Well lady, too bad, you have a conflict of interest with the news writers. What you care about is the news, what they care about is how much traffic they get.
Tolkien's essay On Fairy-stories describes specific theory and concept about the role in life of fantasy fiction, myth, etc., which includes positive aspects and makes sense of the painting aesthetic.
That's a misleading, obfuscating way to make the difference. I guess the OP means an OSI-approved licence.
If you write your own licence (not recommended, but some developers and especially corporations do) it could be even fully compliant, but not approved.
"open source" and "free software" are two words for the exact same thing.
Both of them are pretty poor descriptors. "open source" doesn't convey the legal freedom you are granted (as you have just found out), and "free software" makes it sound like it's just about price.
If someone lets you see source code but doesn't allow you to do anything with that code it's not what people would call "open source", you could probably call it source-available or something. "open source" has a specific legal definition that means code released with a permissive license.
Off topic but I think movies and TV shows are suffering the same problem. We have exhausted every way of telling good stories. Nowadays if you want to give the audience "something new" or "something they've never seen before", the only way is to increase craziness and intenseness, which is the opposite of good stories.
I think that's less a question of having ways to tell good stories and more one of a creative space being exhausted. There's a desire in a long-running series to keep raising the stakes as the series progresses, but doing so reaches a point where there's nowhere left to raise the stakes. I think that's been a bit of the problem with Doctor Who in the last few years. As they've kept raising the stakes (right up to the existence of the universe), there's nowhere left to go.
Question: this tool offered start-time and end-time, but no toggle about "accurate seek"? I've always been confused about the `-noaccurate_seek` flag (when cutting clips with `-c copy`).
I use this flag because I don't need accurate seek, but sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. When it doesn't work, there will be a few seconds of frozen image at the beginning of the cut. Don't know how to solve it.
Isn't that only relevant because you're using -c copy? Without transcoding, ffmpeg will just copy the stream from that start-time. But because video codecs store data as incremental updates to a keyframe, without transcoding, those first few seconds will be useless data. -noaccurate_seek looks for the keyframe so you do not have that useless data.
Though according to the ffmpeg docs on -ss, it should be doing noaccurate_seeks if you're doing stream copy.
Also I'm unsure about this, but I think the audio stream can be cut at a different location than the video stream, leading to the frozen frame, and different video players seem to handle it differently. I've got a clip I've made, with transcoded video stream but copied audio stream, that is 1:06 on Firefox with the extra audio at the beginning, but 1:03 on VLC, MPC, Chrome, and desynced in Edge. Extracting the audio with ffmpeg again gives a time of 1:04.02 compared to a video stream of 1:03.
I'm confused about wikidata vs wikipedia - I'm surprised by the large number of dots near me, I thought every dot was related to a wikipedia article, then I clicked on the dots and realized they were wikidata, not wikipedia
I have a personal opinion that might not be popular
Wikipedia is actual encyclopedia and useful
Wikidata is a weird idea to create a weird “semantic web” - a hierarchy of everything that ever existed or will exist - and it’s about as useful and easy to understand as previous experiments with semantic web.
Wikimedia seems to double down on this instead of letting it die; I really don’t understand the point, I don’t think that it’s useful and it’s really hard to edit, as a editor.
Interesting thing is - it’s CC0 instead of creative commons for some reason. Their argument is that you cannot copyright a fact. I donno.
Weird take when wikidata has 117% year-over-year page view growth.
The audience is quite different, and it may very well not be useful to you, and that is ok, but wikidata clearly has an audience and seems to be on an upswing. Its certainly doing better than pretty much all the other sister projects.
As an aside, politically wikidata is really WM-DE's baby, so its really more them doubling down and WMF along for the ride, but of course its all very intertwined.
It’s definitely not the least useful of the wiki projects - that award definitely goes to WikiNews - but at least WikiNews is not intertwined with everything on wikipedia.
