I genuinely wonder the same actually. Seems like there would go even more engineering into making a speaker that is "true" and not coloring the sound as one expects from their monitors.

Well I guess it's not the wooden box of a speaker that costs $2000-$30000 (normal price range for consumer Hi-Fi speakers). Replacing the speaker drivers would be more like replacing everything within the body of a car.

Wouldn't rubber dry out over time? If you pay for a good set of speakers you probably want them to last for decades.

It's not fully clear from the article if that 20% didn't manage to keep the housing at all or if it was just that they didn't manage to pay their own rent. To me 80% sounds awesome. There are some people in this world that ju

At least a CBDC would allow central banks to print money without also creating debt – because really the debt driven economy is the reason we keep ending up in these crises.

This is what you get if you learn everything by just googling exactly what you need for the moment. Reading proper books and RFCs are underrated these days.

This is deceptive. Biopolymers or not per definition biodegradable. Just because you make plastics from plants don't make it biodegradable and it's worrying that people have started to think this – maybe from deceptive marketing.

Especially since the old cookie banner law was abolished with GDPR. The whole cookie banner thing has technically nothing to do with GDPR and is the industries own perverted invention for "getting consent".

According to Wikipedia there is about 422 commercial reactors in the world and so far in history about 18 meltdowns. So statistically 4% of reactors will have a meltdown. To me that is crazy, and does not sound safe. Even if these accidents

I don't honestly understand how the Clearview thing would make any difference. The burden of proof is on the prosecutor right? So in court they would need to present proof that he was in the front seat, and if he wasn't there woul

Now the article was only talking about twitter and social media, but I can't help react on the title since there really is no evidence at all of internet wanting to be fragmented. In fact it's just the opposite. - Not even the mos

Well we are certifying authenticity but we do it with the trust of the CAs. But if we can't trust the CAs maybe there are other authorities we can trust more, or that we at least can share the trust between several parties. But I agree

I think that a good system would be that the key can be signed by multiple parties. For example if you are running a web shop, your certificate could be signed by Visa if you accept card payments, by your registrar to prove that you own the

It's like when you go to the cheap lunch restaurant that have 70 items on their menu vs the fine dining place that has a set three course menu for the evening. Quantity signals cheapness.

Texture is a visual ingredient just like color or form – and if you see it this way it's nothing strange adding it in post. Basically any analog method of visual reproduction adds some form of texture as a byproduct, but not digital sc

Fun fact! Italic typefaces was originally not designed for emphasizing text but as a way so save paper since the slanting allows the letters to sit tighter.
