Just choose Australian. Tbh we don't care how you say it just be loud.

Go watch "the cost of concordia" by the same guy :)

If you haven't already that is.

Five words into the article says

Apple’s internal presentation from 2013

Literally at the top under TL;DR

It's paraphrasing Torvalds himself though. It's a cheeky title.

"... and I have absolutely no excuses to delay the v6.6 release any more, so here it is,"

It's impossible to tell, because they fired all the people who were counting.

When the horses have all bolted, BBC is the one to close the barn door.

Just fyi, as a sysadmin, I never want logs tampered with. I import them filter them and the important parts will be analysed no matter how much filller debugging and info level stuff is there.

Same with network captures. Modified pcaps are worse than garbage.

Just include everything.

Sorry you had a bad experience. The customer service side is kind of unrelated to the technical practice side though.

Start realising that the way you're used to scrolling with your mouse wheel, is a cog between you and the service it's moving. Actually you were using natural all along. It was the early touch pads that were wrong and nonsense.

So I think you may not know about quick sync, an Intel transcoding acceleration feature of Intel gpus in Intel CPUs.

https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/latest/technical/video-qsv.html

There's information about it for I think plex and handbrake and ffmpeg in general. This is how some people do real time transcoding for media servers. But I'm not an expert. I just hope you can be guided with easier search terms.

Many large discoveries by research in Australia in universities and CSIRO didn't get funding they needed in Australia, and the engineers and researchers simply found funding and moved to the United States. Then the US benefited from all that education and university research investment simply because the economy and startup funding was better.

I guess you know America is on a downturn if they see the same thing happening to them.

Don't feel bad because you're really good at using a tool that doesn't follow your values. I use Windows during the work week and I use Linux for gaming on the weekend where I literally can't work even if I wanted to.

For me Windows is a tool box with propriatry tools that have no Linux compatibility. That's OK for me. People get emotionally invested but that's neither healthy nor helpful. No point being angry at work, it's like being angry that your work uniform is made by one textiles vendor not the other.

You get to choose what you use at home in your own time. If you feel good using Linux then, do it!
