“RTFM” My irritation is that most recipes make a huge amount of assumptions - at least as many as code that assumes a certain version of library. You can get recipes that say things as vague as “prepare the chicken” and aren’t at all clear what they mean, unless you’ve seen someone do it first, but it’s published in a book like you should just know. I hate that. I also frequently see quantities like “1 can” which just drives me insane as though that’s a standard unit.

There’s also plenty of cooking specific jargon, so densely packed that beginners might spend the majority of the recipe looking up what the terms mean. “Chop” parsley - how finely? “Mix the ingredients” how long? What the fuck is Golden Brown actually?

Frankly sounds like his beef should be with his wife. That guy didn’t drain her bank account, she did.

It’s available but not flourishing last I checked. Just to be clear I’m not denigrating it at all, I desperatelywant it to flourish. I pay for nebula, too, as well as patreon for many of my preferred creators, in the hopes that they can explore alternatives to YouTube. Hell, I pay for floatplane and dropout too, as much as I hate the fractured environment it’s creating, I want the most direct way to support the content I watch, but YouTube is almost certainly still my most watched platform

I just keep hoping it gets bad enough for something better to flourish in its place

First thought, someone’s gonna nut into that

This has been the case since SATA revision 3.3, released Feb 2016. So while I may have exaggerated with “ancient”, a brand new PSU certainly shouldn’t still be feeding 3.3v to that pin.

Likely changing the “active” flag or boot stuff, but as the other commenter says, if you aren’t 100% confident, disconnect the scsi

I have done this with dozens of drives and have never had to do any pin blocking. You only need to do that if you’re using an absolutely ancient sata power cable that doesn’t know about the spinup pin change

That’s my absolute #1 wish for jf. I’m sure it’s hard work and people are on it, it excites me to think about

VP9 has pretty wide support, probably due to the Google (and YouTube) backing. I sincerely doubt devices will phase out any codecs, especially not VP9.

AMD video cards have supported hardware decoding of VP9 since vcn1.0 - well before they had support for decoding AV1

AV1 and VP9 are likely going to be your highest efficiency “free” codecs. AV1 is the way to go if you mean free as in free open source. It’s not very likely to be implemented in many TVs or set-top-boxes, but VLC/ffmpeg will be able to decode any of these. Webm uses vp8 or VP9 which are “free”(made by Google) but it’s just more specific settings for sharing online/viewing in browser.

H264/H265 has license fees for non-free software and hardware, but they will be your most widely supported option. H265 is approximately twice as efficient as h264 (meaning you can get the same quality of encode from half the file size).

Regardless of preset I think you can get handbrake to encode something reasonable from any of these codecs. Especially with DVD video you’ll be able to crank through videos with modern high efficiency codecs

It certainly is. ISO 27001 is a framework, not very prescriptive at all. Basically an auditor will ask “how do you ensure data isn’t leaving your facility in the form of discarded hardware?” If you say “here’s a link to our media destruction policy. It says all drives are wiped according to NIST 800-88 cryptographic erasure. If that is not possible or not applicable, the drive is destroyed. Here’s our log of decomissioned equipment” chances are very good they’ll say “OK great let’s move on to the next one” with only minor followup questions.

Just more nonsense showing how broken modern copyright is. It’s too hard to write weasely legalese to just say you have the right to reproduce content submitted to your website, you have to own it entirely. And if you own it, why not sell it?

It is racist for that to happen either direction.

Op said they tried without the firewall connected and had the same results

I’m kind of surprised RED is still small enough and Nikon is still big enough for this to happen. In my mind I expected them to have a thousand+employees

Digital millennium copyright act. It effectively moved the burden of proof for copyright infringement from the copyright owner to the accused, short-circuiting the existing IP laws, among other things.

It is where much of the drama around copyright online stems from. It’s used as a way to quickly stifle anything someone posts that’s something you don’t like.

It made circumventing DRM itself illegal, even if you’re not breaking copyright by doing so (even if it’s for your own research or backups).

Best era of the Internet was before the DMCA. At the time it passed I knew it would kill a lot of my favorite things about the Internet and I sadly wasn’t wrong

Fucking exactly this. We have levels of corruption, inequality, poverty, etc on par with countries like Brazil but our violence stats are compared with countries like Norway.

Nobody should be okay with taking away personal defense options when every day we see corrupt, inept, and abusive police officers with guns that we should apparently depend on instead of ourselves with guns. It’s absurd.

1. Nintendo online is a lot like Xbox live. You can play single player without it (generally) but have to pay to get online/multiplayer

2. yes, you can have multiple accounts on the switch each with their own save, without paying for online for all/any of them.

3. I don’t know if I’d guarantee that. Who knows what dumb services things rely on. If you want something that’ll work maybe consider a more open ecosystem like that of the steam deck or its competitors
