Linux@lemmy.ml•New Ubuntu Release Just Dropped at the Farmer's MarketEnglish
22·2 years agoI prefer this Ubuntu
The article writer is an idiot and you may be too. It says nothing about DEI expertise.
This is equivalent to dunking on scientists when a flat earther claims to be a “science expert”.
I think the largest challenge though is maintaining the distribution and managing the associated upfront costs.
Existing large content producers could likely afford to handle this but new producers could struggle paying to seed their content.
Though I do think overall this is more achievable than people give it credit for:
- YT videos don’t need huge bandwidth for a sustained period; only for short bursts. Most views come in within a week.
- Content is probably localized to specific countries. Less need to replicate across the globe.
- Let the source prefer to seed the highest quality and other peers downsample and replicate as needed.
- Doesn’t need YT scale. Tons of YT “content” is spammers leeching essentially free hosting from YT. No one needs to seed their videos if they don’t want to.
- 1080p is still fine for YT videos. h265 is very efficient (though downsampling 265 isn’t great). Don’t need 4k for most videos.
Just adding to the chorus that while it’s cool and conveniently sized the screen just falls apart.
lol sure loser whatever
The fuck is with these stupid bots that try to turn every conversation into “muh immigration”

Technology@lemmy.world•Inside the 'Nightmare' Health Crisis of a Texas Bitcoin TownEnglish
81·2 years agoI agree. So if people are hearing it and demonstrating it with decibel readers then there’s probably little to no sound dampening.

264·2 years agoIt could be but also datacenters are ridiculously loud and the sound is very high pitched. Would drive anyone nuts if they could hear it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the most unusual spirit you have in your home bar?English
2·2 years agoAbsinthe would be closest but this is essentially the anise and then a sweet grape flavor to it. A bit less complexity in ingredients yet it still has quite a lot of depth depending on the bottle.

21·3 years agoIt’s not the oil of the day that they’re trying to stop burning but the oil of the many years to come.
Making the activity of driving as inconvenient as possible is the goal and will work.

Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•"The first photo shows my grandchildren hiding from Russian terrorists' missiles... we evacuated them to Israel... In the second photo, the same people are hiding from Hamas terrorists' missiles."English
11·3 years agoSpoken truly as someone who has never been in such a situation and agreed with by fellow ignorants. Wonderful.


Even the word “accident” is part of that downplaying.
