i agree, I feel the same with my studio monitors in my home office. The issue seems to be that flat frequency response with a full range is extremely hard to achieve with IEMs, there is something to the room and distance transfer function t

I agree, this is a bit out of date, and more on the sub 15$ side of things, as far as the past few years are go. I love Moondrop products, they don't have anything like a piercing treble. Love my Moondrop x Dusk, Blessing 2, and just g

Yeah, I’m sorry, you’re bringing this down below elementary schools logic adequacy levels. No, overlap in functionality is not the definition of competition. Mugs and cups have overlap in functionality, it doesn’t mean they’re competing in

If you don’t care about competitive smartphones, why do you care about smartphones or phones at all?

Every vendor that is not Apple already supports Android. Even the ones that don’t want to have the GSuit built in, and some of them care about privacy, while some don’t. A smartphone is comprised of more than one cpu, and there are propriet

No other car looks like a dumpster on wheels, and thats why no one is going to break their neck starring at one, which is what sells.

Yeah, it might read like that, but it also is how I feel. If I was running a crypto farm, or if I was doing security research, I would have different levels of concerns. But, in fact, hosting a competitive gsmijg website, I did experience c

That is also true. That’s a good reason to block certain IP segments.

Yeah, that makes sense, sometimes orgs or audits have requirements.

I’m not trying to convince anyone, I’m trying to understand what drives sone security focused people to make things more complicated and harder without practical justification. So, are you NSA? How many servers have you lost to the password

by Demiurge 2y ago
Really, what are the chances if you have a decent password and 3 attempts per 24 hours? Why would I take something %0.000000001 likely and make it %0.0000000000000000000001 likely if there is an added risk of %0.001 my house burns down an

Generally speaking, you’re right, but I have servers I want to be able to access from anywhere, because I support some app running on them. Until 1password agent setup, having keys only and password disabled was too difficult, and yet, also

Why is it so amazing? Sounds more complicated than fail2ban. I've been installing fail2ban for decades on countless servers, using decent passwords, and have never had SSH get brute-forced. It’s anecdotal, but if you’re getting blocked

Most people? There is a Django-history module, and yet it’s not nearly as popular as Django. I’ve used this on two out of 100 projects. No one ever actually wanted the history, it’s there for “just in case of an audit” and compliance, which

I never hear people talk about ObjC in same breath as they talk about Simula, Smalltalk. There was also Object Pascal. I think these predate Objective C, and changed the game before Objective C. So I think it makes Objective C more of Micha

Massive overhead of multiprocessing? How have I not noticed this for tens of years? I use coroutines and multiprocessing all the time, and saturate every core and all the IO, as needed. I use numpy, pandas, xarray, pytorch, etc. How did thi

If Rails could be written in Python, I would probably prefer that. Ruby has too much of Perl. If I didn't choose to write a critical piece of software in Perl, which caused me numerous sleepless nights hunting for a missing quote or ot

That was a fun game, I loved the demo. I think some of the extrapolation might have also inspired optimizations made in CPMA mod for Quake3, which to this day, I think, has the best netcode of all games. You can actually compete with 100 pi

Right, the NFS/CIFS support writing blocks, but S3 basically does HTTP get and post verbs. I would say that these concepts are the defining difference. To call S3 a filesystem is not wrong in abstract, but it’s not different than calli
