Because expensive headphones tend to have drivers with higher impedance, meaning they produce less volume at the same current versus a lower impedance set.
That’s true for wired headphones, at least. For anything wireless, they have a secondary amplifier not in your phone, so then the phone really really has no idea.
Well now… TIL!
Fair – what I meant was more about the Teams binary kind of not being needed at all (you can use the web version without it). So having a Linux binary explicitly just seems a little weird, marketing aside.
I think MS assumes no one will use it. But having Linux builds of some of their software enhances their “MS loves Linux” marketing.
Teams is another example.
Kicad is up there with the paid options for electronic schematic drafting / PCB design. I don’t use a lot of KDE stuff since I also don’t use KDE, but Kicad is absolutely essential for me.
He’s obviously working for Big 586.
It’s kind of fascinating: the Steam Deck is the only device I can think of with a “halo effect” that doesn’t involve giving a company more money: the ecosystem it pulls you into is an open one, and you don’t even have to have purchased a Deck to jump in based on the idea alone.
I’ve really liked it. I’ve gone back and forth between Cosmic and their old Pop Shell on Gnome. I find the tiling system on Cosmic to be much better, especially on a multi monitor setup.
I also agree with another commenter that the file browser kind of sucks, but that’s a minor complaint right now.
Mandrake. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. But I did get it installed.
As others have said, this seems like an ill-formed question. Do you have reason to believe that politicians “cling to the idea that these voters can’t be reached”?
Yes, exactly this ^
While I can appreciate the ADS-B bit, it seems clear that the change to public registration would still negatively affect tracking.
The FAA is changing the rule which makes this information public. The FAA is fully controlled by the rich.
I’m not a Mac person at all, but I always, always loved the Pismo PowerBooks.
Sadly I think I waited too long. I can’t really justify one at all.
I love it.
Though some people will certainly take it wrong. The “iPhone is more expensive because it’s better” people will happily pay their Windows tax, assuming they’re even in the market for a Lenovo.
It was much easier to fake a resurrection back then.
I don’t disagree with this hot take. But the major difference is the sheer resources needed to have an LLM in place of a “do one thing right” utility like sed. In that sense, they are incomparable.
I’m not sure why any of this is surprising. The US was perfectly fine letting China manufacture all the things. That manufacturing know-how leads to design know-how. The desire by US corporations to keep wages low or eliminate US labor entirely to use outsourced manufacturing leads to this.
It isn’t just military hardware: it is products across entire industries. China is producing good ones, and even when they aren’t, they’re producing them at volumes the US could not dream of touching.
I don’t disagree, though I will add: there is a lot more to right-wing politics than being anti-trans. Shit is bad for all groups except the rich, and divide and conquer is a thing.
None of that is meant to belittle the trans experience at the moment. I am aware of the fact that they are, minimally, a kind of sacrificial lamb, and I can only hope that the situation improves.
Happens to me all the time on a VPN.
It isn’t every IP. I just change tunnels.
Dozens of us!!
…but this is actually good news. I’m glad to hear it.
