@npub1gnx…d5kh I don't know about Handbrake. But 422 means full luma resolution and 22 means half chroma resolution both vertically and horizontally. 444 means raw video resolution (no consumer video camera does this).

@npub1gnx…d5kh I maintain the impression that this 1-10 classification is useless without a face chart like in that one scene in Scrubs to match the smiley face with the patient's face.
9 for me is how I would imagine the worst torture that I could imagine if I would imagine it. 10 is reserved for possibility of a pain stronger than I can imagine. Because I know my imagination to not be too good.

@npub14f7…eqrq It often takes energy, though, to stay friends when you disagree on something fundamental, something you find important for your life, society or species.

@npub1gnx…d5kh How do you do CW without marking the image as sensitive?

@npub1gnx…d5kh With FOSS, the People own the libs. Everybody, including libertarians, I guess.

@npub1gnx…d5kh The Pre was the one with the small, almost square display, right? I had that, too. And I miss it, too, when I think of it. (Typing this on a Titan Pocket, which I guess is the closest of the almost current phones.)

@npub13le…6saf I've never heard of SyQuest. Are they hard disk cartridges?

I don't think it's okay for a man page to say "This is just a short summary. For the actual manual, visit this web page."
What if I need to use an obscure combination of command line options with tar _after_ the apocalypse?

Ludwugsburg is one of few German cities where #MLP #ponies are a common site among stickers on sign posts. It used to be more. But there are still a few left on the route between the train station and the Forum. I still have to think of #GalaCon every time I'm here and of Ludwigsburg when I'm at GalaCon.

@npub16nf…q6as I don't know who that is. But interestingly, the moment I saw the picture I thought of that one "spiritual science" babbler whose name I don't remember.
But I would like to disagree with your statement anyway. Reputable panel discussion, good TED talks and interviews with scientists can produce the same appearance.
For some reason I think his shirt has something to do with my prejudgment.

@npub1adx…a3vj I have this alias already. But I don't tolerate people looking over my shoulder. So nobody laughs.
