Some day it will make it’s way to banking apps/sites being unusable on OSes other than approved “secure” ones.
That day was years ago. Many banking apps refuse to start if you even just have your bootloader unlocked, and some banking websites only support Chrome, some really crappy ones even only Chrome or Edge on Windows specifically.
This myth that ARM is more efficient needs to die already. The ISA has almost no impact on efficiency, and especially no impact on gaming, where the GPU is the much more important thing.
Yes, there’s an addon for Firefox that gives you Netflix 1080p without any downsides, probably just by changing the user agent for Netflix.
Really shows how utterly useless the restrictions are.
It hasn’t operated at a loss anymore for years you mean?
What kind of flickering? Does the display support adaptive sync? If so, try turning that off
I understand that it’s an absolute brightness standard, not like the relative levels in SDR
The standard is also relative brightness actually, though displays (luckily) don’t implement it that way.
why does it end up washing out colors unless I amplify them in kwin? Is just the brightness absolute in nits, but not the color?
It depends. You might
Why does my screen block the brightness control in HDR mode but not contrast?
Because displays are stupid, don’t assume there’s always a logical reason behind what display manufacturers do. Mine only blocks the brightness setting through DDC/CI, but not through the monitor OSD…
Why is my average emission capped at 270nits, that seems ridiculously low even for normal SDR screens as comparison
OLED simply gets very hot when you make it bright over the whole area, the display technology is inherently limited when it comes to high brightness on big displays
The real question is though… if you haven’t noticed the TV using YCbCr420 until it was pointed out to you, why would you spend more time looking into it?
