20th Century Fox kinda destroyed any hype for new Fantastic Four movies.

Sounds good. Thank you.

Okay. That makes sense.

I have a pair Sennheiser HD 25.

I just took the NPR test suggested by another poster. I did horribly.

Thank you for your input. I will not be updating to Flac.

I have Sennheiser HD 25 I bought 15 years ago. I play music through my Pixel 5a with a headphone jack and my iMac. I have no idea if this is good enough for the test but I will try it anyway.

I did the NPR test.

I'm on my iMac and I chose 128 kbps four times... I chose 320 kbps once and Uncompressed WAV once.

I did so horribly. Lol.

This puts either my hearing limits or the limit of my tech. If I don't get better equipment, I have my answer forever.

This is truly great. Thank you for this suggestion.

Thanks for the suggestion but it would drive me nuts either to convert all my music or to have several different files. Getting MP3s is easier.

Is this good enough to be able to tell? I have no idea what devices have a good DAC or not.

Thank you for your input.

My concerns with space mostly deals with my cell phone but you make a lot of great point of being able to convert Flac for any use case. Thank you for your input.

That makes sense. Thanks.

I keep getting advice of Flac > MP3 320 kbs.

I can't tell the difference to tell you the truth. Is it really worth it for audiophiles considering how much more space Flac files takes up?

Pohl only found that out by accident, while working with a client's network. "When I got into the device in question, I thought: 'Hey, there's a username and password in here,'" he recalls.

At least the credentials weren't stored in clear text. But Pohl decompiled the Java class he guessed might have been responsible for the decryption, easily discovering an AES static key stored in the source code.

After a little bit of reverse engineering using CyberChef, "all of a sudden, out popped a clear text password. And I took that username and password that I got from the Dell Compellent software, went to the vCenter login, and I literally logged in and took over their entire environment."

It wasn't merely that Pohl possessed the same vCenter admin access as the Dell software, with the ability to observe, steal, or manipulate all of the data contained within. As he emphasized in a press release: "This key is the same for EVERY customer! If a criminal leverages this vulnerability, they could use it against any of Dell's customers."
