At grid scales, kW is a rounding error. Even MW is somewhat the decimal place, especially for a country as large as China.

Snake was my very first OpenGL program (well, past a cube). You learn quite a bit about the basics and why one more dimension is not always better. Fun times, this takes me back quite a bit. Definitely from the "what if" mindset,

Pretty much, yes. And they don’t have much as far as isolation goes. It’s a bit frightening honestly. It does unlock some interesting things to be sure, like sqlx’ macros that check the query at compile time by connecting to the database an

I was puzzled a bit, then realized they only handle schematics . Saying "PCB schematics" is weird. A schematic is just a representation of a netlist, something where text is more than fine since the graphical form is only for hum

Can you ring the same bell at the GTK and GNOME folks? The GTK4 thing with hamburger menus that replace everything is just a mess. I stumbled on nemo the other day while looking for nautilus. That… was a breath of fresh air: compact UI, men

I'm not. The situation is improving rapidly, and I'd expect the gap to close soon. I still have the windows install. And with an RTX 3090, framerate is not that much of a consideration for most games, especially since my main moni

Replying late, but yes, I have less trouble with older films. It is a mix of more articulate acting (worse on-set mics so actors spoke rather than mutter), and less over-the-top mixing. For current movies, some of the most legible are "

The few win11 I've touched were all on NVMe drives, but I'm pretty sure they're fast enough for a start menu. I mean, your gear should not be needed to get a responsive start menu. I'm curious, did you clean up what'

Considering I found the win10 start menu too slow, the w11 one does not stand a chance. But I'm hopeful from your comment, it shows that w11 is not the complete shitshow people make it to be, though the few times I used it on relatives

As an Arch (btw) user myself, yes, you're doing something wrong. Arch won't hold your hands to ensure everything required is installed, because many dependencies are either optional (you have to read the pacman logs) or just hidde

AFAIK this comes down a lot to NVIDIA not doing enough efforts for the Linux drivers. There is a pretty well documented and understood reason for the perf hit NVIDIA GPUs get on Linux. Honestly, considering where we came from, a 10-30% perf

That would be true, except even in calm scenes in movies it's an issue. Unless I turn the volume high enough, in which case music and sfx become neighbor-waking loud. To be clear: I'm not talking about scenes where characters spea

Yup, I definitely do agree those are wildly different beasts. But the end result is, the professional mixing is less enjoyable than amateur-ish youtube mixing. Which is a shame, really. Mixing is a craft that is getting ruined (imho) by the

I understand it perfectly well, yes. It is an audio mixing made for theaters with sound isolation so that it's absolutely possible to hear the dialogue. I have no trouble understanding the dialogue with the volume tuned up to what I wo

Welp we had no issues in ye ol days. When DVD releases were expected to be played on crappy TVs. Now everything is a theatre mix with 7.1 or atmos and whatnot. Yes we know how to mix for stereo. But do we still pay attention to how we do?

As mentioned elsewhere: no problem with youtube videos (even with hard accents like scottish) but a world of pain for tv shows and movies. On the same TV. Oh, and the youtube videos don't have the infamous mixing issues of "voices

I watch YouTube with internal TV speakers and I understand everything, even muddled accents. I cannot understand a single TV show or movie with the same speakers. Something tells me it's about the source material, not the device.

I had the same issue, turn on the enhanced dialogue option. This makes the EQ not muffle the voices and have them almost legible. I say almost because modern mixing assume a center channel for voices that no TV have.

Can we go back to articulate movies and shows? And to crappier microphones where actors had to speak rather than whisper? Thanks.

Yes, pretty much all treemap disk space tools I've used will perform color gradient grouping on boxes, with directories fitting in larger boxes. The box may not be drawn, but the inner boxes will align, visually making a larger box.

Debian 13 uses https://deb.debian.org by default. Even the upgrade docs from 12 to 13 mention the https variant. They were quite hostile for a while to https, but now it seems they bit the bullet.
