I mostly listen to death-doom rather than strict death metal, but there's a fair bit of that out there. My two faves in the genre:
Draconian has clean female vocals alongside growled male.
Swallow the Sun has a wide range of vocal styles, but getting increasingly cleaner pretty much every album (along with clean female vocals on a lot of tracks).
Again, this is death-doom so a lot of the stuff will be a little slower-tempo than straight death.
Except it's actually the best of both worlds for the rich - as far as I know, a lot of these companies are publicly traded AND receive public funding.
Tell Rizzo he's one of the cutest pups I've ever seen.
That makes sense. I also totally get you on the last point. As soon as I manage to own a house, the yard is getting planted with local flora, fruit bushes, and a vegetable garden.
I think for some people it's like a form of meditation, especially for those with a big lawn and a riding mower. I don't personally get it, but that's the vibe these guys give off.
I'd start by deciding what your goals are, so you know what to work towards in terms of hardware, software, and processes. Once you've got some sort of an idea, explore ways to accomplish it and post your questions in this community. It can be super overwhelming to get started, but the research and problem-solving is half the fun.
I would legitimately love to see this. Sounds like a bit of a Forest Gump vibe, and your choice of Nicolas Cage feels perfect for this role.
Thanks for the reminder. Literally just booked mine (along with a COVID booster) after seeing this.
I'm always going on about the dangers of microplastics to anyone who will listen but I'm doubtful that "[putting] humanity on notice" will have any effect at all. If our global response to the existential threat of climate change is any indication, we may as well start taking bets on which will kill us first.
To make a sizeable dent in microplastics in our environment we'll have to rethink the entire concept of rubber tires, and that's gonna be a non-starter with the monied interests and their propaganda machines. Also, synthetic clothing is gonna be a big one. Getting rid of plastic straws and shopping bags infuriated so many people in my country, so that's gonna be crazy when people find out they'll have to do without stretchy clothing. (And the straw/bag thing was essentially a token effort given the vastly higher volumes of single-use plastic across the supply chain).
I don't mean to be a doomer about this - it's very important that scientists bring this to light if we want to have any hope of bettering our world. It's just frustrating feeling like I've been shouting into a void regarding this issue, even to those in my personal life.
I wish the article went into some detail about how the hell a 72-year-old fought in a war. I know people can be in good shape at that age, but I wouldn't think they'd be in voluntarily joining a war shape.
Also, how did he end up in the custody of Russia? Captured, or just strolled into Moscow one day with his big balls clanging at each step.
I start to get weak and fussy if it's 12:30 pm and I haven't had lunch. Assuming I get lost in the woods after breakfast that means I have a good 3-4 hours to find a settlement before I drop dead of being a little bitch.
Mathematically it works out to half the cancer type 2 diabetes and stroke.
Edit: Fixed the disease
Pros: price
Cons: the watch doesn't work and now you have lead poisoning
I can smell this comment, and now I have even more microplastic in my blood.
I have no idea about the site itself, but having the domain registration showing as private isn't necessarily a red flag in itself. I do it myself to avoid spam, and it's a free service offered by many registrars.
As someone else commented, however, if it feels fishy you're probably correct.
That's fair. I'm certainly not against the concept of drinks with sugar alternatives, but for whatever reason the only one I actually enjoy is Fresca.
Classic Lemmy user, bringing not one but two laptops to a live show.
I just wanted to thank Tmpod for creating this community. I was complaining about a general lack of places for episode discussions on the Fediverse, and Tmpod mentioned thinking about starting a community for The Boys. Given that I'm also a fan of the show, I'm very happy to have a place to share thoughts on the episodes of this new season.
I'm now prioritizing watching the currently-released episodes of Season 4 asap so I can help get this party started.
Tmpod is a great example of what makes the Fediverse so great!
Inspired by another recent synthwave post here, I thought I'd share a different aspect of the genre. Whereas a lot of synthwave has a dystopian John Carpenter feel to it (which I think is great!), tons of groups sit on the other thematic side of 80s throwback, having a more upbeat John Hughes movie kinda sound.
These Australian dudes rarely release new music but everything they touch seems to end up perfect. If you like poppy 80s sounds, incredible vocals, and campy SciFi you'll probably love this. They've developed a whole SciFi universe to go along with their music and bill themselves as, "The Interstellar Synthwave Band."
I hope this isn't an inappropriate question to pose here.
If all goes well I'll be a first-time dad this summer and I want to do my research. I've done some general searching online for answers to specific questions, but I'd love two or three more comprehensive resources. You know, the kind of thing to give me answers to questions I hadn't even considered.
I spent some time searching for pregnancy books oriented to men, thinking it could give me some useful insight into being an ideal partner during the process. At the same time, I'm hoping it'll give me a good general idea of what to expect. The results of my search were rather disappointing. It seems like the majority of books of that nature seem overly bro-ey and just generally too macho for me. I found titles legit along the lines of "Baby Hacks EVERY Man Must Know." Ok, not for me ...
A few popped up that on the surface seemed more promising, but when I looked into them I got wary. One seemed to be sponsored by some men's parenting social media site and the other was written by a self-professed influencer. Also not for me. (I'm on Lemmy because I can't stand influencer-culture.)
I finally settled on a book that seemed a little more my speed in terms of attitude, but with very little substance. It's basically 150 pages of, "Hey, you should be nice to your wife." OK. That's already my standard operating procedure, so we're good there.
I feel like what I want has to be out there. I'm just looking for a resource to tell me all of the little things. You know, stuff like signs to watch out for regarding potential dangers during the pregnancy, what the hell I'm supposed to do while my wife is giving birth, how to avoid falling down the stairs with my new baby, etc.
Anyway ... Do any of ya'll have any hidden gems to recommend? My wife and I are elder millenials so we've got some life experience under our belts. As it probably matters for the topic of parenting, we're quite progressive but don't buy into anything too woo-woo (we're big believers in science).
