Debian stable + flatpaks is a great combo. Sometimes I still wish some packages were more recent (not fun when yt-dlp starts breaking), sometimes I've been let down by their oldness in Debian Testing, and even Unstable (wanted to test Plasma 6 for instance). Overall I'm happier that there's way more stuff in the official debian repos I would have to use AUR for otherwise.
Yep. Loads of unorganized (and some organized) files uploaded over decades via FTP 😅 a mess full of gems
Apparently the issues are mostly with the outgoing download links from libgen.rs and .st (passing through libgen.lol), including the IPFS links which were being problematic in the past few months already.
Instead I just tried something from libgen.gs which is the one for comicbooks, and it's downloading fine from the direct link.
Thankfully most if not all content should be backed up on Annas-archive!
There are many encodes floating around and even a full bluray copy (criterion collection) on ygg.re... but I'm curious, how come it's at the top of your list?
Hi there, it looks like Journeys is considered the 23rd season of Pokemon (wikipedia says so too), I found it on TMDB: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/60572/season/23
I was interested in the "non-traditional" fps of Fury Road so here's the relevant part from wikipedia, they actually used less than 24 for most of the movie.
According to Seale, "something like 50 or 60 percent of the film is not running at 24 frames a second, which is the traditional frame rate. It'll be running below 24 frames because George, if he couldn't understand what was happening in the shot, he slowed it down until you could ... Or if it was too well understood, he'd shorten it or he'd speed it up back towards 24. His manipulation of every shot in that movie is intense."[75] The Washington Post noted that the changing frame rate gives the film an "almost cartoonishly jerky" look.[76]
Hi Zedstrain If compressing, why not opus? AAC is almost as good but you have to make sure you're using a good encoder, and its licensing is not as open.
Anyway I found this table, next to "Music Storage", it shows the suggested bitrate values depending on the number of audio channels, from 96 to 450. Should applicable to movies, and to AAC (maybe adding 10% bitrate?).
For movies I'd use these values personally:
2 channels: kbps 128 (150 AAC)
6 (5.1): 196 (224 AAC)
8 (7.1): 256 (300 AAC)
Other than avoiding those services as much as possible, I use a second phone number for "machine-communication"= whenever I'm not giving my phone# to a person.
I'm in the EU, I found a provider in my country that offered a prepaid sim card (pay-per-use) with no expiry date, but never use the credit on it because it's free to receive sms. I turn it on in my dual sim phone whenever I need it.
I'd even get the Xvid DVDrip of it, but never the cam rip they are vile 😂
Yeah, in this case quantity makes the poison (mycotoxins can be on so many foods, we don't go lab-testing every bite), and all the people saying the mould root system is already soo deep are overly paranoid, those fungi started from the outside you are definitely cutting most of it just by using your eyes and cutting with a tiny safety margin.
Or, they have a commercial interest or are paid by someone who does. Fucking losers either way
I've been surprised by the ease of use and stability of MX Linux, they also maintain a repo with some key packages updated, like Firefox. It's Debian Stable with a few tricks up its sleeve.
