I don’t disagree about archiving. Though for a local collection, I think the space savings of AV1 are worth it.
Especially for grainy footage, which is extra costly in h265. The noise analysis and synthesis in AV1 is killer, IMHO. But of course… it’s not the same noise.
Not sure there has ever been a better example of good training and calm under pressure than the crew he commanded on 13. Fucking legend, RIP
He’s in it. He’s the guy who greets Tom Hanks and shakes his hand on he recovery ship after they reenter.
Not only is everything smaller, but the codec looks better. Compression artifacts when AV1 is really pushing it at lower bitrates are more like… pointillism? They resemble grain instead of the fuzzy squares you can get with 264 or 265, and it is especially better in dark scenes.
This. Businesses running leaner and leaner to comical levels so the C-suite can make more profit. It’s not my problem if they’re too shortsighted because of the dollar signs – my vacation time is a necessary component of my employment agreement and my compensation.
Gotta get rid of whoever is reporting the numbers. Use God-Emperor Trump’s tried and true tactic: if you can’t see it, it doesn’t exist.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
They cover the tiny hands
The party of small government sure likes to put its meat gloves into corporate decisions lately
If only there had been a sign that it wasn’t a good idea to put these clowns in office. Just one more sign, on top of the million-or-so that I thought were common knowledge.
Who is paying her legal team?
I’ve been saying for a long time that apartment dwelling is a huge detriment to EV adoption. If you can’t charge it, you can’t (and shouldn’t) buy it.
I’d love to help the environment too, but this is a good example of one problem blocking a partial solution to another.
Because the gerrymandering exists exactly so opposition votes don’t matter.
What if she was buddies with the President of the United States?
I’m sure an open letter will be just as effective as every other action so far.
More wasted resources for the pipe dreams of a rich boy.
Please stop paying Nintendo to fuck over its own customers.
Is this enough evidence to say that MAGA is running purely on accelerationism at this point?
(If you are a USian) your conservative dad should probably know that corporate tax rates in the US were as high as 52% in the 1950s. Imagine the social programs that could be paid for which such things.
Most of the people who say they want to go back to the 1950s for political reasons don’t mean it. They just want to cherrypick certain things and claim everything used to be better. As with anything, there’s a lot of extra details, but I’d be willing to bet that a lot of these folks want the casual racism but not the taxes.
There’s a whole scene in the film where they’re freaking out and Tom Hanks asks something like “are we on vox?!” and then is chill once he actually calls in to Houston. I get the idea of artistic license for dramatic effect, but I always thought it was such a slight on the professionalism of that crew to even claim there was such a breakdown.
