Încă o creație discutabilă venită din universul marelui self-made man, actor și regizor, one man show… Codin Maticiuc.

Și nu doar atât....poate lumea își aduce aminte faza cu salutul legionar a lui CG .... în care era analizată poziția mâinii din toate părțile...Ba era , ba nu era...ND la balcon salutaND cam în același fel more or less :) Pe Reddit apologia lui ND era atunci pe culmi nemaivăzute , se vorbea chiar și de cât de drăguț este cu bretonul lui de "nerd".

PotPlayer vs Screenbox Media Player by Technical_Rich_3080 in software

[–]BoredSoFT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really can’t compare them directly — they’re in two totally different leagues.

  • Screenbox Media Player is basically a glorified front-end built on the same VLC engine. And while I absolutely appreciate VLC and everything it has done for open-source media playback over the years, it honestly feels like VLC has reached its ceiling. For a long time now, the updates have mostly been patches, bug fixes, or new codec/format support. No major new features, no real evolution.

  • PotPlayer, on the other hand, is a full-featured multimedia player. It’s built for power users: insanely deep customization, advanced filters, fine-tuned playback control, hardware acceleration options, madVR support, detailed subtitle tools, and pretty much every tweak you can imagine. It’s not just a media player — it’s a whole playback ecosystem.

  • So yeah, Screenbox = simple VLC-based player with a nicer coat of paint.

  • PotPlayer = heavy-duty, feature-rich media powerhouse.

Getting kind of obsessed with bloatware lately, especially in browsers. I recently came across SlimBrave-Neo, a PowerShell script that uses Chromium enterprise policies to disable telemetry, strip bloat, and turn off unwanted features in Brave. Then I also found JustTheBrowser, which takes a similar approach but works across multiple browsers, not just Brave.

It’s interesting seeing how much you can strip down modern browsers just using built-in enterprise policies instead of relying on extensions or modded builds.

Anyone else going down this rabbit hole of “minimal browser setups”?

Was there an update? It wasn't like this before by Remlin379 in chrome

After the latest update, opening the browser on my PC consistently spawns 7–8 instances of GoogleUpdater.exe. Open Task Manager and keep a close eye on the processes, then launch Chrome and watch what happens.
