Let’s play a game of “Fortunately, Unfortunately“. Respond the previous post (the first comment below this post) by replying this post (not the previous post!)

I’ll start with: “I found this website.“

Back in February we are tasked to make a writing about our most memorable moments in our school, a poem of such, some religious writing I can only translate as “musing”, or a comic. These will be put on a little “student’s sketch” book alongside our yearbook.

On mine, I added a picture of a stickman which represents myself, which doesn’t help the already very long text written in the smallest (while still legible) and most compact font I can find on Docs, especially since we’ve been asked to use a margin of a whopping 1.5”.

They actually kept it on the book, making my writing the only one that has a picture on it (and also one of 5 that’s written in English*). If only the editor does the same thing with the formatting…

*not counting comics, with them it’s 1 out of 7)

This über-compressed video file uses state-of-the-art codecs.

With it, you can fit 10 of them into a single ZIP disk.

If only most video players can read them…

Is YouTube taking out the 480p resolution? I’ve been using it for a long time now and it makes me sad if they remove it

One of my habits I like to do is walking/running around randomly while speaking what’s currently on my mind as if I’m making a YouTube video/streaming

(responds chat member from my mumbling about why I hate Audacity 3.x) Gilbert, use Tenacity.

I did use Tenacity once, but I didn’t use it a lot since it doesn’t save Audacity 2 project files, which is what I want really; it’s more robust.

Also, I found it to be as unstable than Audacity 3, so that’s more reason why I don’t use it often.

On the topic of project files, in my experience, Audacity 3 projects like to corrupt themselves. When Audacity tells something like “the disk is full” even though it’s not, it’s game over for that project. Any attempt for recovery is futile; I’ve tried several and none worked. I had so many projects lost like that and I’m just fed up with Audacity 3 now.

I think the problem is with the filesystem, because when I tried to delete the file, the OS complains about some IO error or something. Probably because I’m storing my projects in an external hard drive formatted with NTFS. I’ve considered changing it to exFAT, but I had to eat some brave pills for that since there’s 800 GBs worth of files and I don’t have another hard drive as a buffer in case something goes wrong.

(responds chat member) Gilbert, why not use EXT4?

So I can read it from Windows. Sure, I use Linux, but the others use Windows and that’s not changing anytime soon.
