Western society thinks it’s normal to read minds? Or that it’s embarrassing to ask friends and families a regular question? Never heard that before, or are people just embarrassed by asking for stuff and assume other people do to? Because none of this is “normal”.

Talking to people is what’s normal.

According to who?

First paragraph dude…

Earlier this month, the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement added Microsoft to its list of priority targets due to the company’s intense entanglement with the Israeli military via Azure cloud and AI services.

Think of the age that these books were meant to be read by.

If you think grade 4-6 children have that large of a world view….

So no stories can ever have those topics or themes? Shit take.

You’ve ripped an already degrading file from a cd, it’s already lower quality. You’re arguing that a lossy transfer somehow isn’t lossy…? That’s your argument?

You need to HAVE the original file, or it’s already not lossless. So when burning cds, there’s already an inherent degrading compared to the original master.

How are you getting this already perfect file? This seems to be the part people are ignoring. Sure if you have the master, and burned it yourself, it could be the same fidelity as a vinyl. But this situation is never happening unless you have a contact in the recording industry.

In almost every case, unless you ignore reality, a burnt CD will never the same fidelity…. Since you aren’t dealing with the original file in every case.

And the music they ripped is what quality…? When you start off without the master files, you’re already at a loss compared to the originals.

Ripping a bought cd even with”lossless” methods, won’t beat the original printing. That’s just pure fantasy.

Does it matter for on transfer? Unlikely, but how about what someone did before you downloaded the torrent as well?

The fidelity of vinyl, is more than a burnt disc. I didn’t think that was an arguable fact.

Neither is playing a disc. A vinyl has more fidelity than a burnt disc with crappy lossy files. I thought a topic about burning people would understand the basics of file transfers loss, downloading loss, and burning losses. But clearly some people just want to insult people, I thought buddy was asking g a legit question, turned out they wanted to insult someone while not even understanding the basics of the topic at hand.

Every file transfer creates some noise and loss to the file. Unless you’re using high quality Flac files, which not everyone burning and downloading files are doing so, or it’s already been converted or transferred and incurred corruption.

If you transfer an mp3 1000 times, it’s gonna degrade. You can’t use hashes to fill in missing audio portions like you can with text or something.

Every time you transfer a file, there is loss, this isn’t unique to audio files. Your entire comment is wrong. Even downloading a file online won’t create a perfect copy of the audio file because of data loss, even with hashes.

Making up “Standards”? It’s a principle of burning discs, it’s not lossless like you are falsely claiming it is.

Vinyl has more fidelity than a BURNT disc, even if you got a hold of the master recording and burnt it your self. It will not be a lossless transfer. Unlike bought cds and vinyl.

A BURNT cd isn’t lossless so that’s just plain false mate….

Bloviate about whatever, but dude asked about burning a cd, you made a comment about vinyl which can be lossless, while a BURNT cd never will. A bought cd yes, as I did already clarify.

Yes because your BURNT cd hasn’t had a few steps to degrade the quality… a bought cd would be better than a BURNT cd.

Because of the fidelity, that’s not a thing with burnt discs…

If you’re expecting every seed to be a blazing phenotype you’re gonna be in for a rough time.

I dead head mine so they bloom longer, but I think if I left them it would grow larger faster?

Don’t mind the size of these actually.

Canadian prairies. You can see it’s still the colder side from the purpling of the leafs (anthocyanins).

Canada!

This is when commercial products lead the way. Get some safers soap or some neem oil.

How many species have a larger wing span than that? It’s not that many…

That would look out of place in the majority of the world. Condors aren’t exactly flying over every city mate…

wingspan of 1.96 meters.

Not exactly bird like like these other ones though…
