The image shows a screenshot of a Japanese-English dictionary entry for the term "いちまいいわ" (いちまいいわ), which translates to "one rock" in English. The entry is from Jitendex.org, dated August 1, 2025. The term is defined as a noun with two main meanings: 1) a monolith, which is a large slab of rock, and 2) unity of a group, organization, etc., including concepts like unanimity and solidarity. The dictionary entry is presented in a clean, white background with a blue sidebar on the left, and the JMdict logo is visible in the bottom right corner. The layout is simple and organized, with the term and its definitions clearly listed.

I like a bit of forensic journalism, so here's Emma Monks' takedown of the attacks on Angela Rayner in the right wing press... its a story that is driven by misogyny & classism, and as Monk's clearly demonstrates is based on iinsinuation & a wilful misrepresentation of what actually happened with Rayner's purchase of a flat in Hove.
The problem is that the general readership of the right wing rags, will always default to 'there's no smoke without fire'...

Would it be realistic to use x264 as the codec of choice for Jellyfin for the next few years?
I happened to receive two Quadro K4000 3GB cards, which I've read are capable of handling at least 5x 1080p60 streams. Those old cards can't do anything newer though (not even x265 or VP9). Not sure if I want to use them in a family server for media transcoding or a "retro" gaming rig. 🤔

(7 users is a legal limit due to some german law once mentioning in a lawsuit that "7 users can be regarded as sensible number of family and friends you'd share your movie collection with". Ever since then it's the de-facto save number)
you mean H.264? IIRC x264 is a CPU implementation of a H.264 encoder. I'd say yeah, it should be a reasonably safe choice. It's almost ridiculously popular and upgrade cycles are often enough slow to span years to guarantee it some lifetime.
Unless, well, a major breakthrough in video encoding happens in the meantime, but that's always a looming threat I guess.

Rinfrescante.
I wonder what press coverage it will get. I voted for Polanski and am hoping he can cut through the endless coverage of Farage.
