Time to take off the culottes
Yep, intel processors support hardware transcoding starting with sandy bridge

To your second point I have run stremio on a chromecast and it’s been fine. But I also don’t stream anything higher than 1080p
It’s a little bit of brain damage to figure it out but once it’s all set up the *arr stuff and Jellyfin makes it pretty painless
Depends what you want to do. You can do stremio + real debrid on just about anything but if you want to do your own server I would get a cheap used tower off of eBay that has an intel processor with integrated graphics and throw Ubuntu server on it and drop in a commercial NAS drive for storage like a WD Red. I did that for ~300 and am happy with the results (half of that budget was storage)
This cursed goddamn country
Alright, best case scenario— it works. You are one with the AI. It gives you genius capabilities.
End result, brain chips are the new college degree. If you want to work in anything besides retail or fast food you have to have the brain chip to compete. Now Elon Musk, or some other bloodless freak, has a brain chip in every person who is powerful/influential. They can kill you with a push of a button.
Most likely scenario— a whole bunch of people get hurt or die for nothing.
What exactly is the upside here? It’s like fucking bitcoin. At no point does anyone in our government just stop and think these things through. “What if this works?” should be the first thing we ask ourselves
I mean slapping a motherfucker for being ableist
The only funny thing I’ve ever seen performed at an awards show was done by will smith
Is it really helpful / does it save a lot of time? I’m the worlds #1 LLM hater (don’t trust it and think it’s lazy) but if it’s a very good tool I might have to come around
I post
Well you’ll never see it under capitalism, that’s for sure.
Nuclear power is good imo. Batteries are not a viable solution to the intermittency problem of renewables, you need that baseload

The whole thing is going to zero in the long run, in my view
It’s like TVs, eventually you get to a point where the incremental features don’t really add anything to the user experience, like when they tried to do the 3D TV thing folks were like no, we are happy with HD, thanks. Once in a while we have a breakthrough in tech like 4K but once all the manufacturers catch on all that is left to compete on is price and then it becomes a race to the bottom.
Phones might be different in that they can be wealth signalers, like jewelery, but I’m not sure how much longer consumers will keep biting. What are they going to do, add a 5th camera? To what end?
Already we see the upgrade cycle slowing, sales missing targets etc. I’m sure inflation isn’t helping either.
