@GothFvck@metalhead.club @mattdm@hachyderm.io @zuul@pdx.social you might not have realised just how crazy this is. This is not about using Ethernet cabling to connect your speakers. They are literally talking about using a different Ethernet cable to attach your file server to your computer, since supposedly different cables changer the way the music files served off of that server sounds.
Yes. It's that crazy.

@loke@functional.cafe @mattdm@hachyderm.io @zuul@pdx.social lmao wtf. it's amazing how much people overestimate how much bandwidth audio really takes up. There's a reason why CD-R's are 700MB. There's only so much going on with the data and it's all 0's and 1's. Music is actually fairly simple stuff. Where's the coocoo clock emoji? 🤪 I mean... there's a level where I have to congratulate the people who are selling these things. Good for them. Seriously. lol. The people buying this stuff are obviously doing well financially and are foolish and ignorant enough to deserve being ripped off.
