![]() Why encode from FLAC to MP3 if you, presumably, have access to the master files? Yes, FLAC is lossless, but considering Ubisoft owns the music itself you’d think the’d have the decency to transcode from the source files rather than a fan-made FLAC. ![]() One is that Ubisoft isn’t giving you the highest quality music in the first place. So there’s two problems here, as I see it. Upon inspecting the metadata of those mp3 files it was discovered that they’ve been re-encoded from a readily available pirated FLAC version of the game’s soundtrack, available at your friendly neighborhood BitTorrent site. Ubisoft has made the “deluxe” items available to download for people who’ve pre-ordered the game, that is, if you’ve pre-ordered this edition you can download the mp3 soundtrack right now. The “ deluxe” edition edition of the game contains an mp3 version of the soundtrack. The publisher will release the PC version Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, also known as Assassin’s Creed II 2, next week. ![]() How can you see with that veil pulled over your eyes? ![]()

![]() Even 10 year old Intel cards have 10 times the amount of RAM Realtek cards have. Wired Realtek network cards tend to have very little RAM compared to network cards from Intel and Qualcomm. Realtek network products should, overall, be avoided. Wireless Realtek network cards are mostly supported by the Linux kernel. This problem with Realtek cards seems to be a) mostly (only?) a problem with on-board Realtek chips and b) a problem when the PHY is identified as "" There is a workaround, see below. However, even the latest Linux kernels - like 5.6 - have issues with many of these cheap network cards where they temporarily stop working with a kernel ring buffer message (r8169): transmit queue 0 timed out. ![]() These chips use the r8169 kernel module which is mostly stable. Most wired Realtek network cards, both those found on motherboards and separate PCI-Express cards like the TP-LINK TG-3468 PCIe Gigabit Adapter, use a variant either the RTL8168 or the RTL8111 network chips. Wired Relatek network cards are overall fine, but they do have very little on-board RAM and some need a workaround to avoid issues. ![]() |
