Everything since CD audio has been either the same quality or worse. Increasing the sampling rate does nothing but encode ultrasonics which are at best inaudible and at worst introduce additional harmonic distortion into the audible frequen

The spec isn't proprietary, you can download all 482 pages of it right here[1]. It's just that a USB controller needs firmware and none of the vendors making USB3 controller chips have open sourced their firmware. Most chip vendor

The biggest practical advantage I have found is that Linux has dramatically better filesystem I/O performance. Like, a C++ project that builds in 20 seconds on Linux takes several minutes to build on the same hardware in Windows.

How would they possibly rig the numbers on a particulate filter? The cheating was achieved through engine control software selectively disabling parts of the emissions control system when it detected testing was not occurring. You cannot us

Red Hat is going to keep maintaining X11 for at least the next 10 years (RHEL8 life cycle), I will be surprised if GTK2 hasn't already bitrotted into oblivion from other causes by then.

Electric vehicles and hybrids use regenerative braking from the motor for a lot of their stopping power. They do still need brake work but significantly less often (100-200K mile interval vs ~50K though there is considerable variance depend

I think most libraries offering this are doing it through Hoopla. It works fine though you can only play them in a browser and the video quality is roughly at the level of a DVD.

At least newer diesels are a lot better about particulates than the older ones, the EPA has mandated particulate filters since 2007 and they reduce them by ~85-95%. http://www.meca.org/regulation/us-epa-20072010-heavydu

The rate of fatal crashes is more than an order of magnitude higher than anything introduced in the past 30 years. The Concorde is the only thing that's worse. The A310 is closer than anything else at 1.35 fatal crashes per million mil

The same way they already force signing for iOS programs. I don't know the details but you can write iOS apps in C#, Java, and Python today so clearly this solution already exists.

They could require a paid Apple developer account to sign MacOS binaries just like they do with iOS (with the exception of those certs that expire after a week). I think they would be crazy to do it and don't really expect them to anyt

Yes, the 2/3/4 are all 64 bit. The Zero/Zero W are the same old 32 bit ARM11 hardware as the original Pi. Raspbian is still armhf but there are several aarch64 distros available (Arch, Fedora, Debian) for the recent Pi models

It's impossible to install Linux to the preinstalled SSD on any recent Mac, though on this one you can at least add your own additional storage and it probably won't be too hard to get Linux booting off that. Aside from the SSD th

Thank you, their website does not have any pricing information for the molds. Though according to the map on their website the nearest place to me that does the molds is a 5 hour drive away. I guess you could probably get most audiologists

Geekbench puts the Q6600 and existing A72 SoCs (that are clocked a bit higher than the Pi 4) directly on par at ~1500 single core score but it would certainly be interesting to see some detailed real world benchmarking between them.
