Reddit search is nearly useless anyway.

Still a bargain.

Even in terms of story, the content is no longer optimized for quality. It’s optimized for watchability which generally refers to the ease of viewing even when you’re not completely paying attention.

They somehow found a way to even further commercialize and mass produce the moving picture.

I think optical media is a dead platform. Hence, there is an apparent lack of interest I think in implementing alternative solutions. I’ve had success with MakeMKV using the docker container approach, but never tried to rip UHD.

The Corpo-inspired future is that you should not get to own any of your media outright. They will decide when you can stream it and to which devices. Piracy is quickly becoming the only viable option if you value your freedom, and it’s a very unfortunate state of things.

I appreciate a simple piece of software that does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

I installed TF2 on a Mac with only integrated graphics in college and played a ten to twelve FPS slideshow for years.

It was Debian as well.

This doesn’t look like Arch.

I have a simple pile of Markdown files that I edit with Obsidian. I like the simple text file format because it keeps my documentation forwards-compatible. I use OpenWRT at the heart of my network, so I keep I right there in root’s home. Every long while I back it up to my general Documents which is then synced between my high-storage devices with SyncThing.

WOO.

I want a wallpaper.

This sounds to me more like they had a gripe with a WordPress plug-in and that was about the extent of the issue.

I don’t think our governments are going to fall. I do think they are however extensions of corporations and over time are becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish from business.

Even more broadly, you’re seeing regulatory capture. Money gets whatever rules it wants.

I absolutely love the term clankers. It’s the perfect blend of dystopian cyberpunk and the very real threat of AI.

I like this solution because I can have the need filled without a central server. I use old-fashioned offline backups for my low-churn, bulk data, and SyncThing for everything else to be eventually consistent everywhere.

If my data was big enough so as to require dedicated storage though, I’d probably go with TrueNAS.

I main Fedora 42 KDE and NVidia. Drivers are definitely not out of the box, but I found them easy enough to install by adding a repository. Just a data point for consideration.

The equivalent of a pop-up asking you if you’re 18 or older.

Back in the day, I was 18 for like five years.

Awesome! Thanks.

How was memory use actually reduced? I read several articles on this, but I didn’t see anyone talking about how they achieved this.

My experience with childhood computers conditioned me to close everything instantly when I’m done with it even if it means I might have to reload the page later.
