  • Over bluetooth through a car stereo, no you won’t hear a difference. But over a cable through a decent pair of headphones, there is a difference. Even more with a good DAC, amp, and speakers.

    The problem with audio quality is that one bad step in the chain from bits to eardrums will nerf the sound quality. So, if you upgrade one step you have to upgrade all of the other steps too before you will reap any benefits.

    As a musician and audio engineer, I would love to say that you should experience a richer music listening experience. On the other hand… fucking rent.




  • No, you must enter your birthdate using only this back arrow that is a pixel-width away from the forward arrow. It starts on today and can only step one day at a time. Also, the calendar has to reload every time you click a button. Oh… and I put a session time-out dialog behind the calendar dropdown. Please clear cache and delete cookies to try again.




  • First, unless you redistribute the video (esp. for profit), you should have nothing to worry about.

    Now, for the educational portion of our program:

    Unless your ISP censors internet traffic, it is absolutely possible to pirate without a VPN. Barring censorship, your ISP usually doesn’t give two shits about what your traffic is as long as your bill is paid. Those letters they send are in response to a lawyer notifying them that an IP address was found to be distributing copyrighted material.

    Companies obtain these IP addresses by “pirating” their own material and recording the IP addresses of any seeders they find. If this IP address belongs to a VPN service that doesn’t keep logs, they cannot be in possession of said material. Additionally, they have no way of knowing what traffic went to which customer after the fact. So, any letters sent by lawyers to the VPN service are pointless. Which is why, if you have a good VPN, they can’t trace it back to you.
