There are many other tunings you could use, Just Intonation, for one example. Although I agree it’s strange to say that. Like saying ‘We’re driving there, in a car, with four wheels.’

Some more info, if you’re curious:

I have a synthesizer with a ton of different tunings on it. I flipped through them once. Some are interesting, but they mostly just sound _bad_.

Ever since they’ve started nagging to get the app, nagging to log in, not letting me read more comments without logging in, I’ve stopped using Reddit. I came here instead. I opened Voat one time because I found some people in a ~6 year old FOSS Reddit thread who had used a script to replace all their comments essentially with ‘Screw Reddit, I’m going to Voat.’ That place is a _cesspool_.

Note that they said small businesses will suffer 60% losses of profit per dollar they spend with Facebook. They said the quiet part loud. They're not concerned for the small businesses, they're concerned small businesses will put their marketing budget elsewhere when it’s not profitable to just throw money at Facebook.
