We've had one sound, yes.
Scientist confirms his stereo was set on mono since he purchased it.
The title is click bait but the article is decent
Eh, the title is fine. This phenomenon happens to have an interesting name, but it's not a lie, and "second sound" is an apt (if goofy) name for the phenomenon.
And honestly, this seems like a relatively important discovery in the world of physics. It's gaining a stronger understanding of the fundamentals of how matter interacts. We know a lot about specific properties of matter, but we know less about why any given element might have those properties. This seems like the kind of thing that can help explain what's actually going on, why matter sometimes behaves in unusual ways.
To think that we can still discover new things about this world - amazing! Gone are the days of merry explorers (hah) so good on these guys for this win!
Wait 'til they "discover" symphonies.
That's cool and all, but can I get sight beyond sight?
Snarf snarf!
Where's your sword of omens? Should be one of the features.
They named it "second sound" because people just got confused when they called it a "heat wave"

Pretty accurate.
Agreed... But the way it was introduced...
One day AI will get that good at annoying people. Not yet tho.
