- Comment on AV2 v1.0 Specification Released For Next-Gen Video Coding 2 weeks ago:
Surely hardware manufacturers could be embedding AV2 starting this year? The spec has just been officially finalized, but it’s been pretty close for years; enough to figure out the hardware design for it.
I’d really like to see Apple, for instance, switch from HEVC to AV2. Less patent encumbrance, better algorithms, and they’re a member of both orgs.

- Comment on Systemd Introduces Birth Date Support for Upcoming Linux Desktop Age Controls 2 months ago:
Why is it a disgrace? Systemd is open source; you can fork it to ignore the field, or hard-code the value if you want.
This lets OS vendors/developers distribute Linux Oses that want to support this in countries that demand it, after which anyone can modify it however they want.
