience.

I've been using the Sky-Watcher EvoGuide 50DX as my guide scope for a few weeks now, and let me tell you, it's been quite the journey. The first thing that struck me was the stunning contrast of the images it delivered. The ED glass really does its job in providing those deep, rich views of the stars.
The finder stalk and V-style mounting rail made it a breeze to attach this little gem to my bracket. It was a smooth process and really made me feel like a pro astronomer.

The built-in T-threads are also a bonus. With an optional adapter, I can easily transform it into a low-focal length astrograph. It's perfect for those times when I want to change up my observing style.

I recently tried the Klein Tools ET16 Borescope for Android devices, and my experience was quite interesting. The product features a 10-foot (3m) armored gooseneck cable, which is a great addition for extended reach. However, I noticed that the camera seemed a bit tricky to operate with one hand while holding the phone in the other.
One of the highlights of the product is its waterproof IP67 9 mm camera, which captures high-quality 640 x 480 pixel images and videos. I had no issues sharing these images and videos via text or email using the Klein Tools App available on Google Play store.
While the borescope app is available on Google Play store, I found that some users experienced difficulties in connecting the device. I personally didn't face such an issue, but I noticed that the app didn't require any additional charging as it runs off the phone battery.
Overall, my experience with the Klein Tools ET16 Borescope was mixed. On one hand, the product's features worked well and helped me capture images and videos effortlessly.

In my experience, the UZI 5x20 Periscope has been a handy tool for surveillance and exploration. Made of durable anodized aluminum housing, this periscope offers a sleek and weatherproof design. The glass lenses and prisms provided a sharp and clear view, allowing me to see in detail from a distance.
One feature that stood out is the focusing eyepiece, which made it easy to adjust the focus based on the distance to the object I was observing. However, the lack of a detachable handle made it more difficult to hold and maneuver the periscope confidently when using it for extended periods.
The height adjustment was a great addition, allowing me to see above and around obstacles for an improved view. The carrying case with a shoulder strap also made it convenient to transport and store the periscope when not in use.
Overall, the UZI 5x20 Periscope has been a reliable tool for my daily needs, but its lack of a detachable handle and potential for some difficulty in assembling the scope properly were noticeable drawbacks.

🔗Compact NATO Top Handle for Select Sony Cameras


https://preview.redd.it/kugs2wv66d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=71d78bb5ab171d5c52f7a26dfee5730d8935f3ab
This Compact Nato Top Handle from Tilta has been a game-changer in my daily video shooting routine. It's a comfortable and ergonomic addition to my Sony a7 IV full camera cage, providing a secure attachment. The aluminum and stainless steel construction adds a sleek touch to my setup, and the black finish blends in perfectly.
One of the highlights of this handle is its compatibility with select Tilta cages, making it a versatile accessory. The multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting points come in handy when attaching external accessories. Even the front cold shoe mounting point is a great feature. However, I couldn't help but notice an issue with the rear Arri mount holes. They appear to have the smaller, non-standard screw, making it incompatible with some accessories I wanted to use.
Despite this minor setback, the overall experience with this handle has been positive. Its compact design suits small cameras well, and the Nato rails on the other side add an extra layer of stability. The aluminum and stainless steel construction not only adds ruggedness but also gives it a premium look.

🔗Portable Telescope Carry Handle for VC, VMC, and Refractor Models

As an enthusiastic amateur astronomer, I've been keeping a close eye out for accessories and tools that make handling my telescope smoother and more enjoyable. That's why when I stumbled upon the Vixen Optics Metal Carry Handle, I couldn't resist giving it a try.
From the get-go, this little handle seemed like a practical and sturdy solution to make transporting my telescope much more manageable. The metal construction provided me with the reassurance of durability, not to mention it offered a perfect balance of weight distribution.
However, it wasn't until closer inspection that I noticed a few essential details. For starters, the handle was designed solely for specific telescope models (VC, VMC, and refractor types), and it appeared that not every telescope would be compatible. Additionally, it came with only one screw, and the lack of a multi-tool was somewhat disappointing.
Despite these minor quibbles, I found the Vixen Optics Metal Carry Handle to be a worthwhile investment. It has greatly streamlined my stargazing experience, giving me peace of mind as I transport my telescope to different locations with ease.

When it comes to scope selection, a carry handle scope is a versatile and practical choice for many shooters. Whether you're an avid hunter, target shooter, or competitive marksman, a carry handle scope can provide you with a reliable and accurate sighting system. In this buyer's guide, we'll discuss the features and considerations that are important when selecting a carry handle scope.

Features

Carry Handle Design

A carry handle scope should have a strong and durable carry handle that allows for easy and comfortable carrying of your firearm. Look for a handle that is ergonomically designed and made from a material that provides a good grip, such as rubber or polymer. The scope should also have a solid mount that securely attaches the scope to your firearm, ensuring a stable and aligned sight picture.

Lens Quality


https://preview.redd.it/raeaumy96d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7f352a4b5b4b3f5e62030ff53a2a3a2f14781994
The quality of the lenses in a carry handle scope is essential for accurate and clear sighting. Look for a scope with high-quality lenses made from low-dispersion glass, which reduces chromatic aberration and provides a crisp and clear image. The lenses should also be fully multi-coated to minimize glare and improve light transmission. This will result in a brighter, clearer, and sharper image, even in low-light conditions.

