All the friends he had in the pit. They're not going to be happy, they seem to be quite attached to the dragon for some reason.

Idk, this image is funny to meπŸ˜….

It's just a young adult miss managing their community as they learn how to run a big project for the first time.

We all made asses out of our selves when we were young and most of us have outgrown it.

I can't blame them. There's a lot out there that I still remain ignorant of. I'm sure we're all a bit ill informed here and there.

There one glaring issue. Most people don't really even know what an operating system is and some of the people I talk to think Linux is a manufacture.

I literally bring up Linux to my friend when they are having trouble getting windows to work and they say I think I have a linux. They mean it's a Lenovo but they seem pretty confused about the idea of installing a different OS on their machine. This isn't just older people but 20 something year olds (about my age).

It's funny to me but I try to be patient and help them with their problems anyway.

Anti cheat is about the only thing that doesn't work but I see that as a bonus. Anti cheat is more like a virus than it ever has been with the rootkit thing.

Tbh, it just fits my workflow better. I would find myself editing stuff in nano more so than something like vscode because navigation in a file browser gets a little clunky for me. So it seemed fitting to learn neovim. I find the features more of a nuisance than a benefit at this stage and I want to properly understand how to use the underlying technologies these programs extract away.

I typically know exactly what I'm looking for and if I need more help I could check something out like fuzzy find. Those search boxes on file browsers are hit and miss for me, especially with Dot files. I store my scripts in a folder called .scripts and I reference them alot while building my apps.

Actually most my apps start out as scripts because prototyping is easier when you don't initially worry about UI or optimization and focus on the core functionality.

You guys are using graphical IDEs and text editors? I've been learning to program in neovim.

It's like using edge to download a better browser but with extra steps.

It's annoying but you can do multiple transcodes at a time on everything but Linux. It's only annoying because the complexity of h265 means it's highly serialized compared to older codecs.

I could easily handle multiple transcodes at a time on my 12 core processor with dvds but something like 4k blueray and sometimes hd blueray (depending on the complexity) saturates my processor. It doesn't run transcodes in a separate process

Did they add support in this version?

You don't have to be combative, all I was saying is the gui doesn't make much difference to me. It worked perfectly fine before and I'm sure it'll keep working just as well as before.

What would make a bigger difference is improvements to the backend seeing that it effects over 90% of the experience and usability of the app. I spend less time in the gui than I do renaming files in my file manager or even the make mkv app.

I've already said that but I guess you didn't read past the first line. I didn't say give up on development I said who cares about a change in graphics toolkit.

Meh, I use the UI for like ten minutes and let it transcode multiple collection of seasons over the course of a weekend.

It's a little nicer and a tad faster but it really doesn't make a big difference unless they improve transcoding speeds/quality. Otherwise I don't really touch it unless I buy a new box set or go to a garage sale.

If anyone's curious I rip full quality media with make mkv and point handbrake at the folder to compress it with hevc.

I miss palm phones too.
