  • That movement is still energy

    Build a circuit to make use of that et voilà

    Friction makes heat. Same thing really

  • We can do both

  • The Epstein distraction war

  • World's most obvious con man continues to con fans

  • Edit: damn the pilcrow renders shit on my phone

  • Ask him why he doesn't have a t-shirt with his card details on it

  • Hvad

  • Huh, typically you'd set an instance to scale out, not in when CPU usage spikes

  • I'm getting tired of all this

  • the only stuff that's really on there is some music, photos, backups. If it gets lost, nothing important really is lost.

    Photos are pretty important to a lot of people, I know that's the most obvious thing on my server that people would miss and not be able to get anywhere else

  • I hit this today when I went to check a local restaurant's Instagram for the menu (like many I've come across, they treat Instagram as their website)

    Nope. I guess that information is now all gone to me

    Between this and Twitter I'm pretty annoyed at how much harder it is to get local information without just physically going to a place compared to 5 years ago. I'm not gonna pretend it used to be perfect, but this is getting spectacularly shitty

  • Yeah I was gonna say, how much similarity is there with servo?

  • Well firstly since about 2020 everything has basically doubled in price due to inflation, so that's more or less your camera point. As someone who also takes pictures, they're certainly still innovating, it's just money is worth less now.

    The phone thing is more down to the product category maturing. 5-10 years ago there were still obvious improvements to be made to the hardware and software. Now we've effectively perfected the black rectangle for the current tech available, so the only stuff they can do to differentiate now is bloat. Also, as above, everything is more expensive, so if they get some commercial partnerships attached to that bloat they can keep the prices a bit more constant than stuff like pro cameras (which just have to get more expensive because bloat like that wouldn't be tolerated for pro gear)

  • I think it's more something like if you don't confront bigotry it'll grow and eventually crush you.

  • Economics is a funny one as ultimately it's a focused & technical strand of anthropology (which I believe is considered a science by many) that people often incorrectly lump in with maths.

    Kinda tough for an academic to run meaningful experiments on an actual economy though beyond models and simulation. And as anyone who has watched a Gary Stevenson video or two will know, your average academic economist is pretty bad at models and simulations.

    Though I guess even bad experiments are still experiments

    Edit: typo

  • By a significant margin when compared to any other of the big-tech companies, buying hardware from Facebook seems like an unfathomably stupid idea.

    And this is not me saying hardware from any of the rest of them is a good idea.

  • You're definitely correct on the 32-bit dynamic range side of things, as that's more dynamic range than a human can perceive.

    However I feel like I read a little while ago, that a standard record industry 15 IPS reel-to-reel master tape (on some high quality tape formulation, I imagine) sits somewhere between 96khz and 192khz equivalent sample rate. Though there is every chance it was from Reddit or something. Do you happen to know if that stacks up?

  • Apparently acetylsalicylic acid is the chemical name, I think I'll stick with Aspirin

  • Data track/session is the term

    If it was done in the way where the data track didn't show up for an audio player, it was probably an Enhanced CD/CD plus. If anyone is backing up old CDs it's worth checking for this kind of stuff and saving it too. Given most people only ever rip the audio, loads of that stuff is going to end up as lost media before long
