Let's make up a new name for this shape

I don't know how to get single spaced lines here so I can't draw it in ASCII art, but NW corner: angle 90 degrees, top length 2, NE angle 120 degrees, right slanted side length 1, SE angle 60 degrees, bottom length 2.5, SW angle 90 degrees, left vertical side length about 0.87.

chatGPT sez it's a trapezoid. chatGPT is stupider than a bag of rocks.

Other AIs say the same. Same assessment.

And somebody tell me how to get single spaced lines here

In windows, if I drag & drop a file <sexy.txt> onto a batch file or executable's icon, a console opens and runs the program, with "sexy.txt" as the first parameter.

In Linux, is there some method to make drag & drop work in a similar way?

It would be two problems:

  1. to open a terminal & run the program

  2. "sexy.txt" being the first parameter

At a concert the auditorium will be large probly; lots of people cheering, instruments on stage, etc. The singer gets real close to the mic to create a better signal to noise ratio. Each singer or instrument probly has their own mic, and the engineer can adust the gain for each mic as needed.

But many times, if the song gets to a place of passion and the singer goes real loud, I'd think the the loud volume would make the mic itself start clipping. The mic has some physical diaphram or pressure sensor, doesn't it? So adjusting the gain wouldn't fix that.

Do concert singers use special microphones with low sensitivity? so they can get real close to beat the ambient noise, and if they sing really loud, the mic still transduces with accuracy?

Or do these microphones have a volume response that's condensed, ie. logarithmic response?

Electrical engineer here, so can handle teckie detals
