I'm a dev manager... I have 3x4k monitors. I watch server loads, I watch the build pipeline and watch the commit logs etc.

Overkill these days, but I'm also a gamer sooooo....

I've done a bunch of transcoding of things to x265 in the past (as I'm sure everyone is aware transcoding isn't GREAT but cuts down on storage costs). With that said I've now moved to AV1. I don't use GPU encoders at all as I found the quality to be pretty terrible. I just use a custom written ZSH script to go through and check the current format (it also converts audio to OPUS too)

The Venture Bros does have a couple of borderline transphobic jokes about Dr. Mrs. The Monarch in one episode

I've had migraines so yes. But also I had the 'brain zap' side-effects from antipsychotics too and that is very unnerving as it feels like an electric zap in your brain. It makes you wince and twitch.

0/10, wouldn't recommend.

I present Dual_EC_DRBG as a great example of "you can't trust shit"

But also CPUs and motherboards may be compromised too. Whether it's by China or the US.... It's a plausible thing. Intel IME and AMD Secure Processor amongst others...

As someone who grew up with a Commodore 64 I present Bruce Lee

(oddly I can't upload gifs so apologies for the link)

In Australia I know a lot of people who vote purely based on how their parents voted. That includes people voting against their own interests and refuse to do any research that might change their minds...

78% yes so far (City of Melbourne is my area). But it's not enough.

I have a partner who looks indigenous and is scared of how this will all play out. We worried this will normalise racism even more than it has already become.

Stressed out and can't sleep sadly. Work is doing my head in....

As a fan of American Dad - "Yaks Cousteau", "Yakie O", "Yakie Chan" and "Yakety Yak - Don't Talk Back"

I wonder if the writers for Galaxy Quest could sue him too! 😀

I use lemmy obviously. But I've started reading books again rather than doomscrolling until I fall asleep at night, and also more gaming and socialising in general.

I think it was a crutch for my depression.
