Mani. That’s a specific and appropriate criticism! IIRC this occurred because Burr-Brown split out the 8x oversampling DSP chip what was originally intended to be used together — greatest decision they made for us now — so the original DSP chip input was intended to be limited to 96k look&listen, Superdad and PeterSt 1 1 1 Custom room treatments for headphone users.

Yes you’re misunderstanding. I don’t read 30 pages of posts and attempt to figure out who is joking, who is giving a friend a hard time, and who is being a troll. When posts are reported I look at several of them and attempt to do a little cleanup. If you wrote a manifesto that took a couple months to compose, I feel your pain.

Ralf11 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I suggest saving copies of all your posts.

Also, in the context of yet another passive-aggressive "humor" thread, that he should be able to control the discourse, especially toward those that don't find this humor to be extremely tired snark, is a little absurd to me. 89reksal, RickyV, sandyk and 5 others 1 2 5 Link to comment

I would think something would have to fairly extreme to justify removal. I would also expect that you actually read what you're removing. Apparently I may have unrealistic expectations. look&listen 1 Link to comment

If there is no such common ground, all we can do is to show how the other side looks from our own point of view... ...That is, all we can do is be hermeneutic about the opposition~trying to show how the odd or paradoxical or offensive things they say hang together with the rest of what they want to say, and how what they say looks when put in our own alternative idiom. Richard Rorty, Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature So, when this is the case, interpretations of the other position tend to be polemical. This includes polemical humor.
