I agree with the first part but simplify the “why they’d do it”:

• it’s easier to choose with nice marketing
• corruption.
• being able to externalize IT.

As for the rest, from what I’ve seen:

• Web infrastructure relies on open source. Military critical OSs are a custom from open source. Security is best working from open source.
• You can pay the same maintenance fee for open source programmers for chasing your targets, leading to Ubuntu, opensuse, LibreOffice teams.
• upgrade is debatable. In the end i’d guess you’re more often better off with your hardware or national servers, but that’s related to security.

Consumers will like it, then enshitificaction. Also your data anywhere in the world.

This is what I always wonder about people who claim that GIMP is somehow less usable. Have they used it much since 3.0? It’s 4.X now BTW.

3.0.6 stable, 3.1.x beta. No 4.x.

And the bigger change was passing from 2.10 to 3.0 last March.

So completely correct as the point you are trying to make is the point the study focuses on (definition per viewed angle)

With use and age membranes change and the sound changes with it. Unfortunately you’d still need to change the driver / membrane combo on a regular basis if you want to keep the sound quality of these cans.

This is true for any cans, and AKG are on the long-life side of headphones.
