You don't need anything so complicated.

Take two copies of the same video, diff them and only keep the parts that match.

We can also build up a database of as signatures to automatically identify them without requiring a watermark - we already have the technology to do this for detecting intro sequences for skipping.

I feel like games have gotten less realistic in recent years. Like we had destructible terrain on the PS2 with red faction and games today still don't really do it.

Who cares? If even just one person on the fence sees the support Walz has in a community he cares about, then the rally did its job.

Nah this isn't usual Nintendo bullshit, this guy was installing pirated games as part of his mods - he's brought this on himself.

Now that's not fair, he's got plenty of nice things to say about Putin and his daughter.

Yeah, really want musk to buy it...

They said they were sharing the Elmo money with those who originally helped them buy that plot.

I agree with that, though I suspect it's still running the full render pipeline in the background but I was particularly confused about why OP expected memory usage to drop

[-] Kushan@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago

Why would you expect pausing a game to use less memory?

Screech literally did porn.

I have a Nas running nextcloud for general ease of automatically backing up anything important from my phone or pc.

Nextcloud and important things from the server are backed up using a tool called "restic" which honestly does not get enough mention here.

Restic is amazing, it supports just about every cloud storage provider out there - could be Amazon S3 or backblaze, but it could also be OneDrive or Google drive. If you've got some cloud storage somewhere, restic will probably support it.

Restic is super clever, it takes snapshots and only backs up any data that has changed - so it's very space efficient and fast. I back up hourly, it only takes a few mins and if nothing has changed, there cost is also basically nothing. But you can pull back files from any snapshots you keep and when you delete a snapshot, it only deletes data that's not used by any snapshot.

This means you can have backups going back months or years at very little data cost. You can restore a full backup, or just a specific file if you need.

Seriously, restic is amazing and more people need to know about it.
