I’m a scrub that pays for YouTube Premium and I’ve also been running into songs and videos that just don’t play recently because I’m using uBlock Origin.

I use it a few times a week, usually while at work. Normally to visit a dead link or to find old or outdated info.

I remember these. Tried them once and never again. It’s a cool gimmick but pricey.

Nah, just the basics is fine. I would recommend Griffith’s and then moving on to Shankar.

It’s also really important to remember that QM is really a formalized algebra of probability/stats, so it’s really really important to get a good grasp of that. QFT and all that comes after understanding the basics. It’s a fuck ton of work, but I think it’s rewarding.

I’d really recommend going through the basics about learning QM. Specifically: classical mechanics, a very good stats & probability math course, calc prereqs, intro to QM, intro to thermal/stat physics, maybe an atomic course, intro chem course. I’m not sure of the exact steps, but as a physics undergrad major, it’ll “click” after a certain amount of prereqs and if you need any help, feel free to PM me and I’ll gladly be of assistance (as far as I can remember, at least).

Yep. I’m so over American politics and I think the nation is headed in the wrong direction. I feel that the people are powerless against changing our trajectory. I had been considering doing a PhD abroad and this is really pushing that decision now.

It’s spam. OP is blasting the link everywhere

I’d argue it depends on who is serving it and what their intentions are. I don’t think it’s necessarily bad. I went to a local Juneteenth celebration and the food stands were serving some fried chicken, collard greens, jollof rice, etc.

Nothing particularly, but it would let LW and other instances distance themselves from the lemmy.ml admins.

Tbh this is one of the reasons why I’m looking forward toward Sublinks

Maybe Thriftbooks? They do offer shipping to Canada but it’s not always cheap.

I look at the contributors on Github and check them out. I’ll check out what else they’ve worked on and maybe see if they have an account on mastodon or twitter. Maybe I’ll ask some friends if they’ve used or heard of the product, or know of the devs.

There is indeed malware disguised as OSS and you do sometimes have to vet them. I’ll skim the codebase and see if there’s anything that looks weird or funky, but that’s not perfect (like in the case of the xz) and some stuff can slip by.

I’m not sure off-hand since I’m not too familiar with VLC.

I would imagine it could be an issue in a graphics driver at the kernel (amdgpu?) or user level (mesa?). It could also be a problem in something higher up.

I would recommend posting an issue in the VLC repo and see if you can get better support that way.

Can you turn off hardware decoding and see if it works then?

I use it all the time to help simplify long excerpts, giving me an introductory gist of what something says.

You could write C or assembly and it would be compiled to something that would run on an embedded chip. They may or may not be running an RTOS.

This is being used in a LoRa module (it’s a Reyax RYLR896 (which is not great for my purposes ngl)). The STM32 acts as an intermediary between its UART interface and the LoRa module’s SPI interface, basically doing some rough translation and some encryption, nothing major. I believe the LoRa stuff has its own crystal, so I would imagine there is no need for an external source.
