Inflation. Pixels cost less back then.

Russia says a lot of things, and this seems like a dumb weapon. ICBMs can hit basically anywhere on earth way faster than 15 hours. Sabre-rattling indeed.

The h265 hardware support is a lot less exciting than you might think. Most hardware that has support to encode it doesn't even use the hardware encoders anyway because a software encoder produces a significantly better result. I would make sure you have CPU power to handle your transcoding, and I haven't has any issues transcoding that resolution on my quite old Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4590T CPU @ 2.00GHz.

A Raspi is probably not going to be enough for reliable video transcoding at high resolutions, but I haven't tried it myself. You certainly have more upgrade path options with a mini-PC while still keeping a low power target.

I agree that distro is not very important if you're running your services in Docker containers anyway. It's mostly whatever you find comfortable. My personal recommendation is don't get too creative unless you enjoy setting up servers. I tend to be conservative in my server OSs.

This doesn't usually end well for the simp nerd.

It might be a bubble, but bubbles can last a long time. Here are some famous quotes to illustrate the problem:

“Markets can remain irrational a lot longer than you and I can remain solvent." -- A. Gary Shilling, twice named Wall Street’s top economist.

"Far more money has been lost by investors preparing for corrections, or trying to anticipate corrections, than has been lost in corrections themselves." -- Peter Lynch, American investor, mutual fund manager, author and philanthropist.

We know evaluations are high. We know that AI has not delivered on its promises at least not yet. Investor confidence remains high, but for how long? Nobody knows.

Personally, I think any correction will swiftly bounce because the government will print money to make sure there's a speedy recovery. We have seen a push to boosting the economy through intensive money printing instead of allowing valuations to crash properly. The Fed loves to kick the can down the road more than anything.

In the US, the left mirror doesn't usually have this effect.

Don't make me feel old like that.

I believe they're legally forbidden from striking and have to be careful it isn't seen as such.

Ruling class: Come on, they're peasants! It's not like they make money anyways.

They are definitely fucking the kids. It's the GOP.

We have plenty of money to feed everyone. Those just aren't the right kind of American these days.