Magnification and Objective Lens Size

The magnification and objective lens size of a carry handle scope are important factors to consider. The magnification determines how much the image is magnified, while the objective lens size affects the amount of light that enters the scope. A scope with a larger objective lens will typically provide a brighter image, while higher magnification allows you to see targets at greater distances. Choose a scope with the appropriate magnification and objective lens size based on your shooting needs and environment.

Considerations

Budget

As with any purchase, budget is an important consideration when shopping for a carry handle scope. Higher-end scopes will typically offer better optics, more advanced features, and a more robust construction. However, there are also many quality scopes available within a lower price range. Consider your budget and the priorities for your shooting needs when selecting a carry handle scope.

Purpose and Environment

The purpose and environment in which you will be using your carry handle scope are also important factors to consider. Hunters may require a scope with a greater magnification range and more advanced features for precise shot placement, while target shooters and competitive marksmen may prioritize clarity and accuracy at a fixed range. The environmental conditions you will be shooting in, such as light levels and weather, should also be taken into account when selecting a carry handle scope.

Advice

When looking for a carry handle scope, it's essential to read reviews and do your research. Talk to other shooters, consult with a professional at your local shooting or outdoor store, and read online forums and reviews to get an idea of what to expect from different scopes. Be sure to properly test the scope in your environment before making a final decision, and always follow proper scope mounting and care procedures to ensure the best performance and longevity.
As with any purchase, be sure to choose a carry handle scope from a reputable manufacturer or retailer. This will help ensure that you are getting a quality product with reliable performance. Lastly, don't forget to factor in the cost of additional accessories, such as scope covers, sunshades, and mounts, which may be necessary for optimal performance and protection of your scope.

Two weeks ago I posted a vlog that got around 50 hrs and my scale has been going down due to being over the one year mark. Loke literally went down 30 hrs in that two week frame when between two videos I've had 100 + from what studio says I've noticed them not aligning but now it's evident witb losing so much without any gain
I understand it's a rotating system where it's within the last year but within the last year I've had enough view hrs (looked through studio) to reach monetization. So I'm wondering if anyone else experienced that

2024.05.19 12:17 Juicy_Tripy Smart & Reusable Text + Box

Created in canva
Hello dear community, I composed in Canva what I would like to create in Resolve for my card game videos: the frame at the bottom of my screenshot. I want to display the information of the new card being played in my video, which have variable length of text. I have watched several videos on text effects and editing but I'm still not sure how to approach this task: create a "smart text box"
I have tried splitting the job in 2, by downloading and use the plugin "BetterSrames" from a youtuber and then added a "Text+" element on top of it. But very soon it was a nightmare of text alignment and size. I couldn't make it look like my canva, and working with spaces between words to reach the visual aspect seems wrong. I can't see myself redo it for every card played in my video. So I'm reaching out for advices.
Do you know of a plugin which could do that? Or is it possible to create a smart template in fusion to do this? I would be very grateful on tips / strategy on how to approach this. Best

Setting it up was a breeze thanks to the plug and play compatibility, working seamlessly with my audio interface and mixer. The build quality is premium, giving me confidence that this microphone will last me for a long time.

I recently purchased the Zingyou Condenser Microphone Bundle for my home studio setup, and I must say it has truly exceeded my expectations. I was initially drawn to its user-friendly design, which includes an informative assembly video and easy-to-follow instructions. In terms of performance, this microphone delivers excellent sound quality, capturing even the most subtle nuances of my vocals.

One of the standout features of this microphone is its ease of use. Within minutes of unboxing, I had the entire bundle assembled and ready to go. Furthermore, the size and flexibility of the stand make it easy to position the microphone wherever needed, making it perfect for various recording scenarios. Overall, I believe the Zingyou Condenser Microphone Bundle offers exceptional value for its price, providing professional-grade sound quality and durability without breaking the bank.
However, there are a few minor drawbacks worth mentioning. Firstly, some users have reported issues with the sound card not working properly, though I personally have not experienced this issue.

🔗AKG C414 XLII/ST Stereo Matched Pair Microphones


https://preview.redd.it/sc9u184roc1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4e344495379a587088ceb09d35c96c15a1e63908
I've been using the AKG C414 XLII/ST Stereo Matched Pair for a while now, and I must say, it's a game-changer in my home studio. This pair of condenser microphones has a knack for capturing high-fidelity audio, making my recordings sound much more dynamic.
One of the standout features of these microphones is their ability to switch between nine polar patterns. This flexibility allows me to tailor the sound capture for different applications, ranging from vocals to acoustic instruments like guitars or even percussion. The peak hold LED display is also incredibly useful, helping me avoid nasty overload peaks during live performances.
The C414 XLII version stands out from its sibling, the C414 XLS, mainly because of its unique capsule design. This design gives the mic a slightly brighter sound compared to the XLS, while also offering impressive spatial reproduction that's reminiscent of the legendary AKG C12 microphone from 1953.
On the downside, I've noticed that the C414 XLII can be quite sensitive to noise from surrounding sources, such as air conditioning systems. However, the built-in filter helps mitigate this issue, ensuring that my recordings remain clean and free of unwanted interference.
Overall, I've been extremely impressed with the AKG C414 XLII/ST Stereo Matched Pair. It's a versatile, high-quality microphone that has made a significant difference in the quality of my recordings. While it may be a bit pricey, I believe it's a worthwhile investment for anyone serious about capturing professional-sounding audio.

