Lovely article. I tried AV1, which is indeed a meme, atm not practical for anything over 30 seconds at 720p. I agree with opus; the magnum opus of audio codecs atm. and i'd say that if h265 use h264, which is 10x faster. Also, handbrake if you like a GUI. Also, a few days ago I ripped a DVD, and I must say, the quality was higher in my memory.

What I find funny about DVDs is that we had to invent Blu-Rays so that Hollywood could provide us with video better than SD. Dual layer DVDs are 8.5GB so you could fit 8K HEVC video in it and you'd need to do signal analysis on a computer to tell the difference visually.

You monster! I'd rather buy more disk space (which is ridiculously cheap anyway these days) than putting wrecked compressed gulag versions of my treasures on a single faulty flash disk.

Clarification: not anime; that is always worthless and your method is the way to go.

ayy shintel sux. AMD's rise from the ashes with Zen has really been amazing to see, destroying intel in every market segment, all coming from the FX8350, an electricity hog that was a decent budget CPU when the price dropped because otherwise it wouldn't sell.

I had bought a Ryzen 3700x a month ago and it's probably been the most satisfying thing I've done this year. I hate Shintel with a passion, so finally sticking it to these stasi motherfuckers felt great.

Thank you for your thoughts. I think internet overuse is more symptom than cause; loneliness was rising before its popularisation with the smartphone. I plan on further critiques of communism in the future, but this one was getting on my nerves because of how trivial it was to disprove.

Your analysis on incels currently and in the foreseable future is spot on. Though I don't believe that incels had it much better in the past either. If you look at our DNA it is obvious that we have had more female ancestors than male ancestors. In other words most women reproduced whereas most men did not. In other words those women had sex with a smaller pool of men.
Fewer lines of code. More features. Still 0 bytes of JS.
