Breaking the quiet 3 sound
What seems ridiculous to me, is that I can connect a Bluetooth speaker, make it really quiet, but make audio in Ubuntu loud enough, so even though the Speaker barely plays anything, it's terribly distorted - so it's not Speaker's that can't go loud, it's Ubuntu that adds distortions to everything for some reason. On Ubuntu, if I start hitting 0 dB, anything above that is terribly distorted, while 0 dB is still far from loud.
It's not that the speaker's can't go louder - on Windows they can go REALLY LOUD while still being good quality. Something I've noticed which I don't exactly understand, is Ubuntu causing speakers to be quiet or distorted. Navalny’s supporters are expected to gather on Friday in Moscow for his funeral amid uncertainty whether police will arrest those who have come to say goodbye.I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 right now, Dual boot with Windows on XPS 15. Putin is yet to comment on the death of his most formidable opponent. This year’s state-of-the-nation speech was shown live in cinemas and public venues across the country, in an effort to boost Putin’s message before the presidential elections.Īllies of the late opposition leader Alexei Navalny said Russian authorities had intervened to stop them from holding his funeral on Thursday, as they worried it would overshadow Putin’s speech. Putin proposed a series of financial measures to support large families while also criticising “western values” for destroying “family ties”. Russia suffered two decades of gradual population decline after the collapse of the Soviet Union, a problem exacerbated by Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, during which tens of thousands of Russian service personnel have been killed on the battlefield. Putin spent a considerable portion of the address discussing Russia’s population decline and the threat it poses to the country. He called for the “denazification of Ukraine”, and said Russia would do “everything to achieve all our aims”. Putin appeared to repeat his hardline stance that demanded Ukraine’s unconditional surrender after Kyiv’s lacklustre counteroffensive this summer and delays in critical US military aid to Ukraine brought on by partisan infighting in Washington DC. His comments are backed by recent Russian successes on the battlefield as delays in US and EU military aid to Ukraine have already forced its troops to scale back some military operations, further lifting the mood in Moscow.Īfter capturing the strategic north-eastern Ukrainian town of Avdiivka earlier this month, Russian troops have seized three more villages in the past few days, indicating a growing momentum in their advance.
