  • As always, this is incredible engineering. I'm so excited that M series macs have a supportability path beyond Apple's proprietary support

    1. You can look at manufacturers info pages and see what they support. Intel integrated chips usually list the capabilities and you'll want to double check with your mini PC or motherboard manufacturer to make sure they support it too. I think any i5+ from the past 5 years with integrated graphics should be able to play/decode 4k media (someone correct me if this sounds crazy). Fornsure my core ultra 265. As far as codec support, I'm not familiar with the compatibilities but I'm sure everything CAN be played on recentish hardware. Encoding is out of my weelhouse.

    2. I've used HDMI 2.1 hdr 4k120 on Linux with Nvidia, AMD and Integrated Intel. AMD will be the best experience especially on cards from the past 5 years. Nvidia, with proprietary drivers, on 3000 series or newer should be good for a few more years. I heard 2000 series will be dropped from support soonish m. Intel HDMI 2.1 is a pain on linux and I've only been able to get HDR 4k120 using a special DP to HDMI cable.

  • Notepad++ hijacked by state-sponsored hackers

  • Notepad++ works fine on Wine on Mac and Linux. After being away from it from awhile, I realized I don't need it anymore. I would often use the column edit mode and recorded macros, but I just bash script those now. I guess I'm a different person now?!?

  • First of all, this is an incredible shot! Second, I think your edit is solid. I am posting my edit of your pic to show you my interpretation of what I would post. I'm not implying that I somehow corrected your work, rather went with my gut for what looks good to me.

    The biggest change is the crop and I chose it because I wanted to highlight the fine textures captured and make sure they're viewable even on small phone screens.

    I pumped contrast and saturation to my liking. I pushed blacks up and whites down to make sure I wasn't clipping. In doing so, I stared seeing a lot of color noise so corrected that. There was also chromatic abberation/fringing on the wings, which I removed.

    I also added sharpening. And a slight vignette to focus eyes to the center.

    Lightroom settings (easily reproducible in Darktable):

     
        
Exposure  -.20 f
Highlights -34
Shadows -18
Whites -4
Blacks +41
Temp -4/100 (towards cool)
Tint -3/100 (towards green)
Vibrance +27
Saturation +37

Tonal Contrast 
Texture +10 (fine)
Clarity +15 (mid)
Dehaze   +30 (coarse)

Sharpening +33 
Color Noise Reduction +32

Vignette -29
Removed Chromatic Aberration

    The joke is that Rogue One, a newer Star Wars move, is a nostalgia shotgun blast with no substance.

    The same channel went to great lengths to shred the Star Wars prequels (Eps I, III and III) under the name of Plinkett Reviews.

  • This is shocking to people who live in the suburbs. People in big cities are used to being around people and understand that they are "neighbors" to all people around them. Suburbanites are terrified of strangers and cities because they can't fathom not driving a 4-ton SUV to a parking lot as a precursor to anything in life.

  • Great spin, Bloomberg. You were very careful to only talk about "potential" and missing revenue targets when the real problem is that a bunch of grifters pretended they were on the absolute verge of AGI when, in fact, they were/are bulding advanced bullshit machines.
