I'm not sure it would, as the article seems to say that Sonos requires an ADTS container for the AAC audio, which YouTube doesn't offer. So the app takes an MP4 container, filters its contents to find the AAC audio blocks, then re

3.5mm is an analogue signal that can only output stereo. Its quality will be limited by the device it comes out of. SPDIF (both optical and coaxial) support sending multiple audio channels in their original encoding, to support surround sou

In most vehicles, airbag wiring is quite separate from other controls and just requires power to trigger. No CAN buses or higher levels of abstraction are involved. In this case, I expect the air bag module plugs straight in to the existing

I find that there are a couple of problems with vote-mute: - the damage has already been done before the vote gets called, and often the mute only applies to subsequent communications, so the initial abusive message still appears in the cha

While I appreciate the hard work that went in to this, it seems like it's solving the wrong problem. My home and work computers already have DNS addresses and valid TLS certificates for those addresses. It would be nice if Tailscale DN

FYI, if you're on Windows 10 or 11, you can use the Xbox Game Bar for screen recording. It's intended to capture game play, but it works with any running applications. It's often installed by default. https://suppo

Digital TV is where the content is sent as a digital video stream, rather than an analogue stream. This allows it to: - make better use of the available bandwidth, allowing for more channels to be broadcast or less radio spectrum to be used

There's an Adjust ClearType Text entry in the Start Menu that runs a wizard to tune how the anti-aliasing is configured. It asks you which options looks best.

I'm not sure about 4G, but certainly with some of the earlier variants it was relatively easy to make your local DIY network visible as 'foreign' roaming network to your phone with it's normal SIM.

I get annoyed with AV when it quarantines "Potentially unwanted software" like ProduKey. While it may be able to be used maliciously, that's not why I have it installed, and I do want it on my machine.

It would probably work better with a color stripe per feature, as a customer with an orange cable might not know that it includes all the features of a yellow cable and can be used in place of a yellow cable.

You can inspect the traffic to the API, but it only sends a hash prefix and returns a list of all matching hashes (k-anonymity). The hard work is done in the client, not the back-end. https://www.troyhunt.com/ive-just-launch

No, they pay you a salary based on agreed working hours, usually a 40 hour working week. If that wasn't the case, they'd be firing you for going home at the end of the day.

Why should the vehicle manufacturer need to be involved? As someone who owns an EV, why shouldn't I be able to create a Tesla account, link my credit card to it, and use the superchargers to charge my non-Tesla vehicle? The charging ne

iCalendar is a pretty nice format to use and well supported, but the trouble that you then need a website to host the iCalendar file. It adds more yak-shaving to the process.

It seems to also depend on the graphics card and possibly the monitor input used. DDC works fine from my desktop over DisplayPort from an nvidia GPU, but I can't seem to get it working from my laptop over HDMI from an Intel GPU.
