I AM BEGGING YOU TO LEARN WHAT HARDWARE ACCELERATION IS. MOST OF THE TIME A WEBSITE IS GOING TO SAY "HEY DISPLAY THIS IMAGE" AND YOUR GPU GOES AND SAYS "YEAH THATS A GREAT IDEA, CPU GET ON THAT" AND SO IT GIVES THE CPU THE DATA TO WRITE THE IMAGE TO YOUR SCREEN. THIS IS THE SAME FUCKING PLACE THAT DISCORD PULLS FROM TO SHARE YOUR SCREEN WHEN YOU'RE IN VC WITH YOUR FRIENDS SO IF SOMETHING SUDDENLY MAKES IT SO THAT THE CPU DOES NOT HAVE THAT DATA, FOR INSTANCE IF YOU HAVE HARDWARE ACCELERATION ENABLED ON YOUR BROWSER WHICH LETS YOUR GPU WRITE DIRECTLY TO YOUR SCREEN INSTEAD OF HANDING THE TASK OFF TO YOUR CPU, WELL THEN DISCORD IS JUST GONNA COME UP EMPTY, ISN'T IT?

IT IS NOT A PLOY BY NETFLIX TO MAKE YOUR FRIENDS PAY FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD IT IS A LEGITIMATE FUNCTION BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE A CAPABLE PC AND THEY NEED TO SAVE CPU RESOURCES

I WORDED SOME OF THIS WRONG BUT IM JUST TIRED OF EXPLAINING WHAT HARDWARE ACCELERATION IS HOLY SHIT

Cancelled Missions: Testing Shuttle Manipulator Arms During Earth-Orbital Apollo Missions (1971-1972)

In this drawing by NASA engineer Caldwell Johnson, twin human-like Space Shuttle robot arms with human-like hands deploy from the Apollo Command and Service Module (CSM) Scientific Instrument Module (SIM) Bay to grip the derelict Skylab space station.

"Caldwell Johnson, co-holder with Maxime Faget of the Mercury space capsule patent, was chief of the Spacecraft Design Division at the NASA Manned Spacecraft Center (MSC) in Houston, Texas, when he proposed that astronauts test prototype Space Shuttle manipulator arms and end effectors during Apollo Command and Service Module (CSM) missions in Earth orbit. In a February 1971 memorandum to Faget, NASA MSC's director of Engineering and Development, Johnson described the manipulator test mission as a worthwhile alternative to the Earth survey, space rescue, and joint U.S./Soviet CSM missions then under study.

At the time Johnson proposed the Shuttle manipulator arm test, three of the original 10 planned Apollo lunar landing missions had been cancelled, the second Skylab space station (Skylab B) appeared increasingly unlikely to reach orbit, and the Space Shuttle had not yet been formally approved. NASA managers foresaw that the Apollo and Skylab mission cancellations would leave them with surplus Apollo spacecraft and Saturn rockets after the last mission to Skylab A. They sought low-cost Earth-orbital missions that would put the surplus hardware to good use and fill the multi-year gap in U.S. piloted missions expected to occur in the mid-to-late 1970s.

Johnson envisioned Shuttle manipulators capable of bending and gripping much as do human arms and hands, thus enabling them to hold onto virtually anything. He suggested that a pair of prototype arms be mounted in a CSM Scientific Instrument Module (SIM) Bay, and that the CSM "pretend to be a Shuttle" during rendezvous operations with the derelict Skylab space station.

The CSM's three-man crew could, he told Faget, use the manipulators to grip and move Skylab. They might also use them to demonstrate a space rescue, capture an 'errant satellite,' or remove film from SIM Bay cameras and pass it to the astronauts through a special airlock installed in place of the docking unit in the CSM's nose.

Faget enthusiastically received Johnson's proposal (he penned 'Yes! This is great' on his copy of the February 1971 memo). The proposal generated less enthusiasm elsewhere, however.

Undaunted, Johnson proposed in May 1972 that Shuttle manipulator hardware replace Earth resources instruments that had been dropped for lack of funds from the planned U.S.-Soviet Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) mission. President Richard Nixon had called on NASA to develop the Space Shuttle just four months before (January 1972). Johnson asked Faget for permission to perform 'a brief technical and programmatic feasibility study' of the concept, and Faget gave him permission to prepare a presentation for Aaron Cohen, manager of the newly created Space Shuttle Program Office at MSC.

