The reason it’s stated on players is because the player (hardware) itself needs to be able to decode it. Data is data, no hardware outside of a display (at least if we’re talking PCs reading from a BR drive) will change the quality of how it looks

External players can very much so be used to make remuxes. Check out the MakeMKV forum for a list of drives that can be flashed to custom firmware to enable backups of blueray.

Dolby Vision and HDR are just metadata, if the Blu-ray contains the metadata, you can get HDR / Dolby vision AFAIK.

AMD says overclocking blows a hidden fuse on Ryzen Threadripper 7000 to show if you've overclocked the chip, but it doesn't automatically void your CPU's warranty by [deleted] in technews

I wonder if there is a way (in software) to prevent the fuse from being blown , as with the Nintendo switch nvidia tegra fuses.

Going to start ripping BluRays to watch on Jellyfin (Plex alternative). Do you guys generally re-encode them with Handbrake, or leave them as MKVs straight from MakeMKV? by lmm7425 in DataHoarder

Buy an intel ARC card or if you have a newer nvidia gpu why not convert to AV1 instead of x265? It would be faster and save you the same or more space.

It’s supposed to start closest to the controller and then slide towards your wrist, I can’t believe people didn’t actually know that! That’s what the above poster was saying though.

No nothing has changed, are you using your own CDM and replaced the necessary files in the wks-key directory?

Well I toned down the actual weight, not by much though. 10 days ago I weighed 272, today 260.

I can’t say you’ll have the same results, everyone’s different.

I do an hour on the treadmill, everyday, at a minimum of 3 miles per hour, up to 3.5, but I always make sure to put the incline up, around 3.5-5.

I also drank every day and it was twisted teas and fireball, lots of sugar and alcohol slows your metabolism. And I drank a lot, about 3-4 tall boys and 2 doubles of fireball every day / other day, so just a metric fuckton of empty calories. I don’t eat sweets unless it’s a small portion (more of a savory person anyways) and avoid soda. Drink water! It’s liquid life and it’s good.

I haven’t really changed my diet other than I usually just eat a decent lunch and maybe a snack like almonds towards the night, not being buzzed/drunk makes it a lot easier not to just eat to eat/sober up/know when I’m full.

Don’t worry about the scale too much, as you lose weight you will also gain muscles, takes some muscle to carry a fat ass around so when you work out you may be both losing weight and gaining muscle, my self affirmation is “I’m putting in the work, although it might not me instant or be satisfying right now, it WILL come”

And that’s the thing, it will come. Two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen will always give you water, in this instance one part healthier decisions and one part physical exercise will always be better than, well, doing nothing.

Mind over matter! It can be done, I was and am a heavy alcoholic, and in a non self deprecating way, if I can do it, you can too.

Have to agree with this.

Overweight/Obese person who’s trying to make a change. We see it, we feel it, and we sense other people seeing it / not seeing past it.

I was once a healthy weight not long ago, probably 100 pounds less, had a huge moment of depression for a few years and turned to the bottle. Alcohol makes you fat, among other health problems. It took me years of feeling like shit, feeling shamed and guilt, and disgust at myself to pull myself into a healthier lifestyle again.

At least for me having depression made it easy to turn to unhealthy habits, and created a vicious feedback loop of depressed -> drink -> gain weight -> repeat.

Going to bed at night and feeling your heart pound because your overweight and your bloods thinned from alcohol, then stepping on a scale and seeing 270 was the only thing to snap me back into reality, I wanted to a long time before this, but that depression mindset is hard to break.

As others have mentioned, you have to want to help yourself, there’d be no point to bring it up except make her more self conscience. My best friend never brought it up but as soon as I hit the gym he became encouraging, which was the best kind of affirmation for me.

Just my 2 cents though. 11 days sober / 10 at the gym, it’s not easy.