🔗PreSonus PM-2 Matched Pair Cardioid Condenser Microphones

https://preview.redd.it/qpxp7gfroc1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c6278ddb6105dfc0b988ac6239c627666c67775f

As a reviewer who's been using the PreSonus PM-2 microphones in my little home studio, I can't help but rave about them. These cardioid condenser mics are a gem, offering a surprising level of clarity and versatility for a budget-friendly price.
One of the things that stood out to me was their ability to capture even the most subtle nuances of the acoustic guitar. The cardioid pattern helps deliver an amplified input audio, making it perfect for recording a range of instruments and ensembles.
The golden touch doesn't stop there. The gold-sputtered capsule ensures enhanced conductivity, enabling efficient signal transmission. And did I mention how light they are? The ultra-light chassis makes them incredibly easy to handle and convenient to use.
However, as with any product, there are some cons. Some users have reported issues of durability, with one microphone stopping working after just six hours of use. While this is a concern, it's important to note that these are budget-friendly mics and may not withstand the same level of abuse as higher-priced models.
Overall, I'd say the PreSonus PM-2 microphones are a fantastic choice for anyone looking to create detailed recordings in a studio setting. They offer great sound quality, especially when used in stereo mode. The build quality might not be top-notch, but the value they provide more than makes up for it. So, if you're on the hunt for affordable, high-quality mics, give these a try.

I also appreciated the brilliant and transparent sound quality it delivers, thanks to its ultra-wide frequency response and built-in Pop filter & windscreen.
On the flip side, the 5 Core Karaoke Singing Wired Mic might not be the best option for those who prefer a wireless microphone. Additionally, the lack of an on/off switch may be inconvenient for some users.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the 5 Core Karaoke Singing Wired Mic. Its combination of performance, durability, and versatility make it an excellent choice for any singer or performer looking to enhance their live performances. If you're in the market for a reliable microphone that won't let you down, I highly recommend giving this one a try!

Important Features of Cardioid Microphones

Cardioid microphones are an essential tool for any recording setup, both in professional and home-studio environments. These microphones offer a directional pickup pattern, primarily capturing sound waves originating directly in front of the microphone while minimizing off-axis sound. This feature makes cardioid microphones particularly useful for reducing unwanted noise and echoes. Here are some important features to consider when looking for a cardioid microphone:
  • Polar Pattern: Ensure that the microphone has a cardioid (also known as unidirectional) polar pattern. This ensures that it primarily picks up sound waves coming directly from the front and minimizes sound from the rear and sides, helping minimize background noise.
  • Sensitivity: Look for a microphone with a high sensitivity rating, as this indicates that it can reproduce quieter sounds more accurately, making it ideal for capturing subtle musical nuances or spoken words.
  • Frequency Response: A wide frequency response range will ensure that the microphone can accurately record a variety of instruments and vocal ranges, providing a balanced sound across different frequencies.
  • Self-Noise: The lower the self-noise rating, the less noise the microphone will introduce during recording, contributing to a cleaner overall sound quality.

Considerations for Choosing a Cardioid Microphone

When selecting a cardioid microphone, there are several factors you should consider to ensure that you get a microphone that meets your needs. These include:
  • Application: Determine the specific application you'll be using the microphone for. This could be voice-over work, live performances, studio recording, or podcasting. Different microphones may be better suited for specific applications, so choosing one that aligns with your intended use is crucial.
  • Budget: Set a budget for your microphone purchase, as prices can vary greatly. Make sure to prioritize features that are more essential to your needs while staying within your budget constraints.
  • Brand Reputation: Research the brand and choose a company with a history of manufacturing high-quality microphones. This will help ensure that you invest in a reliable product that holds up well over time.
  • Accessories: Consider whether any additional accessories like stands, mounts, or pop filters are necessary for your setup. Some microphones may include these accessories while others require separate purchases.

General Advice for Using Cardioid Microphones

To make the most of your cardioid microphone, consider the following advice:
  • Proper Placement: Position yourself at an appropriate distance from the microphone, typically between 6 and 12 inches away. This ensures that the microphone effectively captures the desired sound waves while minimizing background noise or plosives.
  • Avoid Sibilance: Proper microphone technique is essential to prevent sibilance, which can become evident during recording. Make sure to angle the microphone away from the direct line of the spoken word, and use a pop filter if necessary to further minimize sibilance.
  • Reduce Handling Noise: Invest in a high-quality shockmount or boom arm to reduce handling noise while recording in a home studio setup, or implement good microphone handling techniques when using a handheld microphone during live performances.

