Experimenting with Audacity in preparation for the upcoming school semester to find ways to clean up lecture recordings. The OceanGate Implosion sound (original) seemed like a good sound bite to practice on.

Turns out it’s pretty easy, and I now have my new notification tone! (sounded great with headphones; barely audible through the phone speakers. Amplifying it just makes the upper ranges staticky… so… scratch the notification tone idea, it’s shit for that)

This has nothing to do with our boy Luigi, but I have a hunch y’all will enjoy this just the same; and I’m not sure where else to post it.

Saved as a .wav and uploaded to filebin for easy sharing. I can’t upload it directly to Lemmy, and I’m not really sure how else to share it with the internet, but if there’s a better option than filebin let me know and I can throw it there too.

Link expires in 6 days, so if you see this post after that point, just give me shout and I’ll reupload it.

Feel free to pass the file around, reupload it wherever, or edit it further.

      kk, I think it’s all set. Created with qbittorrent and ‘Copy > Magnet Link’

      magnet:?xt=urn:btih:7449c584726665afb6fb6b12eb01241e910943ee&dn=Trash%20Compacted.wav&xl=1916214

      …since I have no idea if I did it right, here’s the ‘general’ tab on the new torrent file:

      I left the trackers blank hoping it would fill that in automatically… it doesn’t look like it did, but it does say ‘working’:

      …if anything’s gonna break it, it’s probably that.

      Also again I’ll have fairly limited computer access this weekend - comp will be off when I’m not around, so if I’m the only seed it’ll be unavailable during those times. Usually I’ll be online fairly consistently on weekday evenings (CST)

      And feel free to school me if I just did anything stupid.

      I’m not going to have much access to my PC the next couple days, but I’ll give it a shot once I do. Never actually started a torrent from scratch before, but I can’t imagine it’s that difficult.

      I did just search for an audio host that I can upload to from my phone, and I think this one will work, but I’ve never heard of ‘jumpshare’ and the embedded play bar shows a 00:00 duration (maybe it takes a min to process?), but it re-downloads just fine on my end.

      Not sure if sketchy. Here’s the link if you want to try it, otherwise torrent coming soonish.

    This would be acceptable if the CEO died alone, but with that kid in there. Just makes it sad.

      Kid dying is the billionaire’s final atrocity, and agreed sad af - but I’ll still take the win of a few oligarchs getting squashed.

      I’m going to say the chances of his redemption later in life would be very low considering who he was with and what he was doing

      Teenagers die en masse every single day because of monsters like the oligarchs on that sub. That is ghoulish. Those fuckers have no qualms with using kids as a meatshield, so it’s necessary for us to separate the tragedy of that shield being pieced, vs the godsend of an an oligarch being struck down. We need to take our wins when we can get them. This doens’t mean we’re celebrating the kid’s death.

          Is it the part where they’re able to set aside the death of a teenager to focus on the bright part (ie one less billionaire)? or is it something else?

    I hate my billionaires as much as the next best lemmy user but this seems to be just a tad too edgy for my liking.
