HDMI 2.1

  • First off: cables don't have version numbers.

    Yes, and this is unironically a problem. I am frankly happy to see this push just so I don't have to find out that the video issue I've been troubleshooting for the last 2 hours was due to a cable that's marked the same as any other cable happens to have half the bandwidth as some other arbitrary one.

    Fuck HDMI. All my homies hate HDMI.

  • Apple is a victim of always having to build the new thing, so there's never time or resources to fix the old things. They can sometimes do an end run around this by re-releasing the same thing over again and pretending it's new, but then the cycle just begins anew

  • I had a rental Mazda and I have to say, that rotary control is the worst combination of tactile and touch interface I have seen to date. Maybe that gets better after using it for 6 months, but I can more or less memorize touch interface control positions in that same timeframe and without the distraction of figuring out which element the rotary dial highlight moved to this time.

    I would rather have had full touch than that monstrosity.

  • I've been a youtube premium subscriber since like 2017, long before the enshitification went terminal. I have a family plan so my kids can watch videos on the TV or on the tablet for the older kid without being bombarded by ads. I get not wanting to encourage youtube's shitty behavior these days, but I've always gotten plenty of value out of my youtube subscription, more than I ever did out of hulu or even netflix or paramount most months.

  • Flyve's site says that it's ceased development, which I found to be slightly amusing since this is the first I've heard of it. I have a lot of experience in the MDM space, and to be perfectly frank, for Android your best option is staying first party and sticking with Family Link. The MDM APIs in android land are a hot mess, and have been since their inception, and 3rd party solutions have only ever been adequate at best.
