Came here to say exactly this.

Beyond this, the sound engineer and the producers will also work with the musicians to determine the intended audience of the track. If it’s meant to be danced to, you’re going to want to record it at a tempo that’s easy to follow and is a multiple that aligns with other songs that are danced to.

If a set or album is being recorded, the tempos will also have to be considered in comparison to the other songs, to create the right overall feeling. Set and audience combined will inform the max/min of all the songs, and sound engineers usually try to get performers to play to whole numbers in beats per minute.

Most requirements your body needs are over days and weeks, so it would handle things nutritionally just fine.

As far as microbiome and bowel movements go? Most people need more dietary fiber than they’re getting already. As long as you keep that up so you’re regular and not gassy, you’d be fine.

After all, the human body is able to graze on roots and berries and eat a big fatty meaty meal once a week, or survive solely on meat and fat and water for 8 months of the year. Macronutrient division by meal is well within that spectrum.

“We MUST invade Canada. Not for the oil, not for the water, not for the minerals, steel or aluminum, but for the eggs! Get America cracking again!”

Political parties are themselves coalitions. Does PP really think that everyone voting C has the same goals and vision?

Provinces have been doing democratic coalition governments as long as Canada has existed.

In fact, NOT working together, like the Conservatives want, is what isn’t democratic.

Of course, I’m talking social democracy here, not the American “two wolves and a sheep vote on dinner” model.

Shouldn’t they be calling for Vance’s resignation? He’s the one who broke protocol, not Zelenskyy

That’s… the point?

They have a grocery store there, but those groceries get trucked in… over the border.

My lesson in this was way back when LinkedIn came out with an app. I installed it and the first thing it did was ask me for all my contacts and start pinging tracking servers. I uninstalled it immediately and avoided apps for web services after that.

Later that year, I found that if I HAD allowed that app to do what it wanted, it would have grabbed all that data and sent it to the company, who was selling it off to third parties. They got in a big class action lawsuit for it.

Those were the days. Now it’s just expected behavior.

I don’t know about the rest, but kids in Point Roberts have to cross the border just to go to school. There’s also pretty much no way to get groceries or anything else without them crossing the border.

Do the words “ruse” and “lose” also sound the same in your accent?
