  • We're never going to have better internet in the USA, are we?

  • Rural island off the coast of a european country:

    10g fiber for $65/mo (I don't even think they cared, I asked for more and I think they made up a number).

    House literally down the street from google in silicon valley:

    Comcrap $100 for shit cable, I'm paying $250 for actual upload speed.

    This country is ruled by the corrupt.

  • Add a discrete GPU or not?

  • Google is pushing av1 because of patents, but 266 is just plain better tech, even if it's harder to encode.

    This same shit happened with 265 and vp9, and before that, and before that with vorbis/opus/aac.

    They'll come back because it's a standard, and has higher quality.

    Maybe this is the one time somehow av1 wins out on patents, but I'm encoding av1 and I'm really not impressed, it's literally just dressed up hevc, maybe a 10% improvement max.

    I've seen vvc and it's really flexible, it shifts gears on a dime between high motion and deep detail, which is basically what your brain sees most, while av1 is actually kind of worse than hevc at that to me, it's sluggish at the shifts, even if it is better overall.

  • So glad for Trump

  • Abortion in the red states, and that was work he did his last term.

    Wait till he's back in office, he's nothing if not vindictive.

    Jump

  • Yeah, using the a750 the same.

    Can't wait for next Gen arc with vvc (x266) support.

  • Intel has excellent transcode, even in their igpus.

    I use an arc750 specifically for transcode, av1 runs at ludicrous speeds, but don't do an Nvidia, they kind of suck because they dont support vaapi, only nvenc/nvdec and vdpau.

    What house or town theme from video games would you be cool with listening to in that space forever?

    Isn't that literally silence?

    edit: That's silence, you asshole! :p

  • haha, pinnace,

  • What song did you love until you found out what it was about?

    Jump

  • Yeah, never leave that job half done.

  • What song did you love until you found out what it was about?

  • I can hear that.

    Staying sober at home with family can be hard enough, but when traveling, that's hardcore mode.

  • 99 luftballoons is similar.

    The 80s was oddly dark.

  • Should Ukraine build the bomb? How would you feel if they did?

    Jump

  • Because?

    This is the whole russian ethos, you must give them everything they want, because they don't care.

    It's like the idiot who threatens to eat his own shit, and then does it.

    We get that they have less respect for themselves and peace, but we learned a long time ago that giving in to those people doesn't win peace, only more war, because you're rewarding their behavior.

    It is an absolutely credible threat that we could wipe out the entire Russian armed forces with a fraction of our power, and they know that.

    You honestly think they pushed so hard to get Trump in power for no reason? We are the only thing holding them back.

  • Should Ukraine build the bomb? How would you feel if they did?

  • Then let's threaten to nuke moscow tomorrow if he doesn't immediately withdraw.

    We'll make it a really intense threat too, take all our missiles to defcon 1, deploy all our forces, have squadrons of f-22s and f-35s surrounding Ukraine and obviously tail all their borei.

    "It's just a threat, bro!"

  • And?

    Pah-wraiths are Bajoran.

    Make Bajor Great Before/Always!

  • Graphics card upgrade

    Jump

  • Yeah, the ryzens are great too.

    Full amd will treat you well, I'm running dual xeons and a Radeon pro with an arc 770 just for av1 encode right now.

    Next round going full epyc.

  • Amd knocks Nvidia into a hat on Linux, the drivers are just too incredible.

    With the exception of AI, where Nvidia is just plain the gold standard.

    Intel is fine, it has exceptional video encoding and works.

  • Horsepower required for 10 Gbit router?

    Jump

  • Core i3 is fine, celeron can route, but you don't have as much headroom, or room for firewall rules, etc. Recommend Intel x520 or mellanox cx3 or newer, though the cx2 is perfectly fine.

    The bs about bsd being slower is maybe 15 years old at best?

    Bsd is a monster for routing.

    Run 25gbe routing, still can get by on your 4 core, but I throw some serious xeons at it anyway.