In his June 1972 presentation to Cohen, Johnson declared that '[c]argo handling by manipulators is a key element of the Shuttle concept.' He noted that CSM-111, the spacecraft tagged for the ASTP mission, would have no SIM Bay in its drum-shaped Service Module (SM), and suggested that a single 28-foot-long Shuttle manipulator arm could be mounted near the Service Propulsion System (SPS) main engine in place of the lunar Apollo S-band high-gain antenna, which would not be required during Earth-orbital missions.

During ascent to orbit, the manipulator would ride folded beneath the CSM near the ASTP Docking Module (DM) within the streamlined Spacecraft Launch Adapter. During SPS burns, the astronauts would stabilize the manipulator so that acceleration would not damage it by commanding it to grip a handle installed on the SM near the base of the CSM's conical Command Module (CM).

Johnson had by this time mostly dropped the concept of an all-purpose human hand-like 'end effector' for the manipulator; he informed Cohen that the end effector design was 'undetermined.' The Shuttle manipulator demonstration would take place after CSM-111 had undocked from the Soviet Soyuz spacecraft and moved away to perform independent maneuvers and experiments.

The astronauts in the CSM would first use a TV camera mounted on the arm's wrist to inspect the CSM and DM, then would use the end effector to manipulate 'some device' on the DM. They would then command the end effector to grip a handle on the DM, undock the DM from the CSM, and use the manipulator to redock the DM to the CSM. Finally, they would undock the DM and repeatedly capture it with the manipulator.

Caldwell Johnson's depiction of a prototype Shuttle manipulator arm with a hand-like end effector. The manipulator grasps the Docking Module meant to link U.S. Apollo and Soviet Soyuz spacecraft in Earth orbit during the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) mission.

Johnson estimated that new hardware for the ASTP Shuttle manipulator demonstration would add 168 pounds (76.2 kilograms) to the CM and 553 pounds (250.8 kilograms) to the SM. He expected that concept studies and pre-design would be completed in January 1973. Detail design would commence in October 1972 and be completed by 1 July 1973, at which time CSM-111 would undergo modification for the manipulator demonstration.

Johnson envisioned that MSC would build two manipulators in house. The first, for testing and training, would be completed in January 1974. The flight unit would be completed in May 1974, tested and checked out by August 1974, and launched into orbit attached to CSM-111 in July 1975. Johnson optimistically placed the cost of the manipulator arm demonstration at just $25 million.

CSM-111, the last Apollo spacecraft to fly, reached Earth orbit on schedule on 15 July 1975. By then, Caldwell Johnson had retired from NASA. CSM-111 carried no manipulator arm; the tests Johnson had proposed had been judged to be unnecessary.

That same month, the U.S. space agency, short on funds, invited Canada to develop and build the Shuttle manipulator arm. The Remote Manipulator System — also called the Canadarm — first reached orbit on board the Space Shuttle Columbia during STS-2, the second flight of the Shuttle program, on 12 November 1981."

OneAPI Construction Kit For Intel RISC V Processor Interface

With the oneAPI Construction Kit, you may integrate the oneAPI Ecosystem into your Intel RISC V Processor.

Intel RISC-V

Recently, Codeplay, an Intel business, revealed that their oneAPI Construction Kit supports RISC-V. Rapidly expanding, Intel RISC V is an open standard instruction set architecture (ISA) available under royalty-free open-source licenses for processors of all kinds.

Through direct programming in C++ with SYCL, along with a set of libraries aimed at common functions like math, threading, and neural networks, and a hardware abstraction layer that allows programming in one language to target different devices, the oneAPI programming model enables a single codebase to be deployed across multiple computing architectures including CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and other accelerators.

In order to promote open source cooperation and the creation of a cohesive, cross-architecture programming paradigm free from proprietary software lock-in, the oneAPI standard is now overseen by the UXL Foundation.

A framework that may be used to expand the oneAPI ecosystem to bespoke AI and HPC architectures is Codeplay’s oneAPI Construction Kit. For both native on-host and cross-compilation, the most recent 4.0 version brings RISC-V native host for the first time.

Because of this capability, programs may be executed on a CPU and benefit from the acceleration that SYCL offers via data parallelism. With the oneAPI Construction Kit, Intel RISC V processor designers can now effortlessly connect SYCL and the oneAPI ecosystem with their hardware, marking a key step toward realizing the goal of a completely open hardware and software stack. It is completely free to use and open-source.

