Music industry’s 1990s hard drives, like all HDDs, are dying
  • What is really being discussed here is archiving of master recordings and session files. The publically avaliable releases themselves aren't really in jeopardy. Orthough piracy probably does provide an extra layer of security to more obscure releases.

    Where are your screws, HDMI?
  • *Don't look at me or I'll disconnect break

    I work in pro AV and I freaking hate HDMI. Causes so many problems and to some extent there's really no avoiding it either unless your running really high end gear.

    Winged cargo ship saves three tonnes of fuel per day on first voyage
  • The amount of fuel these ships consume to propel themselves is astronomical. Petroleum fuel has a waaaayy higher energy density than lithium batteries. Around 46 MJ/kg vs 6 MJ/kg...it's simply not practical.

    Nuclear ships on the other hand...

    Edit: This isnt really a fair comparison because of the efficiency differences between ICEs and electric motors but it does show the energy storage inefficiency per kg of current battery storage technologies. Not sure if there's a better comparison metric to use...
