If you are a user of Kdenlive, did you ever try to use a playback speed different than 1? like 2 time speed for instance? In that case you may have heard glitchy audio. I think this is not a bug, but an implementation issue, I think Kdenlive should use timeline stretching audio scrubbing. It is a wide spread feature in modern video editors, a seemingly ubiquitous one. So much so that users can't spot that the feature is missing and just think that there is a bug. 1/2 #kdenlive #kde
It's a much needed feature for a modern video editor, and I think it should be considered as a priority since its addition could benefit Kdenlive and its user greatly. I opened a feature request here if you want more information: bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5… Maybe the feature already exist in MLT but I don't think so. Should we ask to implement it in MLT or could Kdenlive implement it on their side. If you know any app using MLT that has proper audio scrubbing, or have any info, let me know. 2/2
Hi, Right now, consumers like SDL2 or RtAudio support turning audio scrubbing on or off, but they don't offer a way to choose the type of audio scrubbing we want to use. From my experience, the typ...
that happens to me at regular speed I don’t need to change it to hear the audio glitches. Having that said, the final export does not reflect the glitches.
@Emmanuel Florac Trade deficits of several hundred billions of dollars, should be the least of the problems, of a nation that has forty one thousand, billion dollars of debt, don't you think so?
@Carter Braxton actually both are related. By having the dollar the world reserve currency, debt accumulation and trade deficit are unavoidable side effects. The world need dollars to trade, therefore they need extremely large amount of dollar-denominated assets in the form of US Treasury bills. There is no way around this.
@Emmanuel Florac You really do believe that, don't you? Trade deficits results in profits and loss, imports and exports between private entities. Government overspending causes national debts.
@Carter Braxton trade deficits mean that the US imports stuff and exports dollars. For people outside of US to accept these dollars, there must be something to buy back, denominated in dollars, or they wouldn't take them. The stuff they buy back is Treasury bills. Fractional reserve banking implies that in all exchanges, there's a bank as a third party (see the video). When the money used as vehicle is USD, that bank is, in last resort, the Fed.
@Emmanuel Florac Yes, accumilated deficits will add to national debts but in the context of modern US debt, it is hardly fair to place the lion's share on trade imbalances, as some are wont to do, when anyone paying attention can clearly see, that US debt is the product of uncontrolled spending by the US Congress.
@Carter Braxton sure, but OTOH this uncontrolled spending is necessary for the Empire to function... Dog chasing its tail. If the Congress stopped spending, then the USD would collapse and cease to be the world's reserve currency, and suddenly the inhabitants should rely on their own work only, because the influx of Chinese-made stuff would stop.
@Emmanuel Florac Yes, some of that rings true. However, I don't think that losing the USD as a reserve currency would hinder the US. The USD has been the reserve currency for many decades now and the people in charge have managed to wreck that presumed opportunity still.
No, I propose that the pressure would be off the American people and indeed, the people of the world if the USD was no longer a reserve currency. The US has become fat and lazy, a big welfare state in her own right but she does not have to linger in such stagnation. If she would give up her delusions of empire, perhaps, she could compete again. Perhaps, she could make goods and services available that others would seek.
No my friend on closer observance, one could make arguments as to why the USD as the world's reserve currency, may indeed, be an albatross around the necks of mankind, including the Americans themselves and a yoke to be cast aside.
@Carter Braxton yep, Steve Keen's definitely of the opinion that USD has been a boon but is now a hindrance to US welfare. A more neutral system such as the Bancor would probably be better for everyone in the long run.
@Emmanuel Florac Indeed, Americans don't know what's really good for them, do they? Here we have a whole world trying to fix them and they're like the half dead patient that refuses to take his/her medication.
Americans don't realize that having the dollar overthrown and actually accommodating BRICS, would do us much more good than harm. Of course the delusions of empire would have to be lost.

HUR publishes Russian military order, claims proof of Moscow increasing military footprint in #Armenia
#HUR published what it claimed was a #Russian army order to increase its military presence at a base in Armenia, two days after HUR's warning of such a move was denied by Yerevan.
HUR first made the claim on July 5, saying #Russia was increasing its forces at the Gyumri base to exert greater influence in the South #Caucasus and "destabilize the global security situation."

