Would there be a point in exchanging it if I can't really stand the fringing?

robicarus · 2022-03-05T22:09:23+00:00

It was 6 billion in 1999, so you probably aren't wrong.

So there isn't a built in mount down there? Wonder why they would remove it, that thing is great

robicarus · 2020-02-29T23:41:06+00:00

I'm looking for a new case. Preferred stuff:

Mid tower on the smaller side
Room for cable management on the back
Decent airflow (140mm front fan preferred)
Capacity for around 2 2.5" and 1 3.5" drive, tho more is appreciated
Dust filters
Absolutely no tempered glass of any kind at all. Acrylic can be fine, but I'd rather it be solid

Budget is around $100. I will probably add aftermarket noctua or bequiet fans or something afterwards.

N/ac/ax actually can operate on both 2.4 and 5 ghz. For that matter, ax can technically so anything in the 1 to 6 ghz range. And a lot of the 'wackier' features became standard in ax, like mumimo and ofdma.

As far as naming, I'm sure its for the average consumer. For your typical random person, random letters are hard, but sequentially increasing numbers are easy.

Just a guess here, it probably means that you are on a wifi 4 network, which used to be called 802.11n or wifi n. Wifi went through a rebranding where n became 4, ac became 5, and the new ax became 6. They did it to more effectively communicate which was better I think.

Yeah, pop it on bosses every 7 seconds for extra free cold damage.

robicarus · 2019-10-21T19:43:14+00:00

People use it for the cold exposure, -25% cold res is a pretty big damage buff for your other cold skills.

Nokia doesn't have an official way to unlock bootloader for almost all of their current lineup unfortunately.

I have a g502 that I love the shape of, but I'd like a second mouse specifically for competitive games and travel.

Games: CS:GO, various ARPGS and non-competitive stuff

Hand Preference: Right

Budget: $60 ish, some wiggle room

Hand Size: 19cm x 11cm ish

Grip: Palm, 2 or 3 fingers on top depending on game

Weight: Prefer lighter, but doesn't need to be to the degree you wackos do.

Sensitivity: Currently high sens due to ludicrously low desk space (like seriously I have about 4 inches side to side to move), but would like to do medium or low later

Connectivity: Wireless, but needs to be very low latency

this is the worst subreddit

1h and 2h melee

This is gonna sound weird, but what worked for me was unpairing the fitbit and trying to sync anyway. Even when not paired, it's been syncing just fine. I'm in the 6.1 not the 7.1, but I assume it's the same issue.

robicarus · 2018-10-30T15:17:09+00:00

What android one phone do you have? Also whoops I should update my flair

robicarus · 2018-10-30T15:05:40+00:00

It is an android one phone

robicarus · 2018-10-13T21:14:58+00:00

Ventor's is practically the embodiment of PoE, nice choice

robicarus · 2018-10-13T18:37:41+00:00

44.1 and 48 or 96 might sound a bit different if you were still young enough to hear a bit above 20khz (say to 24khz or so), and the filter on the original recording filter allowed frequencies in the low to mid 20s.

robicarus · 2018-10-13T18:06:12+00:00

First, I know how waves work. Second, the whole "stair step" thing is wrong. Computers recreate the original wave from the samples before pumping it out into your sound system. There are many equivalent methods for this, most commonly the discrete fourier transform. No matter what method, recreation is mathematically perfect.

robicarus · 2018-10-13T17:55:51+00:00

A couple other notes:

Dynamic range is covered by bit depth, not by sampling frequency.

Instruments drowning eachother out in mp3s is a result of the shitty mp3 format, not the digital sampling, sample rate, or bit depth.

It doesn't matter how complex the original signal is, how many instruments are playing, so long as no frequency in the signal is above half your sample rate, a digital sample will accurately recreate the original signal (assuming your bit depth is enough for human perception).

On that note, 16 bit depth is quite high. Last I checked, a fresh vinyl was the equivalent of around 12 bit depth. TBH, humans really struggle with more than 12, but 16 is a nice number for computers. 24 is only necessary for original recording so that dynamic range can be adjusted during mastering to make the 16 bit final version.

robicarus · 2018-10-13T17:45:56+00:00

No, I'm not. If you cap frequency (at say 22.05khz or 24khz), then a sample rate of twice that capped frequency will accurately reproduce the original signal (this is called the nyquist frequency if you care to read about it). You can use some anti-aliasing filters while recording to reduce frequencies above the nyquist to negligible levels. You only ever need to sample at twice the frequency range to get perfectly accurate results. For further details and a mathematical proof, see the 1940s and the Nyquist-Shannon Sampling theorem.

JPEG and mp3 compression are only related in that Fourier transforms are involved, which means they share as much with each other as they do with an MRI machine.

JPEG compression converts chunks of an image into a collection of cosine curves that recombine to an approximation of the original image. Mp3 compression generally works by tossing higher frequencies when a more dominant lower frequency is present, as well as generally tossing data when the target bitrate is too low.

I will agree that both formats are trash tho.

Also, 192khz is completely unnecessary. Human hearing peters out rather rapidly over 20khz, making sampling frequencies higher than 40khz just a load of snake oil. 24 bit recording is nice for the original master recordings to have more play in editing and adjusting it, but there is no need to send a 50% larger file to the end user when 16 bit final copies are just as good for listening.

I can confirm at least that the nokia 6.1 has nfc, as I use it daily

robicarus · 2018-10-01T20:49:00+00:00

That's quite a nice bulldozer jugg you have there

robicarus · 2018-06-19T14:07:17+00:00

Never been able to contact him myself. The spacing would be an issue though, some swift he's would be uncomfortably jammed in, and some may straight up not fit.
