Could you do some kind of real world testing / analysis video at one or more apartment buildings, or at least different wall constructions in houses, showing what types of audio frequencies go through walls, under what conditions, and what can the average person do when setting up their audio setup to not annoy their neighbors in a shared building? It is my understanding that subwoofer frequencies (< 50 Hz) go through pretty much anything, even concrete constructed walls. I could be wrong though. Given that, it seems logical that there is no way to use a subwoofer in a shared building, without your neighbors hearing those sub-bass frequencies. Based on this understanding, I bought a pair of 5" monitors which go down to 45 Hz (Adam Audio t5v) so that I have good bass, but no sub-bass for my neighbors to hear in my concrete constructed highrise apartment. I think it has worked (I want minimal or no impact on my neighbors), but I don't have any measured data to be sure. Are there any alternate approaches, like putting the speakers on a non-shared wall (if so how much does that matter)? Can my neighbors still hear my speakers but haven't needed to complain? Am I worrying about nothing?

I remember a while ago, some time in 2022, Linus was talking about how LTT wallet development was going. They had renders of a pretty standard looking wallet with logos and orange. Linus mentioned that he needed a large card capacity, in a slim form factor. ----------------------- I want to share my experience and perspective, because I feel that I relate to Linus' perspective but already have a good solution for it, and want to share. Maybe it will be useful info as the LTT wallet is developed. I think the solution is pretty simple: don't have each card in its own pocket (hold them as a stack instead). This removes having a sleeve of material between each card, which adds up when you have more than a dozen cards in a wallet. One implementation of this idea is the wally bifold: https://distilunion.com/products/wally-bifold . Which I happen to have and love dearly (I have v5.0) Here is my daily loadout: * 8 standard size credit cards * 1 Thick HID card * 1 Thin plastic insurance card * 1 Thin paper card * 5 US Bills and 1 US Vaccine card, folded in the bifold And here is it put into the Wally Bifold 5.0: I think the concept works really well. I like the feeling of using the magnetic pull tabs, fanning out the cards and grabbing the one I need, and then sliding it back into the fan and pushing them back in. I also like being able to pop one stack out, push everything in except for my transit card so that the transit card is held on one edge by the wallet so I can scan it with one hand on the picky card readers that can't read through anything, and then push it back in really quickly as I get on the bus. I hate fumbling and wasting time as I get on a bus: -------------- Cheers. I doubt I'll be able to be converted away from this wallet but I would love to be surprised.

why are the ads on your videos so much louder than the actual videos? i keep having to adjust the volume

So I went out and bought some new Ram and it booted right up, looks like I did indeed have DOA ram. Thank you scottyseng and Naeaes for the help

Ok so I am going through the process of testing each stick in each slot and I noticed that the CPU_LED light flashes for a second when I push the power button but then it switches to the DRAM_LED light and stays there. I'm gonna try re-seating the CPU next. So it looks like it's never been posting.

I just finished putting together a new build for my Dad, and I can't get any video output from it. Specs: 6700k (using iGPU) ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming Crucial Ballistix 16GB DDR4 2400Mhz EVGA 500B PSU Other components that are hooked up: 2x1TB Sandisk Ultra IIs (for Raid 1) CD Drive CD Slot Card Reader CM Hyper 212 Evo Fractal Define R5 From the outside, the computer appears to be booting normally. When I push the power button the motherboard lights come on, and the CPU and case fans start to spin. But I haven't been able to get any video signal(or POST) from it. The motherboard has the following video connectors on it: VGA DVI-D HDMI Displayport and I have tried all of them except for Displayport. I also don't have an internal speaker hooked up, so I can't get any audible feedback about the POST. Any ideas?

Binaural audio. It's very important for VR and just cool in general.

I have a Samsung 850 Pro SSD and a WD Black HDD. Is it better to have the ShadowPlay cache (buffer that records all gameplay so you can grab important clips after they happen) on the SSD or HDD? I've heard it's not advised to have it on an SSD due to it wearing out the drive very fast, but the 850 Pro is known for it's reliability with repeated writes. Also, do you think the video quality would be any different between the two?

I would love to own one of these. X99 looks like a great platform

I have a reference 980 and it whines pretty bad during the windows 7 experience index test. But in games it's not noticeable.

I was able to overclock the 4690k to 4.4GHz 1.2volts, and under stress testing the hottest core will top out at 78C. But the kicker is, the case fans are only running at ~700rpm and the DRP3 is running at ~1500rpm, making it nearly silent during full load. When gaming I can't hear the computer whatsoever over the game's sound. I absolutely love this case, and I'm looking forward to Linus' review of it.

Wow the extreme has a great looking cooler

Moved it onto the box, and realized what I was doing wrong. I was using a PCIe 8 pin connector when I should have been using an ATX. I guess my excuse is that this is my first time using a modular PSU. Back to building!
