why not try an exotic alternative? /ɣif/ (that's the voiced velar fricative symbol btw, not the letter "Y") has something for everyone

the no-nonsense logic of "the g is hard because it stands for graphics, which has a hard g"

By the same logic, the g in gmail is hard because it stands for Google

except Gmail™ is a trademark with a unique pronunciation determined by an organization with legally enforced authority over said trademark.

if gif was a trademarked name you'd have an argument

e: lol, chrome replaces the actual trademark character with a graphic emoji version that's black and thus invisible on the page, what the gently caress

ee: lol, it's actually a new windows 10 update doing the replacing. gently caress me.

eee: i have been informed that it's specifically a forums thing which makes more sense and is still infuriating

mine fizzles out somewhere around ~20100 and I'm 28 and go loud concerts, listen to loud music and play the drums all the time

I need it louder to hear the frequencies under 20 than the ones over 15,000 though???

that might be as much your speakers as your ears

it's funny cranking it to 20khz and watching the cat's ears perk up
