Hello guys, I'm curious about this meme, is there some literature where I can find someguides to test this? Thanks.
You wouldn't pay for 4k Netflix and then download a Chromebook recovery image in order to extract the aarch64 widevine com blobs and then patch in support for 16k pages and then apply miscellaneous glibc compat workarounds and then spoof your useragent, and install a browser extension to unlock HD resolutions, to legally watch media in only 1080p
Dear, OP
Kindly go fuck thine self.
Yours truly, This dyslexic idiot.
You might have already figured it out, but it says
Also I don't think OP made the meme, I think they're just wanting to know more (as am I). Like, what's the drama? Why'd someone make the meme? It implies Netflix only lets you watch things in 1080p on a PC if you apply a bunch of workarounds (presumably to make the site think you're a TV or something).
They limit the resolution on linux and even getting 1080p as a paying customer is very hard.
They also limit it on other platforms, if you use anything other than ~~Internet Explorer~~ Edge. Since Microsofts browser is the only one to include the Silverlight DRM plugin.
Wtf, hadn’t heard of that
It's a blog post on how to get Netflix and Spotify to work on Asahi Linux, the project to run Linux on new "M" chipsets 64bits Arm apple computers. Their solution (and widevine hack) is now integrated in the Fedora Linux Asahi Remix project' default distro. You still have to do the user agent mod tho.
Thanks I will check it out!
It all works quite smoothly ; the install process is a breeze of a single .sh script to run directly from macos. The amount of software available for Arm64 is surprising, tho gamers will be disappointed there's no Vulkan / Steam available yet.
That "Default" install is really just Fedora, shipped with KDE for it's superior handling of fractional scaling. There's the dnf package manager, flatpaks, the works.
I'm 80~90% of the time on the Asahi side of things on my device. Showstoppers today are sleep battery drain (50% a day) and pure "ooomph" - performance of an M2Pro chip is more akin to a 12th gen i7 than the same chip under macos. Rendering in kdenlive or blender is noticeably slower on Asahi. But it's a huge reverse-engineering undertaking, and it will be getting better.
Thank you for sharing this information.
I understood more than half of that. I feel so smart.
You are correct I didn't make the meme, I'm looking for the technical background .
I'm really glad to see that text transcriptions of image posts are much more common here than on other sites, but clearly still not common enough.
Hey Sabee363, I didn't make the meme. I'm diging into this technologies because im paying for my grandma and last night I started remembering this topic, I'mhighly addictive to low level technology and I like to play with systems.
Partner, sorry if I don't transcribed. Have a nice day/evening/night.

Your totally fine, I was mostly poking fun at how much of a nightmare things like this can be to read. I was probably a bit heavy handed with my comment though, sorry. Might've also been stoned and forgot to finish what I was trying to say, lol.
No problem my friend, I will count on this for the next time. Thanks for making me notice.
I'm pretty sure the point of the meme is to be visual vomit just to demonstrate how fucking elaborate and confusing it is
