HP can go fuck themselves

Imagine hosting an event so lame that it makes international news solely because of how incredibly lame it was. Just damn.

You can pirate media that uses that new blu ray drm by plugging a capture card into the overpriced compatible DVD player and recording the video. Also, it’s a way to transfer saved content from a dvr as their hard drives are always encrypted (do those still exist). The video stream on all this stuff is encrypted with hdcp to prevent this but there exist hdcp strippers. It seems to still be possible to buy them even on Amazon. Stock up before they get banned. Frankly I’m surprised they aren’t banned already.

I hope they actually end up calling it the Very Big Disc ™

The only disadvantage of display port that I can think of is that it’s harder to find capture devices (or at least Linux compatible ones) that have display port. Generally no one cares about that stuff though. I use capture cards because I sometimes do stuff involving other computers and it’s 1000 times more convenient to have a vlc window floating around with the display output.

No one seems to have this use case besides me, I’m just glad that there exist capture cards fast enough to do playback in real-time and not a 5 second delay. I don’t stream.

If I were offered $75k to have 1 kid, I’d still have to turn it down.

They definitely won’t be selling any of that to scammers /s

When it fucks up, good luck fixing it without an os reinstall. That’s the price. If it was easier/possible to restore to a fully working state after it gets borked, it would be really good.

Because zoneminder sucks and the other ones are kind of corporate and crappy?

They must not be very good hackers if they have to use a third party service instead of making their own local ai and using it for their shenanigans 🤷

They already replaced the default start menu with a bullshittier one.

I can see the headlines now. “GOP passes bill banning civilian ownership of anything faster than a Pentium III.”

Society: you’re expected to get a second job because if we made things cheap enough to survive off 1 job, that would be communism

Also society: no, not like that. That’s cheating.

How the fuck can they not compete with 5G? Is using the advantages of their wired infrastructure to just provide customers with the same service as always but without the bandwidth caps, effectively overcoming the 1 major disadvantage of mobile internet, really that hard?

Wow wtf my comment didn’t go to the post I intended. Huh.
