You are 10 million years old and get $6

One day authentication of new users will be impossible and the only way to get on will be to purchase it from someone who already has it. Entire companies will run on a single account hey bought for millions of dollars. News stories will run of a vengeful or negligent employees bricking the one corporate account, until a cartel of business owners attempts to corner the market.

It’s an “.avi.exe”.

milkytoast,
@milkytoast@kbin.social avatar

yeah idk if vlc does .exe

rotopenguin,
@rotopenguin@infosec.pub avatar

Windows would be greatly improved if it would let you bind VLC as the default handler of exe files

milkytoast,
@milkytoast@kbin.social avatar

I'm sure there's a way

i actually accidentally made all exe files open in Windows Media Center on a family pc as a kid.
basically the system had to be reinstalled.

YoorWeb,

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Turun,

Mp4 and mkv are container formats. Your comment is somewhat equivalent to “where are you guys getting text files that can’t be displayed, I’ve only ever seen zip files”.

The codec in the container is what needs to be played, and can fail to render correctly.

Red pill so I can become powerful enough to end everyone’s need for money

Hold on I have to look up all the winning games so I can become a billionaire just by gambling.

After that red pill all the way

reverendsteveii, in Which pill do you choose?

I was 6 in 1990. I can make stock moves that are worth more than $10 million by the time I get to today pretty easily. Maybe fix a couple things that could’ve gone differently while I’m there. I’m not scared of randomness, I’ve thrived in it once already.

Steve, in Playing an unsupported file

Uninstall that shit and use VLC

Magnetar,

VLC could play a polaroid image of the Voyager records.

this is the correct answer

And if you want to play on a TV that doesn’t support the format, convert it with FFMpeg.

kuberoot,

I’ve had good experience using mkvtoolnix to mux video into an mkv with subtitles included. Not sure if mkv support is widespread, but as janky as the TV was with other formats, mkv worked great every time.

deranger,

MPC-HC also a very good choice

Land_Strider, (edited )

Installing MPC-HC during K-Lite Code pack as my primary media player has taken place of VLC for me this last year. I have been using VLC as music player only with some Winamp-like no-viewport UI lately.

deranger,

Been using k-lite codec pack since the Kazaa days, very good stuff. MPC-HC with madVR looks excellent.

PraiseTheSoup,

Been using both MPC-HC and VLC for years now. Between the two of them there is no file that you cannot play.

SomeGuy69, in Which pill do you choose?

With six it would give me the opportunity to move to my dad and spare me 6 more years of torture and violence. I’d take that even over 100 billion.

Meowlicious compliance

Meowoem, in Which pill do you choose?

Six year old, easy choice - do something mildly special for a kid that age and get on TV then when they ask you a question the answer is ‘well it was a dream i had, there was a pale horse riding towards us snd the horses name was Tod, it was going to run over everyone but an angel told me to call out to the faithful and save them…’

Kid can’t even read and from an atheist family then starts quoting bible and making up complex visions and messages no child could ever create - plus very clear predictions that come perfectly true, knowledge of science before it’s discovered… Admit it, you’d get sucked into my cult.

Could have a huge portion of the world believing, teach them the need for luxury gay space communism then when we’re all living in utopia be like ‘oh btw it was just a time travel prank lol’

psud, in Which pill do you choose?

Back when I was 6, in 1983, my uncle who worked in the oil industry told me about global warming.

I could totally have been a real radical environmentalist, but I was 6.

A second time around that talk would have an impact, and with some foresight for the next 40 years. I think no one would be surprised if I devoted everything to fixing global warming - they might be surprised at my success in the stock market.

orcrist,

Global warming was first modeled in 1896. And the idea of greenhouse gas was known in around 1856. Knowledge was never the problem.

psud,

Sure. When did you first hear about it, and that it was caused by burning fossil fuels?

qwerty_bastard,

I was born in the eighties, and I’m sure I’ve known about it all my life.

orcrist,

Certainly that general knowledge is older than I am.