FAQ

  1. What is a cardioid microphone?
A cardioid microphone is a type of directional microphone that primarily captures sound from its front while minimizing noise from the sides and rear. Its name "cardioid" refers to the heart-shaped audio pickup pattern. These microphones are commonly used in stages, radio stations, and video recordings to capture voices or musical instruments accurately and with minimal background noise.
  1. How do cardioid microphones work?
Cardioid microphones work by having a diaphragm designed to respond more sensitively to sound waves coming from directly in front and less to those coming from the sides or back. This design enables these microphones to isolate the desired sound source and minimize the collection of unwanted noise, thus improving the overall audio quality.
  1. What are some common applications of cardioid microphones?
Cardioid microphones are commonly used in live performances, interviews, podcasts, and video recordings. They are ideal for capturing voices and musical instruments with high precision and minimum background noise. Examples of their applications include on-stage performances, radio interviews, and YouTube vlogs.
  1. How do cardioid microphones compare with other polar patterns?
Cardioid microphones have a heart-shaped pickup pattern that focuses on capturing sound from the front and minimizes noise from the sides and rear. Other polar patterns include omnidirectional (picking up sound from all directions), figure-eight (equal sensitivity to sound from front and back, less from sides), and supercardioid/hypercardioid (narrow frontal pickup and high rejection of side noise).
  1. Which are some popular manufacturers of cardioid microphones?
Some popular manufacturers of cardioid microphones include Rode, Shure, Sennheiser, Audio-Technica, and Blue Microphones. Each brand offers a variety of cardioid microphones, with different features and price points, to cater to various user requirements and budgets.

2024.05.19 08:22 jmeyer2030 Early Game AFK Emerald Farm

Video Demo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NJXZc4g8cEKy8L-3vIn9JHwFjw1SXjjY/view?usp=sharing
Hey guys, so this is an extension of Ianxofour's voidless void trading set up but made to be fully automatic for getting an infinite number of emeralds in survival. It uses two string trading villagers, a string duper some where on the rail, and a pretty simple AHK script to automate everything. Idk how y'all feel about scripts, but it makes my Minecraft experience more fun so I use them in my survival worlds...
The way it works is that you double click the top edge of the button while sitting in a minecart to open the trading menu and send you far enough from the villager that when you trade it doesn't consume the villager's trade inventory. The string duplicator makes sure you never run out of string. The script does all this but also every 40 trades, it empties your inventory into a chest so that you can fill your inventory with emeralds again.
Build Instructions:
  1. Create Ianxofour's voidless void trading set up with two fisherman villagers, with the rail running in the east west direction. One side will serve as the "starting side" for the purposes of the script, in the picture it is the left one.
  2. Create a string duplicator such that the string drops over the player rail (plenty of videos on this on YT)
  3. When facing the villager on the starting side in the player minecart, place a chest on your right one block up with two air blocks between you and the chest. (This is for emptying your inventory so it can be run for longer)
Script "as is" requirements:
The villager on the starting side needs to have string as the second trade, and the other side must have string as the first trade. 1920x1080 monitor, GUI size auto.
Use Instructions:
Enter windowed mode. Set your render and simulation distance to the minimum. Sit in the minecart on the starting side facing the villager, and looking straight down. Use f3 to make sure you are perfectly aligned. With the script running, press ctrl-g to start the farm. To exit the script press ctrl-esc
Final notes and customization Script Google Docs Link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-roqM4cY0MdShEIXzLrr0ue8zOeZLIwkEDrpjrne-nQ/edit?usp=sharing (You need to create a txt file, and save as .ahk)
The script is not perfect, but on my machine is extremely consistent and works overnight. Things like the amount your mouse moves can be changed to work with your computer if you so desire. Additionally you could mess with timings and rail design to optimize. On my survival world I have two string dupers since just one doesn't generate enough string.
I realize it would be outclassed by something using the end gateways, but I hate dealing with transporting mobs more than anything. Just thinking about it I'm getting flashbacks to making a shulker farm.

2024.05.19 07:01 Quiet-Interaction-23 How to be a pillar of support?

Backstory: Like everyone else here I come from a dysfunctional family with a history of abuse. There was also a religious aspect so a lot of shame/guilt/projections etc.
I'm coming to terms with the fact that I was pretty much brainwashed and had an incredibly distorted view of reality that only got better after a psychotic episode I had late adolescence/early adulthood. Im trying to "go through the fire" rather than just "move on" from the trauma and to put everything in a different lens has been earth shattering and heartbreaking for me. But I have a younger sibling that I'm especially worried about.
She's in high school right now, a little older than I was when I first started showing signs of the diagnosis I have now but she's definitely not well adjusted and in alignment with her peers. I played a part in her trauma though. I was not protective of her the way I should've been and treated her the way I was treated by my older siblings. When I was in hs I did what I could to be a better brother but I was starting to lose my mind and often isolated myself. She was just a kid and when I started having hallucinations I would 'hear' her knocking on my door asking to play again :(.
My mental health is better, hard to say by how much but only time will tell. I want to dedicate the rest of my life to being there for her and my family in a real sense and I'm not sure how. I didn't have a support system going through my HS years and psychosis other than hospitalizations and bouncing from therapist to therapist, so I don't really know what to do. As of rn, we bond over video games and I try to play with her when she can but I'm worried it's not enough. I'm worried that not being there when she was young and the times I was cruel and what I now see as abusive will prevent a bridge of trust for us. I'm worried she's closing herself of from the world and will end up like I did — isolated and vulnerable.
Is there anything I can do to be a better brother? A better support? I ask this sub specifically because not everyone can fill in some blanks for certain relationships dynamics. Some siblings don't get along and it's seen as normal but in our family there's no room or excuse for me to be anything but positive and uplifting and I see that now.
If anyone has made progress in their healing, what's externally has helped you? Whos helped you and how?
Thanks

