how did you choose your fursona species? in c/furry@pawb.social
[–] Senil888@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago

I chose a synth (draconic lizard bot basically) because a) lizards and dragons are neat, and b) robots are neat. And so I thought "why not both?" found synths, and said "yep that's me."

AV1 is goddamn magic. (pawb.social)
 

that's it that's the post.

JK, but seriously though. AV1 is incredible and I NEED support for hardware decoding to accelerate and fast. I just shoved an 18GB Blu-ray movie into 5 gigs with room for improvement. I can get stream worthy 1080p60 video at 6000kbps when I need at least double that if I use x264. Even at a ok encode speed, the 1080 6000kbps video on YouTube looks pretty good all things considered - sure my super high bitrate x264 video looks clearer, but it's also at least double the file size on my disk.

I could probably real-time CPU encode my streams with AV1. I could definitely do it even better with hardware encoding.

AV1 is black magic. It feels wrong.

Turn off auto-collapse of long posts by default? (Mastodon) (furry.engineer)
 

Is it possible to turn off the post auto-collapse glitch-soc provides by default, so people who want it can opt-in to it? It's personally pretty annoying to expand every post, and while there is a way to disable it there seems to be the occasional problem where it resets that flag.

As mentioned in that post, it's not great if getting more creative types is a goal - auto-collapse includes images, not just text. Sharing art, commission open status, etc. would be pretty hampered if every post gets hard collapses.

Sync for Reddit dev ljdawson is creating a client for Lemmy (www.reddit.com)
 

ljdawson has also created a community on lemmy.world (https://lemmy.world/c/syncforlemmy) to discuss development, features, etc. Just a r/RedditSync has operated.

I'm excited to get the experience of Sync here on Fedi! Sync has been how I've experienced Reddit for years now, and I can't wait to see how this project goes.
