Don't usually link to #twitter, but Spot wrote a *really* good thread explaining the recent #fedora change regarding hardware acceleration for #264 & h265 video.

Here's a good thread explaining why #fedora is disabling hardware acceleration of #h264, #h265, and #vc1. #linux #patents

Created a #BookWyrm account over at the flagship instance. And other than a few hiccups with account creation and importing #Goodreads data, it seems like a nice alternative.

The only downside I see with the project is the poor choice of the license it's released under (the rather dubious The Anti-Capitalist Software License).

Glad to see #ReservationDogs was renewed. Hands down one of the best TV shows around.

Hmm... looks like something in yesterday's update of the intel gpu firmware broke something in the graphics. #Fedora

Noticed one of my web servers is getting some OOM errors... probably need to add a swap or increase the RAM on it. #linux #django #gunicorn

Who's even remotely surprised that Truth Social is in financial trouble. Their business plan seemed to be just one big grift. #TruthSocial

Finishes upgrading one of his web servers to #Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS. Have to admit not really a fan of the whole Ubuntu/Debian upgrade process, but at least I don't need to do it again for awhile.

Noticed that there is a #lemmy client for #android called #Jerboa there seems to be pretty decent. Maybe it will get me to start using Lemmy more often, since I don't really spend time just browsing on my desktop machine.
