The latest Apple TV is on the A15:

There may be a new Apple TV released this year.

Six years ago Apple TV added support for playing 4K YouTube video:

https://9to5mac.com/2020/06/22/tvos-14-brings-support-for-st...

YouTube's 4K videos are only available in VP9 and AV1.

So the YouTube app on tvOS has supported at least VP9 for six years and I wouldn't be surprised if it supports AV1 today.

My 10 year old iPhone 7 can play 1080p AV1 video in software for more than 200 minutes with VLC. The iPhone 7 was released a year and a half before AV1 was.

So I think it's a safe bet the current Apple TV devices are capable of playing AV1 video in software. There's a VLC release for Apple TV:

Because shut up, that's how:

> a separator between Russia and NATO countries

Why does Russia need a separator between itself and NATO countries? What do you think is going to happen without it?

Don't worry about it. Kick back and relax with some Kash Patel branded bourbon:

You'll feel better in no time.

Try a WebAssembly implementation of solitaire: https://solitaire.xaml.live/

The C# toolchain for WebAssembly is pretty good. You can do a lot with Avalonia and Uno:

Here's a C# clone of Visual Basic compiled to WebAssembly:

Bated means the opposite of what you mean.

> The White House dismissed questions about potential conflicts, with spokesman David Ingle saying that Trump “only acts in the best interests of the American public.” He added: “There are no conflicts of interest.”

Ah, so it's not a conflict of interest so much as a confluence of interest.

That makes it all better.

> I think people need to be treated like people and not some resource to be exploited.

Meta's business model is to treat people as a resource to be exploited. It's fundamentally how the business works.

Meta regards its users as cattle, as livestock. It's why Zuckerberg thinks Facebook users are "dumb fucks":

Microsoft and Windows were never the enemy.

To quote Linus Torvalds from 1997: "I don't try to be a threat to Microsoft, mainly because I don't really see MS as competition. Especially not Windows - the goals of Linux and Windows are simply so different."

> multiple grownup movies opening widely at the same time (“Demolition Man,”

I've never heard Demolition Man described as a grownup movie before.

If a movie is well made then it is as long or as short as it needs to be. If it isn't then it's not.

The moment you said "Full is a relative term. Full compared to what?" is the moment you started playing dishonest semantic games.

I recognize you're desperate to "win", but there's no winning once you embrace dishonesty.

The subject hasn't changed. The subject is Tesla's full self-driving is not, in fact, full self-driving.

It wasn't 10 years ago and it still isn't now.

If you are unable to admit to the practical reality of that then you are not interested in technology.

> Full compared to what?

Tesla set their own benchmark, their own goal posts, and their own timelines.

In 2016 Tesla said, "as of today, all Tesla vehicles produced in our factory – including Model 3 – will have the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver.":

That was, of course, a lie. Tesla has spent the last 10 years lying about the state of FSD. Tesla keeps claiming FSD will be achieved "next year".

What about 1 million robotaxis on the road by 2020: https://www.thedrive.com/news/38129/elon-musk-promised-1-mil...

More lies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_predictions_for_autono...

But you knew all that already. Defending a decade's worth of lies is intellectually dishonest.

The AV1 decoder is dav1d. The AV2 decoder is dav2d.

One day in the mysterious future the AV3 decoder will be dav3d.

The range estimates use different test procedures. BMW's quoted range uses the WLTP test procedure. China's CLTC test procedure is much more generous.

As noted in the article:

> "The Seal 08’s claimed 1,000+ km CLTC range translates to roughly 620+ miles — though real-world figures under EPA or WLTP testing would be lower. For reference, the recently updated Mercedes-Benz EQS 450+ claims 926 km under WLTP (575 miles) with its new 800V architecture and 118 kWh battery."

To compare the range properly you need to do a real world test of the vehicles on the same circuit in the same conditions.

People are lazy. AI will replace thinking for many people. Augmentation always leads to atrophy.

No. uBlock Origin works best in Firefox: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-b...

uBlock Origin Lite can't do everything uBlock Origin does: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/wiki/Frequently-as...

If Lite is working for you then good. If you want fuller capability then you want uBlock Origin in Firefox.

Why do you want the articles to be "positive" or "negative"? Why do you not want them to simply be the fact of the matter?

If you want more good news about Tesla then perhaps Tesla should be better run. Perhaps Tesla should abandon their policy of constantly lying. Tesla's been lying continuously about full self-driving for a decade. Tesla lies about dumb things there's no need to lie about like how fast the Cybertruck is:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0AJmLvKjxw

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J3H8--CQRE

Tesla never ran that quarter mile, a lie which the lead Cybertruck engineer pathetically tried to defend. When even your engineers can't achieve basic honesty then you've got a sick company culture:

What "positive" spin do you want to see on these lies?

> What If They Could?

Then they'll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

It's a new computer and new cameras. What's your plan for doing the upgrades? Tesla says it's too hard and they still don't have a plan: https://electrek.co/2026/04/22/tesla-will-build-factories-ju...

> Drones have a limited range and limited capacity to inflict damage.

This drone has greater range than an F-35 and is cheaper to make:

How many kids do you have?

No, complaining about something offered for free because of a minor pop up is what sucks. It's a bizarre sense of entitlement.

If you don't like the website, simply don't use it. Especially when you're making no contribution to it.

What? And after all that money you paid them? The nerve!
