The further you read, the worse it gets.
When I had the same issue, I solved it this way:
lvxVidRencodeAll () {
for i in *; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -c:v libx265 "zz-$i" ; done
pw-play /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/complete.oga
}
lvxVidResizeAll () {
for i in *; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -filter:v scale=-2:720 -c:v libx265 "zz-$i" ; done
pw-play /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/complete.oga
}
They're both in a script that gets loaded by my .bashrc. Then I simply open the terminal, in a dir full of vids to perform one of those functions, and I run the command. No args. The first one converts the video to H265, the second one resizes it to 720p and converts it.
Why I'm sharing this: because odds are you won't use ffmpeg for a lot of different stuff, only for the same things over and over. You don't need an LLM for that, you need to spend some time deciding what you want to do, and then storing it for later in a script.
A better analogy would be when you pick pollen from one flower and use it to fertilise another.
...I do this all the time with my pepper plants.
No shit.
Also, one effect people are not often taking into account is that this will cripple exports that rely on raw or intermediate materials produced elsewhere. Making them less attractive in comparison with goods that avoid USA altogether in the production chain. All that surplus value, that would be extracted from people around the world? Gone.
I'd usually say "may he rest in peace", but he'd probably find it lame and boring, so: may he rest with lots and lots of booze. And cocaine.
Conservative lawmakers have also done their best to attack the policy. During one speech during a debate about quotas, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro — the son of the former far-right president, Jair Bolsonaro — asked, “What about poor whites?”
Whataboutism runs in the family, uh.
That said, there are also quotas for those. For example, I'll coarsely translate an excerpt from Paraná's Federal University's site:
Thus, there are four quota groups:
- Public school students, regardless of income;
- Public school students, with household income lower than 1.5 minimum wages per capita;
- Black [pretos], mixed [pardos], and indigenous [indígenas] students, regardless of income;
- Black, mixed, and indigenous students, with household income lower than 1.5 minimum wages per capita.
Relevant to note low and mid-low classes study almost exclusively in public schools.
Some anecdote. My uni (the above) implemented quotas in '05; by then I was in my first grad, so I remember it well. Criticism sprouted from all sides, including black people - like one student saying she was glad she was admitted in '03, so nobody would think she did it "through the backdoor" (pela porta dos fundos).
To be fair with her, back then nobody actually knew how it would turn out. Two decades later, though, we see the quotas help by a lot.
It's also relevant to note that, in Latin America, racism piggybacks on classism; while in Canada and USA I feel like it's the opposite. In other words, I think the primary source of prejudice here is social class. This should explain where both Flávio Bolsonaro's "whataboutism" and that student's comment come from.
TL;DR: facts do change minds, but you need to attack the false beliefs that are central to the belief feedback loop; dumb shit like "ackshyually" won't do anything.
This reminds me the Welsh speakers in Chubut. It's, like, ~10k people; same backstory as Canadian Gaelic - immigrants in the XIX century.
The notion of “class” is heavily overloaded. Here I am referring to class as a socioeconomic identity derived from income, educational attainment, and occupation, following Kouaho and Epstein [37] . As a finer granule of class I will focus on profession (i.e., occupation), as members of a profession are typically (though not always) also homogeneous with respect to income and educational attainment.
Slur: comparing someone’s work which is confirmed not to be using AI with AI-generated work, as a means of critique or negative reflection on that person’s abilities.
The author is clearly cherry picking definitions of "class" and "slur" in order to call that behaviour "classist slur" - because the later is negatively charged. Pfffft.
Preferably a 2D one, to account for both "I luuuuv both" and "a plague in both houses".
We could simply map front/back = law/chaos and closed/open = good/evil... but that's booooring.
Instead, let's say:
- Cardinal vowels are lawful, glides are chaotic. Everything else is neutral.
- Good vowels are only defined by height, backness, and roundness. Give them an additional contrast and they become neutral, two and they're evil, three and they're the sounds uttered by Satan when you just reach Hell.
So for example the schwa strictu sensu is true neutral - it isn't just a central vowel, it's also reduced (shorter). Something like [ɜ̥̃ʊ̥̃] is chaotic evil. But most languages have a backbone of lawful good vowels.
This is probably obvious, but:
The reason those businesses so consistently distort what SKG is about is to mislead the public, into not supporting SKG. They want their "remote kill switches", even if they're an unfair market practice - because if you're playing a 10yo game, you aren't buying whatever slop they released in the current year.
