It's not just Autotune - how singers cheat today(Pop Theory)

Sagemind says...

I was with him for the first part.
And it's not that I can't take him seriously because of his hair - I found it very distracting to take singing critique from a Bieber look-alike...
He lost me when he says, "Even though your favorite artists probably cheats a bit in the studio, try to remember that tracks that you love by them might not have existed without this technology speeding up their workflow."

First, I think people like T-pain, Kanye, and Drake are most of what is wrong with the music industry today. So they definitely are NOT my favorite artists. Honestly, I refuse to call them artists. Artists hone their skills through tireless hours, years and dedication. Something these people don't do. (Hence the need for Autotune)

His point is exactly the point. Without Auto-tune, we wouldn't have these songs because they are utter garbage. It's Auto-tune that is the star, not the personas "behind the curtain."

And also, there is no fast track to learning skills. Yes, as he states, "speeding up their workflow" is just that. Workflow. This means it helps them produce tons of this crap without ever improving their skills, because they don't need to. They just need to rapidly produce song after song, while waiting for the one that is the most catchy to stick in people's minds. Then the conglomerate of industry leaches will pick it it up in hopes they all generate a few bucks from it. Meaning, they get radio play for producing crap song, after crap song.

Sorry to rant here, but pick up an instrument, learn to play. Learn how to sing, learn to hit a note. Entrance us with your skills and abilities. Seduce us with abilities that impress us. Gain our respect with your talents.

The guy in this video is just as fake as a Bieber look-alike, and while he starts to point out that they are3 cheating, he ends by enabling them showing us how great Lois's recorded voice sounds like once Frankensteined. This is not okay.

Note: I'm posting this comment to the YouTube video as well

Honda Riding Assist - CES 2017

Actually... that's a great idea. Why not?

I've never considered this angle, but it is kind of genius. If self driving cars are safe enough to carry a person, why not solo? Go the to grocery store website, order your milk. There are three options. Pickup, Delivery, or Auto-Pickup. If you registered your self driving car with the service, you can click a button to confirm, "Send car for pickup."

Wow... I might live to see that.

Now you can send it to the store and get milk while you are posting comments on the sift.

The Sinister Reason Weed is Illegal

entr0py says...

One thing they didn't mention that I'm really not convinced about is how impairing weed is, for how long, and how much it contributes to auto accidents. In recent years there's been a big spike in the proportion of drivers involved in fatal accidents who tested positive for marijuana :

https://www.merryjane.com/news/weed-related-car-accidents-increase-raising-more-questions-about-legal-limit

Of course that doesn't mean it caused the accidents, if people are just smoking twice as much nowadays, even a random sample would show a big increase. But it seems like the research on this is lacking. Does anyone know of any government that has science based guidelines for a sensible blood-pot content limit?

Oh yeah, if there's a backup then dead will auto replace.

If the backup is dead too you might need to repeat.

*backup=[] can now take a url, at least for a url you could paste into the video submit box (it does roughly the equivalent of pasting the url into the submit box, hitting validate, and then putting in that embed as the backup).

Huh... So videosift videos that are declared dead can auto replace embed codes if they are declared dead. Good to know!

BMW Concept Bike

eric3579 says...

So i'm obsessing on the piece of electronics @1:18. Id like to figure out exactly what it is model wise. It has Akai VW meters and directional play arrows. I have to assume that it's an Akai cassette deck with auto reverse. Anyone have a clue what model it might be.

I find it odd that in the future they will be using cassette decks

Trippy the comment has been removed. That's really weird. It was actually longer but i edited down to this one sentence. Must have been done by siftbot, but no clue why and ive never seen it done before. Very odd.

Also i asked lucky to double check siftbots auto spammer as i cant figure out for the life of me why siftbot spammered him.

Im highly skeptical of auto siftbots ability to figure shit out.
