37 sounds the best. Cope.
I only set mine to prime numbers. Fite me.
Ah found my family. Usually i watch shows at 17 or 19, but the whispery ones need to go up to 29, or even 31
I’d allow 51 just because it’s divisible by 17 and I think that’s neat (but my TV only goes up to 50)
i do this with camera setting. f/3.5? oh no, must be changed to f/4 or f/2.8
Hmm. My camera is currently set to aperture priority and f/1.2. I want a heavy blur behind the subject. Also it’s in a moderately dark room
Right? I’m not like a photographer, I just shoot film on a used analog that I picked up on a whim while traveling. I was given to understand that you had your film ISO, your shutter speed, and your aperture, and while you could prioritize one of them the others would be forced to change with the prioritized one in order to maintain the proper exposure given the lighting conditions.
Like if you had 800 ISO film, and wanted to shoot at night in low light without bokah at like f/16 or f/32, letting in less light, you’d have to lower your shutter speed to the point you’d need a tripod and a shutter bulb.
On a side note when I first got the camera I was traveling for work and really only had time to shoot at night. It took me forever to figure out how to pull off street photography with a shutter speed that doesn’t require a tripod at night, even with like 800 ISO film. It’s been years at this point and I’m just now figuring out how to meter on the fly decently enough that the entire roll isn’t just black.
Digital does make it easier
So you don’t have to like balance the triangle or whatever?
Even numbers are the best volume numbers and I will die on this hill.
A real even numbers homie would die on 2 hills
Or zero.
Ending on a 4 or 6 is as bad as ending on a 1 or 9.
Ending in a 4 is good actually because it invokes the pleasant feeling of writing a 4
Must end in an even number or 5, but cannot end in 4 or 6.
So 2, 5, 8, 0?
A few odd numbers are good volume numbers, and plenty of even numbers are bad volume numbers. Volume must be set to one of the following: 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 18, 21, 24, 27, 32, maybe 34, 36, 42, 48, 49, 54, 64, 72, 81, …
I like 33, seems like a solid number.
I like to leave the volume on mersenne numbers if i can.
What if its prime?
I don’t use Amazon.
I only do prime numbers; even, odds, multiples of fives… nope, those don’t sit right with me, only primes. It just makes sense to me and always has.
I’ll die on this hill…
1,2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19 are the only volumes.
Optimus can do whatever he wants since he’s technically a machine.
The volume should be at 0, that’s how loud it’s intended to be. Fuck the neighbors.
CREATORS INTENT.
I do agree, volume levels should be displayed and adjusted in decibels, straight assed numbers with no actual corresponding scale are asinine. I will die on this hill.
And the decibels should be relative to the reference level, otherwise it’s still meaningless.
The odd numbers are the correct numbers. The even numbers are just there to spread out the odd numbers.
Sometimes you need to go to 11 though.
I feel like we are destined to be friends.
TV volume must go up in factors of 5.
Multiples of 3. Multiples of 5 is too large a jump on most systems. Multiples of 3 gives satisfying sound and visuals.
3s are just 5s but for heximal, which is the bestimal
5 or 2, nothing else
Best I can do is only 2.
2.7

2πr
2πr^2
My new TV maxes out at 120 and I hate it. What sort of scale is that?
Especially considering that anything in excess of about 12 is deafening.
120 has a lot of factors. It’s a good number for a lot of situations. But IDK why it would be desirable to be able to set the TV to one sixth of its max volume when sound doesn’t scale linearly anyway.
This is why the objectively right way to display volume is how most avr’s do it, in decibels.
120 is way better than 100
It’s a multiple of every number you can count on your hands except for 7 and 9
A direct improvement over 100, which misses out on 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9 (half of them!)
the main reason why feet are 12 inches and great for carpentry math… divisible by 1,2,3,4, and 6
My car uses an even more fucked scale. It tops out at 63, of all numbers.
I was thinking maybe it has to do with 0-63 being 64 numbers which could be a small convenient bit storage. But that’s 6 fucking bits which as far as I know nothing really stores in values lower than a byte. Maybe there is some chip somewhere and 6 bits are used for volume and the other bits are getting used for other things. It’s still a very weird value to have
Even a fucking boolean is stored in a byte.
It’s because the volume is stored in a 2^6
Hyundai?
Mazda
My Corolla goes up one from 63 to “max” , which is a number I’ve never heard of.
Yeah, why no love for odd numbers?? Got be at least like half of ’em
My car’s plate ends with a k, which is even by my reckoning (in base 36 (0 to z))
I’m going to argue that zero being even gives the evens an advantage.
Yeah, give or take one
