Exactly what I mean. There is zero organizing going on for PSL in this area, so it doesn’t feel nearly as important to push for a socialist vote compared to other issues, like ranked choice voting and cannabis legalization.

Yeah, she’s been on my radar and I’ve heard some pretty good ideas and beliefs espoused by her and her running mate. Building leftist movements in a deep-red state is very much a “step lightly” action though, so I have worries that any overt socialist growth here will mean more attempted attacks on pride festivals by neo-nazis, and such. Hell, even mention of “antifa” brings out the crazies to roam the streets with rifles.

This is the #1 reason I have a hard time considering voting for Kamala in a non-swing state. We’ve got ranked choice voting in the ballot, so I’ll definitely be voting, but idk if I’ll cast a presidential vote or not.

I don’t endorse her, so why should I vote like it?

I’m pretty sure this is how

Huh. Must be one of your mom’s belts

He dead. Mine now

Just hit him

Listen, putting ‘Web Developer’ isn’t any worse than putting ‘Software Engineer’ in your tinder bio. Either way, you’ve fucked up.

Tbf, Brutus didn’t go for a killing blow. He stabbed Caesar right in the dick. I’d say he deserved what he got.

Large media figures should be held to a higher standard than the average person. Drake specifically should be held to a higher standard because literal children idolize and impersonate him.

You bot

I don’t think you understand how peta works. It’s not a monolith who does their own work. If you want to do some animal rights activism, peta will help you acquire supplies and support publication. Give everyone a voice, and you’re bound to find some takes you don’t like.

I’ve gotten assistance from peta before, and they’re way more helpful than any other org.

The full images really aren’t that bad. If sexyman convinced you to spay/neuter, that’s a good thing.

Part of being vegan is understanding you’ll be mocked and criticized for completely unrelated things. Like Bubly sparkling water or blue denim, for example.

The worst part is that you might be better off with a pirated copy due to DRM on Blu-ray.

Yes. There’s a gui software called ‘Nmkoder’ that has an encoder built in called AV1AN. It basically cuts the entire video into a bunch of short segments, renders several copies of each short segments at different CRF values (basically Handbrake’s RF values), gets the VMAF for each segment, saves only the one thats closest matches your Target VMAF, and stitches it all together at the end.

It works for AV1 and HEVC, and let’s you pause and resume an encode at any time, though the whole process is quite a bit slower.

The real problem though is that doesn’t produce an even size between source materials of different sizes. For example: a 5 GB Amazon screen rip can encode down to 1.5 GB at 95 VMAF or so. However a 60 GB bluray rip encodes down to 24 GB. One thing I really look for in an encode is a 5-15 MBPS HEVC video stream, so this doesn’t really get what I’m wanting in most cases. It is fun to experiment with though.

I’ve tried to look into this by analyzing the media and encoder information, and all I’ve come up with is that tigole is slightly larger than Silence (by like 4%), but seems to use the exact same “sets” of encoding profiles. So in theory I believe they should be identical, but in practice might not be.
