Your anecdote is appreciated

Depends on the car

They still don’t have touchscreen support for MacOS. Windows added. Multi-touch sorry in the early 00’s. It’s absolute insanity

East Cleveland is an interesting place for sure. I have a client there and it’s definitely not in great shape. Their city government is definitely failing them in a big way, and they are also heavily impacted by the issue with suburbs in regards to tax revenue that much of metropolitan Cleveland has had to deal with. For those reading who aren’t up to speed on things, the city of Cleveland, by total landmass, is pretty small. Cuyahoga county itself is composed of 38 cities, 19 villages, and two townships which means that a lot of different areas grant themselves their own individual tax laws and guess what, they all feel like they are paying too much in taxes. So, they decide themselves that they get lower taxes, problem is, the tax revenue required has not actually decreased at all, in fact, by creating a new local government you have now increased the operating costs of your area. So really by having people move into these smaller suburbs you have really just created special groups of individuals who are wealthier, are a greater stress on county resources, and choose to pay less in taxes essentially bleeding the community dry. If you were to pull up a map of Cuyahoga county you will actually get a pretty good laugh. East Cleveland itself is the only outlier in this situation and it exists itself in a very complicated and sad situation that involves redlining, systemic racism, corporate greed and lack of regulation. Ironically its borders are surrounded by some of the wealthiest communities in the state.

Honestly the part that makes me the most upset about the situation is just how easy it is to solve.

I don’t think it’s entirely necessary to explain the entire topic in a simple lemmy comment about something that is so easy to search for and learn about.

I answered below, you can also read on any of the ALSA pages as well as the wiki page for it. Wealth of knowledge on the subject is available

Fewer kernel calls between hardware and software for loerw latency processing of audio is a must, there is a minimum amount of latency you can have with audio for anyone performing and that’s debated by a total round trip time frame. From the second someone plays a note on say a guitar to the moment the resulting sound comes out of their speakers and into their ears is rather critical for timing.

Trouble is to do most anything with digital audio you require a buffer (here we add more latency) so that we can do the things we need to. Your audio device will have it’s own buffer (and in the case of ALSA and Linux) your operating system will implement what’s considered an audio “server” which will add is own buffer to route to whatever you are thinking you need to do and blah blah so on so forth. HAL drivers like ASIO mean you have much higher stability and much lower latency as you now have fewer buffers which is less added latency, fewer interruptus to deal with, and everything just kinda works in harmony. If you want to learn more consider first learning what ALSA is or any of the terms I originally used. I suggested starting with the wiki page where all of this is already explained

Why are you getting downvoted wtf is wrong with lemmy? Apple is literally the largest shittiest company in the world.

Audio engineer here. Anything ALSA inherently does not “get it right”. It’s time for Linux to get HAL audio drivers

You must have the absolute most common computer setup ever.

Let the manufacturer know they need to update their driver’s when you find new ones. They should be doing that automatically or they may have a reason they aren’t pushing them to windows update

Oh sorry, there is another comment where someone compared this to Firefox and Chrome

Kinda throws the chrome comparison out the window

Nobody is forcing you to use sync, hell nobody is even asking you to try it. So why not stop being one of the spiteful angry assholes that is driving people away from Lemmy.

Imagine caring what app other people use.

He doesn’t say he has minimal telemetry, he actually says it’s a brand new laptop (from manufacturer) out of the box with nothing installed. What we are referring to above is with telemetry disabled in oobe.

You guys should try making your install media using Rufus

Source?

Yeah it’s definitely just regional popular searches for this situation

I’d watch that
