the horrible truth about sm58 and sm57 is that they're basically the same mic, the only difference being the grille design both are cool though

I love how it’s been well over a year of remote interviews and people still manage to use the worst mic and camera setups possible. Like professionals! I dunno how much that mic is but drat spend money people!

Also the Behringer SL 75C is almost identical to the SM57 at a quarter of the price. Get yourself an inexpensive preamp (preferably one that has a couple EQ knobs) and an SL75C and a cheap boom and pop filter off amazon and boom, instant radio voice.

sm57 is probably the best affordable multipurpose mic in the world. a few of them + good room sound is all you need

You've seen your last "stuck post," but you didn't realize it was your last oneastral posted:we can pretty conclusively say that the implemented-a-few-months-back fix for the years-outstanding "there is a 'stuck' post that needs a new post to 'free' it" issue was successful. The problem turned out to be that the relevant cache was being cleared before the database itself was updated, creating a race condition where, if someone opened the thread between the time the cache was cleared and the database was updated, it would load the old data into the cache and you would not see the new post. The fix was merely to adjust the order of operations. Now, the only time you should ever see a 'stuck' post is if Jeffrey or I accidentally make a post while force-disabling the cache (meaning said cache does not get updated to show the new post).

the department who teach media production tried showing us a video on how much of a difference a proper mic had over our laptop mic when we went into lockdown, but no way in hell was I going to spend money on all of that stuff when the pupils could hear me just fine without

PiCroft posted:Much appreciated! It’s such a shame, I wish there was the equivalent of lparchive for goldmine threads so we don’t lose so much of the content. RFC2324 posted:Serious question about that: does the LoC archive have the pics? The thread includes a bunch of tools for archiving stuff from SA, including grabbing the images - there's one tool in particular made by fletcher that's incredibly good, as it archives the complete threads as a whole page, with inlining of all the images that can be saved. So if someone wanted to go make a full and complete archive of SA, including all of the restored images from the WaffleImages archive, the building blocks for it are there. I imagine it'd require a lot of diskspace, though - and that's saying something, from the sad sack who has the most posts in the digital packrats thread over in SHSC  sweet geek swag posted:Just an update, I got my Little Caesars today, and it was pretty decent.

It is very funny to me that Little Caesars was not able to use their "pizza! pizza!" slogan in Canada, since a business by that name already existed, so they went with the perfectly logical and just as catchy phrase, "two pizzas!"

TheMightyBoops posted:There’s a Midwestern (maybe it’s everywhere) chain of pizza places called Marcos that are commonly connected to Family Video’s out here and it’s legit the best pizza in my town. The family video here closed down at the start of the pandemic though, so when you go pick up a pizza it’s this tiny walk in pizza place connected to a giant empty Family Video. This is correct, it costs a negligible amount more than pizza hut or domino's, but you can customize the hell out of sauce, toppings, crust options/seasonings and bake time.
