    The meme is literally correct. when you make an audio file into an mp3, it takes some of the sonic information that our brains are bad at noticing and just…completely removes it(to save storage space). if it’s a high quallity mp3 its essentially completely unnoticable. That’s why it’s psychoacoustic, it uses psychology to fool your brain into thinking it sounds better than it does, litterally.

    Psycoachoustic is basically just a big word for taking into account how our brains deal with what we hear.

    Also I’m not saying mp3 is bad, in fact I think the opposite is true. I think it’s good to think of it like being the .JPG of audio, you’re not getting the original quallity and that’s the point and unless you need to do manipulate that audio file and its a reasonable quallity then you likely won’t notice the difference.

    Ogg vorbis (.ogg) is a better codec though IMO.

  • Well, theres “working” and theres “working well”. Capitalism is not working so well anymore and its likely going to work worse as time goes on. more things will become automated, wealth inequality (and therefore a gap in political power) will grow, and companies will keep expecting increased growth in a world of limited(and in some cases, decreasing) resources. Capitalism currently “works” in the sense that its making resources move around, but thats about all its doing for regular, non rich, non well off people(and often is not doing even that much for them). It’s simply not sustainable when unregulated, thats why we need a well regulated economy.

    I didn’t understand either but I just looked it up and I think it works like this: if your opponent moves a pawn two squares up on the first move, and that skips the square that would make it vulnerable to be taken by your pawn, you can move your pawn to the square that their pawn would be at if they only moved it one square and take their pawn. According to Wikipedia “the rule ensures that a pawn cannot use its two-square move to safely skip past an enemy pawn”
