Windows 10 May 2019 Update thwarted by obscure tech known as 'external storage'

Re: @AC - "If you are an advanced user".

MacOS uses names instead of drive letters, e. g. MacHD1. So there is no advantage other than that the names go with the disk, not where it is plugged in. And they are longer to type.

Hi-res audio folk to introduce new rules and weed out impure noises

Friday 26th June 2015 15:02 GMT James Rome

Re: for dogs only

The comment above about steep filters is on the mark, which is why at least 48kHz sampling rate is needed. Buyt frequency response is not the issue. It is the bit representation of the samples. 16 bits leaves complicates orchestral music sounding like a muddle, and puts graininess in the strings. 24 bits is totally adequate. That said, some CDs with bit--mastering which supposedly gives an effective 19 bits, sound quite good.

OpenSUSE 13.1: Oh look, a Linux with YOU in mind (and 64-bit ARMs)

Thursday 28th November 2013 14:56 GMT James Rome

I love SUSE

I have been using SUSE, and then OpenSUSE since version 8. It has always worked without a hitch, been frugal with resources, and had great support. YaST2 is a wonderful administration interface, especially for newbies. I only reboot for kernel updates. I can't understand why people like Ubuntu or Fedora. Tried both, hated them.

Adobe CEO admits need to 'tweak' Creative Suite's cloud-only policy

Thursday 20th June 2013 12:56 GMT James Rome

The government cannot lock into payments

The problem is that many of us work for organizations that cannot commit to monthly payments given the budget situation. And for a consultant with occasional work, this is an incredible burden.

Adobe has their heads in the sand.
