About 8MB is you assuming average message size is 200 UTF 16 characters.

Seriously.

They are already doing this through regulatory capture and corruption. Let’s not give them more power

It’s a play to make at home compute unachievable, forcing people to pay for subscription cloud services and cloud compute in walled gardens.

Yeah, but it’s still operated and organized by people, people who of they are within US jurisdiction be punished and made “an example of”. Effectively killing the archive by cutting off its organization.

You know what’s good at removing lead from the body? Fiber.

Firefox just can’t win with their users.

• Mozilla makes decisions based on market data
  • Users complain they never wanted those features
• Mozilla makes a decision based on user feedback
  • Users shit on them for backpedaling or damage control

It’s absurd.

Yeah, it’s a wild move admitting that they are the source of pirated content for music here.

We don’t need Anna’s Archive to go under as a result of Sony going after them because of this…

Just because they suck at it now doesn’t mean they always have

Edit: I forgot this was self-hosted community, disregard.

How does organization work out?

We have dozens of workflows for our monorepo CI/CD stuff. GitHub organization with the flat structure is incredibly annoying.

GitLab is a single file?? (Or am I misinformed? )How does that work out?

A lot of that pain can be reduced by writing and running your code locally before pushing it to a CI environment. Generally with our automation we write a CLI, And GitHub actions is just an execution environment that calls the CLI.

And if what you’re trying to do must execute inside an action. You can run workflows locally with docker!

GitHub Actions mostly.

The rest is usually plumbing and code to support it. The actions are just the automated execution environment.

Unfortunate Newsflash:

It’s smaller reddit.

The lowest common denominator consumes all. And that denominator includes not being able to read articles or apply critical thought.

I’m currently running Vivaldi and it’s been fine. YouTube is even smoother.

So you switched to a Google controlled ecosystem. To no one’s surprise their own products, which intentionally run worse on competitive browsers, will work more smoothly once you use their backing software…

Google has a long history of abusing their position of power to “punish” users of other browsers and ecosystems by violating web standards, don’t use Google’s browsers or their derivatives.

Probably a fork of Firefox that can only survive as a side effect of the Mozilla engineering team’s constant efforts.

Or a Chromium based browser.

We’re not pretending, this is an asinine view.

Two things can be true at once. It’s surprising how difficult a concept this is to grasp.

Social media accelerated this, it provides the vehicle in which to make culture wars the only thing at the front of people’s minds. It accelerated division and hate, as these improve platform attention.

Let’s not even talk about the death of critical thinking which just allows this to happen to greater effect.

Rising wealth inequality because a side effect of us not fighting a class war which is a side effect of us being completely focused on culture wars which is a side effect of social media.

There’s an entire chain here and social media underpins most of it’s acceleration

Define “inciting”

This is where things get tricky. Leave that ambiguous and technically anything can be “inciting” if it’s in words.

Whether that’s racism, or anti-authoritarianism, or just speaking I’ll about your government.

Freedom of speech, as a concept, doesn’t work if it applies only to some speech. Controls around it will be abused and used against you at some point (Look at where the U.S. is heading).

This makes me nervous about more authoritarianism, as it sets a dangerous precedent that can be abused.

I want to reduce wasteful power consumption.

But I also desire ECC for stability and data corruption avoidance, and hardware redundancy for failures (Which have actually happened!!)

Begrudgingly I’m using dell rack mount servers. For the most part they work really well, stupid easy to service, unified remote management, lotssss of room for memory, thick PCIe lane counts, stupid cheap 2nd hand RAM, and stable.

But they waste ~100 watts of power per device though… That stuff ads up, even if we have incredibly cheap power.

That is parallelized… I didn’t make mention of threading being the concern here.

The 100+ billion operations per second isn’t exactly easy.

4k 60fps = 498 million pixels per second

Each pixel takes a couple hundred logical operations with HEVC.

A modern high end 4GHz, 8 physical core CPU at 4 instructions per cycle, at maximum capacity, can handle 128 billion operations per second.

You probably wouldn’t even get your realtime framerate in this scenario.

Yeah, because of the ASICs built into them to enable that decoding.

Without that, a 4K HEVC video is in upwards of 100+ billion operations/s to decode on the CPU. Which limits you to high end CPUs getting capped out on something you essentially get for “free” otherwise
