Thread 518527923

Here's a stance we can all agree with. We need to pass a law to put the guy who invented the webp format into whatever jail has the most rape and then after 20 years of rape he gets death by firing squad

>>518527923 (OP)
take your time OP and explain me why is it that way

>>518528000
Checked! Fuck that guy but also what the gypsy said

>>518527923 (OP)
I'm pretty sure it's a ukrainian guy who constantly argues with people on twitter about how it's actually a good format.

You wouldn't give a shit about webp if 4chan was compatible with it.
You're bitching about the format when yhe problem is this site has lazy code monkeys that don't do anything.

>>518527923 (OP)
Not that guys fault that 4chin doesn't support modern image formats.

AVIF is just as bad. The only formats that matter are:
>gif
>mp3
>mp4
>png
>txt
>zip

death penalty to people who make fake transparent backgrounds

I made a script that scans for webp files and automatically converts them. I won't share it, though, because I made it up.

>>518527923 (OP)
On other sites you can rename it to jpg or png and it works. Its only 4chan that freaks out because it thinks youre trying to trick it. But it is maddening

>>518528259
literally nothing i use besides my web browser and image viewer will accept webp. i can't even seem to make my phone send them via text.

>>518527923 (OP)

I have firefox set to reject webp... site almost always dishes out JPG instead.

I agree though.
webp needs to go bye bye.

This isn't 2005 and your 256 megabyte SD card from your mini-USB equipped camera, that can only ever take 1024x768 photos, won't run out of memory from a few losless .pngs

this is why i have a bash script that checks the file in imagemagick and if it has multiple frames, it converts it into mp4 and if it only has one frame, it converts it into jpeg.
files that don't have exif tags are fucking worthless.

>>518527923 (OP)
Remembering when WebM came out on 4chan; you couldn’t watch it in the browser on your phone. Once they added support for it, it became an obviously superior format. WebP might be technically superior to jpgs but it’s been 10 years and it still isn’t supported by almost any of the software I use.
>>518528259
Literally nothing is compatible with it, that’s the problem.
>>518528753
GIF having support everywhere is a joke. The file sizes are huge and the quality is bad. WebM is far superior and it still isn’t supported on iOS.

>>518528753
>gif
>png
no exif tags. actually what we need is a new type of format that supports tags, has built in encryption, supports alpha channels, animation, and can hold both raster and dct data.

>>518530224
>lossless photograph
nigga you do understand most ccd chips output a DCT stream, right? ain't no lossless shit unless you're using a $2000 camera, and even then it's iffy.

>>518528150
The format is fine but nothing can handle it yet.

>>518531474
Not being able to tag certain images has been driving me crazy. I never used to use the feature but now that I do the limitations are really frustrating.

The problem isn't the format, it's that 4chan has never had a basic infrastructure update that wasn't something fucking stupid and designed to coerce people into buying passes like all the unnecessary captchas and timers because hiroshimoot is a greedy jew wearing a gook's skin

>>518531554
It’s been 15 years. It isn’t happening.

>>518531474
Why would you want exif tags?

>>518531578
now imagine trying to search for files in windoze. if you can't add exif tags, you have to cram as much metadata into the filename as you can so the indexer will find it.

>>518531608
I’d be shocked if this place pays for itself.

>>518531635
I’ve come up with a system for this after getting screwed on losing information when a directory structure changed.

I go:
YYYY-MM-DD - Subject Detailing Directory (Topic Detailing Contents)

It works but you can’t really tag anything with it. Windows has gotten a lot better at searching document contents though so I mostly just add tags within the document’s body. You can’t do this with images which is the main limitation. I have tons of screenshots I’d love to sort but I’d need to put them into some sort of database to manage the tags since they are all pngs.

>>518531764

>>518533646
>I think mp4s have better compression than webms,
Depends on the codec used. H264 is worse than vp9. H265 should be ever so slightly better.

Webm technically supports AV1, which is better than h264 and h265... but i don't think 4chan supports av1 yet.

