Doctor Who’s groundbreaking Bridgerton episode 'Rogue' finally gives us the queer love story fans deserve
  • The difference this time is that the Doctor's queerness isn't just a side note. It's central to the story now, undeniable in ways that bigots watching back home can no longer refute, no matter how much they might try.

    That's the guts of the article, since it acknowledges this has been in place since Russel T Davies' first season as lead writer in the mid 2000s. The part I liked about it is the classic sci-fi method of making it seem absurd to the main characters that the people in the past would think this is scandalous. Other than that it was an all-round good episode with a fun story.

  • Why are camera taken videos at the same resolution way bigger than ones ripped from youtube?
  • Here's the FFmpeg documentation for x264, an open source h.264 encoder: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/H.264

    So the encoding strategy is tunable for an encoder, but also there are different implementations that might perform differently. They all produce a h.264 video stream that's decodable by any standard player.

  • I hope in the future we don't have to clean so many things
  • Hi, and welcome to the future. San Dimas, California, 2688. And I'm telling you, everything is great. The air is clean, the water is clean. Even the dirt... is clean!

  • I built a fightstick!
  • Looks great! I built a controller recently too, just wanted to mention that I used the open source GP2040-CE on a Raspberry Pi Pico and it works great, it involved a bit of soldering wires with different connectors together, but there are now custom RP2040 controller boards that can run it and are plug-and-play.

  • Alternate ways of playing games
  • I tried to play Ultra Sun using only my starter Rowlet, and had to put it down when the game forced me into a double battle. I would have been okay with hatching a second Rowlet from an egg but it didn't work.

  • NOR getting a favored pitstop call might have compromised PIA’s race. There will be questions asked and let’s hope we get good answers.

    I was angry when it happened, but seeing PIA's pace afterwards, it was an okay decision. If they weren't teammates NOR would have got past him eventually with the powerful DRS, and if they didn't do the undercut they would have had to do an on-track swap to avoid both drivers losing time.

  • I don't think anyone broke the rules of this race given the lack of specific investigations against drivers, but I heard on the commentary that there was going to be a general investigation?

    In the past we've had minimum sector times at the end of the lap, which in this case world have presumably forced Russell out to start his final lap a little sooner.
