And this is why I buy torx acres for anything I’m building myself. Unfortunately most premade things I buy have this crappy screw type.

And that exact reason is why physical media is out for the next generation. They want to control your ability to share, lend, and re-sell

I feel this one

I had key caps like that in grad school both in my home and school computers. Made it real awkward when friends would come over and try to use my computer for something (e.g. look up some songs to put on a Spotify playlist).

I guess my question is more, is the “brave” one as good as uBlock? Or does it miss some things? Sounds like performance is better.

My only thought about using both would be if the “brave” version is more performant, but less protective, it could quickly get rid of most of the ads, and let uBlock get the rest, reducing how many are filtered at greater performance cost. But I’m sure that’s based on a gross misunderstanding of how it all works.

So should you use this now? Or keep uBlock origin? Or enable both for maximum protection?

I always just thought it was the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon at work… but who knows, I could be wrong.

HDR, or Dolby Vision? From my research, anything less than the Panasonic UB820 either has missing features, or longevity issues.

Even still, 180 euro is well above the under $40 you can lots of DVD and even Standard Blu Ray

Personally, I grabbed a MakeMKV compatible UHD optical drive from eBay for $150, and just remux my discs to Plex… and then use CoreELEC on the Ugoos AM6B+ to ensure proper Dolby Vision and Lossless Audio support…. but I know that’s not exactly a mainstream option.

Amazon has 3 for $33 sales a couple times a year. I just got Wicked (2024), F1 and Sinners in 4k for $11 each.

When 4K players cost $500 to get something considered “good but not great”… yeah no wonder no ones buying

Early 2000s to mid 2010s movies shot digitally? Sure. Film shot movies, especially on 35mm or larger, absolutely look better in 4k. Especially when they’ve been restored from the negative and converted to HDR for a 4k release.

There’s a lot of older movies out there where the UHD Blu Ray is the definitive version to own, looking significantly better than any prior version (and will likely never look better).

2x? Try 4x+ for fast DDR5

If I had done that, I would have never gotten the firmware update to enable VRR support on my HDMI 2.1 ports…

More tvs need to support G-Sync and Freesync (like my Hisense) instead of just supporting the HDMI version of VRR (like my Sony…).

Isn’t getting at protected content pretty trivial anyway? At least that’s my impression from how easy it is to find basically anything.

I have a DP to HDMI cable… it still won’t do HDMI 2.1. No 4k120 without DSC… no VRR…

Did my upgrade back in April. Got 64GB for $240. Now I checked the price on the same kit… $700. Just crazy.

My wife is also a dental hygienist, and she has never once sent me any horrific shit…. So I don’t think that’s a trait necessarily tied to the occupation, lol

I want push my updates from volatile memory out to long term storage.

I always saw the O as output.