>have webm

There was some sperg here that when webm was first supported, he'd convert every job to a 1 frame webm "for muh filesize"

>>518533646
>>518533749
>Codec
Webm and MP4 are both containers, and they both have the same problems in that regard.
Some webm will not play on my phone in browser or photos so because they are vp9 or whatever
I have to open them in mpv app and toggle software/hardware decoding

265 is significantly smaller than 264, but you need a beast of a machine to decide it. I've had 4k security cameras with 100 hour files in both 264 and 265.
The file size of 265 is fucking small in comparison, but the 264 files can fast forward insanely fast

as much as i hate browser (its the chrome browser doing it, right?) forcing this webp format on me, it would all be fine if 4chan just allowed the format to be used in posts. which it doesnt.

>FLAC is imperceptible
Maybe if you have an extremely narrow sensory bandwidth.

I'm autistic and autistic hearing is notably more sensitive, people with autism score far higher on auditory discrimination tests: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0010027717300963

I can personally discriminate between MP3, 16-bit flac, 24-bit flac, 44.1kHz and 96kHz when given random samples.

The jump from mp3 to 16-bit flac is insane on any track. The difference between 16-bit and 24-bit is the most significant in electronic music, especially goa trance, psydub, nu-disco and deep house. Some tracks have so many different instruments weaving through one another, or working together, in 24-bit you can hear more different individual instruments at the same time. It's like having a recipe and instead of the food having a unified flavour where you can recognize hints of, say, cumin, paprika, chili, cayenne and coriander, you can taste every individual spice to their fullest extent. The flavours don't get in each other's way, they complement one another, in essence the overall flavour is the same as the recipe would taste like otherwise, except you can taste the individual flavours of the spices in addition to the whole thing, which makes the experience much richer.

Also sometimes lets you hear more clearly what the artist is doing with their music, you can hear melodies begin to build up very subtly in the music, maybe like a minute earlier than you would first hear it in 16-bit format.

This is semi related to computer security, but one of the worst things that could ever happen is a mandatory digital ID outsourced to a private company. They (tech losers) are desperate to do, because it would be an easy way to drain the government’s money.

Only noobs don't have the official [Microsoft Windows -

>>518533646
mp4 and webm (and mkv etc) are just containers of "multimedia streams", which can include video, audio, subtitles, etc. The container doesn't make much difference, as the "encoded video data" is ultimately the majority of the files-size.

i agree that its totally pointless and literally just made to make saving images more annoying. but you dont gotta be a real computer whiz to get around it. and if you are even kind of a computer whiz you should be able to automate it

I used to have a strange job where one of my responsibilities was going to our competitors websites and just stealing their entire listings. Descriptions, pictures, etc. .webp would not work on our website and I had to just use a screenshot clip tool to steal it. I'm sure there was a better way but I didn't really care enough to actually help them beyond doing enough to get paid.

>>518535144
also autist. can instantly hear the difference with flac, but i don't know that i could characterize it like you do. all i could say is that flac audio sounds "sharper" somehow and mp3 sounds like mud, like a less extreme mud than youtube audio.

pls help
I realize audio doesnt work

>FLAC is imperceptible and you’re a lying fag if you disagree
no youre just retarded
its VERY important for highly dynamic music
which, tbf, means basically only classical music, and very little else. most music, and esp pop music, is highly compressed by design. worse, how and what it was recorded for originally, matters. basically anything made (or remastered) after the early 90s is compressed with CD/mp3 in mind (which itself is a type of compression). so FLAC of literally ANY of that, is going to be almost totally pointless. its like trying to resize a jpeg. that information was already smeared away from the mix/master
now its finally coming back around now, with ppl releasing digitally to FLAC directly, but still most just mix/master like theyre used to doing (ie a lot of compression), which makes it kinda pointless imo

but for music that actually utilizes a large dynamic range? the difference is actually fucking enormous, and youd be hard-pressed not to notice it. things can get very quieyt, then vey loud, and its quite shocking if youre used to listening to music digitally your whole life.
the problem is, how often are you rly listening to classical music? let alone classical music that wasnt mastered for some shitty CD compilation released in like 2003?
probably not that often
additionally, you need good headphones/speakers, otherwise the difference literally isnt gonna show up at all

Webp is fine. The assfuck is how every site dispenses them but no one wants to let you upload them. It would be the same if every site used png but nobody let you upload a png. 4chan should have added webp support years ago. Captcha is KJJPG.

