I believe a lot of uranium comes from Australia?

Definitely risks in the supply chain there, but probably less than Russia?

I did grow up with a number of mobile games from my childhood, but it seems like the ones people earnestly enjoy are maybe Pokemon Go and then a number of centuries old card games.

What is the purpose of lossless H.264 vs. ProRes or the like?

Is it similar to lossless audio were there's not a ton of optimization you can do?

My lukewarm take is that it's conspicuous consumption.

Music is cheaper than it's ever been for the consumer and segregation between genres or bands is non-existent on music streaming.

It's hard to socially signal when everyone can afford to stream and the search bar can show you Sabrina Carpenter just as easily as RYM or /mu/core.

However , you can socially signal if you spend money on an iPod, DAP, better headphones, physical media etc.

I'll fully admit I do.

The point of Plex is sharing your library with less ... technical users.

If I didn't want to do that, I'd not even use Jellyfin- SMB share and mpv would be fine with me.

You're not kidding, I feel like this is better than most of those awesome-X lists that were popular for a while.

There is a weird chain of wondering what is going to answer my response with Siri AI considering it could be Old Siri, New Siri (local), New Siri (PCC), or ChatGPT...

$429 CAD is crazy for sure but there's a running joke in my group chats of me sending a link to an Apple TV every time someone posts about their Kodi box breaking. It's not set and forget like an Apple TV at all...

CGO=0 came in clutch at previous job when we were deploying Go apps compiled on builders that had a newer glibc than the actual prod server.
