[02:13] DaemonFC So I've just started batch transcoding to that. [02:14] DaemonFC I doubt anyone will ever do a lot better. [02:14] DaemonFC MP3 could allegedly do this, but it didn't.

[02:15] MinceR might as well use FLAC, then :> [02:16] DaemonFC I've tested Opus extensively. It's not much more difficult to decode than MP3 is. Even in 2009, most hardware MP3 players were not using a devoted hardware codec, so it has no particular technical advantage on those if you switch to Rockbox and bring in Opus support. [02:17] DaemonFC MP3 used to have the argument that everything else would run your battery down faster even if the codec itself was a lot simpler just because MP3 "cheated" by having hardware decode. [02:17] DaemonFC MP3 is ridiculous for a lot of reasons. [02:17] DaemonFC It does things wrong just because they could get more patents. [02:18] DaemonFC There's a lot of undefined behavior forcing 2-3 different ways to do something, or something that's horribly inefficient but that's the only way to do it (like seeking, which is a total hack). [02:18] DaemonFC Apple broke seeking because they just assume that you'll always use Constant Bitrate.

[02:25] DaemonFC So it's not as big of a disaster as it was when they were pushing their own codecs really hard. [02:25] DaemonFC It plays FLAC too I think.

[02:27] MinceR they finally deprived failfox of every advantage it had over crashium [02:27] MinceR and then made it even worse [02:27] MinceR good fucking job, mozilla.

[02:40] DaemonFC It competes well with most systems I've heard that are 5-6 times the size. [02:40] DaemonFC The compactness is the main selling point, but it's easy to forget you're listening to a clock radio. [02:41] DaemonFC I've had a clock radio about this size before and it was just...meh. [02:42] DaemonFC They were good enough as a clock radio to wake you up in the morning or listen to while you were cleaning the bedroom out. [02:42] DaemonFC But it wasn't something you'd enjoy in place of a Hi-Fi system. [02:43] DaemonFC https://www.vice.com/en/article/4xap3d/the-story-of-the-bose-wave-the-stereo-system-built-for-the-infomercial-era [02:43] TR Bot The Story of the Bose Wave, the Stereo System Built for the Infomercial Era [02:44] DaemonFC Yeah, I used to see Bose infomercials on the TV late at night while I was over at my first ex's house and I was like "Fuck, $899 for a clock radio?". [02:44] DaemonFC They've not only gone way down in price, they've gotten a lot better. [02:44] DaemonFC I went into a Bose store in 2002 and didn't remember being all that impressed. [02:44] DaemonFC There was "a lot of sound" coming out of it, but it was more overpowering than enjoyable. [02:45] DaemonFC In fact, it was so bad I was like "They should stick to ambushing people over the TV. That way it takes effort to return the damned thing.". [02:46] DaemonFC People tend to say they like something when they have no choice or feel pressured to fit in. Because the alternative is to admit that they got had or go against opinions in ways that draw the ire of their peers. [02:46] DaemonFC Of course, "find new peers" is an option. [02:47] DaemonFC Starbucks makes okay coffee. It's not bad coffee. I'd never go in there and pay $6.99 for it except maybe once or twice a year. [02:47] DaemonFC They sell an expensive "lifestyle". [02:48] DaemonFC I'm guessing mom won't be doing that now either. [02:48] DaemonFC She can thank that damned rotten landlord of hers that she was furious at me for insulting on Facebook a few years ago over one of his "immigrants should get out of our country" posts. (Trump voter) [02:49] DaemonFC No, I'm not the reason he did this to her. [02:49] DaemonFC He did it to all his tenants because he could and they don't have many other options because he and his business partner own half the apartments in the town now. [02:50] DaemonFC Fucking crook. [02:51] DaemonFC If you don't like Trump and you're not a Neo-Nazi, then you're kind of persona non grata in the Republican Party (at least at the national level, increasingly locally too). [02:51] DaemonFC I'll be surprised if Richard Irvin pulls off this election, but he's saying what he has to in order to have a shot in a blue state. [02:54] DaemonFC Starbucks is in big trouble. [02:54] DaemonFC This economy is falling apart, everyone is having their rent and groceries jacked up. [02:54] DaemonFC Their workers are finished with the low wages and want labor unions.

[02:56] DaemonFC Anything would be better than a "church" ran by the mafia and pedophiles that files bankruptcy against their pensioners. [02:56] DaemonFC You'd think so at least. [02:57] DaemonFC She mostly needs a two bedroom apartment because she won't make my brother move out or get a job and pay part of the rent. [02:58] DaemonFC If she needed a one bedroom, she could go back down to paying $500 less. If she made him get a job, she wouldn't need two. [02:58] DaemonFC She's never forced him to grow up and he's 29 years old. [02:58] DaemonFC This is tragic. [02:58] DaemonFC Everyone I've ever been with has asked me what we're going to do about my brother when my mom dies. [02:58] DaemonFC And I say "That's a grenade in my back pocket. I'm aware.".

