I think my position was clear. I don't see the point in rereiterating it whilst we are evidently not going to reach an agreement. Besides, you have previously complained that my explanations were unnecessarily long. But since you bring it up and to sum up, I find completely reasonable for FFmpeg to provision hardware with the feature necessary to test your work, such as AVX-512 and Vulkan video decoding. But: 1) You already have been provided such hardware in the form of a desktop computer (and I am told that it was extremely expensive). 2) In general it makes more sense to get a desktop than a laptop for that purpose. Leaving aside those specific hardware requirements, I think it is completely reasonable for you to have a laptop, as most of us probably do. But I also think that it is not reasonable for the foundation to pay for personal laptops. Maybe you need a laptop specifically to work on FFmpeg for whatever reason. Then a cheap laptop for remote access, as Michael suggested, sounds like a reasonable compromise to me. Nevertheless, I think that: - If your employment requires you to work away from your desktop a lot, then your employer should provide the laptop. - If you want to work from your couch or from the beach (figuratively), that is really on you. -- Rémi Denis-Courmont http://www.remlab.net/ _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
