I tried jellyfin/emby for the third time about 6 months back. I had heaps of encoding issues (not playing) with x265 and lots of issues with dolby encodes (running it through my home theatre from a 2017 nVidia shield using the official client). I even went so far as to run a separate ffmpeg instance but no dice. Until it’s not a hobby project and ‘just works’ I’m not interested.

It’s been the same for 20 years at least. My first nVidia card was a geforce2 but I had an integrated SOC one that borrowed main board memory before that called a RIVA TNT 2. Prior to that had an ISA SVGA card but can’t remember who made it:

lol. Yeah navigating any driver website is a pita. I just search nVidia driver download and it drops me there.

That’s what in used to use but there are some features you can’t access without the physx components so I get the whole package now. For baseline it’s good for sure.

They’ve never been hidden. You just go to the website, put in your model and download it. There’s apps that do it for you now which is where this must be coming from. Still doesn’t change the fact you can directly download the driver.

Also great for bee life and other pollinators. The reason they stopped putting it in lawns was because of selective herbicides that kill all plants EXCEPT grass and some marketing fuck-knuckle (string them all up and ban the teaching of marketing) decided that clover had to go so they could sell herbicides that also kill pollinating insects. Happened in the 50s I think.

And more understanding and acceptance of who you are and what you want/need.

30s is really a great time. Around 35 is when your body will start telling you about all those times you didn’t take care of yourself, so stay fit and eat right and you should be having the time of your life for the next 20 years.

Or any white folks who disagree with bigotry, based on my experience being a straight white guy who doesn’t understand why what colour your skin is, or who you love makes you somehow less human.

No but they’re the useful idiots the folks with money and no desire for the spotlight chose to use.

There are a number of animals considered unclean and most of it goes back to which animals had diseases before modern agriculture and veterinary practises. I.e pigs used to be riddled with tape worm. Dogs were often carriers of other parasites and if wild likely rabid. There’s some common sense behind it historically but most modern practitioners don’t think about those things.

Muslim drivers and some other cultures also want nothing to do with dogs.
