DaemonFC" Even with a high-speed business-class internet connection, this update took almost an hour to complete. When the update finished, we opened the SoundTouch app again and it connected to the speaker without any issues. But then…another update.

We tried moving the system closer to our router, restarting our devices, uninstalling and installing the app again, restarting the SoundTouch pedestal, and even doing a factory reset. The Wi-Fi continued to randomly disconnect."Jun 04 05:04

DaemonFCI remember my parents buying a refurbished Hoover vacuum cleaner there that was about half the price. It worked fine for many years.Jun 04 11:31
DaemonFCSo obviously they got a good deal on that.Jun 04 11:31
DaemonFCThat was back when people still took their vacuum to the repair shop if it broke down, and when the thing worked so wall that you could look at the carpet and see where you'd been already.Jun 04 11:32
DaemonFC*wellJun 04 11:32
DaemonFCToday you get a vacuum cleaner and it's all shitty and made in China most of the time.Jun 04 11:32
DaemonFCIf anything happens to it, you throw the whole machine in a dumpster. Mom got a $700 vacuum that broke down and then threw it out a year later when it broke down.Jun 04 11:33
DaemonFCI asked her if she spent $700 on the vacuum why she didn't take it to the vacuum repair shop and she said "The guy wanted $100 to look at it and tell me what was wrong, and that was before he fixed it and it's not a car! The guy I go to church with said the $50 vacuum I replaced it with could break down and go in the trash every year and I still wouldn't be out $700 for the vacuum!".Jun 04 11:35
DaemonFCI said, "The $100 is usually a diagnostic fee and sometimes you get it back if you have them repair it. They just don't want you wasting their time if you're not going to get it repaired there. It may have only been a broken belt, which is like $10.".Jun 04 11:35
DaemonFCOh, $700 vacuum in the trash without even looking at it.Jun 04 11:36
DaemonFCNow she can't afford to just pick up and move out on this bastard of a landlord she has.Jun 04 11:36
DaemonFCTypical boomer. "Oh this guy wants to be paid for his work. I'll just chuck it and spend more money on another one that'll break down!".Jun 04 11:39
DaemonFCBoomers tend to be horrible with finances and in a lot of debt all the time for stupid reasons.Jun 04 11:40
DaemonFCThat woman she worked with gave her 2012 Chevy Malibu as a trade-in for $2,000 on the suspicion there might be something wrong with the transmission, without even getting a quote for the work, or a diagnostic.Jun 04 11:41
DaemonFCShe spent $12,000 on a 2011 Ford Mustang from the same shop, which told her it needed a "timing chain" that they put in, and the engine blew up on her on the way home.Jun 04 11:42
DaemonFCNow she has no car at all and a $12,000 Mustang that needs a $5,000 used engine.Jun 04 11:42

