Yikes. I feel for you man.

Can’t use DNS?

Red Dwarf and Brittas Empire

Also North of 60

I don’t encode in AV1, I use HEVC. But while your argument is not unreasonable, it misses the component of file size and amount of disk space required.

HEVC (x265) takes half the space of x264. While it does require a more modern GPU, it can be run on lower powered Intel CPUs with an integrated GPU just fine, so long as the CPU is new enough. Though it can only handle 2-3 streams on a CPU like the Intel chips in a ZimaBoard. So you need to choose wisely.

All dependent on the hardware you run the server on. Give it a good GPU and you’re off to the races

What kind of twatwaffle writes this crap. Fuck your planned obsolescence.

Having already gone to e/OS and degoogled, avoiding apps on the play store - I’ve just been using the webapps via Fennec for banking, and its been fine. No notifications… But these days most of my important bank notifications can be emails.

This. It burns too much electricity, wastes too much water and is wrong 70% of the time. Even if its private and offline the problems with it go waaaaay beyond that.

Working hardware drivers. Stable phone and SMs applications.

Have yet to see either on any Linux Distro for Fairphone

And then you added 1, right?

…right?

It can only hit the side of the planet facing the sun at the time, unless (and heavens forbid) it was some sort of massive coronal burst that was wide an deep enough to bombard the earth for a complete 24 hours.

Usually the initial bombardment that would be powerful enough to take radio signals down isn’t very long, and thus can only hit one side.

You can only talk in written terms about hemispheres with a common point of reference. That reference is the axis, with both hemispheres centred on the axis and forming the equator in the middle. Once you have told the reader it affected both hemispheres you need to establish the east-west sections. Which they do by mentioning the Americas and Pacific.

At one time it was common to see the use of longitudinal and latitudinal spans, but most people are not as familiar with the lines since globes are not as common and digital maps don’t usually display them.

The two hemispheres are the northern and southern hemispheres when discussing earth, and both were affected.

Red Dwarf did this in an Episode as well where the new AI decides he’s not crew and no longer has a subscription to air.

Inflation has made the hospitality industry mad run from 2000-2020 die and it will go back to what it was in the 80s and 90s when people had less money like they do now. It was a good run but unless you have a middle class with money to spend, no one can afford to support so many restaurants.

This is what CB Radios are, and many more people used to have them before cell phones.

People in mountainous areas where a cell phone is useless still do.

Religion will become popular again and people still start falling for nonsense like ghosts and superstitions. People born after the 80s don’t really remember just how batshit crazy people went for misinformation before we had the internet.

We need a new internet without corporate bullshit and some integrity in terms of knowledge. But seeing what happened to the current one, I don’t think that will be possible until we kill capitalism.

These days firing employees when turning a profit is what makes the stock go up.

Use DKMS drivers. They rebuild for the latest kernel as its upgraded. Using precompiled libs is a problem as many vendors dont keep up with the kernel.

Also, consider an OS that isn’t just a Ubuntu variant. Broken kernel upgrades are a thing of the past since our house dumped Ubuntu based distros.

Luanti (Minetest) folks.

The modding momentum is picking up quite a bit and as a game engine its far better than Minecraft.
