Calling Shenanigans On Super SATA's Claimed Audio Qualities
nk497 writes "Veteran Hi-Fi journalist Malcolm Steward has pushed newfangled Super SATA cables via his blog as a way to improve the sound quality of music, saying: 'My only guess is that the Super SATAs reject interference significantly better than the standard cables and in so doing lower the noise floor revealing greater low-level musical detail and presentational improvements in the soundstage and the "air" around instruments.' If that doesn't sound right to you, you're not alone. As PC Pro blogger Sasha Muller argues: 'How on earth can a SATA cable delivering 0s and 1s to their respective destination have any effect on those 0s and 1s? The answer is, it can't. Unless it's a magical one made of pixie shoes.' So maybe don't invest in Super SATA cables unless you have proof they're magical first."
Mormons are Christians.
By that token, Christians are Jews. There's still a big enough difference between someone who believes in everything up until the birth of jesus, someone who believes that bit as well, and someone who on top of that believes in the return of jesus in america.... enough of a difference that it's more helpful to name them seperately.
The revolution will not be televised... but it will have a page on Wikipedia
Subjective is fine. Subjectivity that changes the next fucking day so badly that it looks like a random number table ... is not. That's self-delusion, not a "taste for wine". And it represents 99% of wine drinkers.
Face it, folks: wine tastes like sour acetone. You drink it to get drunk or relaxed or less inhibited. Get over yourselves.
Information theory is life. The rest is just the KL divergence.
He's probably christian to, or just as stupid.
