I joined lemmy when they killed Apollo. Should have done it so much sooner, this is way better!

They should join mastodon like BBC did

Everyone knows Microsoft OSs are tick-tock anyway. The failed 11 will be superseded by a well received 12, and the cycle will continue. Can’t kill 10 until 12 is fully accepted. Like 10 and 7 before it.

This game is the worst money I ever spent. It is what truly made me learn the hard way about buying on launch day

This made me snicker

Avoid disposables if possible, so much waste from tossing the batter every time. Get a nice 510 battery, I love my vessel core

I absolutely LOVE signal! And I’ve even gotten my friends convinced to sign up recently and move some of our group chats! Yay no green bubble and yay privacy!

Really depends on the service. I find 4K streaming from Apple and Disney are “close enough” to my Blu-rays I can’t tell the difference unless I stick my nose up to the TV. Now, Max? Hulu? YouTube? All “4k” garbage is so low bitrate I need to take my glasses off to enjoy it

Immorally then.

I love people, always willing to commit to the bit

In what way? Their product lineup is the worst it’s ever been expect maybe xbox, especially software like windows and office. Even Xbox is loosing to Sony and Nintendo despite being a decent product.

In the windows 98-7 era I was die hard. It was a pretty good OS. By modern standards, it’s just awful. Mac and Linux for me.

I’m obviously talking about 4K Blurays, why would I compare 1080p that makes no sense.

Exactly this, avoid re-encoding at all costs. Giant hard drives are real cheap these days

I think an existing laptop or tablet is probably the best way to go here. Only hard part is a remote

How is Apple TV not on this list? It’s miles ahead of the competition in every way

Ok but are they still selling Blu-ray’s? Who cares about DVDs?

Big brother is CBS right? You might actually be able to pick that up with a good old antenna, the 1080i digital signal isn’t that bad either

I absolutely love my LG, panel quality is unmatched, but wow is webOS terrible. Got an Apple TV and will never look back, worth every penny. Especially for how often I airplay it “just works” every time

I canceled all my services and purchased all my content on iTunes. In the long run it’s cheaper especially if you use something like cheap charts to follow sales, and I get all the benefits of streaming model while still owning my media. I’m happy!

“The always-on nature of phones and tablets is incredibly convenient. Wouldn’t it be great if your (non-ARM) laptop or desktop could do this too?”

Easy, get an M series Mac :P

Handbreak isn’t gonna do what you want, it won’t see past drm. Once you use makeMKV to remix it you can use handbreak to compress it if you want though, it’s great for that.

I use my computer as my main communication device. When I wake it up, I want all my apps refreshed and ready, texts and mail downloaded, and everything ready to go. Then again, that’s why I have a Mac 😂 works great

Kinda off topic but does anyone know of a gay porn instance? The gay sub communities on lemmynsfw and pornlemmy are pretty barren, and the rest of the communities content seem to be aimed at cis straight men (nothing wrong with that, just not what I’m looking for!)

Leechy leaches

I literally cannot figure out what you are trying to say here. Why are we talking about average americans and DVDs now?

First commenter mentioned their 4K Blu-ray rip was dramatically higher quality than what was offered on a streaming service.

I said that some streaming services offer bitrates comparable to their (4k) bluray physical release. Other services have bitrates so poor they look like shit.

You came in clarifying what type of Blu-ray I was talking about, and dvds and average americans. I think you’re the one off topic here. I don’t even own a physical bluray player - I have remuxs that I stream to an Apple TV. I’m guessing most on this sub have a similar setup with a shield or something.

I still have windows 10 on my work computer which is the only windows device I have, and it is riddled with advertisements, especially the start menu

This is Lemmy, mastodon is much more popular than lemmy.

I second handbrake. I don’t have experience with AMD but I use VTB hardware encoding on my Mac and it’s crazy fast and video quality is excellent

Steven universe, adventure time, and the first three seasons of SpongeBob are my personal favorites

I use an activated carbon filter for my bong, absolutely love it. They have them at most head shops I’ve been to, or you can get a grav online or something like that.

If you care about video quality and interface performance, Apple TV is the only option.

Get a couple Spudgers, there’s nothing better. Normally designed for opening small electronics nothing will scrape your bowl better, and even the nastiest resen washes off with a quick alcohol wipe.

Except it really wasn’t :( I couldn’t even get past the first act I was so bored. Diablo 3 had one of the most compelling stories I had high hopes for

Guuurrrllll I see yif in that URL I know better than to click it 😂 (once again nothing wrong with that, just not what I’m looking for!)

Amen

yes actually! check this out, !nsfwgaycommunities@lemmynsfw.com

Thank you!!!! I’ll check it out. And you know what, you’re totally right! I’ll be the change I want to see 😂 time to post hole

I was in the same boat as you, ended up deciding to give up the mouse and keyboard and went all in on console gaming to give up my PC. So glad I did
