real talk though, you could litterally buy two steam decks for the price if one ps5 pro.

Sony's EX president is the one who should be driving ubers.

I love my steam deck, but I'm also glad to see more competition in the handheld gaming pc market.

actually I found the joke to be funnier because it was litterally technically correct.

The meme is literally correct. when you make an audio file into an mp3, it takes some of the sonic information that our brains are bad at noticing and just...completely removes it(to save storage space). if it's a high quallity mp3 its essentially completely unnoticable. That's why it's psychoacoustic, it uses psychology to fool your brain into thinking it sounds better than it does, litterally.

Psycoachoustic is basically just a big word for taking into account how our brains deal with what we hear.

Also I'm not saying mp3 is bad, in fact I think the opposite is true. I think it's good to think of it like being the .JPG of audio, you're not getting the original quallity and that's the point and unless you need to do manipulate that audio file and its a reasonable quallity then you likely won't notice the difference.

Ogg vorbis (.ogg) is a better codec though IMO.

Hydrogen should be air, water, and fire.

Fun fact, the shinkansen(bullet train) in Japan has had no fatal crashes or derailments since its opening in 1964, and in case you forgot, Japan is constantly plagued by earthquakes.

I could be mistaken but I believe the hypothesis is that at one point the universe had an average temperature and matter distribution (pressure) to make it so that in most or at least a large portion of the universe it was significantly easier for organic molecules to start forming including the building blocks of DNA and then when it cooled/expanded some of that organic matter made its way to earth to eventually turn into life.

I wish I could turn the amazon ai generated bs in the product info search off permanently, as I only tend to use that search to figure out what actual people have said about the thing I'm looking at and I don't trust a LLM to not hallucinate some random bs for something important I'm trying to figure out thanks.

Yea, let's just slap the missile equivalent of chatgpt on a bunch of drone missiles, what could go wrong? /s

Serriously though, what happens if the AI driving the drone hallucinates? I wouldn't want to be anywhere near these things when they're testing them.

Let's all hope the publisher doesnt fire the whole damn studio right before launch like is apparently common these days.

 

Its a shame that they did that, especially since the largest neurodivergent community on lemmy was over there, but for anyone who calls this instance or lemmy.world home I saw we make this the new one.
