I think they might get sued because as a publicly traded company they're beholden to shareholders (I agree with you)
Idk man. Show someone some cymbals on a 128kbps track and it sounds like someone crumpling a plastic bag via a tin can connected to a string. In contrast flac is going to sound much more natural.
I'd agree with you regarding 320 and flac - most people are gonna have a hard time differentiating.
Ooof, that's all I needed to see. I was considering a nothing phone at some point but this ensures that I will not buy their products.
Could I ask which modules you went with? The switch options seem limited but at least it's hotswappable. Tbh I'm probably gonna get one.
Nice collection. It seems like you have a type 😉
I've been interested in this but the amount of marketing they're putting into it is slightly off putting to me.
This is possible, but via a slightly different mechanism. Using piezoelectric sensors that effectively vibrate to harvest energy.
My brother worked for a large Korean tech company that was evaluating similar technology for consumer grade application (think whole room wireless charging...) Another aspect they were looking into was using low frequency sound waves to emulate the sensation of a physical button so that washer/dryers could have virtual knobs that feel analog.
Likely not something scalable at this point, but in theory it is possible.
I honestly enjoy a tall crisp glass of water with my relatively high end audio setup. I just pulled the trigger on some major upgrades (bigger subs, better amp, better dac). Typically listening to a broad variety (classical to norteño to thrash metal to anything sonically interesting).
Recently it's been tracks that I know really well to evaluate the setup. Not a huge Billie eillish fan but she can push bass in Xanny or Bad guy. Same with Lorde on royals. Deacon blues and Peg. Some Bubbles because all audiophiles really want to listen to is ping pong balls being dropped in the room around you. I want to pinpoint that balls location within 3 inches.
From there I typically relax enough to listen to something I actually want to bump like Angelina Aguilar or Overmono. Maybe some deafhaven.
I do like a good ipa but have been sensitive to hangovers. If anything there's a preference for a good ol left hand ciggie but that was more common when I lived in Seattle.
Amateur hour out here?
Jk, this is the way. Pretty much my exact Tuesday night.
Well fellas, looks like I'm gay 🥵
BTW if any of you look like this and are single hmu.
I'll be in the Sheol, if y'all need me!
