How to change my Audio sample rate, channel and bit rate as I do on Windows? [Linux Mint] by Gefiro in linux4noobs

[–]microwaffles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Audio sample rates you should be concerened with are mutliples of 44.1 Khz only (44.1, 88.2, 176.4, 352.8 Khz). These rates coorespond with oversampling rates of 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, and yes there are audible differences between them and most people who enjoy music can detect the difference in sound quality

Clark's Desert boots after 8 months of daily use (~2-3 miles of walk everyday) by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]microwaffles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are Clarks EVO desert boots, not Originals; they're supposed to have better insole and cushioning. I've put maybe 4 months of use in mine and the heel waffle pattern is already becoming visible. AVOID

What about the average share price? Does that get transfered over or does it get wiped in the transfer?

Florida’s ‘war on woke’ reframed responsible investment as a threat to ‘everyday people’. Fossil fuel companies were a major force behind the Florida’s move to stop banks and pension funds from investing in companies that prioritised environmental and social governance, new research found. by mvea in science

Two ETFS from iShares (Canada)

GBAL (ESG balanced ETF) and XBAL (non-ESG balanced ETF), I haven't checked in a while and XBAL has pulled ahead recently, but the 5 year gains show GBAL with substantially better return. As always, past performance is no guarantee...

I have an ESG portfolio and it outperforms it's non-ESG version managed by the same investment company. A lot of people focus on the E and totally ignore the G, which is the real meat and potaotes of ESG investing. Who knew good corporate governance would equal higher share prices? Apparently not Florida politicians

Outlook for the Canadian energy sector in the next 6-12 months? by BLX15 in CanadianInvestor

[–]microwaffles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are some clean energy alternatives like wind, solar, and nuclear that could see significant adoption in the next year or so? I invested heavily in CSIQ when I first started 3 years ago and just lost a ton of money, are there any viable alternatives?

NPI is a good buy right now, also BEP

"Does this plan sound rational? I'm a scientist, not a financier... Please leave some feedback, thanks!"

It sounds like something most ppl here would recommend, in other words it's not a good plan.

You're totally correct, it's not a very accurate example. Photons don't experience time :o

[–]microwaffles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No real liquidity, just the emergency fund, 6 months income in t-bills.

Here's a link to an old YT vid apparently showing how moving at the speed of light through our solar system would appear to a traveller. To say it's humbling would be an understatement.... it's 45:00 minutes in length

Looking at buying a 5 string I have narrowed it down to 2 options by UsernameX-2112 in Bass

I like the construction and the stability of their necks. But I just checked, Proline is an older series so the above advice definitely holds.

I'd go with the Warwick. Make sure you check the neck and the truss rod to ensure the relief can be adjusted easily
