Hold up: what drama? I thought everyone was just dragging their feet on implementing compatibility for it
This was always one of my favorite renditions of it. I had it as my desktop background for years.
It's apparently a great way to become single, soon.
If you ever find one that can be rolled up compactly and is a single wire, I'll buy one for each of my friends.
I fucking hate the whiny answer of "but my/most existing headphones had an aux so I don't like USB-C."
The biggest factor for me is that it simply makes it impossible to charge your phone and use wired headphones at the same time without a special splitter adaptor... Which itself is impossible to roll up with your headphones.
It's designed to be such an inconvenience to the point that you're actually just incentivized to buy wireless headphones. And since it was Apple, that of course meant their very expensive Airpods.
That said, I happily use wireless Bose headphones now anyway, but I did have to ditch my audio technicas for that reason.
@Ertebolle Voici la grande peur!

Well, yeah, and I have a good number of clients who are good at setting their quality settings to original and the like, to the point that I haven't had to worry about it.
This is mainly about my idea that I'd only like to have 4k HDR content, and it gets transcoded down appropriately for people's clients/bandwidth (the number of users who are stuck behind shitty 10 mbps xfinity is astounding...)
@oDDmON there's no way this isn't trolling... You're not going to have trouble finding star trek on bit torrent.
@kevincox does anyone other than me even still have motherboard speakers?
@Coldus12 I got wireguard hosted on my openwrt router. Straightforward and no fuss.
@BrooklynMan This seems pretty absurdly powerful. I'm going to have to think about eventually actually using hardware transcoding instead of just relying on a VPS with enough cores to go around...
Holy hell, what demon posessed you to post this?
@ralenjor Holy hell, what demon possessed you to make this?
@sneezy Yeah this is entirely reliant on the idea that you're only streaming from torrents that have enough seeders that you won't kill the network.
Classic tragedy of the commons, and definitely a shitty thing to do.
@xuxebiko Their GOP members likely weren't able to find a way to embezzle it easily enough.
Right on the road to 100%!
@Silverseren With nothing but spare keycaps and toothpaste, no doubt