2024.05.19 06:25 Dry-Illustrator5292 Venerable Minh Tue and the Practice from a Buddhist Perspective

A few years ago, I had the chance to learn about Venerable Minh Tue through the YouTube channel Nhan Ga Vlogs. The videos show the monk in a cave at Mount San (Nha Trang), near my home. In these videos, the Venerable does not preach or talk about himself. He only answers questions and shares his journey of practice honestly. What I am most interested in are his insights on practice and discipline. I realized that Venerable Minh Tue has read extensively and understands the Nikaya scriptures deeply, practicing according to the Buddha's teachings. This led me to conclude that he is a true monk.
Today, Venerable Minh Tue is known by many (I prefer not to use the word "famous" for a monastic) and has widespread influence, reaching beyond national borders. The story of Venerable Minh Tue has become hotter than ever, flooding social media with videos and images of him. This has sparked a variety of opinions, ranging from admiration and respect to criticism and contempt. Many paths of human experience!
Fortunately, those who think negatively about him are still a minority.
Venerable Minh Tue practices the ascetic path of Dhutanga. Some people look at his conduct and attire and criticize him as crazy, self-mortifying, lacking wisdom, and not following the Middle Way that the Buddha encouraged. However, these critics do not realize that Venerable Minh Tue is practicing according to the correct Dharma, following the teachings of the original scriptures. He has abandoned family life, living a pure and simple life, renouncing all attachments, and practicing minimalism and contentment. People confuse the ascetic practices of Dhutanga with the severe austerities the Buddha practiced during his six years of seeking enlightenment. Those severe practices involved extreme self-mortification, causing great physical pain (originating from Brahmanism). Thus, Dhutanga in a sense is a precursor to the Middle Way and still closely aligns with it.
Many argue that monastic life should prioritize wisdom over physical asceticism. However, they confuse worldly wisdom with Buddhist wisdom. Worldly wisdom is human cognitive ability, derived from genetics and education, whereas Buddhist wisdom is only revealed when a practitioner strictly adheres to precepts. Observance of precepts leads to concentration, and concentration leads to wisdom. Therefore, the Buddha said, "Where there is virtue, there is wisdom and vice versa."
The core of practicing Dhutanga is to end all defilements and impurities. This practice helps the practitioner guard the senses, not being influenced by circumstances, gradually eliminating greed, hatred, and delusion. That is why monastics eat only one meal a day (reducing greed for food), sleep sitting (reducing the desire for sleep, as lying down can lead to deep, excessive sleep), and wear three robes (actually one set, the minimum requirement, reducing attachment to clothing).
Some criticize why a Dhutanga practitioner does not live alone in the forest but wanders across the country. The answer is that finding forests in Vietnam today like in the Buddha's time is impossible. Venerable Minh Tue has also spent time in seclusion on Mount San. So why does he choose to walk across the country? He answers that it is to "train and maintain health." In a deeper understanding, he is practicing the true Dharma of the Tathagata. Walking helps him to be mindful of body, feelings, mind, and phenomena; living in hardship, experiencing suffering, and understanding the cause of suffering leads to the end of suffering, rather than hoping to escape suffering to find happiness.
On his journey, if he is tempted by material possessions, money, or beauty, it means that desire has arisen; if he feels troubled by the crowd, it means anger has arisen. Therefore, solitary retreat alone may not necessarily help control the mind when faced with worldly temptations.
Many people also question the social utility of his wanderings. If everyone did as he does, who would produce food? These questions are shortsighted and self-serving.
What have we done for society? Everyone contributes to society in varying degrees, and human values are not solely measured by material contributions but also by spiritual ones. Typically, what we do is visible and beneficial to ourselves and our families. In contrast, what Venerable Minh Tue has done for society is far more significant and evident:
If society could follow his example, it would be wonderful. Then, I believe, society would not only have food and clothing but also a more peaceful and happy life. However, few people can do what he does!
Some people question why he refers to himself as "con" (child) instead of "thầy" (teacher).
First, he has chosen the path of renunciation, no longer bound by monastic duties at a temple, and does not consider himself anyone's teacher to avoid influencing others and bureaucratic issues.
Second, the self-reference "thầy" among monks and laypeople today is merely a convention in communication. There is no binding requirement. In essence, it is a cultural practice in Vietnamese language, while in English, it is just "I-You," or in Chinese, "Wǒ 我 - Nǐ 你." Some high-ranking monks still refer to themselves as "tôi" (I) or their Dharma names when teaching. Venerable Minh Tue's use of "con" with everyone demonstrates his practice of humility, renouncing the ego, which is the spirit of selflessness.
Currently, wherever he goes, hundreds to thousands of people follow, including many YouTubers, TikTokers, and Facebookers. This has raised concerns about security and disruptions to his practice.
I believe we should not rush to blame or criticize those creating social media content. Let's see the positive side, for without them, how could the beautiful image of a true monk spread? In this era, spreading the Dharma and sharing good things are more effective with the support of media and social networks. How else would Vietnamese Buddhists know about the teachings of monks like Phap Hoa or Tinh Khong and other high-ranking monks?
Moreover, their gathering is also a test for Venerable Minh Tue to practice mind control. If he starts feeling important, central, or like a star due to attention and veneration, he immediately falls into ego clinging and arrogance. If he gets annoyed by the crowd, it means anger has arisen. These situations are ultimate tests on the path of precepts and mindfulness. Observing him, no matter how hard the walk, his face remains serene with a smile. Perhaps he has attained tranquility.
Some people express sympathy for him, tearfully seeing him bareheaded, barefoot, under the sun and rain. This emotional response is understandable but from a worldly perspective. Choosing the path of asceticism makes him feel internal joy, and these hardships help him approach enlightenment.
Some worry about him facing dangers from dark forces. Don't worry; choosing this path requires great courage. Didn't he say, "If I'm allowed to live, I'll continue to practice"? This shows fearlessness as he has thoroughly understood impermanence and selflessness. What we should care about is whether he has truly attained this mindset. If he has, Nirvana is not far away. Therefore, we should rejoice.
I predict that at some stage, after experiencing suffering and training body and mind, Venerable Minh Tue might retreat into seclusion to achieve enlightenment. Once precepts are fully observed, meditation is necessary to attain concentration.
Certainly, his influence has reduced the income of some fraudulent monks, who might even have to sell cars and land. Therefore, it is not surprising that efforts to defame and harm Venerable Minh Tue are intensifying. Initially, they fabricated stories of false monasticism with staged filming. They ridiculed his robe, calling it "plot selling land," or criticized his rice cooker as an unofficial alms bowl. But they fail to understand that he has reached a state of non-attachment, indifferent to shame or ridicule. Having chosen a renunciant life, living without family, sleeping in cemeteries, overcoming family ties is the greatest obstacle.
The meanest tactic they use is labeling him as an agent of foreign anti-government organizations, portraying him as a beggar monk to undermine Vietnamese Buddhism and the nation.
I must say, Vietnamese Buddhism is undermined by fraudulent monks, tolerated and supported. They exploit karma and reincarnation theories, distorting and frightening the ignorant with horrific afterlife scenarios. They continue exploiting donations as a way to resolve karmic debts, seeking blessings, and accumulating merit, the more money, the better, even encouraging devotees to donate entire houses to temples and live simply elsewhere. In short, just donate.
Therefore, the purification of fraudulent monks will be the revival of Vietnamese Buddhism.
Praising Venerable Minh Tue's practice does not mean devaluing other practices of true monks in the country. Each has different capacities and vows, so not everyone can be the same. Every individual is here to fulfill a unique mission.
If the standard of a monk is virtue, clearly, the one who practices surpasses the one who understands. Practicing Dhutanga is a great merit, rarely achieved. Therefore, praising and respecting virtue is right but not deifying or idolizing Venerable Minh Tuệ at this moment, as this would lead to wrong views and contradict the spirit of Buddhism.
To understand the significance of practicing Dhutanga, let me quote the Buddha's praise of Venerable Kasyapa's practice:
“Well done! Well done, Kasyapa! You have brought great benefit and saved innumerable beings, extending this to all the realms of gods and men. Why? Kasyapa, if this ascetic practice remains in the world, then my teachings will also remain long in the world. If my teachings remain in the world, then the path to the heavenly realm will increase, and the three evil paths will diminish. Likewise, the noble paths of Sotapanna, Sakadagami, Anagami, and the Three Vehicles will also remain in the world. Monks, you should practice as Kasyapa does.
Thus, monks, you should learn this.” (4)

