Not an Expert in consumer hdr. What you want to calibrate isn’t contrast or brightness but gamma curve.

The fader article

So this is like an adblocker for irrelevant ingame stuff? Or is it a hack that disadvantages other players?

I was of the impression that the ia doesn’t delete, but instead puts files in quarantine until copyright runs out. Else they’d have to digitize it again later.

As much as cowboy bebop felt unnecessary, i totally dig one piece. Maybe it’s because netflix got all the german voice actors from the anime.

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

Let me pinshit about “adhoc”, a latin word which most people think of as meaning something like “spontaneous”. That’s wrong! Ad (to) hoc (this) means “in this regard”. If someone asks you a specific question, you could answer “adhoc i have no idea” or “i don’t know anything adhoc”. There’s no such thing as “adhoc work”.

Youtube’s quality isn’t as bad as it’s used to be, in fact you can get pretty high quality aac and opus streams given that the upload had legit quality and your using legit software to download and not some shitty webapp.

From the YouTube Help section on “Encoding specifications for music videos”:

Although it is not recommended, YouTube accepts compressed audio. YouTube transcodes from the delivered format; audio quality is much better when transcoded from a lossless format compared to re-compressing a lossy audio format.

If you must deliver compressed audio, use these specifications:

Codec: AAC-LC
Sample Rate: 44.1Khz
Bit Rate: 320kbps or higher for 2 channels (higher is always better; 256 kbps acceptable)
Channels: 2 (stereo)

I won’ rant over youtube’s inferior sound quality, but please tag or mark your finished files as youtube sourced, at least if there’s any possibility you further share them.

Best tipp i ever got in this regard was putting a cup of crushed charcoal in the fridge. Absorbs odors for years.

75$/year subscribtion model for a graphical user interface… In contrast Total Commander for life costs 39€ + tax.

It’s still a godsend for large comic book archives. Thx comicrack for supporting this wicked new format since August 2013!

edit: there’s also a relatively new plugin for avif and jpegxl support.
