kjeldsendk··on Xiaomi: New CPU matches Apple cores single threaded, much faster multithreaded
As usual with claims from China based companies. It's pure lies until we have an independent test with free access.

Two rather rare words in China

kjeldsendk··on The Age Verification Trap: Verifying age undermines everyone's data protection
Surprisingly there is solutions that work just fine.

It's like bankid or myid works in Scandinavian countries.

When you need to identify yourself you are challenged by a 3rd party trusted service.

Making this a age verification should be very easy.

kjeldsendk··on EVs are depreciating faster than gas-powered cars
EVs are in the first phase of the mobile phones.

Within very few years they will be like modern phones that you only update because they're worn down.

kjeldsendk··on FFmpeg moves to Forgejo
The list seems long? https://forgejo.org/
kjeldsendk··on All four major web browsers are about to lose 80% of their funding
The headline could also be that the browser market is finally opening up to competition again.

OpenAI would be happy to buy it's way into the default search for Firefox and the other browsers.

I already made it my default search engine. It makes Google look old and shows just how much Google search is turned into a marketplace search.

kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
1) You don't think they depend on Blackmagic when they have sold their hardware to their customers.. what? 2) Let me quote someone, you: "AVID's shared media offerings are tenfold the cost of other storage options simply because they have a flag on the mounted volumes that tells Media Composer to allow project and media sharing". So what is what? And i knew you would come with a long write up about "link aggregation" you don't understand it, not a surprise!

But at least you use a car reference, AVID is the Ferrari, the "I CAN BUILD A NAS" is the useless muscle car. And of course they have gear that can handle uncompressed Footage, please, they are the standard for winning an Oscar.

I take away from this that you have no idea of how this work, it's not called "bin locking servers" that's just software. And it's not the hardware that makes a NEXIS special, it's the AVIDFS. I am only writing this for others that might read this so they understand.

Please keep this going, I am entertained

kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
AVID sells AVID branded Blackmagic hardware, come again how they aren't dependent, and as you know from your vaste fact based AVID experience that has been a problem since Apple Silicon. Bin locking is half the story, the AVID Client enables link aggregation to the NEXIS storage, 4 NICS = 4 times the bandwidth, you won't get that with 3rd party hacks. The NEXIS Storage uses a AVID custom filesystem that does what you claim isn't special, delivers sustained 800MB even if 20 clients are reading files.

Now please, before you make more fact based claims, i have used and still use the 3rd party "bin lock" solutions when I have special cases, and i can promise you, an ordinary file server does not compare when many clients are hitting the storage.

Substance delivered, lets see if there is a chance of someone learning something.

kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
It's just that you get everything wrong, if you had real experience you would know that.. for a fact. AVID depends on Blackmagic if you knew what you were talking about you would know (this is where you Google i bet)

The NEXIS hardware/software isn't just a flag, another visit to Google

During covid I ran a home made ndi solution for remote color correction.

It worked.. Kind a

kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
Before Covid your idea was the one everyone was pursuing, including AVID with a embarrassing system that i never saw a in a satisfying version.

With Covid remote access became the norm and the online/proxy workflow more or less died. Avid still has a working version (better than the original) but it's widely used.

Proxies are used for several reasons, expensive storage, heavy codecs at high bitrates or multicams.

They are typically avoided whenever you can because the online part of a proxy based workflow can be a challenge. And especially if you have tight deadlines you want all the variables out of the way.

kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
I actually tried the first version.. back in the day. But even if NEXIS is stupid expensive it's still acceptable if you have the productions for it.

One of the main reasons it's used in larger post houses is the hardware and software support that is world wide with people on site if needed.

kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
What's your experience based on? Do you work in post production on big projects?

It's their dependency on Blackmagic that's been there biggest problem the past 5 years.

Meridian was light years ahead of the competition. The firewire based adrenaline sucked.

And you won't find anyone complaining about their DX series just to bad they dropped that.

And your really not understanding the way avid nexis works if you think it's just a flag

kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
I think op meant cloud based in the sense you have to create a user account on their site and everything goes through that.
kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
On gpu encoding/decoding of the frame buffer
kjeldsendk··on Why Apple's Severance gets edited over remote desktop software
Avid does have a cloud based solution. This isn't that.

It's a clever way to have your media centralized and yet have access to editors all over the world.

