Yes, it does. It always renders internally at 2x which means that's all applications have to support. Then it downsamples the final framebuffer to the resolution of the display.

There is zero point in sampling higher than 48khz. That captures all frequencies up to 20khz or so. 192khz is just a waste of bandwidth for no actual gain.

We already have a markup language capable of this. It's called HTML.

I'm not a fan of Prettier at all. A log of the time I find it makes code uglier.

Turbo Frames ( https://turbo.hotwired.dev/handbook/frames ) does this. It does mean pulling in a JavaScript library (and the user having JS enabled) but you don't have to write any…

The Switch is 1280x720 and the Steam Deck is 1280x800. They're not the same size.

If frequencies abover 20Khz are causing audible differences in the audible frequency range then that's considered distortion and there's an issue in your playback chain somewhere. …

FLAC has a massive advantage over WAV/AIF in that it can be tagged with metadata for the music player software to read and display.

48Khz can theoretically be better because the anti-aliasing and reconstruction filters can have a gentler slope, but modern oversampling converters make this moot now.

Decibels is a logarithmic (and relative) unit, not linear. So each bit represents 6db or a doubling of amplitude.

The audio jack on Raspberry Pi's has always been terrible quality anyway. Ok in a pinch but it's not a huge loss. If you want quality analog output from a Pi you need a DAC hat.

I love so much about this! A few thoughts: I love that it's a proper UK mac layout. This is so hard to find in the mechanical keyboard world. I'm not sure about the mix of key prof…
