Can confirm, at least for Acast distribution, I generally get no ads when I’m not in an English speaking country at the time of download.

However, iHeart podcasts are always absolutely crammed full of ads everywhere.

Fabric Bellard’s body of work is fairly strong evidence for time travel having happened already.

Or just genius.

this is why h264ify is a pre-installed extension in RPiOS’ builds of browsers.

made sense, until the Pi 5 dropped h264 hw decode. still waiting for a good explanation of that.

It’s a good thing projects like Armbian are steadily improving support for Rockchip-based SBCs, to open up the market beyond Raspberry.

IBM standard cards are one 48th of a barleycorn thick. I believe IBM measured from the 1932 Iowa Reference Barleycorn, now kept in the vault inside Mt Rushmore.

nor decoding 264 :(

a rather annoying regression from the 4 to the 5, especially when the 5 now supports more MIPI cameras where live encoding is crucial.

at least on a 4, this command will misleadingly return “disabled” even though your programs are able to use hwdec, because the h.265 decoder isn’t part of the Pi 4’s GPU, it’s elsewhere.

Freezing temperatures being obvious with a minus number is an advantage, not a problem, IMO. Easy to see from the bigger negative number when water will freeze more quickly, when snow is more likely to lie on the ground, etc.

americans really just have to remember a long list of random numbers like how many ounces a full pint is supposed to be, huh.

i’m imagining a whole day of school like, “when people say nickel, they mean 5 cents, a dime is 10 cents, 12 inches is a foot, 3 feet is a yard, water freezes at 32F and boils at 212F…” and the children just crying into their notebooks by the time they get to miles and tons and acres.

Only five bodies were recovered, which is about normal for the crew of the plane. There is no evidence of any prisoners. None of the photos or videos from the crash site show a large number of bodies. Russia lied, as usual.

using the browser isn’t necessary to keep your watch history up to date.

yt-dlp can log in as you by reading your cookies from your browser, and, with the optional --mark-watched flag, mark your downloaded videos as watched in your YT account.

A lot of words to to express “I’m an American who doesn’t even have a passport.”

Can’t even imagine a walkable city, and talking about it like it’s a far-off sci-fi concept, rather than a lot of peoples’ actual everyday life. Yikes.

Those are both serious blockers for me tbh, I like to take it out away from home and watch YT / Nebula vids. I’m keeping am eye on Asahi’s progress though.

I have an M1 Macbook Air (under half price secondhand thanks to a superficial dent on a corner) and while I agree I love having such powerful hardware that sips battery so sparingly, MacOS can go eat a whole bag of stale dicks. Homebrew makes it… tolerable, but I’m holding out hope for that new Qualcomm ARM laptop - the recent benchmarks beat Apple’s chips handily.

So… do they need external cracks?

(am the same person you replied to)

i actually don’t disagree much with your points. i still watch most of the videos posted on both platforms on youtube, not Nebula, tbh.

for me it’s mostly because Nebula haven’t made an official Kodi addon yet, and the unofficial one (by slyguy) often has buffering issues (which i don’t blame on slyguy).

i sometimes “fake watch” good videos again on the nebula website to help that creator boost their revenue share of my subscription. a very clumsy hack.

all that said - i am very glad that the videomakers i follow seem happy with Nebula, and since they say it’s helping them make better videos, i will continue to subscribe.

i don’t know about the ‘invite only’ thing. i have recommended in yt comments to a couple of people i often watch (Joe Blogs is one, i think also Our Own Devices, DiodeGoneWild, perhaps also Denys Davydof and/or Jake Broe) that they should ask about joining, but i assume my messages weren’t seen, in the depths of yt comments. as for if it’s easy for new creators to join, again don’t know for sure but there seem to be some regular Neb uploaders without much/any yt presence.

Nebula.tv has lots of excellent videos, a healthy community of creators, a sustainable business model, a lot of good communication between subscribers and management, and I believe is not in financial trouble so far. It’s not free, but it’s affordable.

is Bogdan another cognate, then? from the same root?

“indentation is indentation!” (mr_incredible_cereal.jpg)

it may look messy, but would you actually rather Python didn’t support some inconsistency when the intent is clear?

being exact just for the sake of being pedantic isn’t useful.
