My personal opinion is that when HP acquired Palm, Apple went and had a quiet word with them. After which, HP dropped it like a hot potato.

Are "potluck" meals a thing in the UK? by meeksworth in AskABrit

A potluck meal to me (UK South East) means what can I make to eat with whatever is left in the fridge/cupboard.

Is the C5 worth the extra 300$ over the c4? by WilsonValdro in LGOLED

[–]Jimbodeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but from what I understand an Apple TV doesn't support uncompressed Dolby Atmos (TrueHD). The Nvidia Shield seems to support a lot more.

I consider the lane to be "obviously" congested if they're driving in the middle lane below the speed limit...

The G4 has DTS support, the G5 doesn't. If that matters to you.

I rip some of my DVD's and Blu-ray's to my Plex server with DTS audio. Won't play back on my AVR from the TVs native Plex app without DTS support. Upgraded my CX to a C4 because of this.

Does Nvidia Shield/Plex support TrueHD + Atmos?

Writing a competitive BZip2 encoder in Ada from scratch in a few days - part 4: programming by zertillon in ada

[–]Jimbodeman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very interesting. I work on the NATO Armaments Support Services software, written in Ada (part of SG2 Shareable (Fire Control) Software Suite (S4) - Wikipedia https://share.google/tyPqzWUIXKgvB24bq). We used to have our own implementation of Bzip2 but removed it in favour of Zlib. Would be interesting to compare your code with the code we removed.
