Sorry, I’ve already donated all the Plasma I can safely donate! /s jic :)

No reason to avoid it. Just know that you can’t easily shink the filesystem, only grow it. To shrink you’d need to create a new FS then copy the data over manually.

Hey, if these companies want the job done right they should hire a professional to do it! ;)

Hmm. Maybe systemctl enable rc-local because I was too lazy to get the service order correct and I just wanted something to happen last and be done with it.

Is it incest or masterbation?

As a cyclist I make aggressive eye contact with drivers, I need to see you seeing me before I know I’ve been seen.

Definitely Steven Seagal in that reggae song he did. This one.

I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that even the United States FBI recommended using ad blocking extensions to protect yourself online.

Eliminate the submiminum wage mentioned in the article, then increase the minimum wage to something you can live on

oflag=direct

Prevents the writes from piling up in the cache. dd will report the transfer is done when the writes have been cached so this setting prevents dd from exiting until the data has been written completely to the block device.

Neat! I’ll have to try that out.

dd, or cat with a shell redirect are all you need to write that iso.

My trouble with dd is all the flags I need to remember to make it fast and more convenient. dd if=file of=/dev/device oflag=direct status=progress bs=1M is there anything I’m missing?

Oh yeah it’s totally an appliance OS built around Kodi and not a general purpose OS. I do use it to watch YouTube though. I’ll “send to Kodi” from my phone and it plays on the TV. I use a full desktop computer for all the other stuff you mentioned. I only brought up Kodi on the raspi because this meme specifically calls out videos, which do work quite well (as long as it isn’t a vc1 encode apparently).

Yeah I can’t speak to that as I don’t have anything encoded in vc1. After a quick search I see that’s a proprietary Microsoft codec so that’s probably why I didn’t encode anything with it.

Huh. I use a Raspberry Pi 5 as a media center PC running Kodi / libreelec… Literally all it does is play videos and music. Even 4k h.265. This meme makes no sense to me.

Tree style tabs is my enabler 😖

Shoot me $12

I agree with you that the gui toolkit is pretty uninteresting from the users pov, or at least mine. I do wonder if the multi-threaded transcoding pipeline changes in ffmpeg 7 will improve performance in handbrake at all. I’m not sure if Handbrake calls the ffmpeg cli or not.