DaemonFCLOLJun 04 12:14
DaemonFCUnless you're an astronaut, not having a CO2 scrubber is rarely an issue.Jun 04 12:14
DaemonFCschestowitz_TR2, Mom asked me what I use in the livingroom. I told her "a fan with a furnace filter strapped to it and sealed in with tape".Jun 04 12:16
DaemonFCShe goes, "And that works?". I said, "Well, it's not quite HEPA, but it doesn't cost much. It's literally a $20 box fan and a $10 filter you have to change a few times a year.".Jun 04 12:16
DaemonFCJust get the cheapest box fan that moves air around because even on the low setting, this thing can maintain the air quality of a room. You're not buying it to move a shitload of air and keep you comfortable so it doesn't have to be a performance model fan. It just has to move plenty of air through the filter.Jun 04 12:17
DaemonFCWith no air purifier in my living room I can see dirt floating around in the air. It's so bad it looks like glitter if I turn on my phone camera and make a video.Jun 04 12:18
DaemonFCBut the fan+furnace filter gets rid of all of that.Jun 04 12:18
DaemonFCMinceR said fans don't work. They work, until they don't.Jun 04 12:19
DaemonFCObviously the hotter it gets, the less they work to keep you cool, until there's no point running it and you need to turn on the air conditioning.Jun 04 12:20
DaemonFCBut if it's just mildly to moderately uncomfortable, getting some air on you can relieve that.Jun 04 12:20
DaemonFCDo they save you money? Well, where I live, there's about 40 days out of the Summer where air conditioning is not really necessary, but you do want some air on you. If you have no fan and turn the air conditioner on, it'll add $2-3 per day, so if you used the fan instead, it will pay for itself in 10 days, and then you'd still have the fan next year.Jun 04 12:22
DaemonFCFans can also help the air conditioner cool you down better, so you don't have to turn it down as much to achieve the same cooling effect.Jun 04 12:23
DaemonFCThe US Department of Energy has some interesting guidance on the air conditioner.Jun 04 12:23
DaemonFCThey suggest keeping it at 78 while you're awake and 82 at night.Jun 04 12:23
DaemonFCI don't know about anyone else, but if it's 82 in my bedroom I can't sleep and I'm going to be madder than hell.Jun 04 12:23
DaemonFCThey also recommended a smart thermostat. The electric company pays you to buy a Nest.Jun 04 12:24

DaemonFCI did not see that. I was just commenting that elections don't always go the obvious way.Jun 04 12:43
DaemonFCI still think Trump would lose if he came back.Jun 04 12:43
DaemonFCMost people don't like Biden, but they like Trump less.Jun 04 12:43
DaemonFCIf they're still talking about gun control and abortion on election day, and the economy is bad, they're going to lose a lot of seats in Congress.Jun 04 12:48
DaemonFCBut most presidents lose a lot of seats in Congress, but then the voters are satisfied that they can't really do much anymore and give the president whose policies they just repudiated another term.Jun 04 12:48
DaemonFCSo I think Biden will hang in there, but I also think we're looking at the biggest Republican majority in Congress since Gingrich's strategy against Bill Clinton in 1994 and 1996.Jun 04 12:49
DaemonFCThe same thing basically happened to Bush, Obama, and Trump.Jun 04 12:49

DaemonFCThey conduct rigged polling to try to claim the Democrats can hang in there somehow.Jun 04 12:51
DaemonFCMost Americans are not terribly fond of abortion or gun control, but they keep rigging the polls to make it sound like people back the Democrats, and most people do not.Jun 04 12:51

XRevan86> The Hare runs like crazy through a forest and meets the Wolf. The Wolf asks: "What's the matter? Why such haste?" / "The camels there are caught and shod!" The Wolf says: "But you're not a camel!" / "Hey, after you are caught and shod, just you try to prove to them that you are not a camel!"Jun 04 16:25
XRevan86> This joke is a suggested to be an origin of the popular Russian saying "try to prove you are not a camel" in the sense "try to prove something to someone who doesn't want to listen", used in relation to violations of the presumption of innocence by Russian law enforcement agencies, or when someone has to fight the bureaucracy to get official papers proving that one has lost a leg or is even alive.Jun 04 16:25

mateyOnly by completely satisfying all the material aspirations of men and  women will it be possible to arrive at a level where such aspirations cease to dominate people’s  lives and thoughts, preparing the way for a qualitatively superior level of human civilisation."-- ted grantJun 04 17:55