>>518535673
The lack of compression means more of the harmonic overtones are preserved, which makes every chord, dyad and triad sound way the fuck richer.
Most people just focus on the bass because they're not trying to listen, they're trying to feel the pump. It takes a keen ear to listen for the magic sparkle in the higher ranges, but it's there and in older productions it's obvious to hear.
This is the primary reason that legendary producers like Alan Parsons despise MP3 and streaming. They mix with those overtones in place, and compression strips that out which destroys the mix.

Volume normalization is a different thing than compression. It's an option during the process. Its purpose is to prevent one song from being a different loudness than another which would be extremely annoying to adjust volume every song.
Video media is completely fucking up volume mixing to the extent people are starting to watch it using subtitles for their own language; and this is likely similarly related to the confusion over compression, where they think leaving the original input is best.

>>518536981
>i can hear the difference with weeb doujin music, classical, and 90s edm but through shitty sony over-ears and i'm 90% sure it's not wishful thinking, there's a distinct clarity difference
you ARE getting more frequencies. almost certainly.
theres more highs, more lows, and depending on the mix of that particular music, it might be less compressed too. youre probably not getting ALL of them tho, since its shitty headphones. but whatever, if its music youre very familiar with, youll hear a difference. if only slightly

i just point to classical because its the easiest ex.
basically all classical composers love to jump back and forth between pianissimo and fortissimo and everything in-between. thats where FLACs biggest advantage comes in and is the most noticeable.
its also good for rips of fresh vinyl, since vinyl similarly has a larger dynamic and frequency range than CDs. but if you take some random crappy mp3 you got on limewire in 2002, and turned it into a FLAC? doesnt do anything.
and thats why i think FLAC has such a confused reputation online. a lot of bad/pointless sounding FLACs were just retards thinking the new file type would magically make some junky old CD mix sound better. nope. you need the actual masters to do that

>>But it's to Save space
There's more to it than that.
> The MP4 format, more formally known as MPEG-4 Part 14, was developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG)
That MPEG group also created h264 and h265 and stuff, and that "group" owns the patents, and they charge other companies to use the technology on their devices. The group contains a bunch of companies from the early days of PC's (ie the 80's and 90's), which means Google and some other big "modern" companies aren't part of the group, and thus have to pay to use the tech. So these "other" companies started developing their own alternatives (that's where webm/vp9 etc come from), and their latest "FU" is AV1;

> The Alliance for Open Media (AOMedia) is a non-profit industry consortium headquartered in Wakefield, Massachusetts, and formed to develop open, royalty-free technology for multimedia delivery. It uses the ideas and principles of open web standard development to create video standards that can serve as alternatives to the hitherto dominant standards of the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG).[2][3][4]

> Its first project was to develop AV1, a new open video codec and format, as a successor to VP9 and an alternative to HEVC.[1] AV1 uses elements from Daala, Thor, and VP10, three preceding open video codecs.

> The governing members of the Alliance for Open Media are Amazon, Apple, ARM, Cisco, Google, Huawei, Intel, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, Mozilla, Netflix, Nvidia, Samsung Electronics and Tencent.

So actually, conservatives and capitalists should stick to mp4 and h264/h265, and communists should use webm/mkv with vp9/av1.

