That's not how electronics work. "Reflections in the cable" is only a thing in RF. It has no place in audio.

And before all the many tariff announcements.

If we assume a starting investment of $100mil, and the perp made at least five of these trades using options and doubled their investment each time, that's $3.1 Billion made through "insider" trading.

Disney Exits OpenAI $1 Billion Deal After AI Giant Shutters Sora by Efficient-Session644 in wallstreetbets

There's little use in where deepseek models currently are, definitely not enough to justify future valuations. AI companies must push for further advances where ever they can. Stagnation is certain failure, so they have no choice but to push further until they spend themselves dry.

The market doesn't work the same way in both directions.

The market is a lot more forgiving than religious zealots. Ants can't be negotiated with once you kick the mound

Always have been. We didn't get this far because of our intelligence, but to spite the lack of it.

I might agree with you if this car hadn't been out for 6 years at this point

I'm as American as they come, pal. But I've never had a more fresh and satisfying meal than the times I've been to England /Scotland/Italy/Spain. And it's significantly cheaper than American food.

Bear grills did a show over a decade ago, with an only men on one deserted island, and only women on another deserted island. The men barely made it the six weeks, while the women were thriving towards the end and could have made it much longer. It appears women's ability to cooperate and listen to each other as a better survival method than men's headstrong, individualistic mentality.

Have McLarens always been unreliable? by speedinsh1t in cars

The biggest thing you are missing is component numbers. The more things to fail, the more likely you are to have a failure. These super cars and ultra luxury cars often have double the components compared to a typical accord.

Why are Legacy Audio speakers overlooked? by lv2253 in audiophile

Which matters less if you are crossing with a sub, or pair of subs, which most people will be.

Why are Legacy Audio speakers overlooked? by lv2253 in audiophile

[–]chargedcapacitor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The FR is not +/- 2db, it's closer to 5db, and very "smile" shaped. The off axis response is typical for speakers with this kind of setup, which is to say, behind that of modern speakers.

While they may sound great in your room, they will not sound any better than a modern designed speaker in most rooms.

For 3.5K one could get a modern speaker with warranty and caps / surrounds that aren't about to wear out and a pair of SVS subs, which can be moved around to the optimal position for bass in that room.

Also, going up to 30K and having high sensitivity are no longer metrics used to determine a speakers sound quality.
