For images with large blocks of solid colors and no gradients, frequently the opposite is true. Screenshots and avatars with solid(transparent) backgrounds are often smaller as png.

It drives me nuts seeing things like tweets (white and black text) being shared with crazy jpeg artifacting. They’d be so much smaller and so much less ugly as png

“Breaks all compatibility [with emby]” was my interpretation of that. Not a huge deal either way but I’d definitely have been calling it 11 with this DB rework myself

Basically, yes. Forces plugins not to use potentially database-engine-specific SQL so that server admins don’t have to select their DB based on plugins for jellyfin being compatible.

I kinda agree here. https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/contributing/release-procedure/

Claims to follow semantic versioning, explicitly mentioning changes to plugin APIs as reasoning for a new major version.

I have a benefit of the doubt thing here, not that any billionaire I’ve heard of deserves it. If I suddenly had a billion dollars, would I donate to an existing charity with an administration I don’t know and trust or would I think “hmm I can better choose what happens with this money” and start my own charitable enterprise? Like a bill/Miranda Gates situation.

I know if I had a billion dollars worth of shares of a company I wouldn’t necessarily liquidate it all for philanthropy either. Do I hold onto control of these stocks while attempting to guide the company in a more ethical way? Idk. It’s an interesting thought

Give us some examples? What goals are you being asked to give up on?

God I wish megacorps would stop being morons with NDA nonsense and just open up the possibilities for open source devs to actually use the hardware that’s out there

I’m legally blind I cannot see apparently. I could have sworn I even searched for it

I don’t see anything in the changelog about improving download speed? Plenty about the UI but… What am I missing?

God damn why’s the world so shit

Unlike other data sources, this information includes gang shootings, domestic violence, shootings at sports games and afterhours school events, suicides, fights that escalate into shootings, and accidents.

Using this wide definition is clearly muddying the waters of what is colloquially known as a school shooting. Those words make people think of uvalde and Columbine, indiscriminately shooting many of the kids. Suicides, accidents, etc are MUCH different and implying they’re the same is actively harming genuine discourse on the topic.

Interesting to see such old games getting any attention in terms of licensing

“RTFM” My irritation is that most recipes make a huge amount of assumptions - at least as many as code that assumes a certain version of library. You can get recipes that say things as vague as “prepare the chicken” and aren’t at all clear what they mean, unless you’ve seen someone do it first, but it’s published in a book like you should just know. I hate that. I also frequently see quantities like “1 can” which just drives me insane as though that’s a standard unit.

There’s also plenty of cooking specific jargon, so densely packed that beginners might spend the majority of the recipe looking up what the terms mean. “Chop” parsley - how finely? “Mix the ingredients” how long? What the fuck is Golden Brown actually?

I was going to ask about resolution as I haven’t tested it myself. Considering my screen is 32:9 (7160x3840) I’d be pretty disappointed with a 1920x540 recording

Thanks, don’t mind if I do

This has been the case since SATA revision 3.3, released Feb 2016. So while I may have exaggerated with “ancient”, a brand new PSU certainly shouldn’t still be feeding 3.3v to that pin.

Likely changing the “active” flag or boot stuff, but as the other commenter says, if you aren’t 100% confident, disconnect the scsi

I have done this with dozens of drives and have never had to do any pin blocking. You only need to do that if you’re using an absolutely ancient sata power cable that doesn’t know about the spinup pin change

VP9 has pretty wide support, probably due to the Google (and YouTube) backing. I sincerely doubt devices will phase out any codecs, especially not VP9.

AMD video cards have supported hardware decoding of VP9 since vcn1.0 - well before they had support for decoding AV1

AV1 and VP9 are likely going to be your highest efficiency “free” codecs. AV1 is the way to go if you mean free as in free open source. It’s not very likely to be implemented in many TVs or set-top-boxes, but VLC/ffmpeg will be able to decode any of these. Webm uses vp8 or VP9 which are “free”(made by Google) but it’s just more specific settings for sharing online/viewing in browser.

H264/H265 has license fees for non-free software and hardware, but they will be your most widely supported option. H265 is approximately twice as efficient as h264 (meaning you can get the same quality of encode from half the file size).

Regardless of preset I think you can get handbrake to encode something reasonable from any of these codecs. Especially with DVD video you’ll be able to crank through videos with modern high efficiency codecs