I suspect this is part of it. They want to somehow make it so you have to buy an image instead of currently where you can download any image and repost it.

even Instagram tries to make it hard to save their images. have to download the whole webpage then open it and save the image from that

>>518527923 (OP)
same deal as webm, it was google, you can download libwebp and you can decode/encode them yourself

>>518537583
>Volume normalization is a different thing than compression
sure
but any record released to basically any format is gonna do that innately. you normalize everything track to track. thats simply one of the main things you do when mastering. compression can (and usually DOES) come in at the recording stage, the mixing stage, AND the mastering stage, in some capacity. and then if you put it on a CD, it gets compressed AGAIN, sorta incidentally lol.
then ppl try to take that, and just turn it into FLAC, then get confused as to why they cant hear a difference.
its user error, not the fault of the filetype

I'm pretty good at photo editing with GIMP so when a website won't let me save an image I just snatch a screengrab with Control+Alt+Printscreen and then open GIMP, paste, save as .png and it's done. I don't have to save any websites.

I have a310, and it can decode and encode both h265/hevc and av1. I did many tests with the av1 encoder, and all of it's options (which when using ffmpeg and av1_qsv are far less than h264_qsv and hevc_qsv encoders). So whilst it does a decent job at av1, I found the quality-to-bitrate ratio is about the same as h264. So I actually just switched to hevc for what I'm doing, because I want a "better ratio".

I use ChatGPT as a "fellow brain-stormer", and so when "we" came around to the conclusion that (av1=h264)

I only remember "XE3". DESU, I don't pay much attention to "whats new". But when I needed a new+cheap GPU for my AMD 5950X PC, I realised Intel Arc was smashing even Nvidia 4090 with regards to "codecs". Even (from memory, coz just looking, the website cpu-monkey.com that I used to get info from has changed its layout/info since I last looked, and so I can't confirm...) the lowly Intel N100 has av1 codec support.

I get the impression that Intel has shat-the-bed in various ways with regards to "performance", but they are having wins at the "do a lot with little" end of things...

And as a former AMD stallwart that started with a Duron and then went 754/AM2/+/3/3+ and still has a running FX-8350 — let's go Intel you under-dog!

Intel's new GPU architecture. 1st one was Alchemist, 2nd was Battlemage, now Celestial.
ReBAR is short for resizable base address register. GPUs have to load things into VRAM and the standard for each chunk is capped at 256MB. With cards now having 16GB of VRAM, that can be a bottleneck in some scenarios.
ReBAR allows the GPU to load data in bigger chunks at a time, depending on the PCI-E bus width.

compared to 320kbps mp3, granted
but sometimes, you have to edit music to get rid of pre hidden track silence, and such shit

so seeing as mp3 only reduces size by about a 2.5 times factor from flac, you might as well keep the flacs you got to begin with, really

Holy shit. How incompetent are you all? Seriously. This is bad!

1) [mp3 is like mp4], there's likely a way to simply set a "start time"/"start offset", and no change the actual data at all.
2) Maybe you can do the same as #1 with a tag
3) You can make the cut and save to a lossless file (eg FLAC). If you can't hear the difference the between mp3-320k and flac, then what about (mp3-320k)^2 vs flac? or (mp3-320k)^3 vs flac?
4) Be a man and save the cut file to wav.

1) has to be supported (which is far from a generality)

>You can make the cut and save to a lossless file (eg FLAC)
in which case, the file becomes big again
the alternative being encoding it twice, which for one will sound like shit

>>518546146
>irrelevant, since such silences are in the middle of a track
ok smart arse. that's actually a legit problem, and I've posted it on actual parts of the internet before...

but if it's actual "silence", then the "Skip Silence" buttons I've shown in MusicBee will work. Otherwise, you might be able to "losslessly cut" files, and then "losslessly join" them. It can work flawlessly (if you cut on exact boundaries), but chances are you will get a "pop" in between.

And if you didn't know, then FYI, MP3 is pretty "old". Think "Soviet-era tech" vs "USA FTW tech". So in that regard, you'll find that opus DESTROYS mp3. I used to carry around my music library as flac files (in ~2006 I carried around a battery-powered-2.5"-hdd), but these days I'm satisfied with a decent bitrate opus file for portable duties (transcoded from my flac files, of course).

