282·2 days agoMaduro’s VP has expressed a willingness to cooperate with Trump
What makes you think that? Is your news diet limited to Fox/CNN/NPR/etc?
FYI here is a translation of her speech, and here is the video of it.
Her subsequent statement (on Instagram, in English, and which some media is describing as “conciliatory” while selectively quoting from it) can be read here. When you read it in full you can see she is not recanting her earlier statement and is clearly still not distancing herself from Maduro. She is (consistently with him) imploring the US to follow international law and respect Venezuelan sovereignty.

Oddly it has only 45 people watching currently, and was under 200 viewers every time I was watching it yesterday 🤔
1·4 days agoi thought the photo in this thumbnail looked familiar, and then realized it’s because I just saw a post from her a minute ago - one of many linking to a very old video of a large crowd in Venezuela falsely claiming that it shows people celebrating the US kidnapping Maduro today.
14·16 days agoBut you can turn off sealed sender messages from anyone, so they’d have to already be a trusted contact
The setting to mitigate this attack (so that only people who know your username can do it, instead of anybody who knows your number) is called Who Can Find Me By Number. According to the docs, setting it to nobody requires also setting Who Can See My Number to nobody. Those two settings are both entirely unrelated to Signal’s “sealed sender” thing, which incidentally is itself cryptography theater, btw.
15 minutes of it are available here: https://archive.org/details/insidececot
You can literally turn off read receipts in signal
But you can’t turn off delivery receipts, which is what this attack uses.
those best practices don’t mitigate the attack in this paper
4·16 days agoYou think the Trump admin tells Larry Ellison what to do?
They just need to say they are using the archive for AI training data. Then it’s legal.
yt-dlp can download from thousands of sites, including streamable. you can install it on android using termux.

that post is now deleted, but you can see their modlog here
3·22 days agoFor me it’s only 4x they’re charging for (so far) which is admittedly approaching ludicrous speed… but nonetheless, charging for it is awfully petty.

I’m curious if you succeeded with this approach here - have you gotten your LLM to produce a bash function which you can use without needing to understand how to specify an ffmpeg filename pattern yet?
btw, if want to try learning the old-fashioned way, have a look at
man ffmpeg-formatswhere you can find perhaps-useful information like this:segment, stream_segment, ssegment Basic stream segmenter. This muxer outputs streams to a number of separate files of nearly fixed duration. Output filename pattern can be set in a fashion similar to image2, or by using a "strftime" template if the strftime option is enabled. "stream_segment" is a variant of the muxer used to write to streaming output formats, i.e. which do not require global headers, and is recommended for outputting e.g. to MPEG transport stream segments. "ssegment" is a shorter alias for "stream_segment". Every segment starts with a keyframe of the selected reference stream, which is set through the reference_stream option. Note that if you want accurate splitting for a video file, you need to make the input key frames correspond to the exact splitting times expected by the segmenter, or the segment muxer will start the new segment with the key frame found next after the specified start time. The segment muxer works best with a single constant frame rate video. Optionally it can generate a list of the created segments, by setting the option segment_list. The list type is specified by the segment_list_type option. The entry filenames in the segment list are set by default to the basename of the corresponding segment files. See also the hls muxer, which provides a more specific implementation for HLS segmentation. Options The segment muxer supports the following options: [...]From the
image2section, here is how the filename pattern works:sequence Select a sequence pattern type, used to specify a sequence of files indexed by sequential numbers. A sequence pattern may contain the string "%d" or "%0Nd", which specifies the position of the characters representing a sequential number in each filename matched by the pattern. If the form "%d0Nd" is used, the string representing the number in each filename is 0-padded and N is the total number of 0-padded digits representing the number. The literal character '%' can be specified in the pattern with the string "%%". If the sequence pattern contains "%d" or "%0Nd", the first filename of the file list specified by the pattern must contain a number inclusively contained between start_number and start_number+start_number_range-1, and all the following numbers must be sequential. For example the pattern "img-%03d.bmp" will match a sequence of filenames of the form img-001.bmp, img-002.bmp, ..., img-010.bmp, etc.; the pattern "i%%m%%g-%d.jpg" will match a sequence of filenames of the form i%m%g-1.jpg, i%m%g-2.jpg, ..., i%m%g-10.jpg, etc.And btw, the
ffmpeg-formatsmanual does also include examples:Examples • Remux the content of file in.mkv to a list of segments out-000.nut, out-001.nut, etc., and write the list of generated segments to out.list: ffmpeg -i in.mkv -codec hevc -flags +cgop -g 60 -map 0 -f segment -segment_list out.list out%03d.nut • Segment input and set output format options for the output segments: ffmpeg -i in.mkv -f segment -segment_time 10 -segment_format_options movflags=+faststart out%03d.mp4 • Segment the input file according to the split points specified by the segment_times option: ffmpeg -i in.mkv -codec copy -map 0 -f segment -segment_list out.csv -segment_times 1,2,3,5,8,13,21 out%03d.nut • Use the ffmpeg force_key_frames option to force key frames in the input at the specified location, together with the segment option segment_time_delta to account for possible roundings operated when setting key frame times. ffmpeg -i in.mkv -force_key_frames 1,2,3,5,8,13,21 -codec:v mpeg4 -codec:a pcm_s16le -map 0 \ -f segment -segment_list out.csv -segment_times 1,2,3,5,8,13,21 -segment_time_delta 0.05 out%03d.nut In order to force key frames on the input file, transcoding is required. • Segment the input file by splitting the input file according to the frame numbers sequence specified with the segment_frames option: ffmpeg -i in.mkv -codec copy -map 0 -f segment -segment_list out.csv -segment_frames 100,200,300,500,800 out%03d.nut • Convert the in.mkv to TS segments using the "libx264" and "aac" encoders: ffmpeg -i in.mkv -map 0 -codec:v libx264 -codec:a aac -f ssegment -segment_list out.list out%03d.ts • Segment the input file, and create an M3U8 live playlist (can be used as live HLS source): ffmpeg -re -i in.mkv -codec copy -map 0 -f segment -segment_list playlist.m3u8 \ -segment_list_flags +live -segment_time 10 out%03d.mkvIt is actually possible to figure out how to do this and many other ffmpeg tasks even without internet access :)
