I don't think you understand fully what argument you are making, which is my point exactly. A 44.1khz sampling frequency can accurate represent the shape of the sound waves up to 5.5125Khz (1/8 of sampling), and semi accurately represent the shape of the sound waves up to 11.025Khz (1/4 of sampling). Anything above 11.025khz cannot be accurately represented at 44.1khz sampling rate. The human ear is a pressure sensitive organ and can detect the difference due to the different sound pressure the different wave forms represent. This is the integral of the waveform function in a quarter period. A sawtooth has a relative sound pressure of about 0.5, the sine of about 0.63 and the square of about 1. That is why the shape of the wave is important to the ear and the sampling frequency matters. You need a sampling frequency of at least 160hz to be able to accurately describe the shape of the waveform at 20khz, in order to convey the proper sound pressure to the ear.
That does not move the speaker membrane in a sine wave pattern. Membranes move in linear fashion. This patterns move the membrane in a sawtooth patten. That is why you need sampling frequency 4 to 8 times the frequency which sine wave you want to capture. Most music instrument's sound waves are very close to sine, regardless of frequency, because they are created by mechanical vibration.
I have also seen this. I've lived in areas with amazon warehouses, and unless I pay for the same day shipping, where I will have the order arrive next day, the two-day delivery on prime will take 5 days at least, because amazon will sit on their hands for 3 days before doing the picking of the order.
How many consumers do you know that will go out of they way and buy Mikrotik or Ubiquity for $60 when they can buy the $200 device at apple when they are buying their MacBook/PRO? Forcing people to do research is good.
Very often. I can rarely type a password with my normal typing speed and have it come right. The keyboard just misses strokes. I am using an external bluetooth Logitech. I wish I had chosen a surface book instead of Macbook pro when my new workplace gave me an option.
"Would consider" means nothing more than "would consider". Translation into simple English "would think about". One can think about many things, real, surreal, irreal, rational, irrational, possible, impossible, legal, illegal, etc. The thinking about something means nothing. It is decision that is reached that is important.
For example I would consider drinking a bottle of vodka. And I would decide "no".
I look at free space, not at the size of WinSXS. Fact is, after update and cleanup, you do not reclaim as much free space as you should, when cleaning up and rebasing with dism. On a device with limited storage users will install only a small number of programs (less than 10 imho). Full WinSXS for such a small number of programs is way to big an overhead compared to any possible "DLL hell" that these few programs will create.
What I am saying is have the DLLs expose functions like we do rest apis these days. Each function features a version, so then you add a new function version into the same dll, not a separate dll file. So even if you change one function the DLL grows a few bits, not with 100% having a new copy of the entire dll. I have never experienced DLL hell in 3.X, 9X or XP/2003 days. And I used these a lot. Sometimes an application needed to provide a local DLL copy in its executable folder, but it was rare and used way less space than winSXS uses out the door. And no, dism/online/cleanup-image/resetbase and/spsuperseded do not clean well enough. Do a simple test - install windows clean from install media and note free space. Install all windows updates, do all dism cleanups, and observe free space. It is no where near close.
Would you post model number & manufacturer please? I find that buying refurbed chrome books with the Celeron U processors for under $180 and adding a little more storage and full featured coreboot does give very nice, almost expendable devices.
If only Microsoft removes the bloat that winsxs is, and make sure that only the last version of a dll is there, and that all dlls instead provide versioned calls, then windows should drop to 2-3gb. If the install disk is 3 gb, the OS should take 3, not 12.
It has security. The edge providers have responsibility to not accept announces from customers for IP subtest that do not belong to them. It seems like the guys in Ohio screwed up and allowed receiving and redistributing any announce whatsoever. This is not backbone. Edges should use BGP filters from customers
No. When the i10ts created letsdecrypt a simple dns hijack makes https useless and I can get a valid certificate in seconds. There should be a. mandatory 72 hours delay for every publicity CAB trusted CA between a request for singing and providing the signed object, but alas, it is too inconvenient, that's why we have letsdecrypt these days.
