In a light computer environment, some of these dark scenes do better with a 1-stop exposure boost (applied here via hdrfix with `--exposure=1 --tone-map=linear`)

the irksome thing is that VLC always saves out an 8-bit color depth PNG, so it loses some color depth from the 10-bit original, _before_ the colorspace conversion and tone-mapping.
;_;
still look nice once color-corrected tho

hm, i wonder if there's a way to convince VLC to save snapshots of high color depth sources as 16-bit PNGs instead of 8-bit PNGs
would be easy to update hdrfix to read them...
...but i haven't the slightest idea if that's something that's trivial to change in VLC or Really Hard :D
so that's a thing to explore for later maybe, i'm too swamped this month to dive into VLC source for funsies :D

holy crap they're making some tv show blu-rays in 4k uhd now
fallout (season 1 is out, season 2 can be pre-oredered) and mandalorian for starters

so this star trek movie blu-ray set is laid out nicely on-disc.
the disc title is clean and legible, there's no weird duplicate entries that point to the same stream, and the movie comes at the front followed by the special features
it's like they were being considerate to rippers ;)

Ran the numbers on estimated re-encoding times based on the codec breakdown, targeting settings for about a real-time encode on my 16-core rig for HD.
870 total hours of material
6.3 TB of input data
savings ratio very variable
~650 hours of estimated encode time (27 days non-stop)opportunity cost of having background shit running for a month versus buying a new drive: dunno ;)

there would also be an electricity cost to running a 27-day batch encode, which i estimate at $15 ;)
which i guess is cheaper than a drive, by itself ;)

hmm, I wonder how far VLC on Linux is from being able to display HDR video as actual HDR
At least under Wayland, my GNOME desktop has a big "HDR" switch on the Displays settings, and I can see it switches me to HDR *mode* and gives me a big brightness slider for the SDR windows (everything) but nothing I've seen yet shows me anything in HDR. ;)

Starting on the Star Trek TOS HD remaster blu-rays
If I'm reading this metadata correctly, they have cleverly used Blu-ray's ability to seamlessly stitch streams together to avoid actually duplicating the *non-effects* portions of the episodes between the original & redone-effects versions of the shows!
however the rip will end up duplicating the common portions into two separate .mkv files :)

Porting MS-DOS 2.0 to the Apple IIe
Although the Apple II range of computers were based around the 6502 processor, they could still run x86 software using expansion cards that were effectively self-contained computers. This way an Apple IIe owner, for example, could install an Intel 8088-based AD8088 co-processor card by ALF Products and run CP/M-86 as well as MS-DOS. Unfortunately, as [Seth Kushniryk] discovered while digging into this MS-DOS option, there don’t seem to be any remaining copies of the accompanying MS-DOS 2.0 software.
The obvious response to this is of course to try and port it once again, which [Seth] did. So far he got it to boot, though it’s not quite ready for prime-time yet. Although the AD8088 card is fairly self-contained, it still has to talk with the Apple IIe system, which poses some challenges. To help with the porting he’s using the MS-DOS 2.0 OEM Adaptation Kit that was released along with the sources a while back.
The Apple II has to first load the basic MS-DOS files into the 8088’s RAM before handing over control, which works now along with the basic functionality. Before [Seth] releases the port to the public he still wants to fix a number of issues, in particular the clock. ProDOS on the Apple IIe encodes the year differently than MS-DOS, so that the latter’s clock is off by a few years, and the console driver is still not quite as robust as [Seth] would like it to be.
Beyond this there is also working with the other cards in the Apple II2 system, including the Super Serial Card, and working with the ProDOS filesystem.

@box464@mastodon.social welp, that was fast

@evan oh that's awful - I'm so sorry.
It's so important to have the soles of your shoes out on the pavement of your streets. You live among neighbours that way. And should never lose one of your community THIS way. 😩
