I hate the fact that they made 'The Descent 2'. Totally (and unnecessarily) killed the ambiguous ending of the original.

I seriously doubt that it would count as 'shittty', but it wasn't very well received and is not widely known either, for me rather a kind of comfort movie I'll defend till the edges of the earth: the Cohen brothers' 'A Serious Man'

Yea. That is THE one reason why I'd never touch GrapheneOS as long as it only runs on Pixel hardware.

I don't see LibreCMC (https://librecmc.org/) mentioned anywhere in this thread, so correct that.

Unlike Open WRT, LibreCMC is recognised by GNU to be a fully free Linux distribution, and you still get the time-honoured LuCi web administration interface.

LibreCMC runs on much fewer devices as OpenWRT, which can be a feature for those who are overwhelmed by the length of OpenWRT's list.

Not to be an a*hole but...can you drop the 'teen' part of the title ? I'm pretty sure it makes other people as uncomfortable as me...

Does noise from different nearby sources 'add up'? Or do the different sources cancel each other out? In any case, please provide a formula and an example (lemmy.wtf)
 

The prequel to the 'A Quiet Place' saga got me thinking.

spoiler alert!

There is a scene in which many humans march towards a safety point. Each individual human would have been relatively quiet, but because there are a lot of them (potentially hundreds), they end up being, as a whole, loud enough to alert the monsters so they get all killed.

This would suggest that many sources of noise which are near to each other and generate more or less the same amount of noise end up adding up so that the end result in dB is more or less the sum of the individual dB levels.

But then again, it's fiction.

Back to reality, I work in a room full of different servers which have also very different levels of noise. I have noticed that from my standpoint, the noise of the quietest server seems to disappear whenever the loudest is running, so it kind of does blow my mind how our perception of noise works...

What is the authoritative source of information for learning how to run an instance of peertube and how difficult is it for a moderately skilled sysadmin to do so?
