The CHIPS (etc) Act was enough to justify his presidency by itself, IMO. It was insane that such a huge percentage of the world’s semiconductor research and production were concentrated in one country, especially a small one that China has been eyeing like a feral cat for years.
At 80+Gb that means it’s a straight blu-ray rip without being recompressed at all, which is perfect if you have a nice home theater system. You definitely notice the difference then. But if you’re just watching on an average monitor with headphones or such, then you’re honestly better off finding a smaller version that someone properly compressed down a bit.
Yes, nearly 71% globally.
Apple is the biggest really only in North America.
Drop has kinda gone to shit anyways. Though I have gotten some good headphones off them. But I ordered a set of wood IEM’s back in January. Got and update like a month later that the supply chain got messed up, will ship in June. Current order status is “Reserved for shipment. Estimated ship date: July 10”. So like a week ago. And all the emails from them lately have been
“Check out these amazing keycaps!11!1!”
“Hey look, we got more keycaps!!!”
“Limited time only super-special keycaps!”
“Hey, you looking for some keycaps?!”
It’s not what it used to be, just like everything else on the internet.
Cpu is a ryzen 2600, it doesn’t have an iGPU.
MakeMKV (at least in windows) lets you rip a remuxed mkv without having to rip everything. So you can just select the titles, audio, and subtitle tracks you want without ripping all the other stuff. You don’t need to make a full backup and then pull all that out.
Hitting the kbin logo takes you back to your feed, instead of having to click it and then go over and click the Home button. That’s a huge plus, IMO.
This actually pushed me and a couple of friends to subscribe to Nord; I’d been thinking I should get a VPN for a while anyways. I looked through VPN’s and I ended up liking Nord’s feature set and price vs ExpressVPN. Never thought I’d use them back when they were EVERY video’s sponsor on YouTube lol.
Well by all reports they did a shitty job, so…
I’ve always loved anything Star Wars that didn’t really involve Jedi. The universe is incredibly diverse and interesting, and cutting out the light side vs dark side trope most star wars content is centered on lets writers make really interesting characters and situations. Like in Mandandolrian the scene with Bill Burr confronting the Imperial officer that spearheaded the Burning Khan massacre was just fantastic, regardless of it being star wars.
Kbin seems to be pretty ambitious in that it’s aiming at being a hub for (almost) all of the fediverse. So Lemmy’s reddit-like forums, mastodon’s quick posts a la Twitter, and peertube’s youtube - style services - it’s looking to bring all of those fediverse platforms so they’re all accessible in one place rather than having to sign up for each. That way it’s an easy place to go to for your decentralized social media content. So really it’s just looking to make the fediverse more easily accessible and improve the user’s experience.
It’s a pretty big idea and it’s pretty damn impressive what Ernest accomplished before this big fediverse boom. I’m excited to see where it goes.
Link that gets rid of the slideshow cancer
Happy that Looper is on there, that movie got surprisingly little exposure it seems like.
Yeah I’m looking forward to trying it too. My only concern is if they’re growing fat cells along with the muscle cells, otherwise it’s just not going to taste as good. I much prefer a good strip or ribeye instead of a lean filet.
Gotta say, I’m really excited for the work you’re doing on Artemis. Kbin’s mobile site is really good especially considering how young it is, but I miss the smoothness of a real app. Thank you for jumping in on it so quickly and enthusiastically!!
The bots have already started… I thought we’d have more time…
Don’t forget to buy Ernest a coffee so he can put some finances towards upgrading the server!
Alyx came out 4 years ago, and is recognized as one of the best VR titles of all time. It’s a full 15 hour game, so not a tech demo. I’d say that’s a hit.
