Showerthoughts maybe?

Why would I recommend Fileflows? It was a little more user friendly in my experience without requiring pulling in configurations from other sources. I know there are repos chalk full of Tdarr settings and configs, but for simple setups and DIY I preferred the Fileflows interface. The end result is basically the same, so pick your poison.

Isn't AMD's HEVC/265 still decent, specifically? I feel like I read that somewhere years back. 264 has always been a weak spot for them, however.

Isn't this almost the inverse argument to the android vs iPhone thing? Like the iPhone being (traditionally) more expensive for the "same technology from 5 years ago"? I don't really have a horse in this race, I'm a firm believer in use what you like and is easiest/best for you. But I do feel compelled to call this one out a bit.

I might recommend fileflows over tdarr- but either way some kind of similar solution is almost mandatory with the grab bag of arbitrary encodings you find out there.

Very true. But brute force checking through tons of different settings for each camera you need to configure is not fun. I couldn't seem to find any kind of "known working configs" database or anything either. Every camera seems to be different in what it expects, outputs, authenticates, etc. Once it's set up, I agree, maintaining the config is easier. Having all your cameras match in model and firmware version probably makes the whole endeavor MUCH easier.

AmCrest and Frigate together are SO good. Integrating Frigate with Home Assistant was also insanely easy for quick viewing and notifications. That initial Frigate config is a bit of a bear- but once you're past that I cannot speak more highly of it.

Alright, where's my replacement once my current Fitbit dies? What company makes a watch that tracks steps, heart rate, sleep, spO2, notifications, is generally water resistant (light swimming) and has a battery that lasts ~5+ days? Bonus points for open firmware/hardware that doesn't require me to design my own apps/systems for each of those items. I don't even use most of what my Versa 3 can do, but I know it won't last forever and I'd at least like an idea of where to go if/when it breaks down.

On windows the article mentioned being a microcode patch via Windows update. Linux would be similar- but via a kernel update most likely. I'd assume that a general BIOS update would also do the trick, but then you're relying on motherboard vendors and it's unlikely many would provide such an update to older hardware, even if it's still widely used.

Difficult to exploit, already in the process of being patched. Truly, the most breaking of news.

I think they meant it as "once infected may be impossible to disinfect." But it sure doesn't read that way at first glance.