2024.05.19 06:19 PowerStrongMusic Embracing Growth: Transforming Challenges into Strength

My approach to time is to explore more as others come along. You understand the pursuit of love transforms a person, shaping them with wisdom, allowing them to grow and prosper.
When humans realize they are in a difficult position, they have two choices: continue living in the drama or recognize the impact of their actions on their consumption habits.
Seeking knowledge about yourself brings advantages, although it can disrupt your current reality.
Now you see people filling their lives with love, trying to handle my way of breaking old patterns. Running through this path of self-awareness helps us stay in sync with our world.
This week, my improvements in work and communication have made a significant jump. Tasks that were once difficult are now manageable with effort and organization.
In my tarot practice, after watching some videos, I started listening to music and singing to find comfort. Recently, I've done something amazing for my chakras for the second time.
It's remarkable how aligning with our planet's energies can feel like a wild journey. My process of singing has brought new friends, help, and challenges, but it's improving each time I practice.
As we conclude this letter, remember that searching for understanding and love disrupts reality and prevents us from getting stuck in drama forever.
I no longer question my existence or how I spend my time. Balancing action and relaxation has brought clarity.
My workout routine three times a week has transformed my health. What used to be a strenuous task is now something my friends admire.
I invest a little time in updating my wardrobe. Although I don't spend much money, I now feel the need to visit more stores.
We need to keep pushing the limits of our abilities and grow in our geographical areas. Let's turn the drama of life into a source of strength and growth.

2024.05.19 05:42 Zealousideal_Luck711 MTG style resource mechanic

Hi all - longtime Star Wars card, mini, video gamer here and had a thought that I was thinking would make SWU a bit more fun and satisfying IMHO - for home and not organized play of course. I've played a fair amount of MTG over the years and have always wished for a Star Wars card game that had a more satisfying play experience. SWU is getting closer, but the resource mechanic just doesn't feel fluid to me. I get the whole design decision about not being flooded or starved, but to me that was part of the appeal. I'm thinking of creating some resource cards aligned to aspect that one could include in a deck and change the min. size to 60 cards. I think it would be epic to have resource cards with cool artwork of places throughout the Star Wars galaxy that would power ones deck. Anyone with me on this idea, or am I alone on this one?

