I think there is a lot of absolutely incredible open source software.

Blender seems incredible. 

VLC media player is incredible. 

FFmpeg is incredible feature set wise.  

But I feel like I haven't seen anything as good as like Microsoft Word even.

i should add that my Plex server is running an i3-14100 with no dedicated gpu.  

The integrated GPU should be really good at live transcoding, but it's not necessarily something I want to count on.

Earlier today, Grok was unfortunately manipulated by adversarial prompting into saying absurdly positive things about me.

For the record, I am a fat retard 😀

Lost is probably my all time favorite show ever. Sure it had issues in later seasons but dang the character arcs and twists and turns were awesome, imo.

i watched a bit of lost season 1 but i hated it.


i watched twin peaks a few years back just because a good friend of mine wouldn't shut up about it.   not horrible but not nearly as great as i was told.

Fraid not. 

I remember watching the pilot when it first aired. My mom drove me home from speech therapy, we got panda express, and then we watched it live.

I was so confused. Mostly about the fact I didn't know what "pilot" meant for a tv show