>>why listen to metal if you're gonna listen to fag shit???
Haha. I used to cop the same shit from friends back in the day, because I went went from nu-metal back to thrash metal, whilst they "stayed modern" and listened to all the **core stuff. Fast forward to today, and they all peaked at Hellyeah, whilst I post on 4chan.

Everything was booby-trapped back in the day. But also, Myspace was probably peak tech! When you edited your profile, there was like 5 "slots", and you could paste any text/html/css/javascript in to them. So that's what people did! People would go on to rando sites like www.free-myspace-themes.com, copy-paste a them into their profile, then you would visit their page/profile (because why not), and nekminnit (which fyi hadn't been invented at the time), you have a "virus".

Hello good sir.

You've posted a very rare black man there. I presume he is related to Ice-T?

Lol, nah, no hate.

But so that I can keep talking about myself, the truth is, I chatted up 2 chicks up on myspace. Now to be fair, the "myspace angle" hadn't been formulated at that time...

So I took 1 of the chicks out on a date, and she was "of the angle"...

And the second chick: well I don't know, coz I never actually met her, not that I wanted to...

Coz regardless, I posted a song on My Space. The song was I, by Meshuggah — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7m7AGT80VQk

I honestly wonder if that second chick is still alive. Chances are, probably not. Also chances are bad on the 1st chick lol.

Png is better than jpg, this is a known fact. It's a larger file size but it's. It compressed to shit resulting in blury trash

It might not have been WinRAR, but it was a video I saw where 2 programs are and 7z could open each other's files, one would do both fine but the other company was adding errors to the others files to make it seem unreliable

>Png is better than jpg, this is a known fact.
You are a reddit poster. This is confirmed.

That's because you don't know that jpg was "invented" in 1992, whilst png was "invented" in 1996.

"but what about equality" you likely say whilst you gaslight your fellow circle-jerk victim/survivor...

Well that's actually a valid a question. Because PNG is a longless format, which is good if that's what you want — but it's also very good efficient at compressing "text documents".

You may have discovered this via trial and error, because sometimes you can "save as" png and it will be smaller file size than jpg! That's impossible!...

Where I really hear it are in the hi-hats. Those high frequency harsh sounds always get nerfed down to 12K or so with MP3 or other low-sample rate compression. Having a good pair of studio monitors or decent headphones makes the difference especially noticable

and zero audible difference between 16bit and 24bit (10-11 bits would be enough, even: we juste use 16bits due to octet storage)
same as between 44.1KHz and 96KHz (40KHz would be enough for anyone past 25 [t.used to still hear to 22kHz at 23, but know it isn't the case anymore at 45]: we only have 44.1KHz because of NTSC, 40e3 being a multiple of 30fps)
talking about listening, of course: going higher is useful for mixing, but certainly not for listening

the funniest is the retarded niggerwits buying/downloading high bitrate and frequency of utter shit mixes, when former mixes exist on earlier releases (even digital ones)
very common with SACD: eg CAN's SACD are utter fucking shit, ultracompressed mixes, as opposed to earlier CDs, lol

>>518553464
I couldn't be bothered addressing the earlier posters, but fyi, you might actually "hear" a difference when changing between "digital formats", because your computer might be changing between programs/decoders/drivers/sample-rates/etc.

Can you answer all these questions: 1) what device is your music-playing-program outputting its music to? 2) if it's outputting via system drivers, does it have priority? 3) same, but does it have exclusive control? 4) is the program and device operating at the same bit and sample rates? 5) are there any effects/enchancemnets being applied to the "signal". 6) why aren't you using ASIO output? 7) why are you using ASIO output? 8) maybe the fact you are looking at 4chan whilst trying to listen to music is causing CPU spikes? 9) and you haven't reviewed potential spikes in LatencyMon.

