In-reply-to » @kat why does ffmpeg always freeze the video in the first five seconds after a cut lmfao

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I have absolutely no idea, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it uses the closest full image after your cut point and not the one before. Hence, the deltas between the two full images have nothing to really refer to. So, the video player just shows the first full image it finds and “freezes” the image until the video stream actually hits it.

Let me try to visualize it, | represent full images, . just subsequent deltas:

Original start of video
↓
|......|.....|........|......|..
   ↑                      ↑
   Cut point      Cut point

Resulting video:

   ....|.....|........|....
   ↑↑↑↑
   This is where it freezes         

Could be complete bullshit, though. Wouldn’t be the first time that I’m wrong. :-)

I’m just curious, what exact command line do you use to cut the video?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yeah same YAML over XML forever bc at least one is more readable lmfao!! doesn’t forgive YAML’s crimes though
 cursed formats

In-reply-to » @bender That was one of the inputs into my research 🧐 So that's already factored in. We bought our new truck (2025 GWM Canon) recently to replace the 'ol 2nd hand Nissan Navara we bought that just had too many things go wrong with it, and I don't have time or energy to learn to be a diesel mechanic haha đŸ€Ł -- So yes, the SCT-16 has a Tare (unladen weight) of 2150Kg and a maximum legal (ATM) weight of 2,800Kg.

@bender@twtxt.net I plan to trade it in within it’s warranty period đŸ€Ł It has 7yr warrants on everything, I said to the dealer, I’ll see you in 5 đŸ€Ł

@prologic@twtxt.net interesting, a Chinese pickup truck. Hmm, I would very interested to know your thoughts about it 2-3 years from now.

In-reply-to » After many weeks and probably at least a hundred hours of research, discussions and in-person viewing, I think I've finally come up with my Final Choices (shortlist) of a Hybrid Camper / Caravan that I think will suit my family and that I'll enjoy (far less work for me to setup and teardown). The one at the top of the list I'm leaning towards os the SWAG SCT16 Family 4B Media #Camping #Campers

@prologic@twtxt.net that looks like a beautiful camper! What kind of truck do you have to pull it? That could be the next thing you might need to focus on. I mean, 2,800kg gross is not feather light!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I kind of like XML because it’s mostly well-defined and easy for humans to read (unlike YAML, which is a complete mess, imho) 
 and at the same time, it can get complicated really fast. đŸ«€ But at least it’s plain-text – that’s the important part in this case. 😅

In-reply-to » @lyse Hm, I don’t think so, the requested page was a Linux-specific post. đŸ€” I sometimes wonder if privacy-oriented browsers might do this on purpose, to create garbage data? đŸ€” No idea.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s an interesting idea. For privacy, I’d just omit the Referer altogether. But maybe this helps talking to misconfigured HTTP servers that reject requests without such a header. No clue.

In-reply-to » @lyse Ja, eine kleine Inventur vorab kann auch nicht schaden. Der Bestand an Erdankern, Heringen und Gaskartuschen ist durch mich die Tage schon wieder aufgestockt worden. Wo das Gas bleibt weiß ich. Warum die Befestigungen immer weniger werden, obwohl wir durchzĂ€hlen (!), ist mir unbekannt. Vielleicht sind wir im Zahlenraum von 1 bis 20 einfach nur noch sehr unsicher. đŸ€“

@arne@uplegger.eu Das ist wie mit Kulis. Die verschwinden auch urplötzlich auf völlig unerklÀrliche Weise.

In-reply-to » @arne Au, Zelturlaub klingt klasse! Bei mir ist es auch bald so weit, freu mich schon. Dank der AusrĂŒstungsĂŒberprĂŒfung im Materiallager haben wir demletzt festgestellt, dass gleich zwei Spinnen (so Metallketten, an denen die JurtendĂ€cher hochgezogen werden) fehlen. Ein Probeaufbau – und sei es nur unter Laborbedingungen – lohnt sich in jedem Fall. Improvisieren zu können ist zwar von Vorteil, aber wenn es sich vermeiden lĂ€sst, fĂ€ngt der Urlaub gleich ein wenig entspannter an. :-)

In-reply-to » ROFL đŸ€Ł I've just read from someone on the Fedi, that Bluesky has started asking people for ID

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com And I read the following funny response to that:

Bluesky: Users verify their age by adding a payment method or uploading a photo ID.

Mastodon: Users verify their age by posting pictures of the vintage computer equipment in their homes.

In-reply-to » PSA: setpriv on Linux supports Landlock.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s really cool! I wanted to experiment with Landlock in tt as well. But other than just thinking about it, nothing really happened.

Depending on the available Landlock ABI version your kernel supports, you might even restrict connect(
) calls to ports 80, 443 and maybe whatever else has been configured in the subscription list.

In-reply-to » PSA: setpriv on Linux supports Landlock.

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, it’s not a strong sandbox in jenny’s case, it could still read my SSH private key (in case of an exploit of some sort). But I still like it.

I think my main takeaway is this: Knowing that technologies like Landlock/pledge/unveil exist and knowing that they are very easy to use, will probably nudge me into writing software differently in the future.

jenny was never meant to be sandboxed, so it can’t make great use of it. Future software might be different.

(And this is finally a strong argument for static linking.)
