Relevant line:
US installations use +24 dBu for 0 dBFS
That means the US definition you can’t hear anything below -24 dBFS. It’s the largest value there, it’s -18 for the EU.

I’m either completely out of touch (what’s perfectly possible), or this one is very simple to explain and wouldn’t surprise the mother of a boy in the least.
- Comment on Audio cable measurements are driving me crazy — why don’t they null?!? 2 days ago:
So a signal of -40 dBFS is quite audible, since it’s all relative to 0 dBFS (full scale).
At -40, it doesn’t make any difference what kind of dB you are talking about.
(Well, if you are looking for superstrings evidence or even quantum gravity, it does, but I guess it’s not your case.)

Very few things are as fake as AI… and my best guess is most of them frequent some national Congress building.
- Comment on Audio cable measurements are driving me crazy — why don’t they null?!? 2 days ago:
Your graph has a signal of -40dB. Are you working in high-energy physics? If it’s only nano-tech or something of this magnitude, you don’t have equipment that is this precise.
And all the “high-intensity” findings on your posting (at audible 0dB) are probably because the expensive cable didn’t connect well to the socket. And are still nothing, and have no impact on your sound quality.

Ok, assuming you are posting this honestly instead of just pushing something…
Take a look on the meaning of “noise”, and how much of it your devices create. The best description of what is happening in your entire text is “nothing”.

They surely are popular…
- Comment on The sun is a deadly laser... 3 days ago:
but it’s cool to imagine a universe where life was incredibly abundant
There was probably nothing but Helium, Hydrogen and a tiny bit of Lithium at that period.

Writing that PDF into an USB device or into a new file are basically the same thing…
- Comment on We really need to bring back the 70s conversation pits 1 week ago:
You can make the niche without the pit. Unless you have some reason at all to use the different level, it’s completely unnecessary.

Most western languages are way less ambiguous than English. But yeah, every one has some stuff like this.

And the fungus is controlled by an ever changing proportion of different virus.

It would either be impossible to assemble or lose 90% of its efficiency in a few cycles after the paint goes away.

Are you trying to say it’s AI?
The trailer is being pushed by the semi
It’s being pushed by that truck behind it. That you can find if you follow the thick steel bar linking them.
And the trailer front is just kinda floating along
I dunno why part of the trailer is parked at the side of the road, but what you are seeing isn’t there.

Well, I for one am glad that he limited it to a ludicrously absurd size instead of a reasonable one.
- Comment on I am looking for a Linux OS 1 week ago:
If you have nVidia, make sure the OS you go with calls out nVidia support as a feature.
That makes the setup easier, but the capacity of making it work or not doesn’t actually change.
I’d say not only pick an OS that explicitly supports it, but make sure to test first as a live-image without installing and overwriting the OS that is already there working.
- Comment on 50ohm goes brrrrrr 1 week ago:
Just to point out, because it’s bothering me way more than it should…
But the electric and magnetic peaks align with each other’s valleys, not with each other’s peaks.
- Comment on Just like Drax in that Guardians of the Galaxy scene 1 week ago:
Lol, I didn’t know of this feature. It keeps growing and growing!

Well, you can make it the limiting factor.

You can add them to the left too.
And remember, if your interlocutor don’t like you adding zeros, computers pad negative numbers with 1s, not 0s.

You mean it would be killed more instantaneously?
- Comment on Real NASA research papers 1 week ago:
It’s acronyms referring to other acronyms… I don’t think GNU qualifies.
- Comment on Nope, not visiting that 1 week ago:
No need to assume. You already know nobody attended. And you can also be part of the joke if it’s one.
- Comment on Nope, not visiting that 1 week ago:
Show up and hour early and everything is a foot higher because of how fast we’re spinning.
Any actual process for doing it would probably be continuous in some way. Even if it’s just the machine making that part of the trip. Just living existence at some time and arriving at a different one doesn’t make a lot of sense.
So, just more reason to do it in space.
- Comment on Do it for your country's debt! 1 week ago:
Well, actually yes, countries paying down their debit is not a good thing.
But they can switch the debit into a form that doesn’t pay any interest.

How cool, if I make a few of those things move here, they pull others like them and keep moving forever!
– Physicists and game developers alike
- Comment on Just vibing 2 weeks ago:
IMO, the more interesting thing is how they are all always moving at a large fraction of the speed of light, but over any large distance, they are that slow.
Things never cancel each other so well on the macroscopic world.
- Comment on It's totally normal for tools to say they're depressed, just tune it out 2 weeks ago:
Oh, man. They are just parroting the training data.
It just means you are a bad person. Nothing more. Don’t go attributing any awareness to those things.
- Comment on it's a real chicken or the egg scenario 2 weeks ago:
Oh, man, I though I didn’t need them.
Of course they are not experts. Or at least, of course they are not honest experts, given that some sell the stuff the worm guy said cures autism.
- Comment on it's a real chicken or the egg scenario 2 weeks ago:
It was confirmed by his appointed experts.
I dunno if this is better or worse. But there were other people pointing at it at the time.
