Reply to comment by Daniel_The_Thinker in TIL American WW2 airplanes were sent to war unpainted starting in 1943. The polished surface made the planes faster and lighter, giving more range to all planes and more cargo hold for the bombers by PatmygroinB

Reply to TIL in 2018 a Namibian musician set up a permanent solar-powered sound installation at an undisclosed location in the Namib Desert in Africa with six speakers attached to an MP3 player that play's Toto's classic tune 'Africa' on a continuous loop. by big_macaroons
Stumbling accross it must felt like some videogame easter egg putted by the dev for no reason. I imagine someone trying to figure out the why and how and moving the speakers or something to clear the riddle as if some chest or door will magically appear.

Reply to I’m Ray Chen, international concert violinist, performed in over 60 countries, was featured in Riot Game’s Emmy winning animated series, Arcane, and cofounder of Tonic, an app that motivates you to practice. AMA! by raychenviolin
Hey Ray!
What other genra of music do you like to play on your violin, even if its not fit to your instrument? (like blues, metal, jazz, irish, etc.)
I also wonder if you ever try oriental music like arab, turkish, greek, etc? (quarter tone, makam mode, oriental tuning, etc).
Really appreciate that you, Hilary and twoset share classical music knowledge to the comon folks. I start learning music theory because of you all!
