What is the oldest lullaby or nursery rhyme that...
11 upvotes • 1 comment
As far as the earliest we know of, it's another Babylonian tablet, about 4000 years old and most often known as Little Baby in the Dark House. We don't have the music for it, but again, the BBC article has a good go at describing some commonalities of the music that tends to accompany lullabies, so that might inspire you.
The rough translation for that Babylonian lullaby, by the way, is:
Little Baby in the dark house
You have seen the sun rise
Why are you crying?
Why are you screaming?
You have disturbed the house god.
'Who has disturbed me?' says the house god.
'It is the baby who has disturbed you!
'Who scared me?' says the house god.
'The baby has disturbed you, the baby has scared you, making noises like a drunkard who cannot sit still on his stool.
He has disturbed your sleep!
'Call the baby now, says the house god.

Short version: Valve devalued some of the rarest items by adding a path that lets you generate them from cheaper items

They made the game better for actual players, and in so doing, gutted it for investors

That's just lovely, like fed two birds with one scone 🥹

I think there's a non-zero chance she's being scapegoated here for pressure from higher up to get margins up at least in part due to Satya's AI addiction.

Microsoft CFO Amy Hood has forced Xbox to deliver an industry margin far beyond what is typical for gaming in general, which will devastate the business if not rectified soon.

SCOOP: For the last two years, Microsoft has pushed Xbox to hit profit margins of 30%, an ambitious target that's far higher than the industry average.

This chase for profit has led Xbox to raise prices, cut thousands of jobs, and rethink everything.

Jenni Hermoso: un mugroso le da un beso sin su consentimiento, es víctima de una campaña de acoso por parte de la ultraderecha, y es vetada un año entero en la selección española.

Jenni Hermoso vuelve a la Roja. Un año de veto, cinco listas sin su nombre y un “te protejo” que fue castigo. Con Sonia Bermúdez llega la justicia: vuelve la máxima goleadora de España. Porque lo que le robaron no era fama, era juego

Justicia para Jenni Hermoso

La negativa a entregar datos al Ministerio muestra que tienen mucho que ocultar.

No es sólo desobediencia a la ley, es dejar claro que son incapaces de garantizar la salud de la gente.

LEGALLY YOU SHOULD BE SENDING INVOICES FOR GOODS AND SERVICES. IF YOU TAKE COMMISSIONS ON PAYPAL DO NOT USE FRIENDS AND FAMILY. YOU ARE NOT SAFE, YOUR CLIENT IS NOT SAFE.

THIS IS A FORM OF TAX EVASION.

YOU SHOULD BE USING INVOICES.

Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.

Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.

Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.

Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

One of the worst quotes I’ve seen a game exec give:

“You look at Call of Duty, you look at Minecraft, you look at Fortnite, you look at Roblox ... And the idea of locking it to one store or one device is antiquated for most people“

All four of those are literally stores gating exclusive content.

If exclusives are antiquated, and the concept of consoles are antiquated (because everything is an Xbox), then what even is Xbox? What are they offering?
