The thing is that a lot of people do better without trying harder. Or don’t do so well despite trying really hard. I like the idea of free ice cream, but I also feel the injustice. Difficult

Edit: I guess my concern boils down to school grades usually not being very representative of how much effort and work a student has put into school. In higher education that changes, but before that things like familial situation, neurodivergency, etc can have a huge influence.

This is depressing though:

“Very often, other children without a [red] stripe were also given these ice creams, but some overzealous parent reported the ice-cream parlour, and the commissioner intervened very inappropriately, without knowing the full context of the situation,” he said, as quoted by TVN24.

It’s more recent idealogy, namely postmodernism. They genuinely deny the existence of universals in all respects. But I am yet to see a legitimate (philosophical) argument supporting that 🤷 seems more like a pop culture thing than real philosophy.

Descartes wants a word…

Interestingly also a possible symptom of dyslexia. Dyslexia and autism habe a weird amount of overlap of you’re “very” dyslexic.

I knew this was from Terry Pratchett! This is a screenshot from a DiscWorld novel, right? I think I recognize the typeface.

Thank you!

I suspect you haven’t missed anything and the audio tracks provided have been either inadvertently or deliberately manipulated by some other factor unrelated to the RCA cables.

This is very, very possible, especially given that the measurements were hardly taken scientifically or with video evidence. And that suspicious pre-amp…

Apart from something extraordinarily badly designed, broken or dirty, there is no plausible reason why a cable carrying a signal with no significant current and no high frequency components can have any effect on that signal - high frequency audio is approximately DC in the wider scope of Electronics Engineering.

This has been and still is my understanding, but the video just freaked me out a little, as it makes very tall claims about it’s magical measurements. But it’s good to get the reality confirmed by an expert, thank you!

That answer doesn’t suite people trying to get rich selling ridiculous cables though.

Yeah, I’m still a little in shock that the weird cable costs $200… how can people take that seriously when cables for $5 sound identifical in blind testing??

Back then CS:GO used to run better on Linux! That was why I switched (apart from a borked windows system I put Linux on just for shits and giggles): to get more frames, lol. Now I couldn’t live without Linux, even though I don’t even play CS:GO anymore.
