@TheFuzzStone I just don't understand why people drink that Kool Aid.

@Twelve @matt I do this with Carbonara. You get a massive range in quality and effort.

@progo If it's for then getting rid of them I'd be tempted to just ISO them.Or to save a little space, use MakeMKV to remux them into mkv without unwanted menus etc.Way quicker than transcoding, and lossless.The one drawback is this takes more space than transcoding and compressing the video.

@progo Ah yeah then in that case I guess I'd go x264 with AC-3 audio maybe.I only use one video player now that does everything, but when I was trying to use Consoles, tablets etc I always ended up going back to plex. There's always one f****ing device that doesn't play whatever format you need it to. But most devices tend to have plex.

@Bishop I get your point but in my experience the police are always too late to the scene.

@Bishop Well perhaps I mistook what you said, but I figured that by mentioning the police and defending yourself in the same message you were drawing some sort of parallel between the two.But yeah if recent events have shown us it's that the police force, or at least large parts of it, is a huge money hole. As ever NA has tracked the rise of police militarisation in the US since I've been listening.

@stephaniewalter Their ever expanding 'goal' troubles me.You've surely seen it:98 out of 100 have signed!Then 10 minutes later103 out of 150 have signed!I do not think 'gamifying' is appropriate, when people are quite often looking for very serious support on very real issues.

@keyoxide Is it possible to use profile metadata in pleroma rather than putting the fingerprint in the bio?

@stux Worth a watch for the lesser-seen Downing Street knock-and-run.

@matt @christoffer You can also bet on "Man United won't win", giving you only 2 options to pick from.There is a 100% chance of winning this bet too.

@keyoxide Possibly dumb question - is it possible to verify other gpg keys with my 'main' one?

@angristan Ended up with zerotier because the tailscale pricing, funnily enough, doesn't scale.The whole concept is brilliant though.

@Jdogg247 So the price of a Tesla will always be the same in BTC day to day? If it isn't then it's linked to fiat currency anyway
