I mean, clearly they didn't since the dude I replied to is still here...

Just because you feel like you got your money's worth doesn't make the criticism unwarranted though. It's ok to enjoy something others don't like but that doesn't invalidate their criticisms.

Since no one here is talking about the Jurassic Park trilogy, I'll go ahead and say my hot take. JP3 is way better than 2. And obviously the originals are all miles ahead of the Jurassic Worlds.

So, there's a difference between sound absorption and soundproofing. Curtains and foam panels can do wonders for making your room sound better acoustically but won't do much to lower the amount of sound getting out. The only way to actually soundproof is either by adding a bunch of mass (bricks/concrete blocks/mass loaded vinyl) or by creating air gaps (or some combination of the two). Conflating soundproofing and sound absorption is very common but they are different. . Paper egg cartons will do little to nothing for either sound absorption or soundproofing; this myth comes from old style sound absorption foam tiles that kinda looked like egg cartons and were therefore referred to as such.

You're absolutely right about sealing door gaps helping though.

Or just leave them. Leaves are good, people. If you can, leave your leaves.

Probably a reference to JFK Jr wanting the polio vaccine to be banned

I never understood why the defenders were still told to hold fire at this point. Clearly the uruks are in range if an old dude who doesn't have the strength to hold the string back for long can nail one. Why not unleash the barrage while they're doing their pregame pump up ritual?

Are there good remote options for these yet? Imo this is a solution that will never see wide adoption until it's as convenient as smart tvs or sticks

What's her name?

I'm a drummer so I often have drumsticks in my hands. I can hold each end of a stick with both hands and get the stick from in front of me to behind my back without taking my hands off the stick or hung under my legs.

It wasn't even a copyright complaint, it was a phishing report

Feels like you're being intentionally facetious but yeah I pretty much agree with all that. I think the nuance is that most people don't want to work jobs but would likely occupy themselves with their passions if their basic needs were guaranteed.
