Not sure what the point of this is, it just seems to be a thin wrapper around yt-dlp ( https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp )

ffmpeg has abysmal defaults. I've always been of the opinion that CLI utilities should have sane defaults useful to a majority of users. As someone who has used ffmpeg for well over a decade, I find it baffling that you have to pass

Nice! This reminds me of my own ffmpeg cheatsheet; I would imagine that everyone who uses ffmpeg frequently has a similar set of notes https://github.com/fastily/cheatsheet/blob/master/ffmpeg.md

On win 10 there used to be a button to create a local account, but they removed it and made it so you had to disconnect from WiFi to get to that screen. Then they changed it to make it so that you have to disconnect from WiFi AND run some

As someone who enjoys RPG games with a lot of collectibles, Terraria’s “Quick stack to nearby chests” comes to mind. For those who haven’t played Terraria, here’s how this works: you stand in your base next to chests you’ve stored your lo

No, I never said anywhere that chrome should be used. As a matter of fact, I use Firefox myself. My original observation was that Mozilla presents itself as a benevolent non-profit yet behaves like soulless for-profit tech company, abandoni

To be fair YouTube isn’t “back up”. Everything that gets uploaded to YouTube gets re-encoded and that’s generally a lossy process

IMO it’s a matter of principle. Mozilla is supposed to be a non-profit that exists to support the development of a FOSS browser and its related projects. Over the years it seems like they’ve strayed from this mission, behaving more and mor

Not OP but I use OVH which is better value and more reliable. OVH VPS’s also include unlimited bandwidth, by comparison hetzner imposes data caps and will nickel and dime you on just about everything. I run a few bandwidth heavy applicati

I use OVH (VPS’s specifically), which offers unlimited bandwidth. In my experience they’ve been both reliable and affordable which is a rarity. I run a few applications that require high amounts of bandwidth, so silly caps like the ones tha
