Generally speaking “you” do not calibrate a measurement mic. I’m restricting the discussion to measurement mics because that’s pertinent to the OP and because mics have all sorts of frequency responses designed into them on purpose. Measur

Oh my. I mean, if this guy is happy with his results then more power to him. However, this write up is a textbook case of the blind leading the blind. I don’t even know where to begin. The classic smiley faced EQ, equating spectograph w

I think you are vastly over estimating the size of 80K USD in $100 bills. Each bundle of $10K is about 1/2” thick. You can easily carry 80K in 100’s without looking out of place.

I still play Threes regularly. It’s super accessible but still remains challenging after years of play. I even occasionally still set a new high score.

> Except it can't, a 100 acre wind farm can produce energy indefinitely while an oil well will eventually run dry. Perhaps more true in that the wind (as far as we know) won’t run out but wind turbines do have a limited lifespan. A

For this to be a valid pedagogical technique it has to be applied properly for the intended student. As described in the linked article for middle elementary aged students it seems effective. I can easily imagine my own middle elementary

Except that a person who is literally blind found it disrespectful. People say all sorts of stupid stuff that they don’t intend to be disrespectful but which is. When it’s pointed out by someone the appropriate response is to change your b

Saw a falcon launch at SLC-40 from banana creek last February. Unlike what the article said there was no fee beyond entrance to KSC. Had no problem finding a good seating spot in the bleachers for my 7 person group about 45 minutes prior

I agree, more of a feel good/marketing piece. Bad electric coming into a system can cause damage so protection circuits are built in to prevent that damage from happening. I wonder how many UPSs kicked in and also lowered demand. Wha

Studio Six Digital makes the very useful app AudioTools. They test all iOS devices to create generic profiles for the built in mics. They’ve found them to be very consistent which is kind of remarkable for a consumer cell phone device. Mo

Reminds me of my first time reading the Yamaha Sound Reinforcement Handbook when I was just getting into the live sound field. Read it again a year later after a lot of time in the trenches and the things that were gibberish at first now m

I thought Escape from Lucania and by Roberts and No Shortcuts to the top by Viesturs were both good as well. I did not care for Roberts personal memoir On the ridge between life and death.

Annapurna A Woman’s Place and Breaking Trail. The first is about the namesake first American expedition to the top which she led, the second is her memoir. Both great reads, thankfully lacking much of the big headed bravado of other mount

This reminds me of my favorite IT gear conversion when someone turned a SGI challenge into a mini fridge. I have a fondness for all things SGI (Irix era) due to labs full of Indys during my college years. I was pretty surprised to find tha

Yes. It never said that the screw falling out would have been ok. The effect would have been the same where the flap ground connection would have found its way home via the feather system. Loose vs completely gone are just two points on

It’s amusing when the author says “when the phone crashes.” My 2022 Subaru Outback head unit frequently crashes or is really unresponsive. My iPhone never crashes. Car infotainment systems are garbage. I’d never buy a car without CarPlay.

I got sick of repairing and rebuilding my in-laws windows PC about 7 years ago and moved them over to the largest ipads that were available at the time. It was 100% the right move. I haven't had to fix their computer in the past 7 ye

My thoughts exactly. If feature X is important enough to do all the silly workarounds they did then why would you in the first place choose a provider that didn’t support feature X? The choice of IPV4 + shenanigans vs IPV6 seems pretty str

Yeah. I was out of town hiking in Wyoming at the time and was told it was the 35E bridge by a passing hiker who relayed the news to me. My mom drove the 35E bridge twice a day. I couldn’t hike out and call home fast enough. I didn’t kno

There’s a whole class of people working in manufacturing who are lining up to disagree. I recall seeing a woman on a TV show once who had been doing the same job in a sausage plant for 40+ years. She wasn’t a beaten down slave, she just f

My background is systems operation. The exception I could see to this is when there are rewards/incentives/etc for uptime or non-change-window uptime. Usually this would be coupled to meeting the goal of 4 9's or 5 9's
