>Starlink operator SpaceX claims that Amazon violated orbital debris requirements by launching satellites into initial altitudes that are too high, increasing the risk of collision with other satellites and spacecraft. SpaceX, which recently reported two Starlink satellite failures that created new space debris, yesterday accused Amazon and its launch partner Arianespace of negligence that “needlessly and significantly increases risk to other operational systems and inhabited spacecraft.”https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/04/spacex-claims-amazon-leo-launches-could-crash-into-starlink-satellites/
>>108566395>spacex, the same people that filed a request for perpetual carte blanche to launch infinite satellites, is trying to police othersdo they unironically think they own space?

Will humanity ever get rid of the 8-bit H.264 cockroach video codec? Also why didn't 10-bit H.264 (still inferior to 10-bit AV1) become a thing?
>>108566367What are "iso-bitrates"? 100 Mbps?
>>108550766Same hereI don't like the idea of moving on because my laptop won't play video of all things
>>108550766based.>>108566367this, even top quality releases are still in h264, because there's no alternative for high quality content. I don't care about saving 5-10% disk space, storage is cheap, it's not the 90's anymore gramp.
>>108549723Actually, latest Nvidia cards also support it. Better late than never, I guess.
>>108550782iirc OP is a faggot and 8-bit isn't the core problem but the TV range (16-235 and 16-240 for colors, instead of full range 0-255) plus BT.601/BT.709 matrix transforms cause the loss of information.Inherently separating out the "white" in RGB->YCbCr is good because it lets you do chroma subsampling (in 4:2:0, the most popular form it's basically halving the color resolution while keeping full-res for contrast) easily and that drastically improves compression efficiency (this works because we're fucking apes and notice contrast more than color). But doing so with limited range (maybe with full range too idk) using bt.601 and bt.709 matrix transforms (the SDR standard) causes loss of information (iirc you effectively get something about ~7.7 bits for whites, ~7.8 bits for color).10-bit happens to be good enough to fix it while also having other benefits (other anons here explain it better)There's also the thing where encoders behave differently and have better precision in 10-bit modes than 8-bit modes. This also leads to greater encoding efficiency (i.e. better quality for the size)You could also fix this using YCoCg-R instead of YCbCr transforms but everything is too gay and retarded to do that (muh compatibility, just look at anons crying their 69 year old stinkpads can't play AV1, the very fact that most video is still H.264 is a fucking crime).Everything comes down to compatibility with 20+ year old standards that TVs and millions of devices stick to for "compatibility" and unwillingness of video tech to move on. 10-bit in H.264 is a special profile that many devices and even video players don't support, because hardware acceleration and effort.This is coincidentally why AV1 is great, it forces 10-bit 4:2:0 support as a necessity in its most basic profile

