@ziphi and then you get stuff like Strong One (Masked Man) from Mother 3, which is just Very What

@ziphi it's a really fucking weird time signature though
-F

@ziphi (no, looked it up, it's 23/16, or more sensibly, (3+3+3+4+3+3+4)/16)
-F

@ziphi (that one's not 5/4 though, don't know any 5/4 examples that work like that. iwrc ganondorf battle is 17/8?)
-F

@ziphi It's a neat rhythm that works really well for certain things (which is true of most rhythms honestly but this one's at least more interesting than your basic 4/4 back-beat rhythm)

I like when weird time signatures are used to make music feel unbalanced--this one is unbalanced in a driving-forward sort of way, but it's also common to use for more of an unsteady or taken-aback or just overwhelming sort of mood, like say the oot ganondorf battle music
-F

@ziphi it turns it into a clave rhythm, and then almost uses that as a pseudo-4/4 but with the first two beats longer than the last two?
-F

@ziphi when we think 5/4, for some reason Don't Be Afraid always comes to mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dSxUoBjUPw

kinda feel like this one uses the odd time signature a bit differently than a lot of 5/4 music does, though

@Cauda yeah i know what it stands for but why

we had at least two perfectly serviceable words already and i have an irrational and entirely unfounded dislike of this new word (i am not being entirely serious here, but i do actually dislike it)
-F

when and why and how did the word "avatar" or "icon" turn into "pfp"

@starkatt just to fuck with people, insist on calling them the a, α, and ɐ axes

@monsterblue @judasiscariot666 foxes are sort of dogs but not!

@socks clearly all architecture would have to consider safe grounding points at all times

metal fibers woven into carpets, all doorknobs grounded through 1M resistors, that sort of thing
-F

@gardevoir @kat yeah seconding this, i was just thinking the exact same
-F

@LexYeen looking it up, this is what i was thinking of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gizmondo

-F

@LexYeen wait, gizmodo? wasn't that one of those dozen or so utterly forgettable handheld game consoles from the 00s that completely failed?

@terrana A pity, but hey, free battery!

@kat @starkatt @LexYeen no i'm just too tired to understand people, i'm going to go to bed now i think

@kat @starkatt @LexYeen power is just voltage times current
