It might be the same one in the original Sim City. Definitely seared into my brain, and I hear it in shows, too

PrimeErective@startrek.websiteto Music@lemmy.world•They took music from us when they killed the wireless headsets :(English1·1 month agoThey already make devices that do it. Usually it’s not a strong enough signal to get past the metal panels on your car, but strong enough for the radio to pick it up on an unused station
PrimeErective@startrek.websiteto Music@lemmy.world•They took music from us when they killed the wireless headsets :(English64·1 month agoI’ve long thought that it was ridiculous that radio tuners are not standard in every cell phone. While we’re at it, they should all be able to broadcast on the FM band so that you can ditch the Bluetooth receiver

PrimeErective@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do all languages share the same intonation for questions?2·10 months agoThe first two have emphasis that imply something different than a simple question. Like you are asking a bunch of people individually, and you are directing each question at a specific person.
The last one would maybe be like, if the person did something weird, and you were sarcastically asking where the are from, to imply that they were raised by wolves, or something like that.
Point being, yes, you can ask like that, but it has different connotations than a simple question, which I think is where you would use the rising intonation.
