Dad took me to see the five-hour cut in a cinema when I was barely out of my teens. If not for these sorts of excursions I wouldn't venture much beyond current-year slop as an adult. Getting thrown in the deep end works.

I don't understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

The risk equation makes sense. The potential gain from outlasting your competition and absorbing their subscriber bases to become a near-monopoly is higher than participating in a royalty scheme, and the downside is borne by shareholders and to a lesser extent creditors (the Other People's Money principle).

When government/corporate services are involved, I suggest doing as much as you can via the web browser as opposed to app, in the interests of privacy and civil liberty.

So long as it's going through the browser we have a degree of control over functionality and connectivity. Apps strip that away. Apps are you doing everything on their terms, while suffering an ad (their logo) on your home screen rent-free. You can pin browser bookmarks to home as well in Android.

This film's second act has a stereotype/racial epithet montage that will always be funny.

KDE Plasma 6 reboots on video playback (lemdro.id)

submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

6 comments fedilink

Since about Plasma 6 onward I've been getting system restarts when attempting to play back video files and/or seek through them.

Kernel 6.5.0-41

KDE neon 6

Plasma 6.1.2

Qt 6.7.0

Ryzen 7 3700x CPU

AMD R9 390 GPU

16GB DDR4 RAM

The system will crash and reboot when:

Attempting to play any video with an mp4 container (mpv and vlc tested)
Attempting to seek with the mouse while playing most videos (mp4 and matroska)
Scrolling too fast in a file manager
Clicking and dragging to resize various windows (terminal, browsers, etc)

The system performs fine when:

Playing videos in a webm container
Playing videos in software like avidemux, kdenlive, gwenview, etc.
Streaming video in a web browser

The issue has persisted through these toubleshooting measures:

Update to latest BIOS firmware
Switching between Wayland and X11
Substitution of the PSU to a brand new unit

My assumption so far is that it's not hardware related. Currently I suspect it's Plasma. Below is the journal output of records around one such crash time of 5.19-5.20pm:

Suggestions for next steps would be welcome. Is it worth considering a rollback to the previous/older Plasma versions? Assuming Plasma doesn't like my DAC or keyboard or whatever, is it worth substituting or removing USB devices?

The carving of raw potential (Monos, Alejandro Landes, 2019) (lemdro.id)

submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

First of all, Monos is a film set in the jungle, so you know it's already good (see Raiders, Jurassic Park, Sorcerer, Predator, Apocalypto, etc.). Secondly, Landes has an eye for scene composition and potent metaphor. Thirdly, it gets awfully good performances out of a mostly amateur cast.
