I don’t know where you are from but seeing sauna gain popularity outside Finland and Estonia lately has been refreshing. It is commonplace thing here and I don’t think we attach so much theory or consider ”using” it for any particular reaso

Careful there. Nest cams can turn ugly all of a sudden.

If me and a cat were thrown into random woods my money would be on the cat surviving for longer period. I think humans are pretty fit in groups, but cats are functional enough to make it on their own. I think human style intelligence we app

I feel it for Meta, this is a really hard problem. Why is it allowed only in certain neighbouring countries and not all? Why now? Why make exception in this conflict and not the others? I think it is hard to accept that company in US makes

War is not pandemic, but it’s recent life changing event we are all living through. I find it telling nobody even mentions it in this thread. There has been some scary moments, feeling that things are globally off the rails, lots of casualt

caulk was the word last week though? Nobody I play the game with knew that word. Granted we are not native english speakers. Too hard word every now and then is also unifying experience when everybody stops hating the player and instead hat

Probably nothing? They (or we I guess) have phone numbers and addresses as well.

I fix some stuff even if it’s more expensive than buying new one. It’s nice to keep old things going, not to produce waste and often times the new thing is cheap because it’s not ’made the way they used to make them’

Also compression. ARRI 2.5k cameras made decent images as they were lot less compressed as some 4K cameras at the time. Netflix streams 4K but often doesn’t look so great over internet compared to any cinema in my area which projects only 2

Yes I am using videotoolbox. I need to clarify that ffmpeg is not slow (it runs close to realtime bit under 20 fps) problem is that other tools reach 72 frames per second.

Yes it does. I am using hw acceleration. This is using mac hardware so not all options are available, but the ones I have tried do not make significant difference.

I’m using ffmpeg to transcode files. My users give feedback that it is really slow. At first I thought they are wrong as I believed ffmpeg is as fast as it gets, but sure enough after testing transcoding (prores -> h264) is many times sl

So the theory is that the entire profession of architects is against constructing buildings people actually want? Or that times have changed and we lack the environment and infrastructure to achieve what we once could do.

I find it amazing that most commenters find nothing good in contemporary architecture but at the same time seem to believe that if only somebody did the right thing things would be better. I think it is pretty obvious that there are hard co

Yes it probably is only the beginning. The finnish health digitalization project Apotti which currently covers only 10 municipalities or so is already said to have cost over 700 million euros. On here we always point to baltic countries and

I think trying to get average urban/rural numbers is interesting but also misleading. What matters is what is actually happening and where the harm is produced. My city is heated with district heating, which comes from coal. Thats big

Why is that ridiculous? If you set up a farm that releases GHG surely you are the producer of it. Oil industry spinned us to calculate personal carbon foot prints [1]. That’s a good tool, but at the same time it dissolves the responsibilit

In Finland tax records are public and papers make articles and search engines so anyone can look up how rich any person is (as long as they make more than 150k or so) People complain and there has been talk and steps forward about changing

Isn’t Hysteria the other way round than those other diagnoses on the list? It used to be diagnosed but since doctors don’t believe in it anymore.

Sure there are decent smart phones that only costs 100 euros, but I was referring to the fact that in 1996 communicator was deemed too expensive for consumer market, but now top of the line iphones sell huge volumes.

by ollifi 5y ago
I find it interesting that phones never got cheaper but now they are more useful so large number of people actually consider 1000$ to be ok price to pay for one.

Why 50%? Assuming we are talking about Bezos and AMZN the max tax would be 20% for long term capital gains?

There was an interview with the scriptwriter (can’t find it though) who said they wanted to make a film about nazi germany and the young people who bought into the cause. If you look at the costumes I think it is not so far fetched that was

True. Landslide is a wrong word here. I meant It had similar Nobody saw it coming -narrative attached to it. Also hard to compare vote result percentages between multiparty and two options votes.

I like high profit margins. It makes possible (but doesn’t guarantee) better design, better working conditions, smaller volumes, healthy second hand market etc. I love OP-1 but in the end it’s going to be waste. We are in huge trouble optim
