  • Of course there technically is a difference, you can easily see it with any tool that can render a spectrogram. Humans cannot hear this difference though, so there is no point in streaming the extra data.

  • What equipment do you have? My main setup is a Motu M4 with two Adam Audio T5V and multi point room correction done in REW. For headphones I'm mostly using DT 770 Pro 80 Ohm (there's different drivers depending on the impedance and these sound warmer). I also have a sizeable collection of IEMs with ratings up to a B on the crin list.

    I can hear sounds up to about 16k. I'm allergic to bad audio. I cannot differentiate good lossy encodes from lossless audio.

  • So in other words you may as well have guessed randomly and gotten the same result. I'm against lossless streaming because my bandwidth is a limited resource and it will take longer to load the same track with higher bitrate. As there is no audible difference, there is also no practical reason to choose it.

  • Which is filled to the brim with snake oil advertisers who want to separate gullible people from their money.

  • Sounds like you just want it because it is possible. If that's the case, I'm fine with that. There is however no perceptible difference in sound, ABX tests showed that many times.

  • You can hear a difference between 320 kbps mp3/aac/vorbis and lossless? Can you prove that with an ABX test?

  • I might be out of the loop. Who wants this exactly? There is no audible benefit from lossless audio. I rip all my music to lossless files but that's archival. There's nothing to archive with streaming services.

  • Some are absolutely super aggressive, they're just not usually kept by beekeepers.

  • This is the type of micro optimization I just don't want to care about. It's cool research, don't get me wrong, but I'm just gonna go about my day how I feel like.

  • What is the PWM frequency with DeckSight? I'm pretty sensitive to that and my regular OLED model sadly strains my eyes within an hour. Maybe something like this could be a better alternative for me.

  • Naja YouTube hat bis auf die Kommentarfunktion quasi keine sozialen features. Man man sich dort keine privaten Nachrichten schreiben oder "miteinander befreundet" sein. Trotzdem sind die Inhalte natürlich häufig problematisch.

  • Boost worked best for me after comparing a few apps for my phone. Coming from Relay it wasn't a 100% fit but good enough.

    I don't use Lemmy much on desktop because I find all of the frontends lacking in comparison to old Reddit with RES. However Tesseract is my preferred frontend when I am on desktop.

  • I've heard about that but haven't noticed it myself. It does sound annoying.

  • Yeah the control panel revisions took some getting used to, but now I think it's not so bad. I know where to find everything but I can see how it's frustrating for others. What's most important to me is that I have local admin rights on my work PC and can customize it to my liking. Many companies lock their devices down heavily, and I don't want to deal with that.

  • I'm currently sticking to Windows 10 on my private machines but already on 11 on my work computer and it's fine with an alternative start menu. I'm also looking forward to the better HDR features on 11.

  • No, I don't want Linux or any other OS. I perfectly know my way around with Windows and so many of my regular tasks depend on tools made for Windows. I have used Linux desktop in the past and have many friends and co-workers who use it as their main OS, but it's just not for me.

    Besides of course this recall stuff gets blown way out of proportion like every time Microsoft makes a bad move. All of my computers don't even support recall and when they eventually do, I'll just disable it in one of like four possible different ways.

  • Probably this ball of water and dirt we're living on.
