It does memorize. But that's not actually very news.... I remember ChatGPT 3.5 or old 4.0 to remember some users on some reddit subreddts and all. Saying even the top users for each subreddit..

The thing is, most of the models were heavily post-trained to limit this...


Weirdly, Netflix on my Samsung TV it's been a few months it's using only H264. Not AV1. When they first launched AV1, it worked there...

Honestly not complaining, because they were using AV1 with 800-900~kbps for 1080p content, which is clearly not enough compared to their 6Mbps h.264 bitrate.


they may have determined the decoding of av1 was too poor or that software decoding av1 wasn't a good idea.

I mean... I bought a Samsung TV in 2020, and it already supported AV1 HW decoding.

2020 feels close, but that's 5 years.


Two years ago I bought a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 phone (TSMC 4nm, with 12 GB LPDDR RAM, 256 GB NAND flash, and a 200 megapixel camera). It still feels pretty modern but it has no AV1 support.

Is that supposed to be long-lived for a TV?

I'm running an LG initially released in 2013 and the only thing I'm not happy with is that about a year ago Netflix ended their app for that hardware generation (likely for phasing out whatever codec it used). Now I'm running that unit behind an Amazon fire stick and the user experience is so much worse.

(that LG was a "smart" TV from before they started enshittifying, such a delight - had to use and set up a recent LG once on a family visit and it was even worse than the fire stick, omg, so much worse!)


> Is that supposed to be long-lived for a TV?

I don't see anything in that comment implying such a thing. It's just about the uptake of decoders.


If, by chance, you're not running the latest version RootMyTV [0] may be an option. Or downgrade might still be an option [1].

Fire Stick is the most enshittified device (which is why it was so cheap). AppleTV is fantastic if you're willing to spend $100. You don't need the latest gen; previous gen are just as good.

Came here to comment exactly this. Even opened github expecting to see something...

What about Telegram?

Telegram, which ostensibly claimed to provide e2e but really only did in very specific circumstances? My right wing uncle is still bitter about that. Then there's the rolling over the founder did after getting pulled up by Interpol.

I'm not sure why anyone would trust Telegram.


Exactly what "rolling over" would that be?

Maybe you don't believe Durov's statement[0] about it. But is there any actual evidence anywhere that they've ever violated the secrecy of non-e2e private groups or messages for anyone? I've yet to find any.

Oh, I agree. it's just, they mentioned things like Twitter DM, Messenger and forgot Telegram...

That wasn’t the original question though. Twitter and Messenger are also untrustworthy. Telegram’s message export is very good compared to all the other options.

They are? My Linux PC have horrible perf (a 2014 Core M, 4gb RAM), and yet, Firefox opens instantly.

And Windows? And Chrome?

tbh, it's been 10 years I don't use Chrome... When I used Windows, my main browser was Edge, and was quite fast to open as far I remember, but I believe on Windows Edge stays open in background all the time anyway...

Also, what's "instantly", how much time exactly on a cold/hot start does it take after you press a key and a fully drawn/functional window is shown? Checked on an old Windows desktop (hot start), and while the empty window is shown in 0.8 sec (not too slow, but still not instant, those would be some old native apps taking 4 times less time), the fully drawn/functional window takes 2-3 sec, so definitely nothing instant

There's no ads on Revanced...


Yes, there are. But there is a toggle to switch them on and off.

You're using a fake version that probably also has malware. https://revanced.app

Not sure why mine there's no ads... Never had to toggle, as far I remember. I used Revanced Manager.

Possibly they installed it from one of the scam sites that pop up when you search for YouTube Revanced.

It's scams all the way down!

I've never seen a e-commerce fight as big as this. Brazil it's probably one of, if not the most, diversified e-commerce right now.


I actually believe this would happen.

CNN Brazil’s report asks Trump about removing tariffs on Brazil on Thursday. He mentions that there would be another “big announcement on Friday”. On Saturday morning Bolsonaro is arrested for tampering with his electronic ankle monitor, something he did late on Friday but was caught in time.

Trump says he spoke with Bolsonaro on Friday and that they were going to meet. Then the reporters says he was arrested. He gets surprised that Bolsonaro was arrested and says it was too bad...


In Brazil I think basically more than half of fixed broadband should be CGNAT.

Basically only one single ISP don't use CGNAT...

Would be interesting if Cloudflare could give this info!
