Thanks! I don’t think any other medium could be nearly as conducive to conveying the critical parts of this piece as Lego is, especially with orange being by far the most common color for the modern brick separator and red being by far the most common color for the crowbar piece.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•The band Rush just put out a handful of gross and lazy AI-gen music videos. So sick of this trend/degradationEnglish
2·22 days agoI don’t think i/o (or o/i) had AI generated music. A number of the songs had been works-in-progress for years since Gabriel had performed early versions of them live in concert prior. In his full moon updates for each song, there is sometimes footage of the performers in the studio with instruments and even an orchestra or choir at times. I remember specifically he cited Brian Eno’s “electric worms” synths for the fifth track. There had also been a substantial time gap since Gabriel put out his previous album, and he notably likes to mix genres, including world music. If any artist would evolve their style atypically for their age, it would be Gabriel.

The word “or” here is incorrect. Reuploads of the same song is an apparent method to stimulate views and thus get ad revenue. “Between the Wheels”, for example, has

392·23 days agoIn most cases, I expect that moves like this are by the record company/rightsholders/whoever as a cheap cash-grab rather than the artist themselves. Peter Gabriel is a vocal exception to that.

Are you able to determine the density of the powder you have by measuring a known volume and weighing it? And then compare this density to the molar mass of the compounds in question?
Also not quite what you’re asking, but do note that Magnesium Glycinate and Magnesium Bisglycinate are chemically different even though some brands market them as the same. If you’re taking this for health reasons, Magnesium is the active ingredient and the glycinate helps your body absorb it; bisglycinate is more effective at the absorption but you get significantly less Magnesium per serving/molar mass. Disclaimer: not a doctor/scientist but I have tried and researched both for my own health usage
If you’re concerned about the taste, Mg glycinate/bisglycinate/citrate are all available in pill capsule (and I think flavored gummy?) form.
