Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called the fatal shooting "horrifying news and a terrible loss for the business and health care community" in the state that headquarters the company.

Actual quote. A terrible loss "for the healthcare community", not a loss for his kids though interestingly enough.

Thoughts and prayers

I didn't say they didn't overthrow Communist governments.

You may have heard of this thing called Iran? They aren't picky about who they hurt.

Can't disagree more.

Windows out of the box experience is a hundred click next buttons and then drop you off with half your drivers missing.

Yep. Fucking hypocrite tells people to use something he is hostile towards.

Fuck Epic, they are destroying PC gaming which means they are not developer friendly.

They are actively trying to shrink the market that developers can target.

The fact that you can't use the Epic games launcher on Linux should be telling you what you need to know.

How is their 12 foot interface these days?

How is their position on running things via wine? Tim the bellend has generally been telling Linux users to use wine, but at the same time been generally hostile to it.

The CIA openly destabilises monarchies, republics and democracies as well.

There is little evidence that the CIA specifically targets communist countries, more that they target anything thats not America.

I wrote Mesa but meant ffmpeg. Wishful thinking that they are able to make a generic ffmpeg encoder in Vulkan to allow it to be accelerated in hardware but not relying on bad video driver codecs.

Oh well, back to Intel.

If the driver is no longer using a dedicated piece of encoding hardware thats shit, but using the Vulkan logic then surely the quality would be essentially guaranteed by it being Vulkan conformant?

The hardware wouldn't support b-frames in this scenario, and wouldn't matter because your just using the standard matrixes to encode the stream and if it didn't work then surely games would also be broken.

Or am I incorrect. Is this just standardising the API in Vulkan and it gets forwarded to the same video encoding driver? Could we not have Mesa doing a better job? 😒

The video quality for encoding has always been bad with AMD.

I'm hoping that by using Vulkan we can bypass poor quality encoders in drivers and get standardised accelerated encoders.

Still waiting for the ISO version!

Why would you want to prevent strangers, future humanity or governments from using open source?

Similar to New York cheesecake

The popular version of New York located in Cheesecake, Kentucky.

Spotify is the labels and the middlemen.

What are you on about? Crumpets aren't muffins.

Not in the slightest.

The monarchy only has a 50% approval rating here, and that is only because Lizzy played the game of appearing nice and having a lot of PR.

Her kids and grandkids are fucking needy arseholes that should be fired out of a cannon. Can we send them to Ukraine instead of missiles?

Damnit.

I wonder if thats because the transcoding hardware ismcrap or they just aren't concentrating on that in the software.

Transcodes worked vastly better with QuickSync last time I bought a machine.

Does the AMD transcoded work as well these days?

I just disagreed with the statement

They are always the same

It may impact you, but the same would happen climbing and having different boiling points. It may be extreme, but we are talking about convincing folks who use a spoon as a standard.

Yes they do.
