I suggest reading James Muldoon's "Love Machines" for a thorough answer to your question.

Helsinki has many DCs connected to the district heating network, but it isn't realistic in places that don't have an existing network as creating one in the first place is a huge political/nimby issue. Amsterdam has been tryi

this is for teams where you don't want to create passwords or keep track of ssh keys for everyone by hand. it greatly simplified our server usage as we can simply ssh user@machine and it just works. you can create access controls for i

For anyone who misses the Second Life-style camera controls in Blender, I made this during the weekend: https://github.com/miunau/blender-secondlife-camera-addon It makes navigating 3D spaces so much easier with keyboa

You're correct, with Realtek AC97 devices the resampling used to sound absolutely horrendous. Like they picked the worst possible algo. It's not as big of an issue these days though.

Compressors destroy dynamic range. The idea is to normalize, not limit.

This is solved by using dvh (or svh) instead of 100% for height in the CSS.

There are no financial or career incentives to optimise existing, working things in these institutions. The structures which these large companies use are for people working on new things, so that's what we get. Making office faster do

We've used the Tado system with a central boiler and smart radiator knobs for a few years. It's worked fine and hooks up to Home Assistant and can do the things you describe. I'm sure there are some alternatives.

Yeah, there are loads of cables, converters etc. that I can't get even from Amazon. Aliex has been the only place.

James Sharman has been getting quite advanced with his homebrew cpu. He's got audio and VGA working too and was demonstrating a spinning 3D cube recently. https://www.youtube.com/@weirdboyjim

Why not start supporting Asahi financially, if you aren't already?

It happens a lot in creative fields. I personally get depressive after putting an album out, and I know I'm not alone in that based on discussions with other musicians. Something about being in the mode of making something for so long,

I agree with the value of not wanting to participate. But your reasoning for denying individualism is myopic. Do you only count the ones that have words printed in 16 point type using a standard layout as books? There are all kinds of layou

This goes for European countries as well. Even well-educated people, from whatever country locals deem undesirable at that moment, in general do not get the chance to work in jobs that suit their education. Sometimes these people have benef

They are hitting the plexiglass in front of the camera and crabs, so I assume it's nothing interesting to look at science wise.

I was using a netbook with a comparable CPU as a work machine around that time. Using the web with it wasn't fun back then either, on Windows or Linux. I don't think there's any point in time when these underpowered processor

You're arguing statistics and simultaneously need the difference between "median" and "average" explained to you. Sorry if I don't regard you as an authority of any kind.

by miunau 2y ago
Curious conclusions. Which data do you base this on? US median income is 5th in the world. There's Luxembourg, Norway and Switzerland before it. Consumer electronics are quite similarly priced in both places once you take sales tax int

They still kind of exist, but now in the form of crappy ten-dollar knockoff handheld gaming devices that go into e-waste after the first 15 minutes.

How do you deal with large files? After about a thousand lines in a file, it starts to cough for me. Forgets that some functions exist and makes up inferior duplicate ones.

Could do worse than investing in some reels in this climate. At least they're fungible.

You jest, but R2R is what some audiophiles are generally on about as being the bees knees, and has been getting popular again. I like physical music, but the prices on those is too much. I have heard some really good sounding reels, though

Sorry.. but a sales team for 20 album sales a week? That's just what regular artists making a living do. Small labels too, majority of which are one-person operations. At $20 a pop (cheap these days) that's $20k a year in sales, w

It's not an apples to apples comparison, really. Tape is desirable for its nonlinear (read: saturation) characteristics, and those can't really be measured in a very comparable manner by taking a regular digital domain bit depth a

Perhaps it didn't cross your mind that I expressed it in a stilted manner on purpose? What a weird thing to get hung up on anyway
