Are the ads in the room with us right now?

Edit: I thought it was obvious that this was a joke, my mistake.

If you’re wanting to practice soldering, and build a small, cheap project at the same time, I’d recommend cheap project kits from Aliexpress (there are probably equivalents on Amazon). Do projects that are through hole soldering first, before attempting SMD components.

There are plenty to choose from and they’re cheap, so if it doesn’t work then it doesn’t matter much.

• LED Christmas Trees
• Digital Clocks
• Bluetooth speaker - the SMD components are done for you.
• FM Radio Kits
• LED Sound Spectrum Display - Lots of practice with this one

There will be plenty of Youtube videos of people putting these things together if you want to know more.

Have fun!

I understand where you’re coming from: If natural dialogue is preferred for a creative work, then having laughter audio is inappropriate.

I disagree that canned laughter and live audience laughter are equivalent.

With live audience reactions it’s like watching a theatre presentation, you get to be part of the crowd. We get a chance to laugh at the jokes at a natural pace (allowing for pauses so we don’t miss the next joke) that the audience would set, and their reactions are modulated organically.

Canned laughter doesn’t do this, it doesn’t set a natural pace. It is calculated by an audio engineer, and the laughter will be an unnatural reaction to the joke presented.

It’s the difference between a genuine and forced smile. We can naturally sense something is off. A live audience reaction is superior to canned laughter in most cases.

That being said, some shows don’t need laughter audio to be enjoyable.

The IT Crowd didn’t use canned laugh tracks, They recorded audio of audience responses.

They pay out of initial capital investment and leveraging.

To add to this: take notice of how much they are sharing back. If all they are saying are acknowledgements (e.g “Yeah”, “of course”, “I hear that”, “wow, that’s crazy”) then they aren’t really with you in the conversation. The dialogue has become a monologue.

How does pirating make a corporation broke? Making a copy doesn’t steal money.

Edit: We can’t pirate a company into bankruptcy.

“Depeche mode”?

OOTL: Oh, it’s a band.

Petting a dog is one of the most relaxing things you can do.

I heard if you say “Tux” three times while staring into a mirror your daily driver turns up dual booted.

Unfortunately that is how the human body works. Our sleep/wake cycle can only naturally drift by about an hour a day. It isn’t entirely dependent on how you feel.

Exactly.

“Hey, Disney. Can I tell you to suck my dick?”

“Will it make me money?”

“Yes, lots of money.”

“Will I have to actually change my practices in a meaningful way?”

“No”

“Lets do it. Now will you excuse me, I have legal battles to fight with the poors.”

Wake me up when the fines overshadow the profits.

Using Twitter was the mistake.

Hey! That’s “Mr Moron” to you.

Is it in the OP? I can’t see it.

Atheism killed God. Who will wipe this blood off us?
