But users want to be able to use hvec hardware en-/decoding, so manufacturers supply it.

Yes calculators already had this for many decades, but it just shows how much more energy a common remote uses for not having been able to use it. Now most remotes for new devices are just bluetooth and not IR based, and BT chips have become so much more power efficient that it can work good enough with a solar-element on the remote to add enough charge to the battery so it doesn't drain too much by usage. As during the day most remotes are not in use, so keep charging.

I think as a user you have every right to sue them for removing a hardware feature it was advertised with. The only reason they removed it was because they didn't want to pay the extra license fee as they lost a lawsuit for patent infringement. But I also wonder if you could just enable it again with a (hacked) patch, as they removed it with a patch.

AV1 is only supported on newer chips, not older, so for a LOT of devices AV1 is still not being used as software decoding of it is very slow on any older device not supporting AV1 through hardware.

The point is, the HEVC hardware encoders are disabled due to this lawsuit and HP/DELL not paying the extra money to keep hvec running on these devices.

But this has nothing to do with chinese technology, it's also with US hardware or even european. And if you think those are harder to hack by chinese, think again.

It's been put in the media like it is a big problem and a secret backdoor, but it's nit, it's the standard over the air update mechanism which is documented. And the problem they seem to emphasize is with any modern car, bus or truck which has connected services, not only chinese busses. The article is too much geared toward it being a chinese problem, which it's not. US and european busses also have the same type of problems.

That's something I can attest to, my nephew doesn't bother going through tutorial or explanation at the start of the game and then gets frustrated if he doesn't know what to do, which is explained during the tutorial.

Where was the legislation when all factory workers were replaced by machines? Where was regulation when all typists were replaced with computers. Where is legislation to prevent creating reports from data? Trying to create legislation for this is just ignorant and moronic. They should invest time into coming up with how to deal with all those people losing their jobs to further automation by AI and robots, as in, find a solution to transform society to where you don't have to earn money for housing, food, healthcare and education. You can't stop people from using AI to automate stuff.

It depends what they watch, but I see my little nephew (10 years) watch a lot of youtube, but only shorts, and that's a problem as he doesn't have the attention to watch anything longer as 20 minutes. So by only letting them always watch shorts, you create a problem. I was raised with watching TV, half hour and hour long shows, but also longer movies.

You mean just like the US?

Not only FROM nazi weapons, but also BY captured nazi scientists, US space program wouldn't be anywhere without the knowledge nazi's brought.

I think Blazor might also have something to do with that. Not having to switch languages for frontend opens up the door for many C# backend developers and in that case also for new developers they only have to learn one language to do everything. Frameworks like angular and vue have very high learning curve compared to Blazor (but still have the better package support, as blazor components still have to grow).

We all knew Brexit was bad for the UK, the only people profiting from Brexit are the people behind Brexit. I think it would suit the UK to reverse Brexit and join again, that would be the best for regular folk.

I guess you never played the Teambeef ports on your Quest 3 (sideloading). With my Pico 4(the original) I still play mostly native games, still need to upgrade my PC to really enjoy PCVR games.
