I wonder how many people have been inspired by the Paramount executives to take up sailing…

It’s not just expensive, it also doesnt work unlesss almost all energy used world wide is carbon neutral. This is because carbon removal is the reverse of a reaction used to gain energy, so it needs higher input energy than was gained by the power plant.

Audio Engineer here. Not sure Ardour can open video, but it’s a capable DAW and open source. Reaper is closed source but it can open (and even render) pretty much any video format. To actually seperate a single voice, you do need additional plugins though, no matter which DAW you’re using.
I think iZotope RX could do it, but it is fairly expensive. I haven’t seen any open source audio tools that can do this at all. It is pretty much guaranteed to require some kind of machine learning, as parametrically seperating by EQ or phase won’t work if you have only one source signal (even with two or more microphones, it would be really, really hard).
A very good spectral editor might technically work, it would however take several days of manually deleting select frequencies on an almost single sample level and still sound bad, especially if the noise is nearly the same level as the signal.
Yes, but they don’t have finance or business degrees.
My engineering friends and me propose that physicists should be referred to as theoretical engineers.

It could change the pH of the oceans, making it harder for anything to live there. Plus, it might not store the CO2 for longer than 1000 years, which doesnt really solve the issue (I have a source for that somewhere, I think it was the IPCC).

How did he get performance based bonuses when his company isn’t profitable?
- WastedJobe@feddit.detoNo Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Where are the good political songs?12·1 year ago
This might not be everyones cup of tea, but metal and hardcore are full of protest music. Heaven Shall Burn for example is lyricly anti-fascist and environmentalist (live video because that show is fucking legendary).

Isn’t arithmetic a class in Hogwarts and just a fancy word for maths (not a native speaker)? I think only Hermione takes it though and it’s only mentioned in the books.

Do we, like, have the exact same taste in music? Everything you post is absolute gold
I almost always hear of Master or Justice as their best album, and both are equally valid imo. Now Black Album, THAT would be controversial.
If they released Kill em All today, I think it would be considered Metal because it wouldn’t really fit anywhere else. Their newer stuff is already not really considered Metal in elitist circles though, is it?

Aritificial Gravity is probably part of the system that prevents everyone from going splat against the window Maneo style when they leave warp. Without inertial dampening you couldn’t move ships basically at all, so these systems are probably passive.
