The transcode performance on the apple silicon is pretty solid if you wanted to go the media server route. Or have a really expensive NAS host lol
I have a macbook for work and I like it generally, it integrates well with other *nix environments. But if you don’t use a laptop or don’t want to have the uncomfortable interruption to your hotkey muscle memory it’s a bit useless. I’d either sell it and/or find someone in my network that needs it

This is censorship, plain and simple. It’s more important than ever to make sure we educate our children and peers about our history instead of whitewashing everything. 10 years from now I’m really hoping these events will be seen as nationalist vitriol

__ghost__@lemmy.mlto News@lemmy.world•Brittany Holberg, inmate on Texas death row for 27 years, has her conviction tossed by federal appeals court261·7 months agoLooked up this story in the local paper for a bit more context
Responding officers found Towery in his home dead from multiple stab wounds. Part of a lamp was stuck in his throat.
Unsure how this happens in a self defense situation. Imo if you were threatened and under duress you’re gonna do what you have to do, but he was 80 years old
Fearing for her life and fueled by crack cocaine, she overcame Towery and stabbed him repeatedly – 58 times according to an autopsy report. The evidence showed Holberg also beat Towery with a claw hammer multiple times. “I lost it," Holberg told jurors.
The reasoning behind the Trump-appointed judge’s dissent:
“No jury in its right mind would believe that a 23-year-old cocaine-addled prostitute ‘defended’ herself against a frail old man by (1) stabbing him 58 times, (2) bludgeoning him with various objects including a steam iron, and (3) ramming a lamp base down his throat while he was still alive,” Duncan wrote.
In the surface that’s pretty reasonable, but the issue is the planted informant being encouraged to further incriminate the defendant:
However, the majority of the judges believed prosecutors heavily relied on Kirkpatrick’s testimony – particularly her description of how Holberg enjoyed killing Towery – to secure the conviction and during the punishment phase of the trial when they asked for the death sentence.

__ghost__@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the weirdest thing you have ever seen on someone's phone or computer?45·9 months agoWorked as a computer tech in college
We had regular clients that would bring in their ten year old laptops to get “tuned up,” which normally consisted of removing whatever interesting malware they’d manage to download
One guy would bring his computer and his lockscreen slideshow and desktop would be a rotation of naked women surfing. I never looked through people’s stuff because ick, but after bringing it in multiple times you’d have seen hundreds of them
Another woman had an ancient laptop that’d probably shipped with Windows Vista that was 1 core 1 thread. It was desperately trying to run Windows 10 but was drowning constantly. You could watch the startup processes in task manager in series which was pretty cool
Had a woman deliberately hand me her phone open to her photos with like dozens of nudes while she just talked to me normally about whatever banal up issue she was having with her iPhone. Thinking about it I don’t think this was an isolated event
Stuff on the devices is typically less weird than the people
Same thing right?
