Not as great as it seems. The thing is, everyone’s retirement is tied to real-estate. The numbers my vary country by country, but nearly all pension funds and mutual funds have significant exposure to real-estate that is just ignoring the issue that those properties may become uninsurable. That’s before what happens due to the economic disruption of all those cities slowly, then at an increased velocity, relocating.
It’s not going to be pretty.
So yes, I realize this a joke map (honestly, a giant, probably mostly freshwater sea, in the US would be a blessing). But what you’re describing is the main issue with climate change.
It’s not going to be “the day after tomorrow”. It will be coastal cities… which are… like nearly ALL of them… losing all their economic value. In the US when having this conversation I say “what do you do when any building in Manhattan is uninsurable? What do you do when it’s sure to have severe damage?”.
For most people there are plenty of places to go, but the “going” is going to be very, very ugly.
… Damnit. That is dope.
Can you markup pdfs with it? Like if I’m reading a paper can I put notes in the margin etc and save it?
“what do you mean it’s not a real show? Does my agent know? I still get paid with real money though right?”
The poems of Thomas Zane in the old gods of asgard concert in the book about max Payne in the video game Allen wake in the video game control in the amazing TV series the threshold kids in that song the janitor is singing.
… Pretty sure that’s the continuity.
Dude, they flubbed this so damn hard by over reaching. A few years ago, when they mentioned there would be a button in word that you could use to make a slide deck of your word dock, I was so excited. The teams meeting part where it will summarize meetings is honestly fantastic in doing Roberts rules of order type stuff. My response was “I hate what this means in terms of privacy, but godamn that sounds useful”.
In turning into an everything all or nothing they massively screwed up. I have a self hosted instance of llama-gpt that I use to solve the “blank page” problem that AI was actually great at.
I have a lot of issues with AI on principle, like a lot of folks. But it blows my mind how hard they screwed up delivery (and I don’t just mean the startups, that’s to be expected). There’s plenty to be said about uber at a principle level, but it’s still bloody convenient. The entire roll out of a AI-ecosystem reeks of this meme: “but we made plans!”.
Life arises from beautiful choas, where in the random but rhythmic dance of chance evolution gives rise to incomprehensible and beautiful complexity made possible by rafts of soul crushing failures buoying the statistical miracle of success.
I am sorry your genes are of bad stock and you’ve been deprived of enjoying the best of this world.
I mean you’re spot on, it’s really not the end of the world, and you’re correct on the parks and rec.
I think people get prickly because of what you mentioned about the substance of the article probably being way worse, everyone’s just primed these days lol. We’re kind of sorting some shit out over here…
Anyway thanks for the conversation, it’s always fun to see your own culture through someone else’s eyes.
I guess what it comes down to is there a plenty of things, big and small, that I don’t have an issue with as an American but I know matter to the other person. Usually it’s small stuff (how people comport themselves in relation to work, the line between direct and rude, etc) , but when it comes to things where people died, I think it’s best to defer to the people involved.
Maybe that’s a trap of my upbringing as well but I don’t see that as American lens, I see that as recognizing there are a lot of lenses.
And again, the original joke is decent, its a role reversal and punches up not down, but I wouldn’t want an American paper making jokes about Finnish biathalon Olympians spanking the Russians.
Any joke with cultural baggage carries the risk you miss context. Again, I don’t think that’s just true for Americans.
You do you, it’s just in poor taste. It’s not the end of the world or anything, it’s just funny to me that it’s the same thing “boorish Americans” get flack for.
What’s ironic is you’re displaying exactly what you’re critiquing. This joke is a bit funny, but it’s on par with something like “Prince Charles asks NRA to fix his car”. There’s just baggage. And lord knows Italy has plenty of its own.
Thank you for the tips! It turns out the files weren’t corrupted at all, it was a transcoding issue somewhere in the hardware acceleration stack. I’ve disabled it which will cause some bottlenecks, but there’s more than enough processing power in the rig for the limited amount of people that use it simultaneously.
Thank you for the reply and the links though! My original plan was NOT to fix the files, just to figure out which had an issue and re-download them. Like I said it turns out that was unnecessary.
Thanks all the same for pointing me to that thread. I do want to start screwing around with some imagine manipulation at some point, and this has already been really educational in learning the top level flow of this kind of thing. Again, I’m more used to passing data for sensors and motors.
Making a toplevel comment to say thank you! Especially to @[email protected] , @[email protected] and @[email protected] .
So something in the way plex works with my GPU (Ellesmere Radeon Pro WX 5100) for hardware acceleration was going askew.
Thanks for educating me on some new tools! My nieces also thank you. Bluey should be blue, not green.
I’m not seeing color space, but there’s a bit depth of 8 and some schroma info. Also I’m seeing a codec: MPEG4 and a CodecID: XVID
I certainly am not sure lol. I did try disabling the HDR tone mapping to no affect. It’s possible this is the issue as when I transferred the library, it was to new hardware with a different GPU.
Is there a way to tell the color format from the file info?
Thank you!
Edit: I wanted to add context, as I think this may be the culprit. I initially transferred the files from one machine to another via filezilla. About a week after, we had a power outage, which screwed up the SSD that had the operating system (lesson learned about surge protectors). To get the Plex back and running quickly, I simply pulled the physical hard-drive, and popped it into a 3rd machine. So it does make sense to me that the file itself may be fine.
Thanks for explaining, but I still want to make sure I understand the purpose of Tdarr. One thing I’ve noticed about tools like this is the documentation usually gets right into the “how” and skips over the “what and why”. So Tdarr transcodes a library with intention of a new, permanent output library? Is that correct? I’m used to transcoding in the context Plex does it: On the fly to serve to a client, and temporary.
If my understanding is correct then maybe it’ll help address issues, but still an awesome tool to help optimize my library.
Thanks for taking the time. Most of my coding background is mostly from monitoring and control, so I’m still learning a lot about the nuts and bolts of the whole stack that makes stuff like plex work.
this looks like it may be helpful, but I’m not super clear on what it does exactly. It looks like it does conditional transcoding, but I’m not clear on what that means. Would this screw with plexs own traditional transcoding? Or does it attempt to repair a file by transcoding.
Thank you for the input!
Sadly that’s not going to be BMW specific for much longer, they’re all taking a page out of that book. 2022 Hyundai, long story on how I managed to kill a single spark plug at 30k miles, but this time last year the part wasn’t listed anywhere. It was FORTY DOLLARS for a SINGLE plug from Hyundai. I’m sure there were alternates that would work but I wasn’t going to risk it over 40 bucks at that low mileage.