mateyif you prove (with bullshit) that it isnt x, y, z when it is actually x, y, zJun 04 18:04
mateythey will assume it has to be p. d. q insteadJun 04 18:04
mateybecause they know its something at leastJun 04 18:04
mateythat much theyre right aboutJun 04 18:04
mateyif you hide the culprits well enough, people will make them upJun 04 18:04
mateybut theyre not making up the overall problem, theyre simply determined to find the fault somewhereJun 04 18:05
mateythe better you hide the real problems, the more people will come up with other problems (even imaginary ones) Jun 04 18:05
mateythe suspicion of millions of people will flow somewhereJun 04 18:05
mateyeven if it flows to nonsenseJun 04 18:06
mateyfix the real problems and people will make up fewer ridiculous onesJun 04 18:06
mateyhuman imagination will not cease to exist, but the abuse of that imagination will naturally go back to reasonable levels (mostly)Jun 04 18:06
mateyat least relativelty speakingJun 04 18:06
mateyjust for one example, if debian didnt suck, pocock probably wouldnt be a name we know nowJun 04 18:07

schestowitz_TR2not reallyJun 04 21:48
schestowitz_TR2I still use itJun 04 21:48
DaemonFCNot only is Vorbis deprecated, but instead of quality tuning for stereo mode, which stopped in 2004 upstream, they did this crazy surround sound bullshit.Jun 04 21:48
DaemonFCIn stereo mode, Xiph LibVorbis hasn't changed much since 2004.Jun 04 21:49
DaemonFCThere was still "gold in them there hills" as far as what was possible in encoder tunings.Jun 04 21:49
DaemonFCBut "monty" repeatedly refused to look into it, or even accept patches that achieved that.Jun 04 21:49
DaemonFCAoTuv isn't so much worse than Opus. It's comparable in quality to Apple AAC.Jun 04 21:50
DaemonFCI have a rough "transparency" estimate for each codec. They claim that Opus is about 40% more efficient than LAME MP3, but LAME hasn't changed much since those comparisons were made and Opus has.Jun 04 21:51
DaemonFCRead the change log between 1.1 and 1.3 and you see that.Jun 04 21:52

DaemonFCMost of the tuning has been with bit allocation. Which is the majority of what went into AoTuv. Jun 04 21:57
DaemonFCExcept that AoTuv doesn't behave as the documentation suggests it will and Opus is still more like an average bitrate.Jun 04 21:58
DaemonFCAoTuv doesn't really care if the average bitrate goes up significantly past where it should be.Jun 04 21:58
DaemonFCBut LAME behaves that way too at the higher settings.Jun 04 21:58
DaemonFCWorse, in fact. Because of the scalefactor band 21 problem.Jun 04 21:59

DaemonFCschestowitz_TR2, Dropping floor0 from the Vorbis specification and decoder would de-bloat it a bit. Anything encoded with 1.0-rc2 would still work. It was retained due to compatibility with encoders that were never guaranteed to be compatible with the final specification anyway.Jun 04 22:00
techrights-newsNetflix and Spotify won't survive the coming decadeJun 04 22:01
DaemonFCI don't like the approach to telling people what they do with beta software may not be supported and then crapping up the final product to retain support later anyway.Jun 04 22:01
DaemonFCCompatibility should only be a guarantee with something marked as a frozen specification.Jun 04 22:01

schestowitz_TR2yes, it's a DRM carrierJun 04 22:30
schestowitz_TR2same with all that stuff that replaces headphone jacksJun 04 22:30

XRevan86tl;dr: the Ukrainian army burnt the church when retreating, and the Russian army is not conducting any military operations in the region.Jun 04 23:28
XRevan86Solid logic, I like it.Jun 04 23:28
schestowitz_TR2to prevent the russian troops from seeing jesusJun 04 23:29
XRevan86I am curious what the Ukrainian troops were retreating from per the Russian Ministry's chronology.Jun 04 23:30
XRevan86schestowitz: Or maybe they were retreating away from Jesus.Jun 04 23:33

