ah that's reassuring and good to know, after the recent Google stuff i just assumed every existing technique/algorithm was equally vulnerable

i've been working on rebuilding my ZFS pool with native encryption enabled, but no joke choosing from the list of ciphers already kind of feels like bailing water on the Titanic

OwnTone Linux/FreeBSD DAAP (iTunes) and MPD media server with support for AirPlay devices (multiroom), Apple Remote (and compatibles), Chromecast, Spotify and internet radio.

hadn't heard of SendSpin, that's cool and seems like something that needs to exist. i use OwnTone to do the same for AirPlay devices around the house, maybe he'll add SS support and basically make it the Home Assistant of mix-and-match streaming audio endpoints

99% of my YT is on a Google TV, probably no good blocking options there, and i'll be moving to an Apple TV soon where there definitely aren't

this is/was my plan when the Alder Lake-N successor boxes start showing up (not Gentoo though) but the RAM crisis is going to make that project dramatically less appealing. wish i'd socked away a $40 SODIMM last year when i had the chance

the idea of sneering at folks performing enormous amounts of highly skilled labor for the benefit of everyone, for free, will never stop blowing my mind

we've had a Frigidaire for like a decade that's still going strong and hasn't ever needed anything besides standard maintenance

i'm also waiting to see what's up with the new Apple TV but it sounds like the odds that they're gonna add proper Dolby Vision FEL support are low sadly

interesting, will keep this in mind. per some tips from various people i updated the firmware (it was still on 1.0.0) and the chattering seems to have basically gone away now -- maybe they tweaked the debouncing algorithm post-launch?

reminds me of a Carmack quote from the height of id Software that if you had infinite processing power you'd skip triangles entirely and just do everything with voxels. been looking for that quote for years but haven't ever rediscovered it

yeah in fairness he did do the work, I was one of his editors for a hot minute at GameSpot when he was still in the thick of the Final Hours feature series (think Prince of Persia SOT was the only one I touched)

OLED vs QD-OLED: What Is The Difference? - Display Ninja Here are the main differences between OLED panels (JOLED and LG's W-OLED) and the new QD-OLED panel by Samsung.

a lot of OLEDs use unusual subpixel layouts so it's definitely a thing, subject to model and personal preference (and maybe what software you're running)
