Ok, go ahead and continue posting misinformation and getting mad about being corrected instead of just learning

I am an audiophile, not an idiot. They don't. The slim possibility of reproducing signals past 20kHz causing audible changes to the signal within audible range may technically exist, but you will never ever demonstrate the ability to detect a difference in a double blind test.

The only reason to use a higher sample rate than 44.1kHz is to avoid resampling audio which is already in a different sample rate, e.g. CDs which are usually 48kHz or potentially "hi-fi" sources that may be 96kHz or higher. Resampling can theoretically introduce audible artifacts although a modern CPU using a modern resampling algorithm can very easily perform transparent resampling in real-time.

I was one of the last ~50 active players on War of the Roses when they shut down the backend. I had a bit over 1000 hours almost entirely in 1v1 dueling servers. Everyone knew everyone else. Tons of tribal knowledge about weird mechanics and glitches, blood feuds, and just generally interesting emergent gameplay within this tiny little niche. Since they shut it down I've been through college, grad school, a couple jobs, moved across the country, etc. and I still miss it. I really wish we'd been given this consideration.

Is the duality statement meant to be true in a technical sense?

The compositor will have to implement a CLI. Sway has an IPC socket and CLI just like i3 and I can use this to hide windows.

My comment was supposed to be in reply to some lunatic spouting word salad, not a top level comment. But thanks for your effort anyway.

I consider myself an audiophile but it doesn't require you to be uninformed, susceptible to snake oil, or judgmental. I collect FLACs and understand that there's no audible difference between a lossless copy and a good 320kbps cbr / v0 mp3 transcode, etc.

Bit depth is not the same as bitrate, there is no difference in the signals that can be reproduced within the range of human hearing between a sample rate of 44kHz and 96kHz

The difference is literally mathematically 0 unless you think your hearing exceeds 22kHz instead of the typical ~18 or widely-regarded maximum of 20kHz

What do you think the problem is exactly? Low sample rate? Are you familiar with the Nyquist sampling theorem?
