I verified it with Grok, it says the same thing
If you think this is proof of it being true, then I am both worried and astonished. How about looking for the information yourself, instead of relying on LLMs? This is HN I thought?!

I frequently see comments that say the TV companies are the ones getting the royalties, so I looked it up.
According to Gemini, the royalties go to the _original_ HDMI founders. That includes Sony, Panasonic, Philips, and Toshiba. It does not include Samsung, or LG.
Is there a non-LLM source for that?
Going by your past comments, you're a great example of a russian troll.

And I personally hope it won't. Seeing how things are going, I have no interest for my country to become a small province of the EU to be managed by some bureaucrats in Brussels who have never set foot in it.
Sharing intel and and resources why not? Becoming a vassal state of an EU federation no thanks.
The world is going back to zones of influence, and little fish will be eaten by big fishes. I'd rather that the big fish be the EU than Russia, even if it means giving up some national rights.

The problem is , there are very few Europeans or EUans. There are French and Germans and Spanish etc; they all want their country first and sure open markets but their country first. That is how they vote (certainly these days). Most people do not feel EU unfortunately. Language is one thing: it is getting better but having language not unified (English, Spanish, Mandarin; pick one) is a massive and real issue keeping people's minds and efforts local instead of, at least EU wide. It is slowly getting better but the EU should made easier accessible and far higher funds for pan EU projects. Currently it is a serious pain to get access to EU funds and many just get eaten by the few massive consultancy corps who have dedicated teams going for any funding and tender in any locality and language.
Well written. I hope one day the united states of europe is a real political entity, burying the stupidity that is fragmented national interests.

>The word "fascist" now has positive connotations for me
Spoken like somebody who never had to endure real fascism.
>I realise a lot of you will want to call me fascist for this comment, or more likely something a bit snider and less direct. Just know that I genuinely don't care. It's just a word now.
No, you may not be a fascist, but it's opinions like yours that helped make it possible. Mitläufer.

When the solution you pick inevitably has downtime too you’re in the same boat.
DDoS mitigation is one of those areas that an on-prem solution just isn’t well suited to solve.
Yeah, but people aren't using Cloudflare just for DDOS Mitigation. Some are running pretty much everything over it, from DNS to edge caching to load balancing and even hosting. That's what I oppose mainly.

You realize these are two different companies right? If you’re saying “I’m an AWS customer with cloudflare in front” I think you’ve failed to realize that two 99.9% available services in series have a combined availability of ~99.8% - that’s just math.
Your physical servers should have similar issues if you put a CDN in front unless the physical server is able to achieve a 100% uptime (100% * 3 9s = 3 9s). Or you don’t have a CDN but can be trivially knocked offline by the tiniest botnet (or even hitting hacker news front page)
I do. But I put both into the "cloud offering off-prem for very much money" shoebox. I setup a CDN once using VPS from different hosting providers for under 100 USD a month, which I would vastly prefer over trusting anything cloud.
And yes, I know that there's sites that need the scale of an operation like Cloudflare or AWS. But 99.9(...)% of pages don't, and people should start realizing that.

The problem is the people that sign our checks usually aren't technical, rational people.
The system isn't designed for technical, rational decision making.
That's fair, yeah, and I agree it's not always feasible - but if you have any influence over technical direction at your org, I encourage what I wrote above. Otherwise yeah, let the pea counters in the C-Levels dig their own grave.