And a modern AVID system does not struggle with a few editors accessing the same footage.

First of all it's usually a proxy format and Secondly the storage can deliver a combined 800MB pr box sustained for x number of editors at the same time.

Yes I avid feel free to ask.

kjeldsendk··on Denmark Offers to Buy USA (2019)
Considering we would be buying a debt of $36.273.473.800.000 i would say two fifty sounds like a fair price?
kjeldsendk··on Show HN: Sisi – Semantic Image Search CLI tool, locally without third party APIs
I have wanted to clean up my photo collection for ages and remove any nsfw picture that might hide somewhere.

Would this be able to do that and how likely is it It will see a pc release.

kjeldsendk··on Show HN: I built interactive map of active and decommissioned nuclear stations
The real reasons were many. Political nuclear was always a battlefield in Germany. Safety concerns, how long before something goes wrong. Economy, going green and gas and eventually primarily green would be cheaper than investing billions in Nuclear.

Today it's also a question of security and with what's going on I would guess Germany has no regret that they don't have these juicy targets available anymore.

kjeldsendk··on The music industry is engineering artist popularity
I wonder about the legality of buying your way into listeners discovery feed. When it's a blatant lie to suggest it's based on the listeners preferred music.
kjeldsendk··on July 2024 Update on Instability Reports on Intel Core 13th/14th Gen Desktop CPUs
Without those weirdos do you think Intel would be doing anything about this in public?

And tell us how customers that bought the most expensive part from their lineup should feel about knowing that their cpu has been over voltaged from day one of operation..

kjeldsendk··on One Year Since Germany's Nuclear Exit: Renewables Expand, Fossil Fuels Reduced
That's not true, nuclear was never the main source of power in Germany and it's been replaced by a constantly growing sustainable energy sector.
kjeldsendk··on One Year Since Germany's Nuclear Exit: Renewables Expand, Fossil Fuels Reduced
They import from all neighbors and helped France when 50% of their aging nuclear power plants were down.
kjeldsendk··on Fact checking of claims about nuclear power projects
Keeping distance to people under a virus pandemic is pretty much self explained.

"In fact, the only real purpose the guidance served was as a justification to suppress Americans’ free speech"

Says everything about that article.

kjeldsendk··on Show HN: I made a Mac app to search my images and videos locally with ML
I have been looking for something like this for ages. Sadly I am usually on windows.

How does it perform with many files?

kjeldsendk··on Full Resolution Photo Archive
What a beautiful set of photos, thank you. To those that complain, hahaha i doubt any of you would be able to produce something similar.

EDIT: WOW 4600 photos.. Nature shots, sky shots, landscapes, airshows, many different countries.. 20 years of work.. amazing All kinds of photo styles, and it is obvious that this Photographer has a talent for composing, framing and finding a motive..

Incredible

kjeldsendk··on Full Resolution Photo Archive
Except this isn't crap and it's taken real effort to get to most of these locations. Holding up an iphone and getting a photo made by Apple just doesn't compared.
kjeldsendk··on Full Resolution Photo Archive
These pictures are works of art, it's taken countless hours to create such a huge portfolio of pictures. What you are saying is, these are not to my taste, and fair enough. But putting them in same basket as other "highly saturated and heavily processed" is simply not fair.
kjeldsendk··on Introducing Google Cloud Storage Nearline
Fantastic, also support for Windows servers? And how do you lots of files and 50tb of data?
kjeldsendk··on Did Obama Just Destroy the U.S. Internet Industry?
It's safe to say that if i find a real alternative to Google Apps i will be moving a few hundred people away from Google Apps. Right now we just have to live with the 1984 feeling.
kjeldsendk··on Justin Timberlake Made a Fortune Giving His Album Away
Justin Timberlake is a cool guy that makes great music.

And.. he shares his fun times with everyone, SNL, dick in a box, motherlover, 3somes with lady gaga, jizz in my pants etc, he even made the five timers club. Then he hangs out with Jimmy Fallon for 4 days, does a new tune every day and the absurdly funny suit and tie sketch. He tops it all with his medley.

Not to mention his acting career , guesting several big hits during the time he didn't make music himself.

He might have been gone for 7 years, but he really was here all the time building his street cred to unseen heights and backing it up with an album that is worth owning, just like the previous 2.
