I believe a lot of uranium comes from Australia?
Definitely risks in the supply chain there, but probably less than Russia?
I did grow up with a number of mobile games from my childhood, but it seems like the ones people earnestly enjoy are maybe Pokemon Go and then a number of centuries old card games.
What is the purpose of lossless H.264 vs. ProRes or the like?
Is it similar to lossless audio were there's not a ton of optimization you can do?
I personally add a handful of automated systems to my contacts (appointments, time sheet reminders, bills, etc.)
Thanks for making this, I was checking it all day :)
My lukewarm take is that it's conspicuous consumption.
Music is cheaper than it's ever been for the consumer and segregation between genres or bands is non-existent on music streaming.
It's hard to socially signal when everyone can afford to stream and the search bar can show you Sabrina Carpenter just as easily as RYM or /mu/core.
However , you can socially signal if you spend money on an iPod, DAP, better headphones, physical media etc.
rip loongson you will be missed.
I say we go for one Planck time of validity.
I'll fully admit I do.
The point of Plex is sharing your library with less ... technical users.
If I didn't want to do that, I'd not even use Jellyfin- SMB share and mpv would be fine with me.

You're paying for compute?
> software discovery list
You're not kidding, I feel like this is better than most of those awesome-X lists that were popular for a while.
There is a weird chain of wondering what is going to answer my response with Siri AI considering it could be Old Siri, New Siri (local), New Siri (PCC), or ChatGPT...
$429 CAD is crazy for sure but there's a running joke in my group chats of me sending a link to an Apple TV every time someone posts about their Kodi box breaking. It's not set and forget like an Apple TV at all...
CGO=0 came in clutch at previous job when we were deploying Go apps compiled on builders that had a newer glibc than the actual prod server.
IME it was because you already have ssh setup.
it took me too long to realize ActivityPub is basically email.
I guess we only have three protocols, email, irc and BitTorrent.
Less about range (though mine is ~30% hit) and more about a 120V socket not being able to heat the battery to charge effectively in sub-zero temps.
IME pro-EV people will say "L1 is all you need" but then motte-and-bailey and insist having an L2 is essential for cold winters...
After owning an EV for a year I have only truly needed to charge at a fast charger on two trips.
Both times I absolutely did notice the slow "refueling" times, but for 95% of my driving "around town" it is _so_ nice.
I’m surprised how popular Discord is for as “IT guy” and information dense the UI is tbh.
A co-worker of mine lives nearby and he finds it ironic they do not have recreational cannabis.
I posted the same below, they’ve had similar bugs for the ~decade I’ve used them.
Nobody has mentioned this but the tweet in question is a screenshot of a UniFi dashboard which is notorious for miscalculating bandwidth usage.
LG UltraFine was pretty close.
Perhaps outdated but when I was hunting a Loongson laptop (just recently deprecated by OpenBSD) I got the vibe most Chinese nationals wanted x86 and pirated Windows to use software like anyone else.
I love curating my photo library but after I kick the bucket I have to assume the number of photos that my future relatives care about will number in the dozens.
I swear every Pixel model people write "well it's a good smartphone minus the 'kills itself for no reason' bug".
What user space APIs have they been routinely breaking?
A graph about social changes that cuts off at 2022 is beyond worthless.
