Thanks, I keep all monitors (laptop or not) at arms length for work/reading, but for gaming or other immersive activities a 13in screen needs to be closer to match the experience of a full size monitor

Never heard of nexstand but it looks suboptimal for keeping the small laptop screen as close as possible to your eyes My preferred design is like https://amzn.eu/d/0KB8nGM (2x U shapes of metal), which lets you have th

I expected it to mean 45% NTSC.. panel gamuts are usually specified in marketing as either 45% NTSC, 100% sRGB, or some % of adobe rgb/display p3 for wide gamut Not sure why they dropped the NTSC, maybe consumers have cottoned on to NT

> 45% colour gamut $100 for an e-waste monitor is poor value, for that money you can get a portable monitor with full sRGB, high refresh rate, etc

The film secret sauce is usually varying temperature/hue in different regions/brightnesses of the image. The 2005 digital example exhibits this via red/magenta being excessive in the shadows, but falling off in brighter areas

A background thread performing blocking io is an implementation detail not a bug. Other filesystems don’t have/need that sort of bookkeeping, so if a block device stalls badly enough to trigger these warnings then it will be attributed

Ye that's what I meant when I said side-by-side. You can't use the same pattern matching that your eyes/brain do when an image instantly swaps, as audio is always temporally moving to be heard at all. Instantly swapping betwe

Maybe not fundamentally flawed but audio ABX testing is focused towards short term memory and opinion (especially in unskilled subjects) than I would like. I don't think there is any right answer to audio blind tests. I'll trust a

I think these kind of blind listening tests are fundamentally flawed. For example in the graphics realm (games, video encoding, colour science, etc) all it takes is a momentary black screen between two comparison images to make it vastly mo

How does this differ from rclone mount and its vfs/caching system, possibly combined with mergerfs or rclone union for cache tiering?

The more we abstract things, treat servers like cattle, and lose low level knowledge, the more things like this will happen You shouldn’t have to try to reproduce this in a test environment - your infrastructure should allow profiling in li

Even the 250W 2080Ti (+150W Intel) is oppressive to be in the same room with during warmer months. I know it probably won't be, but it should be a hard sell in countries that don't have air conditioning as standard. Not to mention

LCDs are more accurate in low light, but OLED can reproduce readable text at lower brightness from its higher contrast Swings and roundabouts… for some people the grey tinge and messed up gamma curve of low brightness OLED is unacceptable.

But on the other side of the coin naive GPU acceleration ends up with poor latency despite ‘not dropping a frame’ 5ms input latency is a dubious claim, what really matters is input to photon / end-to-end latency

A lot of mitigation actions but nothing to really stop it happening again: a fail safe system in their boot start driver. Bad programming and QA caused the issue, but bad design allowed it to happen

As someone outside the ecosystem it is bananas to me. My only exposure to Vercel is endless crypto fake airdrop scams hosted on their free tier. They need to stop hosting their free tier on their main trademark (subdomain of vercel.app), or

CoreELEC for me - the Amlogic chips are much more capable than the average Pi/PC/SBC when it comes to video, with features like quality deinterlacing (as good as modern TVs), HD audio passthrough, Dolby Vision, etc. Plus LibreELE
