What you say?!

I kinda assumed any Mars mission would include some simple centrifugal pod. Seems like even if it's just for sleeping it would be useful.

You know what you doing.

Dispersion and nonlinearities would like to have a word ;)

I'd like to know more.

In all seriousness though, I thought it had some aspects of good, which was odd given that it's satirical commentary on fascism. For instance, gender didn't really matter and women were promoted, and while the shower scene was meant to show how fascism castrates the masses (or something like that, iirc), I thought it was a relatively wholesome scene, all things considered.

I could be wrong, but I think this could be due to how the states' suit is worded? As in, I think it's worded as, "you can't do that in our state," and not, "you can't do that full stop."

From another site:

Attorneys general from 18 other states also sued over the order in federal court in Massachusetts.

Brown [AG filing the suit] noted his lawsuit is similar, but said he felt Washington should lead a separate case because of “specific and unique harms that are brought here.” He also said that “we have a very good set of judges in our bench here in Washington, so I feel like this is the right place.”

(My emphasis.)

So, a good first step, and while this should be struck down in its entirety, my reading is that this was a lawsuit with limited scope, and the injunction matches the limited scope.

If he introduced the hobbits to breakfast burritos and breakfast tacos, I'm pretty sure all would be forgiven.

I would bet that if you remux BBB to an mkv and play that through JF, it won't transcode --- I think it will just remux it back to mp4. Just a guess...

Interesting --- I wonder if it only displays the first reason for having to mess with the stream, e.g., if it's really that it's an unsupported container, video, and audio codec.

Possible to try playing an h264 mkv (maybe Big Buck Bunny)? Since your screenshot is h265 I wonder if it indeed needs to transcode because that's unsupported (in addition to mkv).

unless everyone is using hardware acceleration

I think that's what (almost) everyone does. My little N100 works just fine with QSV.

Is it definitely transcoding? JF can remix without transcoding iirc.

IIRC chvt is a privileged command, which makes sense (if an unprivileged user could execute this command they could effectively brick the computer for a local user).

That said, my understanding is that modern DE's are given a lot of access, so presumably chvt is allowed (and in this case, is required because as others mentioned, password is required). So the only other option is to fail unlocked, which is all kinds of Bad.

No longer available I guess, but I got this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0DDX1K5S1

Only complaints are that it will thermal throttle on long workloads (e.g., transcoding or facial recognition on my entire Immich library), and the SSD slots --- it comes with an mSATA drive in the first slot which is 4 lanes (I think?) and supports mSATA and NVME. The second slot is slower (1 lane?) and only supports NVME. So I had to put my nicer NVME SSD in that slot if I wanted to use the included mSATA drive, but consequently the NVME speed is slower than it should be. (I could swap it to the fast slot but then I couldn't use the included mSATA drive.)

For my use case, both minor issues.

"Wow you signed the document in blood, you must be really hardcore."

"No I'm just cheap."

That's...pretty believable.

No judgement here, you just keep doing what makes you happy.

While neat, this is not self-sustaining --- it's taking more energy to power it than you're getting out of it. (You can build a fusion device on your garage if you're so inclined, though obviously this is much neater than that!)

One viewpoint is that we'll never get clean energy from these devices, not because they won't work, but because you get a lot of neutrons out of these devices. And what do we do with neutrons? We either bash them into lead and heat stuff up (boring and not a lot of energy), or we use them to breed fissile material, which is a lot more energetically favorable. So basically, the economically sound thing to do is to use your fusion reactor to power your relatively conventional fission reactor. Which is still way better than fossil fuels IMHO, so that's something.

If you exclude blocked instances, you're a lot higher than #5...

My home town is in bald eagles' historic habitat, but there were never any growing up. In the past decade or so, they've started to reclaim it, which is pretty cool.

Yeah, we're destroying the planet, but we are doing some things right. And this sort of good stuff only happens because we fight for it.
