Healthy new world war!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I think I already posted this last year, but this is how NYE sounds like for me:

I live in a tower building and there are no objects (like trees or other buildings) to “dampen” the sound. All the explosions sound massive, extra loud, and very uncomfortable. Also notice that there’s no music or people cheering. Just explosions. I haven’t lived through a war in our country (yet), but I guess it’ll sound something like this. 🫤

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It’s not any better on the “ground” with trees and buildings around. They don’t dampen at all, in fact the houses just cause reverb and amplify the bangs. Rest assured, I did not hear any people laughing or anything in that nature. Just grenades going off. Talking to my mates, it appears that I live in an especially bad shithole, they reported a noticable reduction of explosions around 00:20. Over here, there was constant fire till around 02:00.

Yep, that’s exactly how I imagine a war zone, too.

@ionores@twtxt.net Opening the windows is the worst you can do with all that crazy smoke out there. But the music ain’t too bad. :-)