OneAPI Construction Kit

Your processor has access to an open environment with the oneAPI Construction Kit. It is a framework that opens up SYCL and other open standards to hardware platforms, and it can be used to expand the oneAPI ecosystem to include unique AI and HPC architectures.

Give Developers Access to a Dynamic, Open-Ecosystem

With the oneAPI Construction Kit, new and customized accelerators may benefit from the oneAPI ecosystem and an abundance of SYCL libraries. Contributors from many sectors of the industry support and maintain this open environment, so you may build with the knowledge that features and libraries will be preserved. Additionally, it frees up developers’ time to innovate more quickly by reducing the amount of time spent rewriting code and managing disparate codebases.

The oneAPI Construction Kit is useful for anybody who designs hardware. To get you started, the Kit includes a reference implementation for Intel RISC V vector processors, although it is not confined to RISC-V and may be modified for a variety of processors.

Codeplay Enhances the oneAPI Construction Kit with RISC-V Support

The rapidly expanding open standard instruction set architecture (ISA) known as RISC-V is compatible with all sorts of processors, including accelerators and CPUs. Axelera, Codasip, and others make Intel RISC V processors for a variety of applications. RISC-V-powered microprocessors are also being developed by the EU as part of the European Processor Initiative.

At Codeplay, has been long been pioneers in open ecosystems, and as a part of RISC-V International, its’ve worked on the project for a number of years, leading working groups that have helped to shape the standard. Nous realize that building a genuinely open environment starts with open, standards-based hardware. But in order to do that, must also need open hardware, open software, and open source from top to bottom.

This is where oneAPI and SYCL come in, offering an ecosystem of open-source, standards-based software libraries for applications of various kinds, such oneMKL or oneDNN, combined with a well-developed programming architecture. Both SYCL and oneAPI are heterogeneous, which means that you may create code once and use it on any GPU AMD, Intel, NVIDIA, or, as of late, RISC-V without being restricted by the manufacturer.

Intel initially implemented RISC-V native host for both native on-host and cross-compilation with the most recent 4.0 version of the oneAPI Construction Kit. Because of this capability, programs may be executed on a CPU and benefit from the acceleration that SYCL offers via data parallelism. With the oneAPI Construction Kit, Intel RISC V processor designers can now effortlessly connect SYCL and the oneAPI ecosystem with their hardware, marking a major step toward realizing the vision of a completely open hardware and software stack.

If you ever had pastries at breakfast, drank soy milk, used soaps at home, or built yourself a nice flat-pack piece of furniture, you may have contributed to deforestation and climate change.

Every item has a price—but the cost isn’t felt only in our pockets. Hidden in that price is a complex chain of production, encompassing economic, social, and environmental relations that sustain livelihoods and, unfortunately, contribute to habitat destruction, deforestation, and the warming of our planet.

Approximately 4 billion hectares of forest around the world act as a carbon sink which, over the past two decades, has annually absorbed a net 7.6 billion metric tons of CO2. That’s the equivalent of 1.5 times the annual emissions of the US.

Conversely, a cleared forest becomes a carbon source. Many factors lead to forest clearing, but the root cause is economic. Farmers cut down the forest to expand their farms, support cattle grazing, harvest timber, mine minerals, and build infrastructure such as roads. Until that economic pressure goes away, the clearing may continue.

In 2024, however, we are going to see a big boost to global efforts to fight deforestation. New EU legislation will make it illegal to sell or export a range of commodities if they have been produced on deforested land. Sellers will need to identify exactly where their product originates, down to the geolocation of the plot. Penalties are harsh, including bans and fines of up to 4 percent of the offender's annual EU-wide turnover. As such, industry pushback has been strong, claiming that the costs are too high or the requirements are too onerous. Like many global frameworks, this initiative is being led by the EU, with other countries sure to follow, as the so-called Brussels Effect pressures ever more jurisdictions to adopt its methods.

The impact of these measures will only be as strong as the enforcement and, in 2024, we will see new ways of doing that digitally. At Farmerline (which I cofounded), for instance, we have been working on supply chain traceability for over a decade. We incentivize rule-following by making it beneficial.

When we digitize farmers and allow them and other stakeholders to track their products from soil to shelf, they also gain access to a suite of other products: the latest, most sustainable farming practices in their own language, access to flexible financing to fund climate-smart products such as drought-resistant seeds, solar irrigation systems and organic fertilizers, and the ability to earn more through international commodity markets.