Unironically, perhaps we should go back to tapes. Otherwise: 10) what is gapless playback, 11) what is replay gain, 12) what is anti-skip

my cpu doesn't spike and i can't really answer all those questions

Trump admin shut down the DOD bots, before Trump took office 85% of all traffic here an all social media was bots, and they were really fucking good
they seem to be gone though. Which is awesome. It was a hellscape, you can't demoralize them and they're just everywhere.
At least now most of the shilling is done by humans (kinda kikes and zogbots aren't really humans) which is much funner since you can demoralize them and make them feel stupid for how shitty they are at their jobs.

nah the DOD bots were scary good and ubiquitous from 2017-2025.

It never was. LLMs aren't AI. They're the cyber equivalent of eunuchs.

>the whole thing is just these retards justifying their insane purchases
>another disgusting thing is the bands themselves releasing remasters which are worse
to be fair, many bands are also trying to cope with play pretending they still can hear shit, lol
talent is mostly a matter of luck, anyway (right time, right team, which includes producers and mixers, right trip, etc)
Sick Boy's theory is mostly right: generally, one day, you got it, then you lose it, and it's gone forever
>then there's some absolute retards who release new recordings of old tracks and then rerelease that later in a different order with "bonus tracks"
fun fact: I'm fine with re-releases (as opposed to boomers, I know enough to be able to tell what is what: I'm not fine with compressed "remixes", obviously), even with "bonus" crap
but I most generally do delete the bonus tracks, demos, covers, and all that crap that wasn't part of the original release
I'm fine with som EP, though: some are great; far better than the follow ups

LLMs are literally identical to AI.
what they call AI is just an LLM.
>They're still just bots. That's not AI.
there's no AI that isn't just an LLM.
the only useful test for AI is whether it reveals government crimes, until then it's all just social engineering/chat bots.

Is webp spyware? Is it basically another virus/malware developed by Google/Microsoft but it escapes being rightfully labeled for what it is because it was made by Google/Microsoft?

>>518564580
AI is short for "artificial intelligence". AI requires a MIND. Bots and LLMs do not have a mind. There is no "I" in their AI. You're using convenient, but inaccurate shorthand.

>i paired my huge speakers with a sub and it was a bitch to get the right room placement for
if it's that hard, you have big modes problems, and there is NO right placement
reminder that modes are 20-30dB huge probrems (and you can't get out of bigger than 3-5dB probrems with equalization without sharting everything even worse)
and that each time you add 10dB, you feel it as twice as loud
which you can either start solving with:
- absorption 1/4 of the wavelength thick (which at 20Hz is 4.3m/14ft: thick & sic)
- many subs (think 4-8 subs, and in a not so bad room already), whose placement you'll have to simulate (with carefully managing the delay) to densify the modes (because once modes are close enough to one another, you don't hear them anymore, on top of them being weaker at higher frequencies, hence why modes are only a problem at low frequencies, given some Schroeder's frequency/room size: lower/bigger is better)
and that's without even talking of first reflections (speakers shall be encased in insulation, and the corners next to them shall be eaten by absorption), general, reverberation time (which shall be a lot fucking smaller than most would think they'd like), tall ceilings (under 3.5m/11.5ft, before absorption, it's gonna be hard), predictable wall impedance (hence why the box in a box, foremost), etc
I'm not telling 90% of budget into room treatment out of spite or snobiness: it's just I've forgotten more about physics acoustics than most will ever learn (and I'm not even bragging: many are much better than me)
>everything is away from walls
that doesn't fix shit in an untreated room
wall placing only allows free dBs (6dB in a corner, and 3dB against a wall: for uncorrelated signals, so a bit less in practice)
which is very useful to reach required SPL
encasing also avoids weird first reflections, but not at frequencies that matter at all for subwoofers (they shall very much be encased in treated walls, ideally: all speakers should)

If you can't distinguish between standard 128 kbps MP3 and lossless, your hearing is shot. 16-bit 44.1 kHz is enough though, and the only reason you'd hear a difference with higher resolution formats is if your sound card sucks at resampling or you're a dog

