[Rant] Minor Rant III: For a Few Hollers More

Does this mean we're adding a stripping option to Pokemon Go? I'm not sure this is the best time of year for it, but go on..... :D
 
Had Christmas with both sides of the family over the past few days.
My brother's daughter is the only child on that side, so she gets to choose the gifts and hand them out etc.
Now, bear in mind she already got a bunch of gifts with Sinterklaas (the tradition Santa Claus is based on - guy bringing gifts in December). There were literally so many presents under the tree that we couldn't open them all in one night and had to continue on Christmas day. Over 60 presents in all, most for her. Admittedly, not all of them are toys, some are useful things. Still, she easily got 20+ toys and games and such.
Her reaction isn't "oh my what a load of presents". No, after all the presents were (finally) done, she was annoyed and angry because Santa Claus still hadn't come b y to fill the stocking she had hanging up. And while she went to take a bath, her mom made sure to stuff the stocking to bursting with some more candy and toys and so on.
It's just....Ugh. My brother and sister-in-law buy stuff almost exclusively second hand but often unopened, on brocantes, yard sales, e-bay, craigslist, that kind of stuff, so probably none of thee things was worth more than €10 by itself. But that leads to buying a lot of stuff and she's now just something between spoiled and materialistic and ungrateful, expecting lots of new stuff for her. It just annoys me.

Dammit. Clients. Listen.

If the waveform of your commercial looks like this:

... then your commercial is bad and you should feel bad.

I just said that.

I would think they would still want their peaks to be closer to -1dB, wouldn't they? Not compressed, just amplified..

I can adjust that. I was more talking about how it wasn't a solid mint-colored rod with tapered ends.