Digitization helps build resilience and lasting wealth for the smallholders and helps save the environment. Another example is the World Economic Forum’s OneMap—an open-source privacy-preserving digital tool which helps governments use geospatial and farmer data to improve planning and decision making in agriculture and land. In India, the Data Empowerment Protection Architecture also provides a secure consent-based data-sharing framework to accelerate global financial inclusion.

In 2024 we will also see more food companies and food certification bodies leverage digital payment tools, like mobile money, to ensure farmers’ pay is not only direct and transparent, but also better if they comply with deforestation regulations.

The fight against deforestation will also be made easier by developments in hardware technology. New, lightweight drones from startups such as AirSeed can plant seeds, while further up, mini-satellites, such as those from Planet Labs, are taking millions of images per week, allowing governments and NGOs to track areas being deforested in near-real time. In Rwanda, researchers are using AI and the aerial footage captured by Planet Labs to calculate, monitor, and estimate the carbon stock of the entire country.

With these advances in software and hard-tech, in 2024, the global fight against deforestation will finally start to grow new shoots.

How to enable Hardware acceleration in Firefox ESR

For reference, my computer has intel integrated graphics, and my operating system is Debian 12 Bookworm with VA-API for graphics. While I had hardware video acceleration enabled for many application, I had to spend some time last year trying to figure out out how to enable it for Firefox. While I found this article and followed it, I couldn't figure out at first how to use the environment variable. So here's a guide now for anyone new to Linux!

First, determine whether you are using the Wayland or X11 protocol Windowing system if you haven't already. In a terminal, enter:

echo "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE"

This will tell you which Windowing system you are using. Once you've followed the instructions in the article linked, edit (as root or with root privileges) /usr/share/applications/firefox-esr.desktop with your favorite text-editing software. I like to use nano! So for example, you would enter in a terminal:

sudo nano /usr/share/applications/firefox-esr.desktop

Then, navigate to the line that says "Exec=...". Replace that line with the following line, depending on whether you use Wayland or X11. If you use Wayland:

Exec=env MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 firefox

If you use X11:

Exec=env MOZ_X11_EGL=1 firefox

Then save the file! If you are using the nano editor, press Ctrl+x, then press Y and then press enter! Restart Firefox ESR if you were already on it, and it should now work! Enjoy!

From Coding to Creation: Java's Versatile Influence

Java, often described as the "king of programming languages," stands as a monumental force that has significantly influenced the trajectory of modern software development. For over two decades, Java has proven its versatile, powerful, and dependable programming language, underpinning a vast array of applications, platforms, and systems that permeate our digital landscape. In this comprehensive exploration, we will embark on a journey to unravel the essence of Java, delving deep into what makes it indispensable and why it continues to be the preferred choice for programmers across diverse domains.

What is Java?

At its core, Java is a high-level, object-oriented, and platform-independent programming language that defies the conventional limitations of traditional coding. Conceived in the mid-1990s through the visionary efforts of James Gosling and his adept team at Sun Microsystems (now seamlessly integrated into Oracle Corporation), Java introduced a revolutionary concept that continues to define its identity: "Write Once, Run Anywhere." This groundbreaking principle signifies that Java applications exhibit a remarkable adaptability, capable of executing seamlessly on various platforms, provided a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) stands ready to facilitate their execution. This single feature alone positions Java as an unparalleled workhorse, transcending the boundaries of operating systems and hardware, and ushering in an era of software portability and compatibility.

Key Features of Java:

Platform Independence: Java's unparalleled platform independence is the cornerstone of its success. Code authored in Java is liberated from the confines of a single operating system, enabling it to traverse across a plethora of platforms without requiring any cumbersome modifications. This inherent portability not only obliterates compatibility concerns but also streamlines software deployment, eliminating the need for platform-specific versions.

Object-Oriented Paradigm: Java's steadfast adherence to the object-oriented programming (OOP) paradigm cultivates a development environment characterized by modularity and maintainability. By encapsulating code into discrete objects, Java empowers developers to construct intricate systems with greater efficiency and ease of management, a quality particularly favored in large-scale projects.