>extreme metal will always be with me
same: I also listen to rock (70's, some "hard" and post-rock), classical and jazz
but more than half still is proper metal
>i like to be able to tell what guitar amps are used
we've reached a point where I'm not sure I can tell a riff anymore
eg Pitchfork Impalement, on Chaos Horrific, by Cannibal Corpse
I'm sure there's almost a copy of an old riff in it, but the mix is so shit I can't even tell for sure what all the notes even are (they didn't just lose a great guitarist with O'Brien: they also earned a fucking sound "engineer"...)
and the album has 10dB of TPLR (true peak loudness ratio), so it's not even mastering (sadly, 10dB is pretty good, for metal, these days... CAN's original Soon Over Babaluma, from 1974, has 22dB, and Sodom's Persecution Mania, from 1987, has 18dB)

it devastated a good deal of this website's image culture.
Though, ignoring a simple quality of life update like allowing webp uploads confirms hiroshimoot's indifference to the site

A lot of the cause of 4chan's fading relevancy is 110% due lack of quality of life & UI/UX upgrades over the years.

webp is a novel format, most programs don't support it yet, eventually most images on the web are going to be webp and all software are going to support it.

>>518527923 (OP)
>We need to pass a law to put the guy who invented the webp format
That's a bill of attainder. I also oppose government involvement, the government should step back and allow the free market to step in and allow us to hire packs of feral negroes to rape them continuously instead of getting only periodic rape at an inefficient government jail.

i dont want to rain on anyones parade, but how many sprints is it reasonable that 4chan pajeets need to implement .webp support?

About 10 years?

>If you can't distinguish between standard 128 kbps MP3 and lossless
I already could in 1996, at 15yo (when I discovered mp3)
it's that much easier when you're a drummer: cymbals are the most horrible with it (sounds like they're weighted with sand, or coming our of a swimming pool)
I was thinking of 320kpbs (anyone still uses less??), which is good enough (to listen, not to edit, obviously)
>16-bit 44.1 kHz is enough
10-11 bits and 30-35Hz for almost everyone, even
and I'm being nice, assuming people will critically listen, in a critical listening room, or on good headphones equalized to their HRTF
for boomer farts with shot ears, it's far below such criteria, lmao (won't prevent them from spending it all on audiofool shit)

The government is a monopoly and all monopolies only exist through government intervention. Trying to get the government to break up monopolies is retarded, it's literally the opposite of how governments work.

>>518568308
>Trying to get the government to break up monopolies is retarded
conceptually, not at all: it's like trying to get a thug to beat another thug
it's precisely why you hire thugs, even
>it's literally the opposite of how governments work
such is life, in the clowny yuga

>>518568453
it sounds good but in practice (as we have seen in actual real life) government intervention in economies leads directly to megacorporations.

>>518568740
yeah, that's the clowny yuga part
in better times, breaking monopolies gave us BSD
so don't throw the baby

>>518568453
>conceptually, not at all: it's like trying to get a thug to beat another thug
That only works if there is more than one thug. If there is only one thug in town then that thug just beats up everyone whenever they want and takes their shit. Since states are by definition monopolies on legal thuggery, you can't have anything but the undesirable scenario.
>it's precisely why you hire thugs, even
You don't hire governments. Governments impose themselves upon others.
>such is life, in the clowny yuga
We live in a world where governments never act in the idealized manner they pretend governments are supposed to be for, so instead of talking about how governments supposedly should act, we talk about what actually always happens.

>>518568946
>Since states are by definition monopolies on legal thuggery, you can't have anything but the undesirable scenario
yes, you can
that's what Mutts' 2nd amendment is for, even
unbreakable thugs can only exist in one's mind, jewflag
>Governments impose themselves upon others
as long as no one forces them to back out
eg ruby ridge
>so instead of talking about how governments supposedly should act, we
could force them to
that we don't is on us, as Soljenitsyne reminded us well enough
that we're weak and cowardly is a reason less to throw the baby
