And one of the highest payers, Qobuz, is missing

Keep waiting, I won’t indulge for your imaginary definition. The Linux kernel is not defined by whether or not it can run desktop or server distributions.

Your uneducated made-up definitions of what is Linux kernel or not don’t change reality

A patched and modified Linux kernel is still a Linux kernel

“trading convenience for security” was what my comment responded to. Using your phone to pay is not compromising security in any way, quite the contrary actually, and I explained why.

In France, everybody (barring most gas stations, even if I have seen some with tap-to-pay nowadays) can take tap-to-pay, even the remote mountain refuges I have been hiking to. You can even pay tolls and parking with it now.

And somebody even more old-school than you would think you’re a fool not taking cash or checks with you as a backup for your card. I’ve been paying with my phone for years without any problem, I just take my card when I need to refuel my car or traveling, and most of the time I have to check my card pin code anyway on my phone because I never use it.

And if my phone is off for some reason, well I have my watch.

Cards on smartphones are more secure than the real cards. You need a pin on your phone to pay, with a card you can pay up to 50€ without any approval.

Also, should a transaction be intercepted, the pirate would only acquire a Digital Account Number (DAN), which can be invalidated to disable the virtual card on the phone. You can still use the physical card and you can add another virtual card on the same, or on a different device.

If a payment made with your physical card is intercepted, the pirate gets the Primary Account Number (PAN) instead. It means that you must disable the real card as well as any virtual card relying on it, and requires you to await a replacement from your bank, and switch all your payments to this new card.

You are so fucking dense. “Somebody did it first, it’s too late it’s already on the internet so now it’s open bar” is not an excuse. You use the same arguments as those who share revenge porn and child porn.

You all are repulsive fucks without any decency, and moron with the cognitive capacity and maturity of edgy teenagers.

Don’t

Post

Children

Faces

On the internet

Especially if it’s not yours

Don’t expose children to the internet, how is it that hard to understand

This is clearly a post putting a target on that man, let’s stop being obtuse here. I don’t care about shaming him publicly as he is a piece of shit, but don’t expose children to this, or you’re a piece of shit too. For fuck’s sake, have some decency, even if their father have none.

I’ve blocked Tiktok, Twitter and Instagram on my network and refuse to use them, so I won’t look at your link.

Don’t post children’s faces, what the hell, what’s wrong with you all

You’re right, but the power is so low that you won’t see anything using an ammeter

You do are managing your AA batteries: you have a dedicated charger for rechargeable AA batteries, and you put yours to charge when you swap them out. That’s just your routine so you just don’t consider that it’s not bothering.

You could just as well put your controller on it’s charging stand/plug it when you’re done playing. Or plugging it after your gaming session when it notifies you that it’s starting to running low.

Since you’re already managing charging things, what prevents you to put your controller to charge when you’re done playing?

Definitely not. All modern chargers are made to negotiate with the charging device for power and voltage, including sending none because the device is full.

What happens if your controller dies and you’re out of AA batteries?

Wether you like it or not, some people don’t have the luxury to stop fighting, even more so right now with so-called democratic governments that brutalize, lock up and torture people for their opinions, their sexuality or their skin color.

Ignore these debates if you wish, and disconnect from social networks if you need to rest. But don’t call for people to stop fighting when their very existence is put at risk by people like DHH, that Framework decided to support.

AV1 is not an encoder. If you watch AV1 encoded videos, you’re using AV1.

That happens all the time. There’s no way to guarantee that it won’t happen with any codec or really with anything.

Yes, so there’s no reason to hold back on releasing updates, since it could very well happen on AV1.

It is very expensive to defend against even when the claim is bogus.

The principle behind AV1, once again, is to have a modern codec that is out of reach from patent trolls. Those who are part of the AOM consortium, which developed this codec, have all contractually agreed to unconditionally license all patents they hold that are necessary for the implementation of the codec.

And those who are not part of the consortium and who would like to claim patents relating to the AV1 or AV2 codecs would have to face the legal teams of the companies part of said consortium, including Amazon, Alibaba, Adobe, AMD, Cisco, Google, Intel, Microsoft, Mozilla Foundation, ARM, Huawei, Samsung, Tencent, Meta, Nvidia, Apple, Netflix, and other large companies.

The AV1 and AV2 codecs, after perhaps H264, are the most secure codecs available today in terms of patent trolls. Nobody has both the will and the means to attack it.
