Would you refuse to buy headphones that have an integrated amplifier and dac and a USB connector, or would you refuse to buy a dedicated amp/dac with which you could use any headphones?

>Actually it would just mean only supporting wireless bluetooth headphones from now on... Why? USB DACs exist. I use one all the time with my apple stuff.

To clarify I'm talking about a double significant amplitude limit, which for a given typical three hour sea state is the mean of the highest third of double amplitudes. Does anyone know the reasonably precise location of the landing? I

That's true but there still have to be people coming aboard to seafasten the rocket. To my knowledge it's not welding itself to the deck.

It simply being on a barge at sea is still going to subject it to a corrosive environment. Especially if it encounters a lot of wind and waves on the trip back.

That's insane. In offshore heavy lift we stick to barge motion limits around 2 degrees. Maybe we're just far more risk averse, but I cannot fathom how this would work with 8-9 degrees rotation. Even being on a ship with 2-3 degree

I would think better than bigger is more stable; instead of a conventional barge, they could use a semi-submersible or some other optimized hull form to ensure a more favorable motion response in a given sea area. I think I remember reading
