I’m with you all the way, really, except that, truly, KDE plasma and dark mode are the superior choices, obviously :)
Just a stranger trying things.

I would like to simultaneously better organize, rename and move my ISO files while still being able to seed them. How do people do both? my download folder is not where I want to keep my iso files for consumption and the often cryptic names of iso files can be annoying to navigate and manage so how can this be improved without sacrificing seeding? thanks!
I’m guessing this technology requires specific implementation into the game? Nonetheless, it’s so great to see these kind of efforts very suitable for battery based laptops and handhelds, they fit perfectly this use case imo.
Exactly, this is about compression. Just imagine a full HD image, 1920x1080, with 8 bits of colors for each of the 3 RGB channels. That would lead to 1920x1080x8x3 = 49 766 400 bits, or roughly 50Mb (or roughly 6MB). This is uncompressed. Now imagine a video, at 24 frames per second (typical for movies), that’s almost 1200 Mb/second. For a 1h30 movie, that would be an immense amount of storage, just compute it :)
To solve this, movies are compressed (encoded). There are two types, lossless (where the information is exact and no quality loss is resulted) and lossy (where quality is degraded). It is common to use lossy compression because it is what leads to the most storage savings. For a given compression algorithms, the less bandwidth you allow the algorithm, the more it has to sacrifice video quality to meet your requirements. And this is what bitrate is referring to.
Of note: different compression algorithms are more or less effective at storing data within the same file size. AV1 for instance, will allow for significantly higher video quality than h264, at the same file size (or bitrate).
To be fair, resolution is not enough to measure quality. The bitrate plays a huge role. You can have a high resolution video looking worse than a lower resolution one if the lower one has a higher bitrate. In general, many videos online claim to be 1080p but still look like garbage because of the low bitrate (e.g. like on YouTube or so). If you go for a high bitrate video, you should be able to tell pretty easily, the hair, the fabric, the skin details, the grass, everything can be noticeably sharper and crisper.
Edit: so yeah, I agree with you, because often they are both of low bitrate…
I’m surprised, if I recall, all but one LCD model were to be phased out in November, or at least that’s what they said when they announced the OLED version. Were the supplies that large?
I think that’s what we see with apple silicon, right?
ChatGPT is already free, even GPT-4o since recently.
Granted, you do need an account which requires a phone number, but there are no financial costs.
I hope this kicks off a more mainstream accessibility to RISC-V chips and PCs. We know nothing of the pricing yet, but given the regular framework laptop 13 has great specs overall, this could have a lot of potential. I’m hopeful!
Good luck on your defense! Goodspeed
How much responsibility would a service like Signal have, if they were to inadvertently host a private group for pirated content? I believe signal groups can have up to 1000 members, and these members can be pretty anonymous given the need to only share an ephemeral username which can not be linked to a phone number or any other identity? Can they claim plausible deniability and not do anything?
Is that the limiting factor for the UI responsiveness? Or are you talking about the fact that the parsing and metadata querying takes days?
Have you just installed jellyfin? The scraping for metadata for me took days literally. And the difficult time is that during the scraping, the interface is very slow.
You can monitor the scraping/parsing progress in settings > dashboard > libraries. The libraries have a sort of circular progress bar with a percentage symbol (only visible in this view) when parsing is ongoing.
You may want to change the following setting in that case: Settings > dashboard > playback > resume > Maximum resume percentage.
It will set the threshold of what is considered played (in percentage of video length). Default is 90%. Try lowering it?
Have used my BT headset for almost a year and never had an issue. What are you referring to?
