- Comment on After 18 years, Blu-ray media production draws to a close — Sony shuts its last factory in Feb 2 weeks ago:
Netflix 4K has a bitrate topping out around 16 Mbps (and often lower), Blu-ray 4K is something like 140 Mbps. Streaming services compress the hell out of video to save bandwidth.

“Best we can do is an overpackaged, encrypted, read-only 32gb microSD for $49.99. It requires a dedicated proprietary media player and if you’re lucky, it won’t fail in a year.”
“Why won’t anyone buy our movies :(”
- Comment on After 18 years, Blu-ray media production draws to a close — Sony shuts its last factory in Feb 2 weeks ago:
Yes and yes, but looking at BR releases, they seem to drop off hard around the month of May.
This lines up pretty close to 3 months after close, I think that could be a lead time if production ends next month. They are probably printing April releases right now.

Article says it started as removing BD-R but they’d keep operating for corporate customers (studios) but that appears to have collapsed quickly. I’m interpreting it as the end of Blu-ray production entirely.

- Comment on Max is testing always-on HBO channels 2 months ago:
I use Prime’s live channels when I’m not invested in finding something to watch, but want some background noise. Before YouTube ads got crazy, I’d just let it autoplay for same effect. I’ll appreciate having HBO’s content in similar rotation, assuming it’s included at current cost.
- Comment on Discord finally fixed Linux screen and audio sharing with Wayland 2 months ago:
Have you tried the update? There are comments in the article that claim discord fixed both Wayland and X11. Haven’t confirmed myself, but hopefully those comments are right!
I’ll probably stick with vesktop too though, I’ve become too attached to custom themes

- Comment on Linux update adds support for 128 terabyte SD cards— SDUC and UHS-II SD cards are now supported 2 months ago:
It’s crazy, in 2035 that should fit at least 6 games

SD Express is advertised as PCIe gen 3 speeds (~1GBps) but will be a while before we see a microsd like that lol

Spending all that money to end up gaming on a membrane keyboard and OEM tier mouse.

- Comment on Humble Book Bundle - Scripting & Shells 2 months ago:
You’re not wrong, but these are at least high quality O’Reilly guides. I wouldn’t share if it was just another mid Packt bundle.

- Comment on Third-party tool "Rebound 11" aims to improve the Windows 11 UI, while keeping system files intact 3 months ago:
The tool is foss, the purpose for its existence is not. What I really mean is volunteer devs spending time subsidizing a three trillion dollar business with free labor isn’t ideal. There’s many other projects where time would be better spent, ones that benefit everyone now and in the future.
This isn’t strictly directed to devs of this tool, every week there’s a new "fix11, “new11”, “11 decrapifier” tool released and everyone nods along like this is okay.

The world if millions of open source developers contributed to foss projects instead of “fixing windows”
- Comment on Ubisoft Director Claims "Non-Decent Humans" Are Wishing For Company's Demise 3 months ago:
I wouldn’t say I’m wishing for Ubisoft to collapse, more that I’ve decided to not give them any money for reskinning the same design repeatedly, and think more people should do the same…
- Comment on Acer enter the handheld PC gaming race with the Nitro Blaze 7 5 months ago:
Yah controller support is best it’s ever been – but many PC games still benefit with mouse-like dexterity. And for many games, the ability to add additional buttons and macros.
