is BSD useful for anything other than servers

but what benefits does it have

over like, linux

I don't know what network stack is

or zfs

this should be a good way to get a cheap flash drive right?

anyone have any recs?

yeah I wish

nvm I think I'm gonna need a hard drive

I'm getting one for PS2 hard drive booting

I kinda want one of these flash carts

^^^

it's a small price to pay for not living in a shithole

yeah

exactly

yeah and that's completely fair too

are you guys seriously saying you can't tell the difference between 320 and FLAC

because that's just shitty hearing

I mean obviously there's nothing wrong with 320 in general but I'm not going to use it for proper home listening use

I'm not using that shit with my sound system, it does become a limiting factor pretty quick

how are you supposed to set up double blinds for yourself anyway

then what's the point?

it is double blind

http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_abx

```Performs a double-blind listening test between two tracks.```

literally the only description

do you not know what double-blind means

what is double-blind then

so you're saying because you know it's a test to see if you can hear difference it's not a true double-blind?

ahhh, fair enough

yeah

ohh

the double blind refers to the tester and subject

not the two files

should I check any of these

it's a 320 generated with LAME

I did it myself yesterday

I will

I have to make more MP3s though

ohhh nonono

I have FLAC because most of the stuff I download, is really well mixed and mastered

and I also put in effort, because I listen to a lot of 70s stuff, to find the best masters/remasters

for example hunting down Steve Hoffman's remaster of Aja

especially really modern stuff with crystal clear production, the difference is immediate

really?

why so?

I thought 320 sounded best?

I've been under the impression for a long time that 320 is the golden standard for MP3

320 cbr

didn't you ever read the what.cd interview prep?

well I took the test and passed lol

it's whatever, just get on apollo or red

yeah but it's vbr

: ^)

@HEKTIK well I got 11/16 for 24K Magic

with a 50/50 chance every time, that means

not too good

what do you mean

yeah I'm gonna keep going with more songs

although to be fair I am on a built-in DAC with 20 dollar Sonys, and I started rushing at a certain point

when I had my Sennheisers differences were much easier to spot

because of the clear mids

yeah but those are like recommended headphones at that price, you know

these are literally "my last pair broke lemme go to JCPenney to get new ones"

they broke after years

also

these headphones aren't as loud as they should be

because shitty extension cable I have quiets them

so this isn't exactly ideal for testing

I'm telling you it does

it's a shitty one from Wal-Mart

no david, you can video call

I can't

also

@HEKTIK I'm telling you, if I plug these things in directly, they're very clearly louder

but with the cable, I can't get them loud enough to hear CSGO

the loudest game in existence

yeah again

it's just from wal-mart because I have no money

it broke within like a month or two

literally

ehhh

I might just wait david

does the other person also have to have all this enabled?

test with me

ye

@HEKTIK

maybe

*yes*
