So I had recently played with ChatGPT. I started the thread about using so-called "cheek microphones" on musical theater productions. ChatGPT replied that these mics become commonplace in Broadway, but it boils down to director's preference and available budget. Then I tried to generalize to...

That's why I steered clear from watching foreign films and series on my TV; Indonesian subtitles are distracting. For average viewers they don't care about subtitles, but as ESL (English as second language) speaker, I can understand what English-speaking actors are saying, so I prefer no subtitles.

Yeah, that's why I preferred to play games in English nowadays.. I posted this post from my perspective as casual gamer. I remembered that during my times at high school, my school had Japanese lesson. My generation (class of 2019) didn't get that subject, but the preceding and succeeding...

Hi, I have PlayStation(R) 2 gaming console on my house. It is considered legacy per today's standard (as there are new-generation PlayStation(R) 5), but still popular here. One of games that I installed on the console is Sengoku Basara. The gameplay is similar to Dynasty Warriors, but I won't...

Hi, Supposed that Raul was learning Korean, because he would like to work with BTS and BLACKPINK's agency, which requires fluency in Korean. And let's assumed that his mother tongue language is Indonesian. After several months of courses and he adequately understood Korean, he decided to watch...

For 400 degrees one, that is Gradian, and practically no one use it, they prefer only degrees or radians

I was just showing my art struggles, yeah because I'm more of left-brained (logical) than right-brained (artistry). So STEM is one of my strengths, and art is one of my weaknesses.

Hi everyone, I was quite excellent at STEM subjects at school, but struggled (bad) at art classes. Here's why: At grade 9 of middle school, one of the job (assignment) that I had to perform in weeks was singing Amayadori by Mayumi Itsuwa. I and other students were given photocopies of music...

I'm neither eurosceptic, just eurorealist (euro-reformist), but UK left the EU since February 1 last year.

I had also similar experience in 2019. On August 4th circa 12:00, western halves of Java (Banten, Jakarta, West Java, and Western Central Java) experiences blackout. While electricity in Jakarta was restored at night of the same day, at my town (Tangerang) the electricity was restored in...

Hi, In education, I often hear about semesters, which are each halves of an academic year (the first one is from July to December and the second one is from January to June). However, I never hear about that term in sport seasons: that is each halves of a sport season are just called halves...

no.

Hi, In high school physics I learned how to convert between Celcius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, and Reaumur scale of temperature. While the first three scales are highly used, why do we learn the fourth scale (Reaumur) when there aren't any practical use of it? Just for formality? Bagas

Let's say that we have XYZ TV channel, which offers wide variety of programs; from cartoons for children to telenovelas to live sport coverage and news. However, the rating agency for TV programs and films (like ESRB for games) rated all such program on teen (suitable for age 13 and up). The...

For engines, kilowatts are used instead.

Popularity of an unit doesn't necessarily make it SI unit. I'm happy with the explanation from this thread.

Still business as usual, opening this laptop for gaming, and playing around basic sysadmin tasks.

People refer HP as mechanical horsepower (the original definition by Watt himself). But in automotive engines (especially trucks), metric horsepower (aka PS) is sometimes used.

When we talk about engines on automotive industry (cars, motorbikes, trucks, etc.), we often refer the power produced by such engines by horsepower. But when we talk about electricity, the power is measured in kilowatts. Despite the former case is highly popular, why isn't horsepower considered...

So can we say that conservation of energy is one size fits all law (or the perfect law)?

Hmmm... What about game rules?

I had a story when I was incorrectly dressed on Kartini's Day event. In late April 2017, when I was at grade 10 of high school, I wore my usual school outfit (white shirt and gray long pants). I also brought scheduled textbooks and notebooks in my bag. At 7:30, I went downstairs and had a...

Work-energy theorem has flaws on work done against friction and deformed body, and neither the mechanical energy conservation address that 'perfectly', right?

A radian is ratio between length of the arc and its radius: $$\theta = \frac {x} {r}$$ For a complete circle, it became: $$\theta = \frac {2 \pi r} {r} \\ \theta = 2 \pi ~ \text {rad}$$

Since I can't edit my first post here, let me update derivation of (3). From equation (2), we divide each sides by number of teeth of each wheels: $$\begin{align} \omega_A \cdot r_A &= \omega_B \cdot r_B \nonumber \\ \frac {\omega_A \cdot r_A} {N_A} &= \frac {\omega_B \cdot r_B} {N_B}...

What I mean was cancelling ##\frac {2\pi} {t}## from both sides, so ##r_A## is not necessarily same as ##r_B##.

Hello, Here in this thread I will derive formulas for relation between two wheels, either teethed (e.g. gears) or non-teethed. In wheel relationship, we have three cases: Two wheels at the same axle Two wheels intersected in parallel (meshed) Two wheels connected by a belt We will examine...

Yeah, FFA (free for all)

@Vanadium 50 so let's read random novels to get the idea how they can be written

Hello all, In high school physics, the magnitude sum of vector addition can be found by cosine rule: $$\vec {R^2} = \vec {F^2_1} + \vec {F^2_2} + 2 \cdot \vec F_1 \cdot \vec F_2 \cdot cos ~ \alpha$$ and its angle are calculated by sine rule: $$\frac {\vec R} {sin ~ \alpha} = \frac {\vec F_1}...

But in my case I had synopsis to be expanded into the novel. I know that novels divided into chapters. Should I think about general plot (across all chapters), then think about plot in each chapters, or else?

No insights interested.

Novels aren't up my alley. During language courses, I only read quotes (snippets) from novels only.

Hello all, Last two nights from the time I write this thread, I had dreamed about Giro Fun Run. Story: I opened my phone and one of my friend informed that there was a fun run event entitled Giro Fun Run, with its theme was Fight for Pink (similar to Giro d'Italia's slogan until 2016). I...

Hello all, In schools I had been dealt with novels (just quotes from them) on any language classes. I had discussed a lot about its plot, the characters, background, and even moral stories. But I haven't ever been taught about how to write my own. In grade 12 of high school, instead I learned...

@StatGuy2000 I'm neither expert nor fluent on local languages (though I did learn Sundanese at elementary school). Yet Bahasa Indonesia is my mother tongue.

Just English, but trio Italian-French-Spanish interested me.

From PoisonControl: If real extinguishers was used, the TV show would be like Russian Roulette, risking the acts' life for the entertainment.

And dangerous to their health?

I mean I'm asking for real extinguisher scenario one (hypothetical), not the fake extinguisher one.

My questions: What will happen if instead of fake extinguisher, the 'executors' sprayed the ballerina by real extinguisher? Does offensives toward autistics hurt the autistics themselves? Note that we are discussing single scenario on a TV show.

Not what I mean. Please see my original post above.

In this case, the voters triggered the executors to sprayed the ballerina using the fake extinguisher. But what if the real extinguisher was used instead? Would be any lawsuits?

Hello all, In middle 2013 I used to watch a talent show named Don't Stop Me Now. This show selected random acts from near stage. Then they had to survive for 100 seconds from voters in the production house. If they failed to survive, random executors would punished them. If they survived, they...

Some gymnasts, like Rachel Marie (the content creator) are also good at contortion, although she stopped it because of back pain (contortion's risk):

No, no, no. In this case, she enrolled into ballet classes, and she also learned from Youtube.

Let me state my hypothesis reason: A few weeks or months before the episode, someone from production house for this game show called her (basketball player), asked her to enroll into beginner ballet course. Since she was latecomers (as oppossed to ballerinas that trained from child), she learned...

Maddie Ziegler from DanceMoms also have gymnastics tutorial: What do you think about dancer-trying-gymnastics?
