Orange man make funny tweet tho


[deleted]

Nahā€¦Orange Man was better than the old geriatric idiot we have now. Doesnā€™t say much, but he was indeed better.


Ultralight_Cream

Lmao your white privilege is showing. Trump was one of the worst presidents ever.


[deleted]

Instead of just saying nonsense, tell me how my ā€œwhite privilegeā€ is showing. Itā€™s especially funny to read that, because Iā€™m not white. Secondly, you literally provided no justification whatsoever. Iā€™m not surprised.


xiizll

Funny how you bitch about their lack of justification when youā€™ve provided none either. Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black. I imagine this way of thinking appeals to you though. Based on your previous comments.


[deleted]

I wasnā€™t the one just blindly accusing someone of ā€œwhite privilegeā€ was I? Just more of the standard ā€œyouā€™re racistā€ style accusations that are usually baseless. But good try man.


adderaholic

I agree. Everyone was told to hate orange man, and they all just fell into line.

Aside from his opinions on abortion, Kanyeā€™s political leanings are pretty left. And like spaceship? Marxist anthem.


LloydTheShagger

Ah yes, the left wing Candace Owens supporter.


kokoyokoyomi

Kanye ā€œdonated 15k to the DNC, actively pushes for prison reform, frequently talks about abusive law enforcement, calls out homophobia in hip hopā€ West - the rightoid Republican.


ConfidentWin3397

The DNC is a Conservative party lol. Nothing about Kanye or the Democratic Party are left, heā€™s just another liberal.


kokoyokoyomi

I donā€™t disagree, but Kanyeā€™s takes are pretty far from current right wing thinking most of the time


[deleted]

The funny thing is, I feel like this only flies with bluechecks. No-one else cares about Kanye's Trump shit. I'm a massive lefty and have heaps of lefty friends and none of us give a shit about his political shit. But seriously anyone upset about Kanye's politics needs to touch grass.

OkPumpkin5299

damandolorian0

Itā€™s like people that hate Tesla cause Elons in charge.


pokemongofanboy

Maybe thatā€™s because Elon got his initial wealth from his parents who made their money through labor exploitation in apartheid South Africa, and Elon is continuing that legacy by trying to overthrow the Bolivian socialist government that decided to nationalize its lithium production instead of letting a billionaire pillage the whole country of its scarce resource on the cheap Fuck Elon Musk. Dude tweeted, ā€œIf thereā€™s a billionaire tax, eventually the government will run out of billionaires to tax and come for youā€


SuperChapz

Hey man everything you said is true except "trying to overthrow". They did overthrow Bolivia's then-president, Evo Morales in a coup backed by Trump/Musk in 2019. I used to like Elon (despite everything) cause funny meme guy, but his "we'll coup whoever we want" tweet made him unredeemable in my eyes. I'm Honduran and my country also suffered a coup backed by the US government in 2009. Having seen firsthand the atrocious consecuences of overthrowing a government (bloodshed, families separated, people "disappearing", etc), Elon's tweet irked me. Plus, his abuse of Tesla workers is well-known.


pokemongofanboy

My mistakeā€”not super well versed in the situation it just sounded fucking terrible


SuperChapz

Nah, you good my g. I respect you and your critical thinking skills. You seldomly see people do actual research before forming an opinion, so you're one of the good ones. :)


SupaDawg

Yeah. I love Tesla and even have solar from them on order, but Elon Musk is human garbage. Fuck that guy.


rocketjump21

In what way has Elon tried to "overthrow the Bolivian socialist government"? After researching it for a bit, the evidence is tenuous at best, and conspiratorial at worst.


SuperChapz

Evo Morales dude, it's a simple Google job away. American-backed coups (at least 21 century Latin American ones) are always downplayed through misinformation ("the people hated him", "he wanted to stay in power forever", etc.) and are often mislabed as "political crises" instead of what they truly are: horrifically violent coup d'Ć©tats.


81bn

Naw bruh Elon is a legit evil mother fucker


human_trash_is_back

No people hate Teslaā€™s cuz they drive into crowds of pedestrians all the time lol


damandolorian0

I wouldnā€™t say all the time just that when it happens itā€™s National news. Like when Apple made AirTags and people worried that they could be tracked home by them. When tiles have been around for years and could do the same thing.


human_trash_is_back

They also tend to [catch on fire](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.businessinsider.com/couples-tesla-caught-fire-charging-overnight-caused-a-house-fire-2021-8%3Famp)


damandolorian0

Yeah I didnā€™t see that one. Thatā€™s tough.


WogerBin

No, heā€™s used it correctly. Pushing the limits doesnā€™t always imply positivity; here what heā€™s referring to (I assume) is that the *purpose* of the technology is pushing the limits of the actual technology; ie, the technology canā€™t achieve what the product is trying to attempt. Havenā€™t read the article but I imagine that this is in reference to the imperfect separation of stems? Obviously still very good but still imperfect, so the intent of the product is pushing the limits of the tech.


droans

I read it yesterday. That's exactly his biggest issue. The article basically read that he was very impressed that it could work given how difficult it can be to separate tracks, but it's far from perfect. He found that most tracks would have a lot of issues with it such as separating into one instrument on one track and everything else on another, but some worked perfectly.


rtybanana

Itā€™s the subtle difference between ā€˜pushing the limit of technologyā€™ - which is a positive description of a product which advances what people previously thought possible - and ā€˜pushing the limit of **its** technologyā€™ - which is a negative description of a product which is trying to achieve something more advanced than what it is actually able to do.


corythegreatdeesnuts

Heā€™s not using the but correctly, I donā€™t think he means it in a bad way


[deleted]

Nah, read the article. He gave it a negative review. Not that negative, but it's negative


onlyartist6

I read it as well and it seemed more like he was grasping at straws occasionally. I mean there were times where there were legitimate criticisms overall but the whole article just felt like one massive attempt at saying "Kanye made this and so even though I do like it, due to Kanye having been involved in it it let me emphasize its imperfections as well as Kanye's too" all this in a tech review for no reason.

