No. Even if things change for political reasons if you are better supported with medication and therapy you should seek them as fast and safe as possible.

Support can make a huge difference today and then we can plan for tomorrow.

Remember when American tax payers gave billions to telecoms to install fiber in rural America?

Don’t worry they conveniently forgot too.

That plus other services like rural hospitals and education are huge drawbacks to living in most of rural America.

I dont take my stimulants on weekends in most cases. But in the instance where I did start to develop a tolerance we switched to a different type or class. We recently switched from Vyvance back to Aderall XR because the Vyvance efficacy was dropping.

Yikes it would be like 700$ to do my deck with that.

I do mix things up but these are my go too channels.

I’ve been subscribed to this service for decades and it’s been worth every penny.

I’m not an expert but I don’t think it’s any better it’s just less obvious due to their small population and it’s concentration on the southern border. When you get to rural and more northern areas my understanding is that they have similar problems. One difference is they don’t have the rich actively sabotaging it at every level like we do here.

Yep you are right I will amend my statement to clarify that he is a lawful resident eligible to become a citizen.

Rest of the point stand.

Why is this qualified as for now… He’s legal resident citizen and he has first amendment protection the government can’t deport him for the things he says.

Ok, since were (as a group not you specifically) are getting pedantic, I should clarify that any recording of video is inherently compressed. There is no way to capture 100% of an image ever. There is optical compression created by the lenses, then their is encoding compression created by the Analog to Digital conversion, or if capturing in analog there is physical medium compression. Film has grain size and quality which limits it resolution, analog tape is limited by the speed, width, and magnetic medium density.

So for the sake of this larger discussion Uncompressed should probably refer to the point at which the content is being captured to a medium regardless of what that medium is.

Now in the context of broadcast and professional video production Uncompressed means specifically that the transport and capture of the content is dont done without the removal of any part of the data. Now even that is a little misleading because the sensors on most professional cameras can capture higher data rates than 12G, but the transport specification only allows for 12G we have to use chroma sub-sampling to go from 444 to 422 when we put the content onto the wire.

So all that said, when I talk about Uncompressed UHD video requiring 12G I mean that no codec is applied, and no frames are dropped. We are running at the maximum specified bandwidth of our link which is 12G UHD video at 59.94 frames per second. Every pixel is written every frame regardless of if its a camera pointed at a wall watching paint dry or not.

So, last thing on Lossless compression, as a professional I frequently take issue with codecs that claim lossless quality because frequently I can see the difference between the vast majority of compressed formats vs uncompressed formats. Sometimes instantly, sometimes it takes a few min before I see the compression. Lossless compression generally is one of theos 9 out of 10 doctors things were the majority of people say they cant see a difference therefor they can claim its “lossless.” I can frequently see the difference between 444 and 422 chroma subsampling, and that is not even considered compression. I am one of the annoying people who walks into a bar and asks why all the HD tvs are set to “fill” on an SD channel.

Don’t even need to read it. It’s the biggest that to freedom ever in the history of the US. Fing NYT and their status quo opinion section.

There is still some good journalism at that paper but not ever in the editorial sections.

If you force Ads then I will replace your equipment. The only reason I use Roku is to avoid the Ads built into “smart TVs”

When its dry, brush and shop vac. If that’s not enough, then damp tarry cloth and two buckets, one with clean water, and one to rinse in, never will the two meet.

Really because it happened to me until I was able to force a software roll back which required obtaining their closed proprietary service software.

Legally none, but given that were no longer governed by law, no idea. I would say talk to a civil rights lawyer if you are a Naturalized citizen and want to participate in your first amendment rites.

The standard is defined as 12000Mbits/s and spelled out as 12G-SDI or 12G SMPTE 2110.

So i do tend to mix things up since big G and little G mean different things in computer land.

Over the air to an HD tuner looks like dog shit? What channel and location i can investigate.

If it’s a local station over cable then it’s because it’s compressed and at best 720p.

Most news is real-time transmission and over the air TV is still running very high bandwidth. It’s you plug in an HD antenna or ATC.3.0 antenna it will blow away the video quality vs Netflix Amazon or YouTube.

Like livestreams? That being the exception but most ‘content’ isn’t live.

A shocking amount of content is live, and then encoded for streaming. Given that you are on Lemmy I would guess that your interests dont overlap much with content that requires live transmission. So this is an expected selection bias, not being critical, and totally not judging, just pointing it out so you can be aware. I bet your parents still have cable.

Not all content can be downloaded, and for many people they want to watch what they want to watch right now, and waiting for the download is not something they are interested in.

Also rights holders dont want you to have an offline copy if they can avoid it, that way its easier to monetize for them.
