   Quite sure the microphones on any smart speaker or phone do not have the build quality to 'hear' near ultrasonic audio.

   There is no need to reply on Apple weather; there are many great alternatives - with far readable displays and a greater degree of accurate predictions. https://merrysky.net/forecast/wisconson/us

   Nope. They don't (spin at a constant rpm). Perhaps that's not so surprising; after all, it's not vinyl. Furthermore, varying rpm is explicitly mentioned in the headline post. Also explained here... https://www.repa

   This is a fair comment. May I add, broadsheet headlines also.

   Why would this work better as a daily game like wordle? I ask because I disagree. Visuals are far more infinite than guessing a 5 letter word with restricted choices. Chrono and Wordle are not comparable.

    "The Pergola is a popular spot for photo shoots and weddings - you can find information about using the venue for those purposes here" There goes the hidden gem! I never thought of it as hidden gem, maybe it still is.

    I searched the half familiar sentence, and now I can't get it out of my head (although, it will go, within the hour) again. I take some comfort that now and again even a colossal of HN will make mischievous remarks.

    I do, as everyone should, filter. I find his writing straightforward, moreso than the twisted language of an average Apple 'event'. Conspiratorial may sound sensational to some, but saying one thing and doing another is apt and pr

    Thank you. I much prefer Sneaks stance on Apple than eclectic light's. Both post enough useful public information to remind people that Apple are not as different to other giants in underhand software tech shenanigans. Eclectic often m

    Used this yesterday. This is a beautifully realised browser experience. Effortlessly adapts between computer and smart phone. Works as an interactive documentary, or educational tool at least. I don't remember credits, is it an in-hous

    Thank you. I'm hoping IRENE gets discussed in detail here. We will eek out someone qualified to elaborate on Laser Turntables. https://www.bl.uk/events/unlocking-our-sound-heritage-inspir...

    You continue to misrepresent my responses. Are you trolling? I did not say and was not 'specifically talking about bitrate difference'. Frequency range, bit depth, and whatever lossy algorithm is used, all play a role, is plain to

    The 'two factors' are not two factors. Frequency range, bit depth, and whatever lossy algorithm is used, all play a role. A lossless rip matches the original audio as stored on the CD. A lossy rip will commonly 'lose' be

    You make a valid point, except I really did mean to and did type 'accurate' and not sound quality. I do concur with your example of how they can sound the same compared with lossy.

    >your cd rips are 8-12x more accurate than anything streamed of Spotify?... >...How did you calculate a factor by which lossless is better than lossy? I specifically typed accurate, not better.

    This type of ripping, comparing to other rips (paranoia) for bit-for-bit error correction integrity is part of XLD for Mac et al. However, even as a full time audio person, I consider paranoia overkill, and in someways backwards - I want my
