Tdarr AMD GPU transcoding...how?
  • I have AMD hardware acceleration working for Plex in an LXC container with an AMD APU so I'd assume it's possible.

    Tdarr seems to use ffmpeg under the covers, so I'd focus on getting that working with amd. If I remember I had to install the mesa drivers and pass in the /dev/dri folder. Then you can check ffmpeg for the amf encoders (AMD media framework).

  • 'A lot of money': Trump owes $87K in interest per day until he pays the fine in his civil fraud case
  • The crime was against the state of New York who has an interest in people believing New York has a free and fair financial market and that fraud is not tolerated.

    The bank WAS also harmed. They were taking a bigger risk than they were being paid for. They would have asked for MORE interest if he'd been honest.

  • Exclusive: Reddit in AI content licensing deal with Google
  • Not the guy you asked but I had chat gpt write up a few paragraphs about how Reddit used to care about it's users and why it sucks now. Then used power delete suite to overwrite every post and comment with it.

  • Behold the mighty Spheramid!
  • They're also leaving almost half the volume in bits on the ground.

    Volume of a sphere of diameter 1 = ~0.52 Volume of a cube of 1 unit = 1 Volume of a cylinder = ~0.79

    So not only are they not doing the required job. They're wasting twice as much time and material than needed to make the job easier...

    And you could still build a pyramid with cylinders...

  • Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid?
  • A median is an average and is exactly that.

    Intelligence also tends to be a bell curve distribution which means the mean is likely that way too. Also means the mode, the final type of average, is also likely in the middle.

  • How do I get started with game development? (Godot specifically)
  • I actually learned GDScript this summer. When the Unity debacle happened, Zenva.com was running a Godot humble bundle. While the bundle doesn't exist, you can find similar courses on Youtube. The courses were just creating simple games, like 'Create a 2D Platformer with Godot 4' or 'Real-Time Strategy Game with Godot 4'. I did about half a dozen of those. That gave me the tools to understand the basic usage of GDScript as well as the Godot engine. Anything more advanced was googling my question. There's A LOT of GDScript developers, and with it being open source the community tends to be very helpful, ime.

  • What's the best jarred pasta sauce? I don't like the cheap Aldi store brand.
  • I got two big jars for 9.98 at Sam's today. They're each almost twice the size of what Walmart carries, which is almost $5 a jar. 44 oz for $10 vs 13 oz for $5

    It makes an excellent pizza sauce for home made pizzas too.

  • Should I putchase a 4-year-old nVidia TV Pro, another technology, or wait for next Gen?
  • The only reason I think they might soon if at all is because the Nintendo Switch and the shield have similar SoCs. Tegra X1 with a Maxwell GPU. Well Switch 2 is close enough to release that people are seeing it and the SoC is showing up in benchmarks. Another ARM chip, but with an Ampere GPU this time.

    So if NVidia is already building the SoC for Nintendo, it may be reasonably easy to make an upgrade to the Shield.

  • Top 20 CEO pay in the S&P 500 is disgusting
  • Why should the shareholders interest even be prioritized. What about customers? Or employees? Or the business itself?

    This priority on short term profits for stock price is toxic to functional capitalism.

  • Apple forced to ditch iPhone lightning charger
  • Are you sure it's firmware or software limited?

    I assumed they just kept the lightning controller, which as you said had USB 2.0 speeds, and then hardwired a USB-C adapter into the phone/circuit board. So it's a hardware limit.

  • Server Information

    This is a small instance, running on consumer hardware on a consumer internet connection in Eastern Iowa. It was created for the purpose of automatically aggregating content I was personally interested in from other instances. It's performed well enough for me, so I'm willing to open it up for registration.

    Feel free to invite friends, but as a warning, if moderation becomes too much of a headache, or the server begins buckling under the weight, I'll likely be forced to shutter the whole thing.

    Feel free to ask any questions or offer suggestions in this thread. Otherwise, enjoy!
