Not him, but I use lossy because phones have small capacities and I can't be bothered to have lossless on pc + lossy on phone.

Ok. But I'm saying it's almost impossible that no one knows, as the parent comment suggests.
Edit: my original comment was not intended to be a reply to you, but to the parent.

It would be trivial for the Chinese to determine if covid 19 matches with what they were investigating in the lab, and if the people in the lab were among the first infected.

My mom's PC is plenty fast, and works flawlessly. She has an i7 4790k.
She probably wouldn't mind upgrading to windows 11, but she can't because MS decided that you must have TPM.
Windows 10 will be EOL in a year.
These companies will bs you about how eco friendly they are, but they expect you to throw a perfectly fine computer into the trash.

I'm on Windows 10 which is from 2015. I want the latest software, but an older more stable OS (not Windows 11 yet).
It's true that Windows 10 has had big updates (builds). But maybe that's the right approach?
