It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

They definitely didn't crank it up because his voice is so frail he's barely audible. Nope, it's a conspiracy to make him look bad.

Yes the equalizer made him alter his words and muddy his memory and capacities. biden-supervised

The sneaky Russians pointed a low pass filter at bidens brain!

This is the insane shit that Chuds pull trying to say something is fake lmao

Blue MAGA is indistinguishable from MAGA

Biden's mic was EQed to pick up as much low end and high end ambient noise as possible.

No. The mic is EQed that way so you can actually hear the low and high parts of his voice. The human ear is most sensitive to the mid range as it amplifies those frequencies, and the majority of our voice also lies in the midrange. You can see this if you look at the frequency response curve of headphones, the midrange is always boosted to replicate what our ear does, it's called pinna gain. The Harman target is a good example of this. If Biden's mic was EQed flat, you wouldn't be able to hear the low or high parts of his voice. If Biden sounds like an old man, it's because he is one.

But have you considered I'm an audiophile, and it's my entire identity, which I have now found a noble application for outside of being an annoying prick to friends and family?

Should I buy Sennheiser or Bang and Olufsen workout earbuds

[–] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

For workout earbuds I'd just get the cheapest wireless/Bluetooth pair with some water/sweat resistance. Sound quality doesn't really matter when working out, and wireless makes sense for this.

Thanks! I think I will get the Shokz bone conduction on Prime Day.

[–] copandballtorture@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I used aftershokz conduction for workouts for a while, but they were never loud enough for me, so I switched to an in-ear and am happier except one ear piece is always getting loose in my ear while working out

[–] TemutheeChallahmet@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

Yeah I was hoping to get around the looseness and sweat pooling

[–] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago

I've never tried bone conduction headphones, but it sounds awesome lol. Enjoy it

The vast right-wing conspiracy shat in my pants

2024 is the year bluemaga reaches its peak. Indistinguishable from redmaga.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 15 points 11 months ago

Biden's mics sound like that A LOT, and I'm pretty sure it's because his speaking voice is too soft for the microphone to pick up with normal settings.

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 14 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Everyone is talking about the audio but it looks like they messed with Biden's character creation menu.

Slid down the Biden slider

Slid up the Trump slider

And slid up the Pence slider.

This level of cope is giving pim tool

[–] Barx@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

This seems plausible but it'd probably be there to help Biden when he trails off into quiet mumbles

[–] mechwarrior2@hexbear.net 9 points 11 months ago

morshupls he was eq'd

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 8 points 11 months ago

EQ'd audio? Everquested? Dang Joe maybe you'd be less sleepy if you'd lay off the level grind. The end game content can wait until after November

[–] Black_Mald_Futures@hexbear.net 8 points 11 months ago

Surprised they don't just say it's all deep fakes
