Same here. But, regarding digital cables, it's not science; it's logic. There's no chance that a claim that's logically impossible will suddenly be made possible and debatable by future discoveries. Perpetually pretending something is possibly true, when it's been shown to be logically impossible many times, is just lying to yourself and to others.

If you really wanted to be challenged by the other view, you would at least have tried to address it, instead of ducking questions, moving to other threads, and posting veiled insults against people who try to point out the problems with the claims you're reading.

Pretending that something is subjective, when it's not, is a rather petty and dishonest way of avoiding addressing conflicting viewpoints. On a public forum, no one has the right to ignore reality and post false information that's been exposed as such. Repeatedly ignoring criticism, while claiming to be open-minded, is unethical for the same reasons. Acting as if all that's somehow magnanimous is even worse.

If you had any interest in "science and scientific evidence" on the subject of digital cables, you would've discussed it when you were presented with numerous opportunities to do so in other threads instead of just coming here and mischaracterising the people you disagreed with.

Here, again, you present veiled personal attacks and lies while pretending to be open-minded. It's called an ad hominem argument. You ignore the point you don't want to deal with; instead, you focus on posting vague insults directed at nobody in particular. Future posts along these lines will be exposed as such on the forums and reported to the moderator.
Given your self-proclaimed open-mindedness, security, and eagerness to be challenged; I look forward to the day when you will begin to directly address the point I have been trying to make, whether you do that here, via PM, or in some discussion thread specifically seeking knowledge about USB cables.

I learned a long time ago that disagreement can lead to better understanding. I WANT to hear the other side of things. Actually, what I really want is to be challenged by the other view. |

If the OP requests no cable debates or wished to ignore 1s & 0s, that's fine by me and I'm happy to leave them be. Otherwise, it is sanctimonious thread crapping, much like the religious Crusades. |

Science and scientific evidence is not final, not necessarily true and time has shown that so called facts are many times blurry as best. |

Cable believers deserve their time in the sun, unmolested if so requested. If you have a closed mind or believe your way is the only correct answer, then of course you don't want someone to have a right to state a differing viewpoint without direct confronatation and challenge. I simply am not that insecure. |
