Yes, thank you. 2.1 should have plenty of bandwidth, so unless there's some other limitation, it can probably handle 10 bit 444.

Anyone know if the cheap model can handle 4k60 444 10bit over HDMI? "4k 60hz" is almost meaningless without more information. There are some reddit threads where people have issues with 4k60 444 10b on the (now) previous gen mac m

Software is still developing at a pace that burdensome regulatory red tape would represent a completely unacceptable destruction of value. Defaulting to red tape as the mechanism to improve the quality of software is also very short-sighted

I spend part of my time in a rural area. Only in the last couple years was fiber even available near my house, and then it's a matter of $300/mo on a 3-year contract for 250mbps symmetric, plus the cost of running last-mile from t

This one isn't so interesting, as it's super easy to generate `e` in lots of different ways (such as the limit the expression is approximating). `e` is a very low-kolmogorov-complexity constant. The error term in the integral, on

The kolmogorov complexity of the provided integral is vastly lower than the >140 bits needed to naively represent the error term. Something else is going on here.