[03:12] DaemonFC If you kink them a little, the entire cable is ruined. [03:12] *TechrightsBot-tr has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [03:14] DaemonFC I agree with the reviewer who asks why the Bose Wave has a CD player and not Bluetooth in this day and age. [03:14] DaemonFC Then again, I have CDs. It would be nice to have the option for Bluetooth even if I don't use it. It's like, super cheap to put Bluetooth in something and for MSRP of $500, it should have it. [03:16] DaemonFC I suppose if TVs get super nasty I could just use them for the display and reroute the audio for what I'm watching through the laptop directly to the Bose. [03:23] DaemonFC "Bose's early success with the 901 speakers and their later variations won them interest from audiophiles, but the company's decision to later simultaneously target the consumer market and keep their prices high led to continual skepticism from enthusiasts. (If you've followed Apple with derision over the last 30 years or so, it's kind of like that.)" [03:24] DaemonFC When Apple started selling in Walmart I laughed pretty hard. [03:24] DaemonFC Now you can buy your "premiums Apple products" where I get condoms, underwear, cat litter, and $50 Chinese car tires. Woohoo. [03:26] DaemonFC I wouldn't compare Apple to Bose. Bose at least make products that work and don't really care what other products you try to use them with. [03:26] DaemonFC Apple can't manage either of those, much less at once. [03:29] DaemonFC I'm listening to Tango in the Night on the Bose. It's one of my favorite albums. Like, nothing on it is bad or so much worse than 1-2 other tracks that it stands out and makes you stop playing the disc. [03:30] DaemonFC The Fleetwood Mac stuff I listen to is only with Stevie Nicks. They were pretty terrible before and after, so I don't see any point in wasting shelf space on it. [03:31] DaemonFC There's very few albums that start out very strong and just keep going and can fill an entire CD and are actually pleasant to listen to that way. [03:31] DaemonFC And pretty much nothing like that since streaming overtook CDs. [03:32] DaemonFC This is one of the go to albums for torture testing lossy media codecs and speakers and headphones. [03:32] DaemonFC If there's something wrong with them, this will flush it out. [03:33] DaemonFC MP3 for example doesn't handle castanets very well. [03:34] DaemonFC It has a big problem with pre-echo and really the only way to deal with them is give up and bloat those frames that they're in to overcome the artifacts. The fact that Opus handles them very well is impressive. [03:34] DaemonFC Even pure MDCT codecs have trouble, but MP3 is especially bad at it. [03:36] DaemonFC MinceR, One of my favorite design decisions with Opus is that the frame size is effectively arbitrary, but Vorbis has that as well. [03:36] DaemonFC For some reason, MP3 didn't do that and neither does AAC.

[11:14] matey The French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) has been critical of the foundation for funding "initiatives to bring science and religion closer together." [11:14] matey Richard Dawkins, in his 2006 book The God Delusion, interprets Horgan as saying that "Templeton's money corrupts science", and characterizes the prize as going "usually to a scientist who is prepared to say something nice about religion".[73] Donald Wiebe, scholar of religious studies at the University of Toronto, similarly criticized the foundation in a 2009 article entitled Religious Biases in Funding Religious Studies Research? [11:15] matey so basically, pew (in at least one area) is working with biases they receive high-profile criticism for [11:16] matey i think the odds of them doing this AND being in dc AND not being biased towards invasion is highly unlikely [11:16] matey by "towards" i mean "in favour of" [11:17] matey plus the fundies tend to support invasions more because every war is a holy war [11:17] matey "A 2007 article in the Los Angeles Times described the foundation as having "drawn criticism for its early support of intelligent design"" [11:18] matey intelligent design, or let the churches tell science what to teach [11:18] matey im happy to explore connections with religion and science personally [11:18] matey but im against churches hobbling science classes in public schools [11:18] matey because that would be insane [11:19] matey and here is a pew funder censoring: [11:19] matey In March 2009, the Discovery Institute accused the foundation of blocking its involvement in Biological Evolution: Facts and Theories, a Vatican-backed, Templeton-funded conference in Rome.

[20:38] DaemonFC schestowitz, I'm working on an article about my Bose system, what I think about Bluetooth audio and why I try to avoid using it, etc. [20:39] DaemonFC The AAC profile in Bluetooth is only slightly better than the baseline SBC codec. [20:40] DaemonFC It has some pretty significant downsides too. The logical thing to do for consumer experience would be implement Opus because of its excellent quality and low algorithmic delay. [20:40] DaemonFC When you use Apple's AirPods with an iPhone, there's a jarring amount of algorithmic delay that can add up to nearly a full second of lag. [20:41] DaemonFC With Opus source, you could theoretically avoid another lossy encoding and just stream it as packets of data directly to a receiver, and avoid a double lossy conversion and reduce latency by over 90%.

[20:50] DaemonFC MinceR, Apple and Bose got into a spat a few years ago in court. [20:51] DaemonFC After Apple had to pay Bose for settling a patent infringement case, Apple disappeared all Bose products from Apple stores, and when Apple customers got angry and started ordering Bose from the Bose store instead of Beats from the Apple one, the Apple store brought the Bose stuff back. It happened so fast that Apple reversed themselves less than 3 months in once audio speaker product sales in their stores collapsed overnight. [20:53] DaemonFC "While Apple has tried to position their AirPods and Beats as "Bose killers", in my opinion, Apple only barely outperforms something you can find in the clearance aisle at the local Walmart under the Onn store brand, much less Bose." [20:55] DaemonFC "There is a market for Apple's trash just because they put their brand name on it and some people fall for it, but for about the same price you can get Bose products that perform much better.
