Is Dolby Atmos a meme?
>>108564574My issue is that when you update your receiver you'd have to buy all the licenses all over again.Right now I'm considering between a Denon 3800H and an Onkyo RZ50 which has the basic Dirac Live license included. I was originally aiming for the 4800H but their price exploded a few months ago.
>>108564924Yeah it sucks. That said, generally processors/receiver last a long time and the technology doesn't change that much. Arguably the only thing that really has changed recently making upgrades worthwhile would be Dirac support. I tend to keep processors a while, they generally aren't worth an upgrade as improvements are so incremental.
>>108564971I'm afraid the AV receiver industry is dying as a result.
>>108564996It's a problem, hopefully they hang on for a while. I work in integration and our mid level business is pretty soft, the theaters we sell now are very expensive and using Storm processors and amps. I just did one that used a Marantz AV10 (arguably for smaller rooms I'd rather use than the Storm) but that's still expensive. I use still Denon for media rooms and such. But, something to be said about the K-shaped economy taking over, at least in custom install world. Denon Marantz have been bought and sold a bunch too, last it was some medical company, now I think someone else owns them I can't even keep up.

is there any open source orbital launch technology?
>>108564487NASA is open source you dumb retard it publishes every single thing it does, it's just super expensive to /DIY/ but nothing stops you. That's why it's laughable when you see the chinks claim they are in a space race when the path has been cleared for them.
>>108564487NASA runs RedHat Linux on all it's machines. Even when Microsoft sponsored them, they just run Linux in VM on top of Windows until they stopped using Windows.

Will humanity ever get rid of the 8-bit H.264 cockroach video codec? Also why didn't 10-bit H.264 (still inferior to 10-bit AV1) become a thing?
My tablet can't play 10bit video. I dunno if it's a CPU thing or this lineageOS build I have is trash.
>>108563137It's probably a display thing. 10-bit is HDR, High Dynamic Range.
>>108549224I don't get it
>>108549224You intentionally want to make hw accel broken on perfectly capable of hardware. It isn't happpening.
>>10854922410-bit H.264 requires special hardware. If they did not care about compatibility, the codec would have been abandoned ages ago.

I have a son now and he's going to need his own room soon, which is now my office, so I'm converting a 5.5'x5.5' hallway closet into an office. Going to use hanging wall racks (I need like 16U of rack space for work stuff) and just deal with less space. Hopefully it's not too tight but it is what it is.
>>108564705That's going to be hot af. Make sure you focus on ventilation before all the other things (like two wall sconces) you'd be better off with a lighting strip in the shelving.
>>108565018Thanks, that gray box with the slats is the HVAC getting run to it. Like a 4" duct. Also the pocket door can be open most of the time, maybe for a call or something I'd close it if my kid is watching cartoons. I'll look into some light strips thanks! The sconces might get in the way anyways.
>>108564585It didn't exist for long but ZON was the brand HeatoN (e-sports CS dude from Sweden) created and sold. Actually high quality stuff, less aimed at gamer kids and more aimed at adults looking for quality without paying for premium prices for big brands. Both keyboard and mouse is the same brand. It only ran for about 3-4 years but they have a pretty big fan base here in Sweden.

>>108562388"filling with zeros" is /not/ the correct way to erase an ssd. with magnetic media there are only two operations you can do, read or write, you "erase" data by overwriting it with something else (such as zeroes). ssd's on the other hand have three basic operations, read, write, and erase. a block written with zeroes is a physically distinct state to a block being erased.the reason zeroing is a bad idea with ssd's is that the blocks will be in a "written" state, and due to how flash works, you cannot write to a written block, when you want to overwrite a block the block is internally erased first before writing, this means the zeroing part is completely superfluous and even hurts performance, as any time you write to a block full of zeroes it needs to first erase it.the correct way to erase an ssd is to erase the blocks, you can do this with tools like blkdiscard (discard/TRIM are terms related to the issuing of erase commands to an ssd), doing so incurs no extraneous writes and the next time you write to it it will be faster as the blocks are already erased and ready for immediate writing
>>108564139i've used ssd's since 2014, not a heavy user but not particularly light either. none of them are close to worn out, even my first one is still working fine (though it's currently a rarely-used ventoy drive since it's too old/slow/small for anything else).unless you seriously hammer them, they will likely age out of use before you run out of writes
>>108562388>>108564580-- also worth noting that you typically don't need to manually erase an ssd before formatting it. since erasing is rather quick (way quicker than "full formatting" a hdd), most formatting tools i've used will erase the space you're formatting before formatting it anyway, though you can't hurt anything by erasing a block twice (it just won't do anything if it's already erased)

Sup gros, I was changing my rams to an older dd4 16gb 3200mhz just for testing so I could give it to a friend, it boot and worked fine after changing some setting in the bios.But the problem now is that I'm having black screen during booting after turning on my xmp with my current 32gb ddr4 3200mhz. Now I can only boot and use with xmp disabled at 2400mhz.I already removed my cmos battery multiple time btw. pc is 5700x3d, b450m mortar max and kingston ddr4 32gb hyperx (used it like for a year without any issue)
