Assuming you have at least a 5.1 capable sound card, the Edifier S760D is the best powered surround set up I’ve been able to find. There really doesn’t seem to be a lot of options anymore but for gaming and movies/tv the surround is definitely worth it.

Edit: Though looking around it seems like they’re basically impossible to find atm

Am I the only one preferring low quality media over high quality one?

I have a very slow Internet connection (5 Mbps down, and even less for upload). Given that, I always download movies at 720p, since they have low file size, which means I can download them more quickly. Also, I don’t notice much of a difference between 1080p and 720p. As for 4K, because I don’t have a screen that can display...

I download everything in the best quality I can find and will sometimes replace it when there’s better quality available. I can afford storage and I don’t really care how long it takes to download as I have other stuff to watch/play anyways.

AI Loophole #1; Your GitHub README.md (lemmy.world)

I used to be the Security Team Lead for Web Applications at one of the largest government data centers in the world but now I do mostly “source available” security mainly focusing on BSD. I’m on GitHub but I run a self-hosted Gogs (which gitea came from) git repo at Quadhelion Engineering Dev....

Seriously. OP might have a legitimate point but they’re making it with the energy of someone trying to convince me that vole people live in the antiposition of the time cube.

The way that I see it, LLMs are a powerful tool to quickly and easily generate an output that should then be checked by a human. The problem is that it’s being shoehorned into every product it feasibly can be, often as an unchecked source of truth, by people who don’t understand it and just don’t want to miss out. If at any point you have to simply trust an LLM is “right”, it’s being used wrong.

I would say chatbots are bad if their job is to provide accurate information, similarly is their use in search engines. Github on the other hand would be an example of a good use, as the code will be checked by whoever is using it. I also like all the image generation/processing uses, assuming that they aren’t taken as a source of truth.

Chronographs ,

Yeah I was thinking more along the lines of customer support chatbots

Kicked macOS to the Curb and Installed Asahi Fedora Gnome

Most of the switching posts are from frustrated windows users making the jump. I’m already a Linux user on my server (Ubuntu for now, going Debian at some point) and a 2014 iMac for tinkering/testing (KDE Neon), and a couple of raspberry pis (raspberry pi os headless) but our main household computer is an M1 Mac mini that my...

You probably have the unit allocation size set too high or low, Mac OS will only mount it if it’s 128k to 1024k.

“Failed over” does, I’ve never heard fell over mean anything but what’s described in the picture.

Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads (www.techradar.com)

Netflix has managed to annoy a good number of its users with an announcement about an upcoming update to its Windows 11 (and Windows 10) app: support for adverts and live events will be added, but the ability to download content is being taken away....

If there’s still downloads available on mobile it’s probably not licensing. Iirc the downloads were only available in shit quality anyways so as always, pirating is a better experience.

Chronographs ,

Sure in theory but for all their posturing and obnoxious DRM methods it hasn’t seemed to work at all.

This was the end credits song from one of the naruto movies iirc

MacBook pro freezes on log in and crashes (sh.itjust.works)

I just got this Mac from my grandma because she said it wasn’t working. It boots and lets me go into recovery mode but crashes in a similar way whenever a loading bar starts. I’ve tried booting every different way and cleared nvram. I didn’t see any clearly visible damage on the logic board, and I’m willing to try any...

Chronographs ,

The logic board is what they call the motherboard (and everything soldered to it)

That’s just 10 bit color, which is a thing and does reduce banding but is only a part of the various HDR specs. HDR also includes a significantly increased color space, as well as varying methods (depending on what spec you’re using) of mapping the mastered video to the capabilities of the end user’s display. In addition, to achieve the wider color gamut required HDR displays require some level of local dimming to increase the contrast by adjusting the brightness of various parts of the image, either through backlight zones in LCD technologies or by adjusting the brightness per pixel in LED technologies like OLED.

Yeah I’ve seen malware that installs their own version of chromium and sets that as the default, I’m assuming this will block that

"Worshippers of Cthulhu" - Lovecraftian city builder

This is going to be the goty when it finally releases on steam in 2035

That first four months wouldn’t include the steam sales which weren’t until a year later, I wonder how they compare

The pro models aren’t usb 2, just the normal models, as those are using the same processor as last gen. The usb controller is in the processor and last gen they were using lightning (which was usb 2.0).

I liked the story but to call the gameplay dull would be an exercise in restraint

I’m not sure if you’ll even see this but yeah I’ve had that happen a lot. I think with a message gets deleted it doesn’t show a deleted message like it does on reddit it’s just gone. I can’t even see your message in the actual thread I’m just replying from my inbox

Chronographs ,

Yeah it kills me when I see someone share something like this in the early stages of development though, like great you just ensured this will never see the light of day

Chronographs ,

What other people said and also that most stuff is available in higher quality than will be streamed to you if it has been released on BDs

Because some of us like the pretty lights, they’re cheap to include and the people that don’t like them can always turn them off

That’s true, but really the exception rather than the rule

Security through obscurity doesn’t, work the vulnerabilities are still there. Also if the vulnerabilities are visible they’re also easier to close.
