I’ve had it for a couple of months now. Sure, it sucks, and I can’t work currently, but I’d much rather have this than die though. This will pass (almost everyone gets better in a couple of years max), death is rather final. Also, don’t kid yourself about the people that had COVID but don’t experience long covid. Many of them have permanent changes to their body too, they just don’t know it.
This may be a stupid question, but I just got back into pirating some shows and movies and realize that many of the QxR files are much smaller than what I downloaded in the past. Is it likely that I am sacrificing a noticeable amount of quality if I replace my files with the smaller QxR ones?...
Be warned though, some x265 stuff out there, particularly at 1080p and lower, is a reencode of a x264 source file. So lower filesize, but also slightly lower quality. Scene regulations say only higher resolutions should be x265.
This used to be the norm, not a weird thing that noone has thought of before. If you do this your kernel will be a lot smaller, boot faster, and be a bit more secure. Once you’re booted it won’t make any meaningful speed difference though.
We did it? (lemm.ee)
Are movie and show file sizes more efficient than they were years ago?

What happens when Linus dies/retires?
Will we all be fucked or is there a Linus 2?