President Trump is ending the most ridiculous regulation in airport security history—that everyone has to take their shoes off every time they get on a plane because one time 24 years ago a Muslim terrorist hid a bomb in his sneakers.
#What Freedom of Speech? The United States was founded on the principle of freedom of speech. The Constitution, which called into existence a government of limited powers, did not delegate to the federal government the power to suppress criticism or to infringe on the natural, God-given right of freedom of speech. ----The regime simply starts having its military and paramilitary goons start arresting critics, disappearing them in terrorist confinement facilities, torturing them, and then killing them. Everyone else understands. No more criticism of the regime. Federal officials have long designed sophisticated ways to suppress speech in wide sectors of American society, such as the business, educational, banking, medical, and even the mainstream-media sectors. fff.org/2025/07/03/what-freedo…
Trump is threatening to employ the power of the federal government to destroy or severely harm an American citizen. And for what? For simply speaking out against Trump’s spending and debt bill. CEOs of universities, big corporations, banks, medical companies, and other establishments criticizing the policies of the federal government. The dole system and the regulated-economy system are very sophisticated devices that have succeeded in silencing them. They don’t dare to exercise freedom of speech, no matter what the First Amendment says.
This one didn’t have the body count of prior acts of multicultural outreach by France’s Arab conquerors. Muslims killed 17 at the offices of Charlie Hebdo and 130 in the synchronized attacks that included the Bataclan nightclub in Paris. The next year on Bastille Day, Tunisian Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel killed 84 in Nice with a truck. However, the age of the Annecy victims may cause this to stick in people’s minds. Eventually even a country as rotted through with leftist ideology as France starts to push back. Either that or it just dies.
Ah well, if we can choose, I'll opt for extinction then. After a little Arab invasion for exoticism. And before the extinction of the rest of the world's population who don't know how to do anything but destroy and annoy other animals.
"a little arab invasion" your wording is that of the already occupied!! musloids you deserve so they can finish you tools off... no one is coming to save your ass any longer
Would you prefer Europe to be overrun by uneducated obese people like the Americans? Except that here we have a certain notion of beauty and intelligence. To each his own.
Just because there's “socialist” in national socialism doesn't mean it's socialist. But to understand it, you have to know how to read. China calls itself “democratic” when in fact it's a dictatorship. The same goes for Russia. And you should stop drinking, you're a moron enough as it is, and what's more, you're always rambling on about the same thing (Human sub-shit).
As per letters sent to various countries yesterday, in addition to letters that will be sent today, tomorrow, and for the next short period of time, TARIFFS WILL START BEING PAID ON AUGUST 1, 2025.

#Dollar is collapsing The worst performance in 52 years sparks terror in the markets.
Shock and awe is being caused by the new plunge in the dollar, which has recorded its worst first-half performance in 52 years, bringing back memories of the Nixon era and the end of #BrettonWoods. By June, the #US currency plunged 10.7% against its major rivals and sparking scenarios of dramatic upheavals in the global economic order.

"#Mozilla's management is a #bug, not a #feature" "#Dominance does not equal #importance, nor is dominance the same as #relevance. The #snag at Mozilla is a #management layer that doesn't appear to understand what works for its #product nor which parts of it matter most to users." "Don't #blame the #app, and don't even blame the #programmers. That is, the ones who still have #jobs, after years of #engineer #layoffs. Don't even blame the whole #organization – blame the #management. Steven himself has pointed this out before, early in 2024. So have I. In 2023, I said that Mozilla was asleep at the wheel."
@ThePfromtheO, Mozilla has made the mistake of his life to sign a contract with the devil, selling it's soul.
A company that depends on the external financing of large corporations, in this case Google and also another advertising company, can be impossiblely independent.
This train has already left for Mozilla, being a mere Google pet which can't survive without the support from these investors.
receive money from advertisers and search engines when the user use these, it's another approach to create incommings, without the risk with investors imposing their conditions, here is #Vivaldi the one which impose conditions with this system, saving its independence.
@Catweazle "without the risk with investors imposing their conditions, here is Vivaldi the one which impose conditions with this system, saving its independence."
"#Mozilla has missed so many boats that it's not even funny to #catalog them, but sadly, I must." "Most of the #web runs on #advertising, as it has for 20-plus years. You might think Mozilla would, say, buy and integrate an #adblocker. Acquiring #adblocking #companies has been a thing for a #decade. Other #browsers integrate ad-blocking, and you don't even need something controversial like #Brave – for instance, #VivaldiBrowser has offered it for years. Many of the #team behind #Vivaldi previously made #Opera, and it #blocked #ads too. (Soon afterwards, the company sold it to a #Chinese group.) But no. Instead, Mozilla goes and buys an #ad firm and then removes its promise not to #sell your #data. Once again, it's as if the #leadership were actively trying to work out the worst direction to turn." "The #AI trend is a cult now for many. Whither Mozilla? Oh, it built a #bot into its docs #server in 2023, then promptly had to turn it off again. Its #chief product #officer was quite gung-ho about AI in early 2024. He left the company soon afterwards.
In 2024, Mozilla made more layoffs and announced it would invest in open source #AI. This year, Mozilla finally integrated a #vertical #tab bar into #Firefox and, you guessed it, built an AI #chatbot into it. You can, at least, turn it off."
"#Money is the problem. Not too little, but too much. Where there's #wealth, there's a natural #human desire to make more #wealth. Ever since #Firefox 1.0 in 2004, Firefox has never had to compete. It's been attached like a #mosquito to an #artery to the #Google #cash #firehose. #TheRegister noted it in 2007, and it made more the next year. We were dubious when Firefox turned #five." "And as for that #money — remember back in 2018? That's when #Google dropped "Don't be evil" as its #motto." "#Mozilla's #leadership is #directionless and #flailing because it's never had to do, or be, anything else. It's never needed to know how to make a #profit, because it never had to make a #profit. It's no wonder it has no real #direction or #vision or clue: it never needed them. It's role-playing being a #business." "Like we said, don't #blame the #app. You're still #better off with Firefox or a fork such as #Waterfox. #Chrome even #snoops on you when in #incognito mode, and as we #warned you, Google removed the APIs #adblocker #extensions used. You still get better #adblocking in #Firefox."

