what's the difference between ffmepg and librempeg
>>107001356libre has more features and fixes, less drama, and a developer who will just fix shit if you report it and it can be easily fixed. it is also more GPLv3/AGPL heavy, which is good for individual users and contributors, but companies hate it.ff has less stuff, more drama, more money (and drama related to money), and an issue tracker that only exists so it is said that there is an issue tracker. but hey, it's "the official upstream".

Sirs why is Linux so superior?
>>107001249Windows has a lot of shit people don't want. The problem is you're not allowed to disable it (microsoft edge is the big one)that being said I use windows constantly (and linux) but don't act like Windows isn't shoveling shit, it is
>>107001402>Windows has a lot of shit people don't want.I mean, for the most part, the bloat that windows has is dormant. Not being able to uninstall Edge is so inconsequential that it's hard to take linux fags seriously. being able to uninstall core components of the OS and bricking yourself is not a flex. Windows is generally safe and just werks, which is a massive accomplishment in it's own way. I'll take a little bloat over linux any day.
>>107001456>SafeNo OS is safe, and no, third party corporate bullshit running at ring 0 is not safe at all>It just werksWindows still pollutes itself over time and updates, one of the most basic tasks an OS should do, are a pain in the ass for 99% of windows users, at least Linux distros are honest and let you pick your poison with the different kind of releases.
>>107001456the fact that a "core part" of the OS is anti competitive is one of the reasons it sucksand where I work, if an update comes in when I'm not there... I come back and EDGE is default browser, BING is default search engine because the zoomers and women just click YES YES YESof course this never happened on my windows 10 gaming PCbut the fact that they pull that shit off is gay
>>107001249>If you configured Linux to do all of the things Windows does it would take more RAMHard. Fucking. Redpilled. Truth. Nuke.I've been testing several Linux distros since all the windows10 debacle. And I came to the conclusion that Linux isn't necessarily faster nor more efficient than windows. Both use way too much RAM and in some instances windows has a better management than some distros. My vanilla Windows 10 Pro full bloat full telemetry test laptop uses 1.8 gb of RAM at idle, while most distros I've tested use near 3.0 gb at idle. In an OS that's supposed to be lightweight and spyware free.However, that's not to say I prefer Windows over Linux, on the contrary. But it's time to stop pretending Linux is a perfect OS when there's things windows does better.

Talk about headphones.Previous thread >>106941056
>>107000470>Getting headphone in the same overall price tier are kind of pointless unfortunately.I just assumed how people spoke on the 990 being a treble rape cannon that I would have a better experience. Oh well, maybe 1990s next whenever I get the new thing itch.
>>107000607I've found most headphone below the aeon to just have a lot of obvious issues and you just kind of pick what suits your needs best, i think for most people some of the more neutral tuned headphones are easier to recommend as a blanket, but obvious everyone is different and has preferences. For instance, the r70x is similiar enough in sound that you could realistically swap it with the 600 line and it wouldn't matter enough to have both of them, but if i had to only have one i'd still have sennheisers because of how trash the gen 1 headband of r70x was. But if someone was really really clamp sensitive and were one of the few people who could tolerate the wing band system thats probably their favourite headphone below $500.I can see the merit of beyers to some people, most are really easy to find on warehouse deals, local sales, tuned with a lot of extra bass if thats your thing and generally sell spare parts on common parts of the internet unlike snoy or audio technica. But i think for a lot of people if you are use to neutral tuning and hear the amount of bass and treble on beyers it's going to off putting, but i've only ever had the dt 770 long term, and the dt 880 for a short period. Kind of sucks that they are almost or are the same price as 6xx but no detachable cable without getting the upgraded models, but at least they were one of the only headphones still made in germany, but with the chink acquisition who knows how long that lasts
>>107000667German Beyers have been self-destructing coil shit for years already. Euro headphone brands are failed across the board. Best case Sennheiser and Beyer hang on in the same capacity as Koss and Grado.
>>107001315>German Beyers have been self-destructing coil shit for years already.unfortunately yeah, it's just at the point where the majority of audio products are of such low quality that people just have no standards, i've seen more than a few people have 3+ chinkfiman headphones die within 5 years and continue buying more. It's just the sad reality of modern shopping that people will always spend less in the moment and be punished later. >Euro headphone brands are failed across the boardKind of weird seeing that even the hd 800 isn't made in germany anymore, mine is a pretty low sn model from like 2010 and it's still working perfectly to the day. Sennheiser is pretty much still killing it though, there is a decent % of the population that has been burned enough by trash from china, and their refusal to have any customer support that it isn't even on their radar anymore, and in those price areas it's still just sennheiser. The tiers above say, $400 are so hyper dominated by american or japanese that they aren't really going to compete, but at the same time that isn't really new. Audeze has been around forever, dan clark has been going strong for like 10 years and stax has been there since the start, which was always the go to for high end anyways, nothings really changed. Some of the really expensive companies are so insanely bad and anti consumer that no one should even look at them, focal selling garbage pads for stupid prices, all the snapping headbands and refusal to warranty is just stupid anti consumer policys and should just be avoided. Not to mention snake oil companies like abyss, which aren't even worth mentioning because only low iq boomers buy from them
>>107000554then that makes sense, I did the same thing with my momentums, but via the 2.5mm
Oh no the horror! How can companies guard their code and IP from such espionage?

