If the odd number ends with a 5, it's fine imo

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 124 points 2 months ago

Honorary even number.

[-] DemBoSain@midwest.social 18 points 2 months ago

Max volume in my Subaru is 38. So any whole number divisor of that is fine with me.

Is that a thing people get upset about? I've just been turning the volume up or down until it sounds right this whole time like a fool ๐Ÿ˜ฐ

You should repent for the horrors you've subjected others to.

[-] experbia@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

i 3d printed something to cover my car's radio display. it only functions as an aux input to my phone anyway, literally the only thing it does is output audio and have a volume knob. there's no need to have it lit up in my car interior destroying my night vision with its tacky fake VFD-style panel backlit with 2005-cool-tier blue LEDs.

...that was my rationale I came up with for why I made and installed it, which I would give other people who asked. in actuality, it's because I can't see the volume number anymore. what I don't know won't hurt me. I'm free.

[-] psud@aussie.zone 12 points 2 months ago

I'm like you except that now I'm going to always select an odd number to find who it triggers

TV volume must go up in factors of 5.

[-] Chetzemoka@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Multiples of 3. Multiples of 5 is too large a jump on most systems. Multiples of 3 gives satisfying sound and visuals.

The receiver attached to my TV let's me do ยฝ volume numbers. It's great to raise the volume to 45.5. ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

She squeeze the toothpaste out at the top and leave the tube twisted.

[-] psud@aussie.zone 7 points 2 months ago

That mattered a lot more when the tubes were metal foil

My car works perfectly with multiples of 5, so I prefer that. But you guys wanna hear something really fucking sick? I played a game where the volume would increase with DECIMAL POINTS. And it was borderline impossible to get to a whole number. It was always 8.17 or something. The devs were clearly some kind sociopath. Anyway, I noticed in the last update they changed it to whole numbers, so apparently enough people explained that that sort of thing is just insanity.

The comfortable volume levels on my tv are between 8 and 15, so Iโ€™m using every one of them.

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.

[-] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

My car uses an even more fucked scale. It tops out at 63, of all numbers.

[-] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 14 points 2 months ago

It's because the volume is stored in a 2^6

35 is for when the kid is in the truck.

45 is for my damaged hearing by myself.

60 is all the way up, bass boost off, most songs don't distort the sub.

[-] Theme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 2 months ago

Ending on a 4 or 6 is as bad as ending on a 1 or 9.

[-] grysbok 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Must end in an even number or 5, but cannot end in 4 or 6.

Hah. I have to have my volume set to multiples of 8 because I got so used to doing bit conversions and using systems where I octets are used. Even DooM and the old DooM editors used multiples of 8 for things like floor heights and texture sizes.

I like 33, seems like a solid number.

[-] Gork@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago

Even numbers are the best volume numbers and I will die on this hill.

A real even numbers homie would die on 2 hills

Started as a wedding and ended as an exorcism.

[-] Zorg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 months ago

4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 15, 20, 22, 25, 30, 33, 36, 40, 44, 50, 55, 60, 66, 70, 77, 80, 88, 90, 99

Regardless of if 30, 50 or 100 is max. 13, 14, 16, 18 can be used if absolutely necessary, may get the volume right, but will have to live with the 'dial' is unbalanced.

The odds are good, but the goods are odd.

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

The odd numbers are the correct numbers. The even numbers are just there to spread out the odd numbers.

[-] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 7 points 2 months ago

What if it's a multiple of 5?
