“De-privatize” is a really awkward phrasing for “nationalize”. Weird the way this article seems to dance around the word.

Quantity and quality aren’t the same, but it does feel inevitable that this would happen

Sorry, there are no PPAs that have all codecs compiled in? Is it illegal to distribute or something?

Can’t you just install ffmpeg from a PPA rather than compile it yourself?

No, it’s one person who is so unironically salty that they post memes about how much they hate Linux several times a day.

Hey, don’t be sexist. There’s plenty of otherwise-tech-illiterate ditsy dudes in the same work pool.

My feed is aware of my politics and throws everyone I’m friends with or follow (and some who I’ve unfollowed) who wrote something objectively wrong or stupid that’s biased the other way politically.

It’s literally all rage bait unless I go in and manually block it from showing me those people at all.

I mean, they don’t HAVE to, but if they choose not to, the board of directors will push for a change in CSUITE personnel

If the board doesn’t maximize profit, the shareholders can sue them, so functionally they do have to.

Am I right to assume you’ve got a laptop? Otherwise 70C is a terrible temp to hit at idle

Generally the app is better. Compatible with more container formats, audio formats (surround sound, Dolby digital, etc), and has hardware supported decoding for h265 video in addition to h264.

At least in the case of a Jellyfin server, you can download media locally when you know you’ll be without internet

This dude’s videos impress me to no end

I’d argue the biggest change was last year. Because of the banning/restrictions of sulfuric emissions from ships trading in the Pacific, a huge quantity of smog was cleared from the atmosphere. Unfortunately for all of us, that smog had been reflecting some sunlight and depressing the effects of climate change in the short term. While those sulfur-based emissions clear out of our atmosphere in as little as 2-3 weeks, carbon emissions take centuries to fully clear out of the atmosphere.

In other words, we had been unintentionally geoengineering the climate to be slightly cooler before 2023. That’s why it was such a huge jump in temperature last year and has no signs of reversing course. The good news about this is that it means that we can geoengineer our climate to be cooler in the short term in order to prevent greater catastrophe because we already were. The bad news is that we likely will have to.

Did what I say remind you of him? I thought he was primarily famous for abusive language.

Respect, like trust, is earned, never demanded and is easily lost.

You can make others fear you with force, but if they do they’ll never properly respect you.

Talking in oblique metaphors like the way you did to the person you banned won’t help them learn from their mistake either.