2024.05.19 04:25 JohannGoethe Type: 𓆎 [I6], thing: crocodile 🐊 spine; carto-phono: /km/; meaning: [?]; significance: root type of 𓆎 + 𓅓 + 𓏏 + 𓊖 or /km/ + /m/ + /t/ = Kemet, the original name of Egypt?

Type: 𓆎 [I6], thing: crocodile 🐊 spine; carto-phono: /km/; meaning: [?]; significance: root type of 𓆎 + 𓅓 + 𓏏 + 𓊖 or /km/ + /m/ + /t/ = Kemet, the original name of Egypt?
Abstract
Study of type: 𓆎 [I6], which somehow is believed to be the ”main” or first type the Egyptians used to define their country?
Egypt Name?
Wiktionary entry on Kemet, thought to mean Egypt:
https://preview.redd.it/vbb6ne7gma1d1.jpg?width=1686&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8070de202f473f6c12931bcffdd5114fd9892ebd
Where:
  • 𓆎 [I6], thing: “crocodile 🐊 scales” [?], meaning: /km/ [?]
  • 𓅓 [G17], thing: “owl 🦉”, carto-phono: /m/
  • 𓏏 [X1], thing: “bread 🍞”, carto-phono: /t/
  • 𓊖 [O49], meaning: city 🌆 or cosmos birth location
Whence:
𓆎 + 𓅓 + 𓏏 + 𓊖
Or
/km/ + /m/ + /t/ = Kemet
Meaning, supposedly, “Egypt”, based on the so-called crocodile 🐊 spine 𓆎 [I6] type, which makes the /km/ phono, but for unknown reasons?
History
In 1850A (+105), plutarch said the Egyptians called their country the ‘chemia’ (Χημίαν), named after the black soil and black part of the eye:
Egypt, moreover, which has the blackest of soils, they call by the same name as the black portion of the eye 👁️ , ‘chemia’ (Χημίαν), and compare it to a heart.”
— Plutarch (1850A/+105), Isis and Osiris (§33)
Whence, in Greek:
Chemia (Χημίαν) = Egypt, place of the black soil
In 137A (1818), Young, in his decoding of the assumed Cleopatra (Κλεοπάτρα) cartouche, assigned the 𓆎 [I6] type to the /k/ phonetic, because it aligned with the letter K of the name Κ-LEOPATRA, and the L aligned with the lion 🦁, as follows:
https://preview.redd.it/x93xkmjkwa1d1.jpg?width=1061&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e01c56d0b709d6b22e4c72463fe761591e23e59f
Young, in his Collective Works (pg. 24), of the name Αιγυπτον (Aigypton) or Egypt in Coptic as follows:
Chmi (ⲬHⲘⲒ) {kʰēmi} = Egypt
In A2 (1957), Gardiner defined the 𓆎 [I6] as follows:
https://preview.redd.it/8306wfx9cb1d1.jpg?width=1875&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=91a02d0aa07e8a86bdd126bd7ca4edfb6329b29f
Where:
𓆎 𓅓 𓏏 𓊖 = “kmt” {carto-phono}, meaning: country of Egypt, Africa.
Thus we have:
Langauge
1. Chemia (Χημίαν) Egypt Greek Plutarch
2. Chmi (ⲬHⲘⲒ) {kʰēmi} Egypt Coptic Young
3. Κ-λεοπάτρα (C-leopatra) Carto-phonetics Young
4. 𓆎 𓅓 𓏏 𓊖 (K-mt) Egypt? Guessed?
Wherein 𓆎 [I6] became a guessed as a morph of X (ch) + K (C), to make the /km/ phono in some blurry way?
Discussion
We also note the following, namely that the actual stone version of 𓆎 [I6] type, as Gardiner drew it, and ASCII character made, does not even look like the 10-layered or 11-layered thing, shown on the Cleopatra cartouche, which makes the /k/ phono, according to Young, i.e there are no spiked “spines” or whatever things shown:
https://preview.redd.it/ft8yjwjv0b1d1.jpg?width=1037&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=02360356a40a9a723e153e332f9057f0b06db837
Now, as it has already been semi-proved that Young’s 𓂋 [D21], thing: “mouth 👄”, assignment of the / phonetic is incorrect, because:
  1. The TombUJ number tag 100 ram head 𓍢 [V1] type is the correct / phonetic, as this matches with the Greek rho (Ρ, ρ), which also is letter R
  2. The Chinese mouth symbol 口 does not make the / phonetic, but rather is a symbol for ALL phonetics,
It would therefore seem to be probable to assert that 𓆎 [I6] type does NOT make the /k/ phonetic, nor is even likely a crocodile 🐊 anything? The Egyptians, e.g., were known to mummy crocodiles 🐊, not cut them into this: 𓆎 [I6] shape? Nor does the shape shown in stone above look like crocodile scales:
https://preview.redd.it/gru3zkhaza1d1.jpg?width=1436&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e8acbac256d2e124c9028f4751e959444c4128fd
In A63 (2018), Asar Imhotep, in his "The Etymology of the word Km.t 'kemet': A Critical Reexamination of the Diop-Obenga Hypothesis", talked for 15-min about how 𓆎 𓅓 𓏏 means “black land”, and NOT black people, because it has a land determinative:
  • 𓆎 𓅓 𓏏 + 𓈇 [N23] = KMT {𓆎 𓅓 𓏏} + irrigation canal
  • 𓆎 𓅓 𓏏 + 𓈘 [N36] = KMT {𓆎 𓅓 𓏏} + canal
  • 𓆎 𓅓 𓏏 + 𓊖 [O49] = KMT {𓆎 𓅓 𓏏} + [add]
Flood levels?
One thing that comes to mind is that the I6 is a symbol of the rising 150-day flood waters, as shown below, overlaid on this image:
https://preview.redd.it/7e51317rtb1d1.jpg?width=1298&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4bad91255babd2bc21f058fe8cdfbf9eb8f4325
This rising flood 💦 waters icon meaning of I6, would seem to make more sense, as the flood waters are so-called “life blood” of the Egyptian culture, as the flood waters bring the black soil from the Ethiopian mountains, which allowed for fresh nitrogen-rich soil each year, as compared to other places on the earth, wherein fertilizer or manure needs to be added to the soil, or crop rotation used.
Other
On O49, Imhotep says:
”The N23 𓈇 is an irrigated land classifier. The N36 𓈘 is a canal. And then the O49 𓊖 determinative is the more popular one. Everyone interprets this as the ’cross-roads‘, but that is not the case, it actually just another variation of irrigated land.”
— Asar Imhotep (A63/2018), "The Etymology of the word Km.t (Kemet)” (6:50-7:15)
This is funny! We sure would like to see a photo of this 𓊖-shaped irrigated land? Video clip (6:15-7:28) below:
https://preview.redd.it/ercapqq4pa1d1.jpg?width=1279&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5509644e97d23d6b4a78bae7098e132177d5f496
In A69 (2024), the following YouTuber defines 𓆎 [I6] wood 🪵 as a piece of black char-coaled wood:
“The charcoaled 𓆎 [I6] wood 🪵 or crocodile 🐊 spine = /k-m/ phonetic, and means black and 𓆎 (k) 𓅓 (m) 𓏏 (t) 𓊖 = km-m-t (Kemet), with 𓊖 as the city determinative, means: black 👨🏿populace.”
— Anon (A69/2024), “Let’s Settle This: The Kemet debate, Part One” (6:22-; 16:42-): Apr 20
We went from:
  1. Black soil Plutarch (1850/+105)
  2. Black pupil of eye 👁️ Plutarch (1850/+105)
  3. Black people 👨🏿
  4. Black charcoaled wood 🪵
This is example translation gone wrong.
Notes
  1. Started from: here.
  2. This is another example where we see that the entire program of CartoPhonetics based status quo Egyptology is built on a false foundation; which we will have to remedy via an EAN based NeoEgypto model.

