This is not a statewide power demand issue. It's localized power outages from trees falling on power lines and similar

Before trying the conversion, I suggest checking if you are missing a library that strawberry needs (probably libopus or libopusfile). For me, strawberry reads opus files perfectly normally, so I wonder if yours is falling back to using ffmpeg or something to decide them

If you really must convert, use Vorbis with the variable bitrate mode -q6 (or -q:a 6 option in ffmpeg) which usually ends up around 192 kbps, or push it up one more to q7 which will be a little higher. This is the level that is usually transparent, but do keep in mind that any conversion between lossy codecs is much more likely to cause perceivable loss in quality than a conversion from a lossless source. Btw opus is the direct successor to Vorbis and is superior in quality per bitrate (128k is what YouTube uses and is indistinguishable the vast majority of the time). It's probably better than 320k mp3 at least

I'm highly skeptical of anti-GMO claims. Usually they come from the same family of pseudoscience as anti-nuclear and anti-vaccine

Pelosi, Himes, and Peters were among the 173 House Democrats who last month voted to approve $26 billion in new U.S. military aid to Israel, in addition to the nearly $4 billion it already gets from Washington each year.

It's all talk. When it comes to actual actions, they support Israel 100% of the time.

I have never heard of this flag having any sort of fascist connotation. It's a Revolutionary War flag, and is very very commonly seen throughout Massachusetts (and probably much of the rest of the northeast), by liberals and conservatives alike, due to its historical significance to the culture of New England. It's so common that I find it odd to assume he has negative intentions for flying it without some other evidence.

This is your mind on CIA propaganda

Out of 4,037,953 GitHub user profiles with email addresses, we were able to identify 1,426,121 (35.3%) of them as men or women through their public Google+ profiles.

Could be a confounding variable in that the type of people who reveal their gender publicly might differ from those who don't in some way that is also related to their contribution quality

If you actually read the article, it says they are receiving federal aid

I don't think the severe privacy consequences could ever justify any use of this

It was always pretty bad, musk just made it worse

I bet this thread will be fun to read from the Lemmy instances that censor words