Removing IE from Windows 8 and 8.1 was a breeze. You had to go to windows components and uncheck it. I have done in several occasion. It was possible since Windows XP embedded / Windows Fundamentals for legacy PCs
Why would I care. The hangouts app uses the google voice account for calls and messages, and supports group chat and mms. Although anyone who texts instead of calling is an idiot.
That is the thing, the issues are dealt with a new device because the manufacturers like it that way - sustainable growth they say, omitting to tell you that is sustains the growth of sales, not the other way around. I don't want to buy a new device after each bug is fixed and throw an otherwise perfectly good one in the trash.
The USB-C connector was not available when EU standardized the port, and it has its own issues on the electrical side. Yes, it is better than the micro, and perhaps the mini, but I have devices with mini that I use consistently since 2006 and they all work just fine today, mixing their original cables.
Yes, I know the design of the micro is supposed to support more insertion/removal cycles of than the mini, but it is wrong. There is just more material in the mini, and it is in practice much more robust. Out of the devices I have with micro ports, 6 of them had the socket detach from the PCB while pulling out the cable and more often than not, lifting traces along the way. It is pain in the behind to solder these back, and that works only if those traces are intact. The fact that nobody tells you is that micro connects are good for devices that will die in a year anyway. And most of the times the sockets are so cheap that I had friends push the cable backwards, because the socket's sides were not slated, and in the process damage the free standing pin header.
As much as I don't like to admit it, the lighting connector is probably the best from material, durability and electrical perspective. Too bad it is encumbered with patents and DRM.
There is a USB controller in that external battery. Usually firmware flash-able. It is not safe enough. Have them provide 110-220V outlets and plug your trusted AC charger in it.
It doesn't matter. The handshake has already taken place at that point. Do you think it is fail safe and bug free? No it isn't.
The EU commission made a very retarded decision to push phone manufacturers to the faulty by design microusb port for both data and changing. Charging should have been on a standardized barrel jack with varying voltage - 3 to 48. And data should have been standardized on the much more robust port mini usb. You know, the one that doesn't come off the board with the cable when you remove it about 50 times.
My thought exactly - moving wires due to varnish falloff and moving plates in the transformers and coils. It takes just an instant to "snap" to a location where the movement is no longer possible and only vibration takes place afterwards.
It just struck me today - a CRT is like a CERN in your living room. It is much more complex than LED screen. I can still remember operating CRTs with their plastic covers off, so I can use a screw driver to turn the trimming resistors fix brightness, contrast, and individual saturation of each gun, and that without a colorimeter.
Well, sound to me has a shape. When I hear sounds, I see something between an oscilloscope, frequency graph and something I could best describe as contrast function based on tempo, pitch and special orientation.
Which is perhaps not at all that surprising. There are animals who "see" with active sonar, who is to say we don't have some genes that encode a rudimentary passive one. I am not claiming to be able to make any sense of it, but I can attribute a geometric shape to a sound, especially classical music.
Nope, the CRTs are pure noise. I can hear them operating even with my eyes closed and my back turned to them. I just have a significantly better high-frequency sensitivity than most people. The initial jolt is the electromagnets snapping into place when power is turned on, then the noise of them working is very distinct high frequency sound (for the horizontal deflectors). May be your high-frequency hearing is not that good but you still perceive the vibrations.
S you are saying I can take all patents that end with "on a computer" and "on the internet" change those words to "on an ambulance" and patent them again? Oh the giggles.

Nice to see another brand of highly overpriced routers fold up. There are much more flexible and cheaper alternatives.
Well, if the theater is playing Korean, Spanish, French, Italian, Chinese and Japanese movies, there may be close to 15 a month I would want to see.

These don't happen for me. All my windows 10 machines have no Ethernet cables plugged and the wireless cards are removed.
Or moved to Oracle Linux 6. That also doesn't have the Cry Baby Poettering carp, has Gnome 2, and has security updates for free for quite a while.