Rich Standard Library: The Java Standard Library stands as a testament to the language's comprehensiveness. It comprises a vast repository of pre-built classes and methods that cater to a wide spectrum of programming tasks. This comprehensive library significantly reduces development overhead by offering readily available tools for commonplace operations, bestowing developers with the invaluable gift of time.

Security: In an era marred by cyber threats and vulnerabilities, Java emerges as a paragon of security-conscious design. It incorporates robust security features, including a sandbox environment for executing untrusted code. Consequently, Java has become the de facto choice for building secure applications, particularly in industries where data integrity and user privacy are paramount.

Community Support: The strength of Java's thriving developer community is an asset of immeasurable value. This vast and active network ensures that developers are never left wanting for resources, libraries, or frameworks. It provides a dynamic support system where knowledge sharing and collaborative problem-solving flourish, accelerating project development and troubleshooting.

Scalability: Java is not confined by the scale of a project. It gracefully adapts to the demands of both modest applications and sprawling enterprise-level systems. Its versatility ensures that as your project grows, Java will remain a steadfast companion, capable of meeting your evolving requirements.

Performance: Java's Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler serves as the vanguard of its performance capabilities. By dynamically optimizing code execution, Java ensures that applications not only run efficiently but also deliver exceptional user experiences. This, coupled with the ability to harness the power of modern hardware, makes Java a preferred choice for performance-critical applications.

Multithreading: Java's built-in support for multithreading equips applications to execute multiple tasks concurrently. This not only enhances responsiveness but also elevates the overall performance of applications, particularly those designed for tasks that demand parallel processing.

Java is not merely a programming language; it represents a dynamic ecosystem that empowers developers to fashion an extensive array of applications, ranging from mobile apps and web services to enterprise-grade software solutions. Its hallmark feature of platform independence, complemented by its rich libraries, security fortifications, and the formidable backing of a robust developer community, collectively underpin its enduring popularity.

Hi, your blog is the first I could find when searching tumblr for OBS (the screen capture program) so I hope it's alright if I ask for some help with OBS?

In short, for some reason whenever I just boot up OBS to record something, the recording comes out horrendously framey. Im talking seconds per frame. After an hour of recording junk footage however it manages to record smoothly? Having to record an hour of junk for good quality video is both a waste of time and computer space (plus a friend of mine said she never had this issue back when she used it herself), so like... do you have any idea what could be going on? How to fix this? As someone who uses it regularly for streams I imagine you've done your fair share of troubleshooting, but even if you don't know (or choose to not answer), I thank you for your time. 👍

I'd be more than happy to help! I'm not sure what you're trying to record or what your video and encoding settings are set to but here are some tips regarding framerate and stuttering issues:

If you're recording a game, try turning off VSYNC.

Check your encoding settings - I'm unsure of your specs and internet speeds so you will likely need to check this for yourself but if you google encoding settings there are tonnes of good guides on them!

Switch encoding to GPU vs CPU or vice versa

 Open OBS -> Settings -> Advanced -> Sources -> Uncheck 'Enable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration' then restart OBS.

Run OBS as administrator.

If none of the above help at all please let me know and if you're able to provide your PC specs and what you're recording that will help a tonne with troubleshooting!

90k notes post completely misrepresenting why screenshotting or re-streaming Netflix doesn't work. It's not just the hardware acceleration, it's DRM. if you take this post at face value it would follow that you're unable to screenshot pretty much any video game bc your GPU is involved which is obviously fucking wrong.

in the case of Netflix & co without hardware acceleration the CPU has the job of decrypting the DRM'ed video stream which makes it a) screenshotable and b) will significantly reduce quality since decrypting 1080p upwards with a CPU is too resource-intensive. With hardware acceleration (and assuming that every piece of hardware in the chain supports HDCP) the stream will remain encrypted and is passed to the display this way and therefore your OS can't take a screenshot of the content. But once again this is only the case if there's even any DRM used. For example YouTube doesn't use HDCP (so you can take screenshots with hardware acceleration enabled) so the only thing you'd achieve when you disable hardware acceleration in this case is kneecapping your PC's performance. you're just making everything more inefficient, good job!

I mean, if your goal is capturing shit from Netflix then turning off hardware acceleration does work so regarding that the post is correct, but the explanation is shit and the implications of doing that are not explained at all (which is always fun if you offer solutions with unintended consequences to a non-tech-savvy audience).

guess who just used 746% of their cpu to convert a video file without enabling hardware acceleration. and survived
