FreeBSD is also free software as defined by the FSF. ZFS is too.

This misses âoeYes - and I donâ(TM)t do any programming because the AI does it allâ.

When were you born?

They were a membership organization run by 3 universities.

Blockchain as a technology is very useful. It's just how it's pushed as some kind of magic sauce that makes everything better just to sell things. There's a similar problem with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Blame the application not the technology.

I hope the editors accept it! Do you have a Slashdot poll idea? 1. Yes, I will comment it below 2. No 3. Cowboy Neal

Indeed! I co-host an Amiga development stream (https://dosamigans.tv) and thereâ(TM)s a good community of programmers and enthusiasts out there still.

ESP-32 is about twice the $4 price.

Iâ(TM)m in academia. My institution is still open (and would make a lot of international students homeless if it closed), but my department has enacted a remote working policy.

Indeed, and for the first time ever, intelligent life is facing its own extinction and knows it is happening. Moreover, we're the first species that has the potential to do something about our survival.

That will still be a problem, as any properly HDCP-compliant capture card will not (or should not!) give you access to the data either. Every device should check the downstream devices are compliant before passing any data on, and not provide any way to intercept it. Any that knowingly do are breaking the HDCP licensing agreement and are likely to be sued.

You'll probably run into copy-protection issues with many media sources. If you can get at the bits to analyze it, you can dump them out to create a copy. I'm not even sure sharpness is going to be easy to measure, if a soft/low-res source has been artificially sharpened to give the appearance of quality. Sports broadcasts seem to be the worst for it for it from my experience, with glowing halos around high-contrast edges to make them stand out even more.

I am tempted to do the same, but my ISP would probably report me (or it would be flagged as the request went through the government's listening program) and I'd likely end up in prison. We have no rights to freedom of speech here, nor do we have an equivalent of your Second Amendment. We don't have your level of violence (yet; that's probably coming real soon now) but knife crime is getting worryingly high in our cities.

Here in the UK we tend to measure a gentleman's length in inches, but we use centimetres for height.