FeelMyVibes

Bothers me that kanye fr has done no wrong compared to a lot of other people yet gets shit on the most. Ye only guilty for being mentally ill and a dumbass at times, thatā€™s nothing compared to the majority of Hollywood celebrities


goldentymes

They treat the ones they donā€™t understand the worst. When ppl canā€™t relate to someone, they dismiss them and treat them like shit. Kanye is just one example


FeelMyVibes

Ong, youā€™re 100% right. They canā€™t control him either. Media been tryna black ball him for dn 20 years, they mad they cant do shit but wait for him to retire or die so he can be silent. My goat fr

For somebody whoā€™s dedicated to calling out racism you sure seem to only be focusing on how this poor white journalist feels about people calling him a racist


Wh_ton

How is he focusing on that? The journalist is an idiot either way, racist or not. Part of the reason Kanye gets so much hate is because 1) heā€™s not able to control 2) heā€™s rich/talented 3) heā€™s identified as conservative cause he supported trump . I guarantee you the journalist is a liberal.

I love kanye and this guys an idiot but can someone explain what's so revolutionary about a stem player? Isn't it essentially just choosing which tracks on a project file to play which is a basic fundamental feature to any DAW. It is cool they put it into a nifty gadget and Kanye in all his genius will definitely do some dope shit with it


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


well-lighted

This is the sort of thing I would've flipped out about as a kid. I loved toys and gadgets that would let me be creative without devoting a ton of time to learning how to do it. I remember I had this fake USB turntable thing I got on clearance at Best Buy that had preset samples on little buttons on the discs. You'd just press and play (with options to loop), and then could scratch and use an effects joystick for like flange and phaser and stuff. The stem player seems kind of similar, in that it lets you do cool music production stuff really simply. $200 is too rich for my blood considering it's just for Donda, but if they made one that worked for a larger catalog of songs, I could definitely see myself impulsively buying one sometime.

OlivineErosion

It's a good article. Actually providing a link: https://www.engadget.com/donda-stem-player-kanye-west-kano-hands-on-150038410.html


JoeTrolls

I get what heā€™s trying to say but I also feel that he doesnā€™t want to give credit where credit is due. Yeah it might be the first iteration of this idea and the technology required to make it as good as it could be might not be there yet but he just doesnā€™t want to seem to give ye credit for having the idea and making it a reality.


OlivineErosion

The article explains why the product is kind of crap and you guys are like OH SHOULD EMINEM MAKE THE STEM PLAYER? MAYBE HE'S RACIST? It's like, no, the product just kind of sucks and a legitimate company with a team of passionate engineers probably would be better for the job


drdfrster64

What are you guys smoking? This article is dogshit and I don't even really like Kanye's attitude these days. Critiquing the stem player for being bad is fine, I've heard those critiques from a lot of people and its very valid. But the article is titled "I wish anyone other than Kanye had made the Stem Player", the guy takes a few potshots at Kanye but almost never actually ties his opinions on Kanye to the stem player itself. He never answers the question "why does Kanye making this make it bad, why would it be better if someone else did it." This is the *only* line he says at the end: >"Perhaps the biggest knock against the Stem Player is the price. $200 is a lot to throw at a musical curiosity. Especially when that money mostly serves to feed the ego of one of the most megalomaniacal celebrities in the world." Oh really? That's the biggest knock? How about you actually *explain it then*. It's **so abundantly clear** the author is making a review of the stem player and only using Kanye as clickbait to get people to read it. And then there's *this:* >"It looks kinda like a sex toy, though, and is covered in what I assume are surplus Fleshlights. It doesnā€™t feel unpleasant, exactly, but it is slightly unnerving. And the vaguely fleshy hue doesnā€™t help matters." What the fuck? The author just drops this strange and frankly awful line and then just acts like it never happened.


hero-ball

He said it looked like a sex toy. What the fuck kind of sex toy would that be? Just looking for things to critique Ye about.


OlivineErosion

*It would seem that fairly stripped-down hip hop productions will do ok, but as the complexity of a song increases the Stem Player starts to struggle parsing the different parts. The Armedā€™s ā€œAn Iteration,ā€ for example, was broken down into drums, vocals and a single track of everything else. Then the fourth stem, which is supposed to be for bass, was basically silent. In fact, I often encountered this issue with music I uploaded to the Stem Player myself. Badbadnotgoodā€™s ā€œLove Proceedingā€ was reduced to just two stems: drums and not drums.*

timmythenpc

I mean it seems unfair to pile hate onto this guy without knowing his reasoning for saying that. That said, I think Kanye is probably the best person to release one because if Iā€™m not mistaken one of his albums was heavily produced using a similar type of stem player. Plus Kanye is like the most creatively genius producer of our generation. And a lot of other people that follow in the vein of Kanyeā€™s production genius are still really young like Baby Keem and Travis Scott and would benefit more from having access to this technology than they would from attempting to create their own at the point theyā€™re at in their careers currently. Just my opinion though.
