Always dreaded creating splash screens for my apps, so I wrote this Figma plugin to help by generating all the needed files for each platform from one design template. Get it: cutt.ly/dk3uVck #Figma #AndroidDev #ios #appdesign #mobiledesign #ui #uidesign #productdesign

@Princewright95 @hypetribeng You're the one who got it wrong. OP was asking for something similar to what Bob Marley did, i.e., creating an alternative to the dominant Jamaican sounds of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Braye AND Alte is exactly that.

@hypetribeng They said Bob Marley, you dey play Alte. Does that sound anything remotely like Marley

@fabrotich @aramnotagoat @nxd1979 Maybe he has an android with no Dolby support, for example the Google pixel has its own spatial audio format and doesn't work with apple music

people kept telling me to do this so i did, and there's literally zero difference in sound quality. meanwhile spotify is way better at literally everything else

Thebigsol@Thebigsoll

I switched to Apple Music today, I’m hearing new sounds I never heard when I was using Spotify. The quality difference is insane

@HaunterGaspar @aramnotagoat @nxd1979 Without lossless, I'd rather listen to DA, because it's arguably a better master.

English

Fabian Kiprop@fabrotich·7 Mar

@HaunterGaspar @aramnotagoat @nxd1979 Point is OP couldn't tell the difference

English

Fabian Kiprop@fabrotich·7 Mar

@HaunterGaspar @aramnotagoat @nxd1979 I have both services, and there is a difference in sound quality, especially with the sound stage, which is more pronounced on AM with Dolby enabled.

English

Fabian Kiprop@fabrotich·7 Mar

@HaunterGaspar @aramnotagoat @nxd1979 Ruling out lossless support, AM supports Dolby, unlike Spotify, and if OP can't tell that apart, their ears are cooked. Also on AirPods, which don't have to re-encode AAC, there should be a difference, even if negligible.

English

Fabian Kiprop@fabrotich·7 Mar

@HaunterGaspar @aramnotagoat @nxd1979 So yeah, OP's ears are cooked.

English

Fabian Kiprop@fabrotich·7 Mar

@HaunterGaspar @aramnotagoat @nxd1979 Most people will be on Bluetooth, which doesn't support true lossless.

@fabrotich yes, actually most of this tech comes from prosthetics initially

Syd Mead’s work is so striking. Retro-future stuff that leaves you yearning.

He taught me how to do circumcision when I was in 6th year, and taught urology stuff pale mtrh. A cool guy. Whatever he believes in, he does, and that is to the best of his knowledge and abilities. In real life he is a good person and committed to what he does. We shouldn’t judge him for what he believes in.

Great read on the future of stable coins. Especially the musings on last mile UX, pretty relevant to emerging markets.

its funny that an entire decade of cool looking consumer products was caused by the addition of NURBS to CAD. it wasnt that this stuff naturally looks futuristic, it just suddenly became possible to model, so *became* the look of futuristic stuff for a brief unforgettable moment

Implemented better collision detection using OBB. I initially used axis-aligned (AABB) collision detection, which produced incorrect z-axis values because it didn’t account for node rotation. #threejs
