yea I used to use a raspberry pi but it is way too slow with a massive library. and for youtube even the 4 performance is dwarfed by some random half broken laptop. I haven’t tried the pi 5 but doesn’t really matter

It’s zipping a zip file. E

no it isn’t, zipping is lossless. encoding is lossy.

just sad…

No, the specific file size is irrelevant, he’s wanting smaller file sizes. CRF is a waste of data on more than 70% of scenes in hollywood movies. You set a bitrate and let it go. This is also why virtually all music now is VBR

flatpak does indeed deduplicate. The stuff is updated to whatever is required as a dependency to whatever programs are installed. And versions are shared between applications when versions match as well…

So I am guessing it is just like flatpak

We’re talking about rust, not corroding. Rust is only iron, nothing else.

just fyi x264 and x265 are programs, written by VideoLAN organization. h264 and h265 are the codecs

And no doing that is no guarantee in visibly worse quality. Depends entirely on the video in that scenario. Plenty of them will look almost the same (though h265 is a lot blurrier than 264, I’d say h264 to h264 you’re likely to barely notice)

oh is this the proper way to link to other lemmy stuff without sending them to the other servers domain? to add the “!” in front? I’ve seen a lot of links before, which bring you to the other site. but never the “!”

also nearly all of the stuff on that site looks like garbage that will do exactly what you said.

and yes I looked at every single program… there aren’t that many

That’s in a quote I mean you just reply that to them lol

can also just do flatpak install steam I know there are plenty of ways to get it done

installing the easier linux distros has been easier than windows since like 2004. I never understood the “it’s hard to install” out of everything else that may be legit to complain about

the only thing I can guess is the people that say that are the people that can’t get into their bios and do not know how to reformat windows either.

can you?

they already exist, the (software) interface is what needs work.

damn, of all the people you’d think those guys would actually have used the .local or .config =[

I have 73 dot files in my home directory lmao

yea that’s the joke

oh you can run the https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-mpv-shim and then just install MPV

No it isn’t & I didn’t say anything about IQ.

He said

he started to realize that what he was taught simply isn’t lining up with reality.

to realize this is a man of high logic

the software he is installing in his pic is a snap wrapper over a proprietary, closed source torrent thing. So don’t even bother.

that’s why you just compile your .flatpak file and say “gl suckas, works 4 me :^)”

oh wow that’s way worse than the crappy one he said in his actual post… He said a totally different software. He’s trying to run several things on this machine lol
