Sometimes I write out whole parapgraphs and then decided not to post.

I get that.

Sometimes I realize that I don't want to argue over the forum, and sometimes I feel like my position will just be ignored anyway, or even that my particular position doesn't have a large body of evidence behind it.

Other times I have to resist the urge to do the shitpost.

It attracts banhammers, though. So, y'know. Trade offs.

If you use a batch file to automatically encode a file at a lot of bitrates in FFmpeg, do not open a Windows Explorer window in the working directory. It will freeze, and you will have to kill the process. Look at this seemingly-innocuous batch file:
Code: [Select]
FOR /L %%X IN (6000, 2000, 320000) DO (
ffmpeg -f u8 -ar 48k -ac 1 -i foo-bar.raw -c:a libmp3lame -b:a %%X foo-bar-mp3-%%X.mp3
)

Okay, that's not particularly innocuous (or sane), but it's not like I'm trying to generate hundreds of files per second. It's not like I'm doing shit like:

Code: [Select]
FOR /L %%X IN (1, 1, 1000000) DO (
echo %%X > %%X.txt
)

But apparently even an update rate of 1 file every 5 seconds is too much for Explorer to handle.

Oh, also, be careful about using ogg or ogv files. A standard Win10 installation and Windows Explorer HATES them. Had to uninstall some kind of base windows audio thinger so that Explorer wouldn't shit the bed when I was trying to share audio snippets to friends over Steam.

Just, wholly, absurdly bizarre.

I'm of the mind that a little bit of light post fare, sometimes in the form of toothless snark, is a nice conversational lubricant that helps other topics pop up or keeps posts happening because we see that 'new' title pop up and have to investigate. I don't always have a big point to make or a big list of supporting details to make it with, but you throw a little something out there and if it develops, you've helped make good conversation, right?

Is that a challenge? I'm tempted to make a ton of .ogv and .ogg files at varying bitrates to test this bug out.

Sudden realization that the perfect title for a charizard serial killer fanfic would be "A Thousand and One Tails."

Pretty sure charizard would be the best fitting, anyway. There might be a newer gen one with a closer name, I'unno.

Anyway, you may now picture a charizard in veils toting around a bundle of bloody pokemon tails. You're welcome.

Chopping the tails off Slowpokes was actually a plot point in the second generation, so, well, the precedent's already set. Ramp it up with a little torture gorn and drop victims into a Cloyster of trials while Helter Shellder players in the background i don't know i think i lost track of the point
