Grumpydaddy, to mildlyinteresting in At the Internet Archive, this is how we digitize a book—one page at a time, by hand.

Looks like two pages at a time to me.

vynlwombat,

Gotem

xor,

each piece of paper is a page, since they do the front of one and the back of another at the same time, it’s one page total…

Grumpydaddy,

One Sheet, Two Pages A sheet of paper has two sides. Each side is considered one page. So a single sheet of unfolded paper is two pages.

If I remember correctly in this particular case Alex Jones was right - which is a very very weird thing to write to be honest.

Here is a deep dive by Oki’s weird stories

and his Interview with Tyrone Hayes

I despise Alex Jones He is a sad fart of a human being and I hate that it seems in his career of obscene, hurtful and dumb conspiracy shit there is one thing that he got actually right. Apes on a typewriter.

He was kinda right. IIRC there was a study done that found that fluoride may have caused a slight increase in estrogen levels in male frogs, but I don’t think it was significant enough to effect their behavior

the_Coffin_Seller,
@the_Coffin_Seller@lemmy.world avatar

You’re right I should have said there is only a small amount of truth in his comment. I remember watching oki’s deep dive and the beginning kinda stuck in my head where he himself said that he doesn’t like the fact alex jones was correct on something

Franzia,

Sad fart. Who is a happy fart of a human?

GhostsAreShitty, to piracy in Naming Torrents

Either are fine, I just wish there was a more consistent standard like naming ROMs. I want to be able to script renaming everything for Kodi

CmdrShepard,

In my experience, files are named pretty well these days to include resolution, source, the actual title and release year, video format, audio format, language, and release group.

Try looking at the way music files are named and you’ll see how awful naming conventions can get.

Laser,

I think your workflow is not optimal. Are you using software like Radarr and Sonarr? They do the renaming for you and come with Kodi integration. Or is this not feasible?

GhostsAreShitty,

Oh it’s totally inefficient. It’s not the most feasible with my current setup, so I’m making do with what I have at the moment.

pete_the_cat,

I think OP means ROM files for video games systems. Kodi has a RetroArch plugin. As I’m sure you’re aware, Sonarr and Radarr only do TV shows and movies, respectively. Managing ROM packs is a pain in the ass because there are usually thousands of files in a pack (I think there’s something stupid like 9,000 ROMs for NES or SNES).

  • pete_the_cat,

    There is a database that I found called Smoke Monster’s Database, it’s actually a bunch of “databases” (files, not actually databases) that you load into a program and point it at a directory and it categorizes, organizes, and renamed everything for you.

    A lot of ROM packs that are out there are pretty old considering the systems that they’re for are decades old and have been passed around and added to for years. The packs are usually in a flat file structure and there are usually multiple files for the same game (version updates from the manufacturer) so it gets annoying pretty quickly. Do you want to have to scroll through 9000 NES games just to get to the Zelda: A Link to the Past?

    pete_the_cat,

    Look up SMDB (smoke monster’s database). You can download a tool (I forget what it’s actually called, I think one is called ROM manager) which reads the SMDB files and compares the hashes to your ROMs and will categorize and rename them for you. It looks for duplicates, unofficial releases/hacks/patches, categorizes them by country (US, EU and Japan largely), and more. It’s a pretty nifty tool.

    I spent like two hours going through PS1 ROMs and was like “there’s got to be a better way!” (insert cheesy black and white infomerical cutaway), started looking up stuff and there it was. Not all game systems are supported (mostly NES, SNES, Genesis/MegaDrive, and a few others) but you can build SMDB “packs” yourself.

    I forget if it works on Windows, but I know it works on Linux and it’s either a script or a compiled binary, I forget which, but you can definitely script it, I’ve done so myself since the command string tends to be a bit long.

    ech, to mildlyinteresting in At the Internet Archive, this is how we digitize a book—one page at a time, by hand.

    WHY do people think everything needs to be cropped to hell just to fit on their phone. The screen rotates. Just twist it around ya lazy bastards.

    Anyhow, here’s a link to the full size video that isn’t pointlessly cut down by 75%: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QThaHpkFVzw

    GBU_28,

    Why care? In a second I’ll leave this video and never think of it again. The key point is conveyed, and we are all done.

    ech,

    Because someone went out of their way to mutilate a video for no reason, so I’m gonna go out of my way to make it right. Just because you can’t be bothered to care doesn’t mean everyone else is just like you.

    GBU_28, (edited )

    This isn’t a “significant” video. By any standard. Digest the information and move on. Doing otherwise is fist fighting the waves on the beach.

    Most importantly, the purpose and message of the video is conveyed.

    ech,

    Thankfully, you don’t get to decide what other people consider “significant”. I’ll spend my time how I want, thanks.

    GBU_28,

    Literally name any metric or qualifier of objective nature.

    ech,

    Lol, no. You don’t get to debate me into not valuing something. Deal with it.

    GBU_28,

    You deal. You’re the one having a this about a fully informative short clip.

    You clearly only have subjective value positions to argue from, and can’t meaningfully refute my points.

    There’s no problem enjoying content the way you do. There’s a problem getting angry about a video that literally does it’s job

    ech,

    Nah.

    GBU_28,

    Glad we tidied this up. Resume the video!!

    …OP’s is the desirable format.

    v81,

    Here I am on my phone. I do not desire this format. And nothing you have posted suggests that anyone wants this format.

    All it shows is device, not preference.

    Anytime something is recorded wide screen my wish is that it remains in that format, regardless of platform I am on.

    If I’m on my phone it takes less than half a second to rotate my screen and view as intended, on my desktop I can’t do that.

    Also in this case quite a bit of the original was lost, seeing the YouTube version is much better.

    I always use mousewheeldown click nowadays, it opens the link in a new tab.

    Also mwd on the tabs themselves close the tab (without needing to hit the tiny cross).

    Would it help turning on the setting to have the links always open in a new tab?
    It's been a long time since I used ddg, but I believe they have the option in their settings page, most search engines do.

    Illecors,

    While this is not a bad shout, I hate that this rearranging logic has made it to production in the first place. Ddg should really know better.

    mo_lave, to memes in "OpenAI Staff Threaten to Quit Unless Board Resigns"

    I’m more sympathetic with the (non-profit) board this time. Sam Altman feels like bad news to OpenAI, really. It’s more like the workers rally behind Sam Altman because they can get fat paychecks and bail out once the enshittification intensifies.

    why not use underscores?

    Octopus1348,

    They are ugly. Just use -

    Dozzi92,
    @Dozzi92@lemmy.world avatar

    What happens when a hyphen is used in a movie title? I think that’s frequent enough, versus an underscore or a period.

    Rogue,

    Semi colons wouldn’t be valid in file names so they’re ignored so there’s no reason to include hyphens either

    p3e7, (edited )

    kebab-case-for-the-win

    rustyricotta,

    I’ve always liked underscores better because it differentiates from the file extension. It just makes sense. Except it is a wider character, so it’d be longer.

    Dozzi92,
    @Dozzi92@lemmy.world avatar

    TimewornTraveler,

    wow azerty needs shift to enter a period?

    Astaroth,

    well if you’re using a mono font (terminal) then there are no such thing as wider characters anyway, so for me that’s not a drawback either

    BrianTheeBiscuiteer,

    Underscores require you to use the Shift key.

    Astaroth,

    Do you type with one hand?

    And well even if you did you could hold down right shift instead of left shift to only use a single hand.

    BrianTheeBiscuiteer,

    When you have RSI you want to minimize every single key press.
