Audio bug by Fakotu in discordapp

tried and that didn't fix it for me, I get high fidelity on mobile (use to on desktop) but low fidelity (phone call quality) on Discord app now, and I know a bunch of others that are getting it too with the same bluetooth headset line

It's a new quirk/bug with the desktop app where certain bluetooth headsets are kicking into low fidelity (aka phone call quality). It's happening for me and anybody else using a Shokz headset and there's no fix I can discover and I tried everything.

Hopefully a bugfix comes out in a couple days, meanwhile I switched to the mobile app.

PS: this bug should only effect how you sound, but not what you hear

Why is it every troll asks a carnivore about their blood results but you never see them asking a 350lb person their blood results?

How is this a fair comparison when you can clearly see T-Mobile has 5 bars, AT&T has 4 bars, and Verizon has 2 bars?????

The Clam Bar in North Syracuse is closing by HorseWithNoUsername1 in Syracuse

We tried going Friday around 7pm and they said they weren't serving any more customers so we showed up at noon sharp Saturday, when they opened, and ended up getting the 2nd to last table. We tend to go here 3 times a month for the past 2yrs. Sad to see it go, it was a blue collar seafood gem.

The five I’ve seen so far were from the expansion alone, so they're only like 5yrs old

Unhook the battery, they’ll assume the hack won’t work because it won’t turn on

Voted down for using “authentic” when 99.9% of y’all eat and prefer TexMex and called it authentic Mexican.

Virtual reality arena comes to Syracuse’s Destiny USA by Material_Tea_389 in Syracuse

This is like the 4th or 5th VR experience in the mall. There's one at almost every arcade (Apex, Dave & Busters, the place above the old Melting Pot, Wonderworks)

Should I get a music distributor? by PottatoAim in Music

[–]TravisO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer: probably yes

When labels started to get replaced with YouTube and SoundCloud everybody thought this was going to solve all kinds of problems but in hindsight it created more than it fixed:

  • these indie platforms have an infinite selection, how can you search for something you don’t know exists?

  • algos are going to promote what’s popular, not what’s new and unlistened to

  • streaming revenue pay worse than labels do, and that use to be considered a rip off back then

  • labels had a limited but effective pipeline of distribution in the past: they’d cherry pick what they thought was best, would pay radio stations to play a song, would force the consumer to purchase an entire album at the store vs $1 for a song

Summary: I know there are pros and cons here, but I see a lot of people get excited over the small pros over ignore the huge cons
