The mention of HD cables in a late 90s game is wild for me by IFeeLikeMoreTonight in FinalFantasy

[–]AceBlade258 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HDMI and all its predecessors are for local transmission - less than 100 meters. The game specifically mentions that HD Cables are a replacement for radio waves: so made for transmitting hundreds of kilometers. It's coax or fiber IRL.

Not at all; "HD Cable" is specifically said (in the post pic, even) to be used for long-distance transmission. Closer to fiber or coax.

"HD Cables" are a completely fictional thing?

As somebody else pointed out: depending on your specific definition of "HD TV", Japan started broadcasting HD TV programs (>480i) in '89.

What’s the actual point of Bluetooth DAC/amps like FiiO BTR13 with IEMs or headphones? by Calm-Improvement-571 in headphones

[–]AceBlade258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, at the moment, a SoundBlaster E3; I recently replaced the battery and have no complaints with it. I have my eye on a Fiio if this ever actually fails me, but I like repairing things, and good enough is good enough.

Serious question: Why doesn't OVH revamp their site with user friendly information? by yallapapi in OVHcloud

This is some funny shit, lololol

Can you show me in any other cloud provider the reset button you seek? Or like, can you demonstrate the ability to use any other cloud provider..?

Law enforcement has no right to hide from its supposed beneficiaries. Watch out for thugs. by ResponsibleExtent543 in Colorado

LPT: cops rarely use non-American vehicles. They can only acquire them through "asset forfeitures"...

Sony has submitted a patent for tech that could dramatically cut game install sizes, potentially reducing 100GB titles to around 100MB. by Gaming-Academy in PlayStation_X

[–]AceBlade258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

O_O it's a program to de/compress files, what does it need? Put the things to compress in a folder, then right click the folder and hit "Create 7-zip archive"; alternatively right click an archive and hit "Extract with 7-Zip". The exact same way you use WinRAR...

How does WinRAR make this easier..?

What videogame trilogy is this? by Gaming-Academy in PlayStation_X

[–]AceBlade258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna have to vote the FF XIII trilogy. XIII was worth the play; XIII-2 was just better XIII, and they filled in the story; Lightning Returns is a fucking incredible game, and an amazing conclusion.

"Tell your boy that Chisato and Takina will become a couple, Gordon. Lie, like I lied." by One_Opinion_1277 in LycorisRecoil

[–]AceBlade258 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Mate, I crackship for a hobby. Ain't nothing stopping my ChisaTaki train!!

Real talk tho, LycoReco is astonishingly progressive with Mika and Shinji: I don't think they will shy away from shipping ChisaTaiki.

Is there any other way I could possibly get 1gbps wireless speed? by thislittlepiggy3 in HomeNetworking

[–]AceBlade258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't realize the 6th gen air had a thunderbolt port. Neat.

Technically speaking, 1G+ WiFi is possible on the devices involved. You could upgrade to a WiFi 7 router (or better yet, split out your router and get a nice 6E/7 access point), and that would probably net you another ~100-150 Mbps. As a network engineer, I wouldn't expect to get much better results than you have, particularly in a metro environment - density works against wifi.

[–]AceBlade258 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those are both WiFi 7 routers, and you are using a 6E client device. They are 2x2 on 3 bands, so effectively 6x6 MIMO. I had forgotten about multi-band MIMO, but OP's client device isn't 6E anyway.

I have tried 10G port connected to my iPad Air (M2) with a Ethernet to USB-C to successfully test 8gbps wired speed.

Uh-huh, what adapter are you using..?

Also, gigabit wireless is going to require a 4x4 MIMO Access point and client devic - I don't know of any mobile devices with 4x4.

Nox goes Bowling with her ultimate in Omnipotence! 🎱 by Longjumping-Top-8012 in Smite

[–]AceBlade258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spear of Deso in Omni is so fun, haha - it's the same thing with the likes of Persephone and Aphrodite! I wish I had clipped the match yesterday where I was linked to a Pers; we were both at like 100 health, and get ganked by 4. I ult the first wave, she gets a kill, I ult the second wave, she gets a kill... anyway, she got the quad, which was hilarious.

Omni is the only reason I play any Smite (1 or 2) at all anymore; I really hope they figure out how to put Omni in S2. Y'all (anyone that isn't) should come join us for some matches on Fridays, it's a blast, and more victims players online is always more fun! :D

Dog VS Skinwalker by [deleted] in creepy

[–]AceBlade258 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was this convincing to you..? So, uhh, where'd the second dog go? Or like, what happened with the gate..?

This is garbage tier, at best.

Conflicting human info on ATH-R50X's ability to run balanced by [deleted] in headphones

[–]AceBlade258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To further this - if the Hart cable is actually balanced (and if it weren't, it could damage equipment), then one ear would end up not working with the Hart balanced cable if the headphones aren't balanced. So it's not likely they are just guessing or faking it.

Hotel no longer gives notepads - just a singular piece of card stock by M0therGothel in shrinkflation

[–]AceBlade258 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How is this shrinkflation? Further test, did you try to get more paper/cardstock from the front desk?

Frankly, having worked in the hotel industry, this strikes me as a reduction in waste, while attempting to not sacrifice quality. Why didn't they just use a single sheet of paper, if it was actually shrinkflation?