i am not a star wars person (as a kid i walked out of return of the jedi cuz gads) but boy is Andor good.
it's exactly the right thing for the moment, a sort of crash course on fascism and dissent. maybe for a generation who hadn't really been exposed to those ideas before. i wonder how many people who watch it end up w raoul vaneigem or reading about the black panthers, etc.
The reason is that truth a solid foundation where a person can stand much like Samuel Johnson kicking a rock to show reality exists. Without this base it is impossible to question or critique. We see this with the Texas Floods where government cutbacks could or could not have impacted whether the tragedy could have been averted. People can postulate weather machines with no need for evidence as only truth requires evidence. There is no my/your truth as there is only truth
TBH the real message is that you don’t need to revolve everything around the same few laser sword space wizards when you have a whole galaxy as your setting.
Star Wars has always been about fighting against fascism. The difference between Andor and the rest of the franchise is that Andor has painted a much more detailed picture of what the Empire is, how it works, and why it is still vulnerable despite all its power.
Starting to actually fill the rooms with stuff. RPG In A Box has a Steam Workshop where you can download assets! This little experiment is just going to be a free thing, so I'm not too worried about just downloading and using whatever. I'll probably have to develop my own models eventually but I'm terrible at it so I'm trying to avoid it for as long as possible lol. I also experimented a little bit with the item pickups, which seems actually extremely easy!
Now that everything is starting to come together a little bit more, I also have to say that I really like having the two tile high walls. They weren't looking too good in the beginning but seeing it like this is awesome.
Stopping anti-anxiety agents or antidepressants suddenly is a mistake. Sertraline withdrawal can cause "brain zaps." Is there a better way?

Folks, the Nobel nomination is non-news. It's not even his first, and as noted in this report on a previous one, there is literally zero vetting or quality control at that stage. Every year some clowns are nominated by other clowns. If you're one of the literally tens of thousands of eligible nominators, you're free to suggest any old murderbot for the prize.
It's the time of year when tech publications supposedly committed to offering readers how-to guidance and objective product reviews become full-time shills for Jeff Bezos
As always, it's buyer beware for tech stuff at Amazon. E.g., most laptops seem to be sold by no-name third parties and tech specs are sometimes wonky. There's a used Chromebook priced at $175 that hypes being "4K" on top of the page, then "4K ready" below that, and "1366x768" inside a dropdown.

It would be great if Murena could answer my question I sent months ago about how I can reset my password, as I accidentally deleted the current one in my password manager. And the Android launcher hasn't been updated in five months. Is there anything that can be done about this, or can I just forget about it?
That's bad. I wasn't able to create a ticket because I can access the help desk but not log in. Hence my question: Can Murena delete my password? I can also prove that I'm actually me via DM.

When Israel decided to go to full-scale war with Hezbollah last fall, it concluded the campaign in just seven weeks. The same pattern followed with Iran—its objectives were reportedly achieved in 12 days.
So why, despite nearly two years of relentless war and massive military superiority, has Israel failed to win in Gaza?
Unlike Hezbollah or Iran, which are far more powerful militarily, Hamas is a smaller, more localized force.

What Palestinian Resistance accomplishes right now is epic. It will write a new chapter on how the popular resistance, through the guerrilla, can defeat a professional (relentless execution machine) army in the most suffocating circumstances. 21 months of war against civilians is what #IOF has done. Palestinian Resistance carries out the most complicated attacks against (trained...) soldiers like the day one. None of the "goals" of israeli entity and army ever achieved. None.

Spain’s National Court on Tuesday launched a criminal investigation into Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Foreign Minister Israel Katz, and several senior military officials over their alleged involvement in war crimes and crimes against humanity, particularly Israel's attack last month on a humanitarian aid ship.

Probe alleges that Israeli forces used drones, tear gas, and carried out illegal detention of civilians in what it calls broader pattern of violations tied to ongoing conflict in Gaza - Anadolu Ajansı

I've known about this since 1981. I was 9 years old when I was first taught that the moon is moving away from Earth.
Are people just now figuring this out?
One thing I can tell you, had we had the Internet back in 1981 I wouldn't have posted a sensational blog post about something that I'm sure has been common knowledge since the invention of astronomy.
The Moon is further from Earth every year! Earth and the Moon have one of the most incredible cosmic links that we can observe from our planet. Thanks to
