Why have you not joined the VP9 master race, /g/?
Because 4chan doesn't support VP9 and VP9 is worse than HEVC.
>>54797368
Wrong, read the article
>In April 2015, Streaming Media published comparative results showing that HEVC and VP9 produced virtually identical quality on the nine test samples. This was followed in November 2015 by the first HEVC comparison released by the prestigious Moscow State University (MSU) Graphics and Media Lab. In its study, MSU found that HEVC produced the same quality as x264 at 82% of the data rate, with VP9 close behind at 87%, ahead of all other HEVC codecs.

>David Ronca, Netflix’s director of encoding technologies ... stated "we are seeing very good results with VP9 vs. x264. Our current data suggests that VP9 is less efficient than HEVC, but still very good.

Post your Music Players /g/
Why change.png
My music player, if you call it that, is Google play music, wich runs in my browser.
Best thing ever, I uploaded all my music to their service, subscribed to their unlimited access streaming plan, and now get to enjoy my music across all of my devices wherever I go, regardless of wireless coverage.
I'm able to store as much music from their streaming service on my device as I can fit, so I don't chew through data when I'm on the go. The playlist syncing is great too.

No. The only good BT mouses are logitech, and only then when using their dedicated reciever.
CAT 7 is it necessary? Or CAT 6 is more than enough?
What the fuck for?

You tell me
Cat7 isn't a real thing yet.

Polaris isn't even the successor to the Fury (X) you prancing la la homo man.
Can someone draw which way the air flows on this? I'm so confused, why would it blow the hot air down? or does it not do not? fuck me ass
>>54796323
In the pic you can see some fins through the fan (top edge), also along the bottom edge, this is where 90% of the air will come out. Some air will also come out the front and back as well. Basically it goes everywhere. For open cards you generally want to remove the PCI bracket covering the slot just below it and also have a case fan blowing across the card for optimal cooling.

If camera lenses are circular, why do they take rectangular photos?
>>54796199
The sensors are rectangular, silly shitposter.
>>54796199
Because the sensor is rectangular
>>54796199
Same reason your vision is rectangular. Your eyes are circle.
Is OSX a well optimized operating system? What are its fundamental problems? I welcome any fanboys or hardcore critics of OSX to answer.
Posh OS
OS X is more optimized than windows but not vs certain Linux distros. But here's a better question. Does it really matter? If it runs smooth who cares?

apparently their graphics system is a mess, blizzard won't develop overwatch for it after a long history of supporting macs

Modern-day VR is a meme playing on the hype of a Holodeck-level experience and """""""actual""""""" virtual reality. Oculus, Vive, Morpheus and Gear are just screens, meaning they won't deliver anything you can't already experience with your current monitor and are only going to be a hassle to use compared to your current monitor. They are going to sell a couple million units and then no one will buy them when they realize it takes more energy to move around your head with a display strapped to it...

Did you even tried one?
>>54796031
You sound just like my retarded uncle when he said "wow, anon, I can't believe you bought a surround sound system. you know you only have two ears, right?"
If you don't want it, don't buy it, but don't say retarded shit to try to imply that you're better than everyone else because you don't want something.
Go buy a lifetime supply of soylent so you can start telling people how they're wasting their time by cooking and using spices.

One of the things I like about Java and Ruby is the documentation lists and specifies all the methods and properties of every built-in object, every function details what it expects, and what it outputs.
Why can't other languages do the same? Good look trying to get the same info from the python docs, not just bad examples and random ass stories about accented words in French.
I've always felt that the Java docs are complete, but absolutely horrible to navigate and read.
>>54796004
I don't think you're supposed to read the docs, it's more of a quick reference thing.
>>54796026
false, unless you only hack code others have already written.
I devote the majority of my time to reading SDK docs, that's how you truly learn about the platform