Why do people pretend that mythomax 13B isn't dogshit?
>>107000090No like. Just a few dialogues like. "Thanks for saving the village" or whatever(based on the prompt). Some of them need to be slightly more complex with two sentence, a little more emotion and based on a context. I'm just wondering what is the best tool for creating really good responses in this style. I need like 4k or more of these so I don't think I can dedicate the time to create each by hand.

lol, lmaohttps://www.headphonesty.com/2025/10/audiophiles-budget-vs-highend-turntable-blind-test/>In 2022, an AVS Forum member known as m. zillch ran a blind listening test that has resurfaced in 2025 amid fresh debates over whether high-end vinyl gear is truly worth it.>In this test, he wanted to see if people could tell the difference between two turntable systems. One of which cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and another was worth less than a basic dinner out.>When all votes were counted, 58.3% of 60 participants picked Turntable A as the half-million-dollar rig. But, they were wrong. Turntable A was the $78 Acoustic Research AR-XA, while Turntable B, chosen correctly by only 41.7%, was the ultra-luxury TechDAS Air Force Zero setup.
>>106996705The other 40% are just lucky guess.
>have headphones I like>reviews on my headphones are bad and other headphone is good>order other headphones to see what I'm missing>if it wasn't for one being infinitely more comfrtable to wear than the other I wouldn't be able to tell them apartBuy whatever looks comfy and is repairable. What a joke.
>>106998921Mine did as well. Even had someone get really bent out of shape about it, which made the prof needle him with sarcasm for the rest of the semester. We'd be talking about attenuation in data busses and he'd find some way to mention hooking up headphones to a MHz or GHz signal to hear the color tones.Can't do that shit anymore. Someone might get their feefees hurt.>>106997015The only hobby that I'm aware of that attracts more drug addict conspiracy theorist living in basements and middle aged white men with 6-7 figure incomes than audiophilia is aquariums.I knew a guy that sold stuff to audiophiles. The peak audiophile product was him taking those extra flat decorative glass marbles you put in aquariums, giving them a decent scuffing with extra coarse grit sandpaper, and putting a few of them in a cheap wooden box with slots he carved with a dremel for each marble. He sold them as frequency filter sets for some made up wave type that you could put in your speakers.>Effectively telling audiophiles to put rocks in their speakers>Charge 250 dollars per marble>MFW he had people spend over 2000 dollars to get a full set for their 7.1 system>MFW he had people come back for more to further enhance their new system that had multiple speakers in each enclosure>MFW he had people ask him if he could make special ones for their headphones.Comment too long.

>>107001461they both suck. use mixtral 8x7B instead
>>107001429Not sure what you mean, it is a "game engine" in that it keeps a world state and does tool calling and all that stuff. Traditional game engines are fine for cloud AI stuff but for local they would just be competing for resources with the model, and I don't want to compromise on that
>>107001489are you retarded? what does saving tiny states have to do with competing resources? are you high?
>>107001512Not sure what the problem is, I'm was saying that traditional game engines (unreal, unity) would compete with resources but a light 2d engine shouldn't just be considered a "wrapper" because it still keeps state and manages world logic

Do you recommend using Ruby on Rails for a SaaS startup in current year? Everyone is raving about it and Ruby seems like a decent language
>>106999222if you dont know enough to answer this yourself then it probably makes no difference for your use case. Just do it.
>>106999222I use ruby as my main language at work for the last 4 years. Some very critical stuff for one of the largest tech companies in the world runs on it. It's comfy, but I wouldn't recommend it or any other dynamically typed language for basically anything.
