Doctor Who Season Finale. I’ve caught the bug again after a couple lackluster seasons, they made a great choice bringing back Russel T Davies as showrunner.

There is a Wookie padawan in The Clone Wars and I absolutely approve.

It is history though. Erasing it from history would make it harder to study how insane that man was, which is immediately apparent in basically any part of that book. In Germany, Mein Kampf is banned except for educational purposes, eg in history class. Nothing conveys just how bad Hitler was as effectively as his own writing.

No order in particular:

• Elder Scrolls 3-5
• KOTOR 1 & 2
• Dota 2
• Mass Effect
• Grim Dawn
• Kerbal Space Program
• Warframe
• Age Of Empires II
• Battle for Middle Earth 2
• Counter Strike

Maybe more metal-adjacent, but amazing: Everytime We Touch - Electric Callboy

How did he get performance based bonuses when his company isn’t profitable?

AFAIK to count as one play, a song needs to be played for more than 30 seconds (source: friend used to work at a record label), so to me it’s surprising it has any plays at all.

Isn’t arithmetic a class in Hogwarts and just a fancy word for maths (not a native speaker)? I think only Hermione takes it though and it’s only mentioned in the books.

I agree in principle, but knowing what people pay for a kb that doesn’t even have a numpad I would raise the usefulness cutoff to around 100.

It doesn’t need to be right to make money, often more money than companies get by paying people to do a job properly.

Let’s hope that is actually possible legally.

One minute coming up with a feature, ten minutes coding the most basic version, potentially infinute minutes improving/fixing bugs, -6 hours despairing over time zones. (I had an IT class in my last 2 years of school)

Ackchually my OS is GNU/Linux/systemd/Gnome/Fedora/Wayland/dnf/flatpak or something, did I forget one? idgaf

It’s trying its best ok

How is Putin deciding to invade Ukraine (which he started in 2014 btw) largely Trumps fault?

Absolutely. I would prefer they didn’t have google as the default, but I’d rather have Firefox with good funding and google as default than firefox with very little funding.

“In bed with”=takes their money to have their search engine and lets you change it in 30 seconds while being completely open source

I don’t see the problem.

I think those questions say more about the person asking them. None of these (except maybe the last one) ask about political views, interests besides technology, humor, or what they care about the most if it’s not one of the things directly asked about.

.wav files store volume levels (typically, but often higher) as a 16bit value 44100 times a second (again, typically, but often higher). This allows frequencies up to 22050Hz to be stored without losses. A lot of this is useless information, because most people don’t hear anything above 16kHz, which only gets worse with age. Other parts of this might be useless information because of complex low frequency interaction with the inner ear which occlude some higher frequencies (psychoacoustics was a long time ago, can’t explain it in detail). .ogg and .mp3 filetypes, among others, use that to simply cut frequencies that (probably) aren’t heard. This process saves a lot of data, but results in lower resolution, especially in the higher frequencies (look up comparisons for 128kBit/s vs 320kBit/s MP3, you’ll hear the difference immediately on pretty much anything other than phone speakers.)

If file size is an issue, .ogg is great, if quality is the most important, go for .flac, as flac files also don’t loose any quality while having file sizes between the two, though compatibility might be a problem on older systems.
