  • And crosses are just lines meeting at right angles. And purity rings are just small cylinders. We don't ban any cylinder or lines meeting at right angles. You're making a sad attempt at a slippery slope argument.

  • USB C didn't exist, but it was being developed, and apple was on the USB-IF forum which developed it. So literally part of apple was developing USB-C while another part decided "nah, we will make our own" and of course it takes less time to make your own than to make something everyone agrees on.

  • With the bridges to other networks, you can pretty much talk to everyone from inside Matrix regardless of what they use.

    Then again, the DMA should kick in next year, at that point big players like iMessage, Whatsapp and whoever else counts as big (so probably not Google Chat) will have to allow interoperability between everyone. So they are going to be forced to allow you to somehow massage someone from Whatsapp through Matrix and group chat with people in Instagram and Signal all at once. Matrix has been suggested as the backbone for this interpretability.

  • Sorry, you need hardware.

    If you are doing a ton of encoding, you could even get specialized hardware like amd alevo (spelling?) card which enables you to encode even AV1.

    That being said, what are you doing that requires you to encode h.265 on ancient hardware?

  • and sells batteries to the other auto makers.

    My limited understanding of the matter is that their batteries are overpriced and nothing special compared to alternatives.

    The real game changer that seems to be coming down the pipeline is the solid state battery Toyota has been teasing. If they manage to bring that to market while holding important patents on the technology it's basically game over for other kinds of battery for EVs.

  • Hex screws are pretty standard. I'm not a lawyer, but I'd imagine they would be acceptable.

    That being said, I never understood the reason to have 5 different types of screws around. Can we just have one type for everything?

  • Mainly C++ with a sprinkling of Python and Rust for fun.

    Used to code KDevelop, now VSCode. Build in a regular terminal (I prefer Meson over Cmake, both end up producing Ninja files.) Debug with valgrind, gdb and ddd. Push to Gitlab for my personal projects.

    I use Docker for my test environments as it's easy to bring them up and restore them to mint condition, and it ensures that the longer running tests with side effects don't interfere with one another.

  • It’s more durable, easier to clean, and the cable breaks instead of the port.

    Citation on the durability claim?

    I've been using USB-C since it was released, and none of them ever broke on me.

  • Yes, USB-C only describes the physical connector, but unless Apple somehow insists on giving users a more shitty experience when using USB-C they are kind of forced to support a reasonable standard for data transfer and charging. We probably won't get 240W charging or anything close, but we also won't see a degradation compared to lightning.

  • TILVids has orders of magnitude less usage than YouTube, both in terms of storage and bandwidth.

    Generally speaking you can expect to hit one bottleneck or another whenever you grow one order of magnitude, and fixing these becomes harder each time.
