HP can go fuck themselves

Imagine hosting an event so lame that it makes international news solely because of how incredibly lame it was. Just damn.

You can pirate media that uses that new blu ray drm by plugging a capture card into the overpriced compatible DVD player and recording the video. Also, it’s a way to transfer saved content from a dvr as their hard drives are always encrypted (do those still exist). The video stream on all this stuff is encrypted with hdcp to prevent this but there exist hdcp strippers. It seems to still be possible to buy them even on Amazon. Stock up before they get banned. Frankly I’m surprised they aren’t banned already.

I hope they actually end up calling it the Very Big Disc ™

The only disadvantage of display port that I can think of is that it’s harder to find capture devices (or at least Linux compatible ones) that have display port. Generally no one cares about that stuff though. I use capture cards because I sometimes do stuff involving other computers and it’s 1000 times more convenient to have a vlc window floating around with the display output.

No one seems to have this use case besides me, I’m just glad that there exist capture cards fast enough to do playback in real-time and not a 5 second delay. I don’t stream.

Oh shit now Elon is going to try to buy all of Linux.

Edit: thanks for the gold kind stranger

They definitely won’t be selling any of that to scammers /s

That’s why they don’t put urinals in the womens bathroom probably

When it fucks up, good luck fixing it without an os reinstall. That’s the price. If it was easier/possible to restore to a fully working state after it gets borked, it would be really good.

I don’t really subscribe to Arch or Debian being better or worse than each other. I encounter issues just as frequently on both. Maybe it’s a little harder to do things in Debian because the repositories don’t update as often but the AUR is where a lot of important stuff is and that’s a pain to deal with too.

Either way it’s better than using Windows.

Because zoneminder sucks and the other ones are kind of corporate and crappy?

They must not be very good hackers if they have to use a third party service instead of making their own local ai and using it for their shenanigans 🤷

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed so in the grand scheme of things, everything is 100% energy efficient one way or another.

They already replaced the default start menu with a bullshittier one.

They’ll still find a way to make every game barely run and they’ll still find a way to make windows really slow even if we have 300Thz cpus. And your old 5.9ghz threadripper will be considered too shitty to be used for anything.

I can see the headlines now. “GOP passes bill banning civilian ownership of anything faster than a Pentium III.”
