I’m not convinced. You’d need a ton of brown pulp material mixed in to make all the fat compost properly.

Sometimes it’s better to just dump it and start fresh with quality materials.

I feel sick saying it, but I think this is a project you could complete with AI. It sucks ass at understanding complex problems, but it’s good at cranking out small scripts to integrate tools together.

You basically just want a wrapper around ffmpeg with a light web interface to handle upload, script execution, and download.

LLMs are pretty good at spitting out a simple web interface that runs in a barebones server like Express or nginx.

If you don’t need to worry about security or accessibility or any “not on the critical path” concerns, this could probably work after a few iterations.

As for anything already out there - I’ve never come across anything. The closest app I can think of is TDARR which is intended to automatically transcode your media library to h265. That wraps up some of the ffmpeg stuff you want, but doesn’t address the upload/download half of the workflow.

A quarter of the country has already voted and now he’s releasing something?!

I hope this means my laziness in not early voting last weekend pays off and I get a nice quiet room when I slither over midday on election day.

I would personally refuse to go. But that’s not always feasible depending on your job and relationship with your company.

I would at minimum not bring any personal electronics. The border agent may demand your device, unlocked, so they can disappear into a back room for a few minutes before returning it to you. Assume all your credentials stored on the device will have copied and that the US Federal government now has access to your everything. You can refuse but you’ll be turned away from crossing, possibly detained, and probably barred from future entries for life.

I hate to say it, but if you’re white you'll probably have an uneventful crossing. But there’s absolutely no guarantee of that.

Border agents also get especially cagey if you’re travelling to work. They seem to interpret the word “business” as meaning you’re going to overstay your visa and try to work illegally. I had an incredibly complicated conversation at a crossing a decade ago because the agent didn’t seem to know what a TRADE SHOW was and gave me the third degree.

I have some family that’s been travelling as tourists or with green cards and they reported zero issues with them or people travelling around them.

Why don’t you post them here and advertise the links on your instagram page instead?

I have not. I’ve seen crypto be highjacked by scammers and grifters who spew a lot of pseudo-technical nonsense and try to hype their business that doesn’t exist. I’ve seen coins come and go after they’ve been successfully pumped and dumped.

But I’ve never seen crypto solve a real problem.

The idea behind a blockchain is great and the list of pros is long. But… still haven’t seen it implemented to do anything useful.

I would like crypto to solve a problem.

Like your suggestion - could crypto help solve famine? How, exactly? Crypto isn’t something you sprinkle on a problem to fix it. It’s a very fixed set of technical specifications. So how can that be used to solve famine? Is famine caused by the lack of a publicly accessible ledger that requires proof of work? Or is famine caused by inadequate logistics and local politics? How does crypto help us get freighters of grain from Ukraine to Sudan? How does it offload that grain and see that it’s transferred onto rail and trucks to reach people in need? How will it ensure warlords and corrupt officials don’t redirect that aid to their own interests?

It had a rough night, too. It’ll show up eventually

A comms blackout isn’t a prelude to an invasion by the Trade Federation.

It’s just DNS. It’s always DNS.

I think it was the FDA, but with this administration I think every one of them is for sale.

Be a little bit evil. You know, as a treat.

Vote early, but vote once, please!

I’m in the same boat. I like what the NDP has to say most of the time, but sadly that’s not the kind of election we’re having this time around.

I can help build the trebuchet.

Hang on. Ezra was the adult in the room??

Did not have that on my bingo card.

The housing crisis started over 30 years ago. The entirety of government gets to own this one.

You can also have fun with that one.

“I’m not racist, but why is the receipt printer at the self checkout always so low?”

“I’m not racist, but how come there’s no hardware stores close by?”

Let em spin their wheels trying to figure out what’s racist in a bland question.

Go back to learning how to not drop trophies, J.D. I think foreign policy is a little out of reach atm.

And that ocean is preferably on a planet other than Earth.
