Oh no slight inconvenience, how will he ever deal with it

I believe the error was in the AV1 license NOT having a “if you enforce patent-license-fees on this codec, THEN you can’t use this codec” type of coercion…

I thought those provisions were usually enforced among the members of a patent pool, to ensure that any licensing customer can trust in the pools word to not be shaken down a second time by an individual pool member later.

So since AM1 isn’t forming a patent pool to sell licenses, and Dolby isn’t part of the Alliance for Open Media, it wouldn’t really apply either way, no?

Oh wait, actually there is something like this, see point 1.3 here: https://aomedia.org/license/patent-license/

webm can contain VP8, VP9 or AV1 video streams. I guess if you mean webm with VP9 inside it could be one solution, though less efficient. Also Google donated VP9 and what they had for VP10 to the development efforts of of AV1, so if AV1 is found to be infringing it's a negative signal for VP9 too... Edit: Sorry I was a bit off-topic. I was thinking of the action that Dolby is currently taking against Snapchat for their AV1 use.

Is that the "you"-form they use in Spain but not America? Or am I mixing it up with Portuguese? Funny meme either way!

On the MacBook Neo, I can even opt to not use MacOS at all and instead install Asahi Linux if I so choose (assuming Apple continues to allow custom kernel booting as it has in M-series Macs). The author is jumping the gun a lot there. The Asahi team recently started getting the M3 support kind of working, but still need to reverse engineer the new GPU and various other things that make them different from M1 and M2 laptops. It will be years until we get anywhere close to support of the Neo.

Oh man I never realized there was a separate non-phone Motorola company that remained where it was. Thanks for the explanation.

I was recently thinking, this recruitment drive must be heaven for the common proud boys brownshirt. Who of them wouldn’t sign up, they get to harm immigrants, they get cover from the very top if they catch public attention, they get gear, and they might even get paid for it.

That’s pretty old news

Don’t use SSDs for a server… lol

I ordered an S10 tab, paid my first rate, they finally try to order it Who is “they” in this? Some sort of intermediary you using?

I take issue with this forced distinction they are making Micron, like Samsung and SK Hynix, already supplies memory chips directly to third-party brands such as G.Skill and ADATA. Even without Crucial-branded kits, Micron DRAM continues to reach consumers through other manufacturers, meaning overall supply remains largely unchanged. Nobody ever officially suggested the Crucial supply was likely to shift to the other manufacturers for consumers. On the contrary people expect this to be a step towards a general redistribution of manufacturing capacity towards HBM for parallel compute products. By comparison, Samsung exiting SATA SSDs removes an entire class of finished consumer products from one of the world’s largest NAND suppliers. Tom argues that this is why the Samsung move is “worse” for consumers: it directly affects how many drives are available, not just who sells them. If you wanted you could make the same argument as for Micron. Who says the Samsung NAND couldn’t be bought by other OEMs to make consumer SSDs. It’s just as possible as the Micron supply shifting to other OEMs who make consumer RAM sticks. To me neither are likely. The manufacturing capacity both companies are pulling from the consumer market in both cases is going to go to the higher profit margin parallel compute server market. Neither is worse than the other, they are both equally bad news for us consumers.

I don’t get how this way exploited in practise. Even if the signatures on the downloaded packages weren’t checked properly, how would you modify the content of the XML file returned from notepad-plus-plus.org/update/getDownloadUrl.php?v… ? For that you’d have to break or MITM the TLS too, no? The usual case for TLS MITM is when a company decides DPI is more important than E2E encryption and they terminate all TLS on the firewall, but if the firewall is compromised there would be much easier avenues of entry other than notepad++

Even Deerannosaurus Rex would need to munch a while on that pile

If you’re familiar with the pragmatic application of the subjunctive in your own language or others, that may help When I tried using my dative and accusative case knowledge from German with the objective case “whom” it made me sound weird to the native English speakers I know (American, Australian, Northern English), who mostly stopped using “whom”. So in general I’d advise caution with this approach.

Yeah has a bit of those Ben Shapiro vibes. Don’t you think people would sell their houses on the coastline and move?

I wish people (especially journalists) would get it through their skulls already: Vehicles don’t communicate with satellites. GNSS (like GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, or BeiDou) do not use two way communication. The satellite can therefore not know the position of a GNSS receiver. Instead the satellites send timestamps and their positions, the receiver uses that information to calculate its own position. If the system with the receiver needs to report its position to someone they typically use some form of terrestrial communication, like mobile phone networks. With that knowledge the comment by /u/imetators@lemmy.dbzer0.com makes a lot more sense than whatever the article is trying to imply about satellite failures.

If she’s livestreaming too she might need a broadcasting license, like Gronkh (predates grok, no relation, big German streamer). Better get on that paperwork too.

Last weekend my PC didn’t start up, it was beeping an error code. I was so scared of it being a memory issue while diagnosing. But luckily it was a video error code. And after swapping out the GPU and still getting the beep, even more luckily, it turned out to be the display being stuck in a bad state and just needing a reboot.
