Yeah the only change here is room for plausible deniability. There will still be regular meetings between the companies, just not in the “board room”. As if that matters.

Ok bud.

Were you yourself ignorant to this?

Yes dude, piss bottles in the warehouse are a meme at this point. Working conditions in the warehouses have been making headlines since people died due to overheating way back in 2013.

Idk what point you’re trying to make. Are you saying we need to make signs for how Amazon abuses it’s employees?

I don’t care if he does or does not, the point is Amazon’s ruthless exploitation of the working class is not an unknown fact.

Ignorance is not an excuse.

No pass granted. Amazon is currently hiring their anti-union lawyers as direct warehouse managers to fight the unionization efforts at KCVG Airhub. There is no excuse in 2024 to take a gig from this company and not understand who you are getting in bed with.

Support KCVGs union effort! They are the companies largest airhub and function as a critical choke point in their supply lines. A union win would be a huge success for unionization across all warehouses at Amazon.

non-walkable city.

If the city is built ass backwards it would be a better investment to address that than start mining resources on the moon. Idk that’s just me though.

It’s a joke.

Nightclubs are a space that preditors are active in and that skews the perception. It’s absolutely best practice to hold your drink, that doesn’t mean the chances of a random man in the forest who is going to be a threat is high. How many people just don’t enjoy nightclubs?

You’re making alot of assumptions about the people disagreeing. My co-parent has been talking about this bear tiktok since it first showed up, how disappointed she has been with friends saying they would pick a bear, how harmful the discussion revolving around it is to young men, how 4th wave feminism leans more to reactionary politics instead of building towards material change. She is a socialist political organizer and every single woman in her party is pretty demoralized by this whole thing as it says alot about the publics political consciousness. If half the population more than half the population judging by the men in this thread agreeing to pick the bear, see strangers as a dangerous other, where does that leave us to join together to make meaningful change in society?

Having lemmy be my only form of social media this is my first time encountering the bear discussion and I completely understand her frustration now.

You misunderstand me if you feel I am arguing against the data.

I don’t want to get in the weeds here, at least once in the last 12 months is not regularly, that’s my point on your misrepentation. Does it happen too much, absolutely, does the study present enough data to say it’s happening regularly, no.

Again when talking about actual threats to women it is not strangers but men already in their circle, yet that is not what the bear discussion revolves around.

Please answer: Why do you think the actual threat doesn’t shape public consciousness the same way perceived threats do?

Where like 60% of women get harassed regularly

That’s not what the linked study says: In June 2021, the Opinions and Lifestyle Survey (OPN) showed that 28% of women and 16% of men had experienced at least one form of harassment in the previous 12 months. Of adults aged 16 to 34 years, 58% of women had experienced harassment, compared with 24% of men (Figure 4).

And don’t get me wrong, I am not here to justify harassment of anyone, but you’re grossly misrepresenting the study right now. Perceptions are absolutely influenced by experience of harassment but the actual threat to a woman is not random men on the street, it’s a man that has power over her or within her circle of trust. That could be a boss, a husband or relative.

However that reality is not what is shaping public perception, I would ask you why do you think that is? It’s a very important part of this bear conversation that is completely lost on everyone.

Those assaults aren’t from strangers is the piece of information omitted, it’s men in their family or inner circle abusing power or taking advantage of trust. The perception that all men are a threat is seriously damaging our youth and in fact creating a larger issue as it radicalizes them into ideologies that don’t value others as a reactionary turn to the way they feel treated.

This shit is bad and you should feel bad for propagating it.

This whole conversation is the equivalent to stranger danger of the 80s, it is shocking how far the publics social awareness is. Just like stranger danger it enphasizes fear over rational truth, and encourages isolation over community. The truth of the matter is that some random man isn’t a bigger threat to you than a random bear, when looking at statistics and physical threat to women it’s domestic violence.

This bear shit is some whack ass 4th wave feminism that completely lacks any kind of internal self criticism. The public conversation surrounding it provides no purpose than to feed into incel radicalization of young men feeling the strains of alienation under capitalism.

Serial killer logic.

That’s awesome!

I learned DAWs with ProTools back around 2006 in college. Dropped out because I didn’t want to enter a competitive trade where my best opportunities were moving out of state.

Got sucked into another industry and haven’t touched much audio for the past decade. Getting back into it now and started on Audacity but the 2021 buyout had me confused where to land with the Tenacity split. the good/bad of open source I suppose but as a user being in the middle of a split was frustrating and detracting from recording. Finding out about Reaper and talking to people leaving ProTools behind even within the industry was just what I needed when I needed it.

My daughter (11yo) is now getting into DAWs as her current goal is to score an internship at KEXP, being able to share with her all the stuff I learned in school has been so much fun.

Audacity is a great learning tool for intro absolutely! When you’re just dipping your toes into recording and editing, free and $60 is a huge difference.

I feel like users that are going to be using any of the features of this plug-in, they’re probably at the point that going to Reaper makes sense.

Audacity just doesn’t seem worth the trouble after discovering Reaper and how powerful it is for only $60.