Can someone explain to me non-ironically the use case of professional cardioid dynamic microphones during youtube interviews or debates that are seemingly conducted over a video call, which I would expect reduces sound quality
Oh yeah, most importantly: a heapton of today's "superior" physical equivalents of these "inferior" VST plugins are literally just physical wrappers for those VST plugins. The audio processing done is still the exact same. Analog is only utilized for unique synthesizers and no one in their right mind would sit purely in the analog world when most of the shit can be done just as well with VST plugins and other digital processing.https://youtu.be/NYV2-nv5mokTruth is, if you are a shit musician, no amount of money spent on analog hardware will improve your work. You're either able to pull out creative tracks or you don't.It's the same cope as investing thousands in meme keyboards in hopes of improving your typing speed, or investing thousands in gear to improve your gayming skills. Tools are only a physical cap of your skill ceiling, not it's definition.
>>108566905>>108566950Nobody is reading this
>>108566967>I refuse to read opposing opinionsSo you don't know shit about fuck, as expected. Thanks for proving me right.
>>108563796>>108564645>>108563744here's the real answer: yes you use a video call but on a podcast recording website. That website records the sound (and sometimes video) locally in high quality, after the interview ends the software then uploads the high quality audio to the website and the podcaster can download the video file with the two audio tracks recorded locally
>>108566905nice black and white thinking, i didn't say to use analog exclusively, even then many professionals would prefer to use an analog console like SSL 4000 and a studer tape machine if they had the time/budget, for example the one biggest example in favor of digital mixing is serban ghenea and he was lying about being fully in the box because he was still using a digital tape emulator that didn't exist in plugin form until relatively recently, the hit songs have analog gear being used before (max martin and numerous others use chandler TG-2 into 1176 to record vocals) and after him during mastering, no matter how good you think you are you're not making million dollar songs fully on a laptop, maybe if you're using samples from other songs that used analog gear
Look and seethe /g/eets. I randomly bought more RAM than I thought I needed and now its allowing me to run fullstack development and testing all at once. Here I have a huggingface loaded model with python script with react development, alongside docker and multiple intellij ides. I might not need most of the bloatware but it does make development fun and bearable. My computer doesn't notice a difference. Boy is this open source model ever gonna stop processing my data though. Legit already been running for 4 hours :(
>>108566639nah. i am planning on buying more. just bought a 512gb kit of ram despite the insane prices.
>>108566647It's a secret and you shouldn't do it because of timing mismatching but you still get dual channel if channel A has a 16GB stick and channel B has two 8GB sticks for example, as long as there is equal memory in both channels.
>>108566746It's honestly not even all that bad, the biggest problem is stability, you're not going to be OCing that kind of setup much if at all. It also puts extra strain on the IMC, but it's generally not significant. The performance is within margin of error when compared to 2x16GB of the same speed/latency.

My friend wants to try Linux. I recommended her Debian. Was this a good choice or not? I still have an option to recommend her something else since she hasn't gotten around to installing Debian yet.
>>108559573i wanna go from slackware to opensuse but i hear it's trash
Ignore these morons. Debian is an excellent OS.They do not understand the Debian philosophy. On Debian, apt is used for *system* packages. It's your default backstop, and it "just works" out of the box.If you want bleeding edge packages, it's assumed you're a power user, and you've got a bunch of options:- flatpak- snap- tarballIf you really want rolling-release bleeding edge packages for everything, we also have debian sid, which will do what you want.> I'm posting this from Debian, BTW
>>108566977> ...continuedPersonally, I have enjoyed the user experience with Debian because it feels very "pure," as close to a "default blank" linux install as you can get, while still including a package manager.Their main concern is providing you a stable base to build on. That's why Debian has spawned more variants than any other distro.I use it because I want to build my own thing, but I also want fixed releases and top-tier support. I am a software developer, but I fucking hate my work being interrupted by dropping into a "software support" flow, trying to get cutting-edge rolling-release packages to work together.When I was using Arch, I ran into a lot of those kind of issues: brand new packages just released that are incompatible with one another.I don't want to deal with that shit. That's why I like fixed release. I never have to do that with Debian. The shit just works.People complain that the packages are "old." That's because they spent two years together in testing, in Debian Sid, making sure that any bugs have been ironed out.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

My view is that it's really not a problem who contributes to open software as long as they do a good job. I decided this after seeing 6,000,001 threads on /g/ about muh trannies respecting each other's pronouns in Rust. After all those cancerous paranoid /pol/ threads, I really don't care if the Israel Defence Force contribute to the Linux kernel.Have I been psyopped?

ENERGY GATHERING EDITIONThis year's Debian Project Leadership election has only ONE candidate and it's a Pajeeta (Sruthi Chandran):>She is inactive on the mailing lists, and her Salsa profile is private so we can't even see what her coding contributions are.>She's run for DPL 4 times before; lost each time>Her entire platform is just about diversity and bitching about cis males>She intends to formally incorporate Debian in the US, which would force Debian to introduce age verificationHer only claim to fame is organizing DebConf23, an event where a Debian developer literally fucking DIED because basic health & safety measures were not followed.The election is underway right now, and Debian is FUCKED unless the Debian developers all vote NOTA (None of the above). Current DPL Andreas Tille has proposed rejecting all non-signed emails after the goyim redpilled too many voters in the mailing list kek.