Losing My Mind Over Horizontal Lines on Ender 5 Plus Post Mercury One Mod
https://preview.redd.it/6yfu6hsyma1d1.jpg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=04962d794a9f137b24736cfa0504acfd1931d028
Printer Setup:
  • Model: Ender 5 Plus
  • Modifications: Mercury One with Stealthburner
  • Controller Board: Manta M5P with CANbus
Background: I bought an Ender 5 Plus from Facebook Marketplace to transform it into a Mercury One after watching a video by MandicReally. Initially, I wanted to build a Voron 2.4, but it was out of my budget. Unfortunately, after the modifications, I haven't been able to achieve a good print quality. I'm consistently getting horizontal lines at regular intervals.
Steps Taken So Far:
  1. Changed all three linear rails.
  2. Dismantled and reassembled the entire system, ensuring the pulleys are correctly aligned.
  3. Replaced the towers for the XY motors.
  4. Swapped out the entire print head, transitioning from a Stealthburner to an EVA 2.4 with BMG.
  5. Tested with two different hotends:
    • Haldis 3D Red Lizard K1 HF High Temperature
    • 3D Red Lizard K1 V6 Hotend Bi-Metal
  6. Tried various slicers, including Cura and Orca.
  7. Tried three different filaments with various temperature settings.
  8. Adjusted the belt tension to various levels, from very tight to normal.
  9. Used Permatex White Lithium Grease (44ml Tube) for the linear rails.
Additional Details:
  • Filament: Ender PLA printed at temperatures ranging from 185°C to 210°C with a bed temperature of 60°C.
  • Print Speed: Default speeds in Cura and Orca (slow).
  • Direct Drive: I haven't adjusted this; it's set to the default in the slicers.
Note:
  • Don't mind the wiring, I switched from a Stealthburner with CANbus to an EVA for testing.
Issue Description: Despite these efforts, I'm still facing persistent issues with horizontal lines on my prints. Everything I try results in the same problem with the same outcome.
Request for Help: I'm looking for advice on what I might be missing or any additional steps I should try. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Help putting the washer back together
Okay so I have a kenmore elite washer that I took the agitator off to clean and I can't get the agitator to line back up and worried it's starting to stripe. The plastic teeth aren't lining up with the metal gear. Any ideas or tips on how to get it back on properly? What am I missing? Any YouTube videos that might help with tips? Picture 1 the metal gear Picture 2 the underside of the agitator Picture 3 how it should be once it is aligned and connected to the gear.
