Oh and HDMI prevents open source GPU drivers supporting HDMI 2.1 natively.

It looks like you're actually using Pipewire, so you'll want to look at the documentation / bug tracker for that instead.

The fact that you can run out of fediverse content. After 2 hours on Lemmy, I have functionally read all of Lemmy

I'll add that if you are running out of things to read you can instead post content you want to discuss. I've found that much of the time there are people waiting to jump in and comment, they just aren't in the habit of making posts. Which you didn't need to do on other sites because there were always enough people posting content. And it's less likely to leave you doom scrolling since it's a good opportunity to stop since comments won't come in immediately.

Ledger/hledger may be an option if you're command line inclined although more local only then self-hosted per-se.

And bring first class Linux support along with it, since the options there are pretty sparse, although getting better with the Monado project in particular.

I'm not sure why the article doesn't mention this anywhere, but the legislation is concerning Australia, which currently has zero fuel efficiency standards.

Because of the lack of a standard, Australia is currently a dumping ground for inefficient trash that other countries won't take, and ICE car companies don't want to lose that. Electric vehicle makers prefer the regulation because it puts them on a more equal footing.

Yes, many of these ICE companies are transitioning away from fossil fuels, but they are being dragged kicking and screaming, and any delay in legislation means they can continue to profit from these outdated cars a bit longer while they catch up on electric cars. Pretty much the same type of delay tactics that the fossil fuel industry is pushing across the board.

Here's a better article: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/mar/08/polestar-quits-australian-auto-lobby-fcai-vehicle-efficiency-standards

Oh and I can’t get windows subsystem for Linux to work in my windows VM on my Linux machine.

You need nested virtualization since it's a VM within a VM. It's supported by KVM/libvirt but may need additional config. I believe virtualbox now supports it too, but that it's a bit undercooked.

or running multiple monitors with different high refresh rates and freesync simultaneously are still rocky.

Not really an issue anymore with most Wayland compositors (KDE and wlroots, soon to be fixed with Gnome). That's mainly an X11 specific problem.

Maybe just buy a monitor, particularly if you only need streaming.

Yeah it's fine, especially with recent codecs like AV1 and you'd expect future codecs to improve further.

Try jellyfin-mpv-shim. It directly uses mpv (either a built in version or even your system mpv) and if it doesn't play well there, it's likely not going to play well anywhere.