DaemonFCThere we go. I got my 3.5 mm jack splitter.Jun 04 23:35
DaemonFC$3.Jun 04 23:35
DaemonFCNow I have my TV and my computer plugged into the same port.Jun 04 23:35
XRevan86DaemonFC: Just for outputs?Jun 04 23:35
XRevan86DaemonFC: I got 50 of them for $3 a while ago.Jun 04 23:35
XRevan86Don't know what to do with them.Jun 04 23:35
schestowitz_TR2DaemonFC: you can get one for under a poundJun 04 23:35
schestowitz_TR2maybe you paid for home dliveryJun 04 23:36
DaemonFCIt was a Belkin. Got it on Amazon.Jun 04 23:36
XRevan86I actually wanted an in/out splitter, which I later purchased for a bigger price, and a single piece.Jun 04 23:36
schestowitz_TR2I have a     splitter on nowJun 04 23:36
DaemonFCI replaced the Vizio soundbar with the Bose to save space and get better sound from the TV.Jun 04 23:36
schestowitz_TR2lbut it's only connected to the headsetJun 04 23:36
XRevan86Which I also no longer use because later I got myself a digital microphone.Jun 04 23:37
schestowitz_TR2I had one 21 years ago when I wanred to hook up the computer to two amplification systems at onceJun 04 23:37
DaemonFCThey advertise it as a headphone splitter, but you can reverse it as well and turn one Aux In port into two.Jun 04 23:37
XRevan86DaemonFC: There are combined jacks.Jun 04 23:37
XRevan86Sure, that can work as both an in/in splitter and an out/out splitter.Jun 04 23:37
DaemonFCThis is the most versatile and compatible port for audio and all the electronics companies are getting rid of it.Jun 04 23:38
DaemonFCMaking you buy USB-C dongles to keep using it.Jun 04 23:38
DaemonFCThis is absolutely stupid.Jun 04 23:38
XRevan86DaemonFC: They're actually pushing for Bluetooth, not USB Type-C.Jun 04 23:39
XRevan86Apple's dream is a completely portless device.Jun 04 23:39

schestowitz_TR2cords are not evilJun 04 23:40
schestowitz_TR2they can also be good for the environment, fewer batteriesJun 04 23:40
XRevan86And because a cord is always more efficient than wireless charging.Jun 04 23:41

MinceR> Apple's dream is a completely pointless device.Jun 04 23:45
MinceRoh wait, they've had those for decades.Jun 04 23:45
XRevan86MinceR: I disagree, it's not a dream, it's a reality.Jun 04 23:45
XRevan86MinceR: Ye realised your mistake just in time.Jun 04 23:46
DaemonFCCables have better audio than Bluetooth, unless you're using a Sony receiver that's been made recently, and the transmitter supports LDAC as well.Jun 04 23:48
DaemonFCLDAC scales. Under decent connections, you'll have pretty good audio quality out of it.Jun 04 23:48
DaemonFCSBC @ 384k is like, oh, MP3 @ 128k. It's not a good way to stream, especially since what you're streaming is probably already lossy encoded anyway.Jun 04 23:49
DaemonFCschestowitz_TR2, I likened using SBC and Bluetooth to converting a WMA file to MP3 because Microsoft had another music store fail and it was the only way to keep your music (with the intermediate step being burn a CD you don't even want and kill the planet).Jun 04 23:50
DaemonFCBut it's generational loss.Jun 04 23:50
DaemonFCIt's like encoding a JPEG to a really low quality second JPEG.Jun 04 23:50
DaemonFCYou can do it. It won't look good.Jun 04 23:50
DaemonFCNo encoder is really designed with the assumption that it's already working with at least 1 generation of loss.Jun 04 23:51
XRevan86DaemonFC: SBC-XQ exists though.Jun 04 23:51
XRevan86So it's not a codec problem, it's just capped by manufacturers for complicated reasons.Jun 04 23:51
XRevan86My Bluetooth headset can do AAC, and the latency is not too bad (like half a second), so good enough.Jun 04 23:52
XRevan86Unfortunately it falls apart at SBC-XQ and standard low-bitpool SBC is noticeably worse than AAC.Jun 04 23:58
XRevan86But it's all on the per-device basis.Jun 04 23:59
