Comparing compression in AV1, x264, and x265

I recently got it into my head to compare the various popular video codecs in an effort to better understand how av1 works and looks compared to x264 and x265. I also had ideas of using a intel video card to compress a home video security setup, and what levels of compression I would need to get good results.... #codec #comparison #quality #encode #av1 #x264 #x265

Dynamic DNS domain registrar

Hey y'all, I've been using my.freenom as my domain registrar for the past six years without too many issues. I've kept it mainly because it has been cheap as balls. However, I am now looking for a registrar that supports dynamic dns and would love to hear your suggestions. The first results that pop up are google and godaddy...

Little bit of family joy to share

My sibling is transitioning mtf and just started hormone therapy. She has also always been a huge fan of IPAs and has been super into sharing her love of them with us (to little success). So anyways, our discord movie night comes up and she says she has some bad news. Apparently the hormones have made things taste different, and...

A good open source sms app?

Hey y'all. Like the title says, I'm looking for an android sms app. I used to use signal, but they removed support for it in October last year. I switched over to qksms which has been great, except it doesn't support video, only pictures for MMS. The default app that came with my phone doesnt support group chat titles, and sms... #android #sms #mms #open

It seemed appropriate, considering the new magazine. Not sure if the upscale made it better or worse but i would love to hear if y'all think it was a good idea or not.

Also, looking at it now, this is a pretty great way of introducing both main characters to the comic. Sure, it's a basic joke on the front of it, but it also shows Hobbes' self-awareness and Calvin's love of a good costume and his thirst for adventure.
