“File types” like avi, mp4, etc are container formats. Codecs encode video streams that can be held in different container formats. Some container formats can only hold video streams encoded with specific codecs.

Yeah, you either need a separate GPU or a iGPU/dGPU that supports SR-IOV. Some Intel iGPUs support it, and allow you to make virtual GPUs that can be pass-through`ed to VMs.

Because a global pandemic broke your sensor supply chain and you still want to sell cars with FSD anyway, so cameras-only it is!

This isn’t sufficient. I’ve been running DNS adblocking for a decade, advertisers have wised up to it and can easily sidestep it.

Different OSes for different use cases. You have a job to do. Just use Windows.

If you want to use Linux, use it on your own machines on your own time.

That said, there are a few things you can do if you really want to use Linux:

1. Test if the app works on Wine, Proton, etc. Even GPU accelerated apps can work, depending on the software/driver stack.
2. Run a Windows VM and pass-through a GPU. That way you’ll get native performance on the app that’s GPU intensive. Use KVM and the CPU overhead will be negligible.
3. If you’re doing 3D modeling/rendering, SFX, video editing or ML/AI, there are a lot of options on Linux. Some options that exist in Windows also have Linux versions.

These days IPP Print Everywhere support makes driverless printing easy

Because it’s easy to pull a trigger to permanently silence people who might become a slight inconvenience at most.

Yeah, is the UN trying to escalate the conflict by being attacked, blown up and chemical weapon’d by Israel?

I bet that damn UN is going to get away with it too!

This is a dumb argument and it’s still wrong. Likeness is protected by copyright laws. See Midler v. Ford.

There’s a reason he took the coward’s way out. Would have been much better to have held him accountable until the day he dies.

I’m using passkeys in Firefox everyday just fine.

I think more serious and organic discussion isn’t necessarily going to be positive all the time.
