I believe APNIC requires you to be a registered company unlike RIPE who will allow individuals as customers, but the flip side is that becoming a company in Australia is quite easy paperwork, unlike in Germany where you have to put up a $25000 bond.
Edit: APNIC also wants you to provide some plans for your network upfront while RIPE NCC is more willing to just assume good faith. But their requirements do not seem onerous, and you are not held to the plans, it's just to check you have a need for the resources.
Registering a company in Australia is virtually free. APNIC fees, on the other hand, are much higher than what you'd pay with RIPE. It's pretty hard to justify a minimum of $1300 a year + a $500 sign-up fee just to have a personal ASN that you don't need unless you want to run a full table.
Not really. Have to be in the region and have an accepted requirement for PI space (dual homing is accepted). If you want a second /24, you need to have a plan to use it within a year. If you need more space, good luck have fun.
(You're expected to do the same qualification for transferring addresses too)
My 10 year old iPhone 7 can play 1080p AV1 video in software for more than 200 minutes with VLC. The iPhone 7 was released a year and a half before AV1 was.
So I think it's a safe bet the current Apple TV devices are capable of playing AV1 video in software. There's a VLC release for Apple TV:
Not especially relevant, as the obvious use of AV1 on the AppleTV is streaming, and the OS frameworks don't request AV1 without hardware decoding. Services which provide their own video decoding (are there any?) don't seem interested providing their own software decoder for the ATV, despite the bandwidth savings.
I will absolutely host one of these servers.. I used to be the admin of Sphereservers 15+ years ago and I've lost all of my scripts, and world files... and graphics.
But I would love to play some old school UO again with people
First mention of Sphere server I have seen in the wild in quite some time. I too had a lot of custom scripts for my instance that I have lost. Sphere server is what finally got me to learn how to script.
Quick question: even if this is/was true, do you think isolating him is the correct response? or maybe engaging and taking some of the pressure off him might actually help.
People love to bully people who slip up... dudes a hot mess but I think he needs community more than being openly attacked.
In my honest opinion, I think the correct response is to stop using anything that dansup makes until he realizes he has to give up some of the control, or the project stops being developed.
While it's nice if people want to help take some pressure off, it only works if the main developer (dansup in this case) is willing to accept that help. And based off the link I gave, and some of the comments here, it doesn't look like dansup is willing to accept help.
This project would love some additional support. If you're a developer who is interested in building this... please get in touch with them, the team is VERY small so you can do some good by just supporting them.
No disrespect to the project, but it is a bit hard to find motivation to contribute to something that will most likely end up being used by like 100 people who'll all just post videos about how they're better than Tiktok users
