Just like it took a decade for media and mainstream to pick up Reddit, it’ll take a decade for that to seep through.

They are for adult weirdos.

Where do I sign up?

IIRC Windows has an accessibility feature where the cursor jumps to the primary default action in opening dialogs.

Doing it screenshot based seems inefficient if y du could iterate through windows and controls.

Start by hoarding your own data, on your own, existing devices/hardware.

Consider how to categorize or not your data.

Going beyond “that you remember”, Wikipedia has a list.

lol; Thanks Dave Kinne! /s

Note: This is from August. So it’s been a while since then.

I will use AVC and HEVC terminology for h264/x264 and h265/x265 respectively.

For video, you get jumps of compression quality from AVC to HEVC, from 8-bit to 10-bit, and from HEVC to AV1.

Depending on your source material, changing compression settings, like target quality, variable bitrate, etc, can also have significant gains. It will depend on your source and target though, and may need some testing to get “right”. If you’re looking for the best compression, that may be on a file by file basis, because different kinds of video have significantly different compression behavior or concerns. That’s likely not feasible for a mass of files though.

Playback compatibility should also be considered. AVC mp4 is the most compatible, right now, if you consider all kinds of and older mobile and embedded devices. If you’re fine with modern or desktop, you can go for the best compression codecs.

To get an idea of encoding time investment and quality, you can use ffmpeg with default quality settings, and target the different encoding targets.

AV1 10-bit, Opus audio:

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a libopus -c:v libsvtav1 -pix_fmt yuv420p10le out_av1-10bit-opus.mkv

AVC mp4 (when targeting mp4 these codec settings are the default, so in fact don’t have to be specified):

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a aac -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p out_avc-aac.mp4

HEVC 10-bit, opus:

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a libopus -c:v libx265 -pix_fmt yuv420p10le out_hevc-10bit-opus.mkv

so the issue is not digital, but DRM

even smaller than it already is (~100MB)

any non-video source?

But it’s still digital when pirated…

Will we call it WeirdPress?

Is that what the pilot calls “streaming through the cloud”?

Simulating data in flight. Makes sense.

The company has reported net losses every quarter since becoming a public company, with last twelve months (LTM) losses totaling $1.07 billion.

it’s crazy that that’s feasible and not already an issue. And for such a super popular platform. If it’s not profitable now, when will it be?

When did it go public?

Roblox went public on the NYSE via a direct listing on March 10th, 2021, and has a current market capitalization of ~$27 billion.

Interviews reveal Roblox effectively has two sets of books for counting users: one for internal business decisions, in which multiple accounts are ‘de-alted’, and one used by the finance team that reports higher metrics to investors.

To better understand the company’s reported engagement, we hired a technical consultant that monitored the top ~7,200 Roblox games across ~2.1 million Roblox servers, collecting 297.7 million rows of real-time player data.

They did extensive, founded analysis.

Looks like they publish source on release as a source zip https://sourceforge.net/projects/hedgecam2/files/

Can you explain what you mean by free speech?

Is the free choice of content selection algorithm free speech? Isn’t the speech, the content, there either way, and could be selected through other alternative algorithms?

Is using deliberately engaging or addicting design free speech? Isn’t the speech, the content, there either way?

They’re describing one kind of free proprietary software and company setup. Which is valid. But the title claiming “[all] always ends in tears” isn’t supported by that.

Half Life Alyx

My interpretation has always been that it loads [too] many files. File performance on many [small] files is noticeably, significantly slower on Windows than it is on Linux.
