Does anyone test its completeness, especially for the older date? Also, i can't seem to be able to download the actual data (only the matadata), it says "Files marked with [lock icon] are not available for download." at htt

I still click and drag scroll bar frequently. It's faster, easier to fine control the position (especially useful when you want to toggle between two or more positions). To me, all three ways to scroll (scrollwheel, auto-scroll, draggi

Oh yeah, ther storage definitely is relatively more famous. I personally knew Hitachi first by their elevators/lifts.

I honestly think Hitachi is well-known even for average people (not for IT division though). Not Sony level for sure, but isn't exactly niche. But maybe it's just my bias too.

Your point makes no sense. Yesterday's UX teams were making decisions for you too. It's not like he can customize the UI in the 2012 version of Music app. He just by chance liked it like that.

My pet peeve about album cover art is digital music distributors padding non-square covers with white margins. They look like shit in almost all the UIs that don't have a white background.

What? It looks almost exactly like what OP shows: https://i.imgur.com/AFvhdNB.png (Except the "it becomes smaller when pausing" part, of course) I'm not saying it's bad and IMO it's fine, just that

The site manager of a dedicated FTP client can do more than just save an address. It can save multiple accounts within the same site, have different IPs and auto rotate, have different profiles about speed limit, thread limit, listing metho

It's not really comparable. The default side-by-side view most of FTP graphical client use is ciritial and almost essential for any semi-serious use with FTP that is beyond just copying a few files. I do agree that most of people only

In the golden age of FTP there are plenty of great proprietary clients. Of of my mind I can think of (for Windows) FlashFXP, FTPRush, CuteFTP, SmartFTP, and so on.

Not OP, but I pretty much only know two effects: Baader–Meinhof effect and Streisand effect. So I guess the answer for knowing this particular one is just that it is famous.

Cool video as usual. I do have a question from the other side though: what about the concerns of "too good" products making workers losing their jobs or companies losing too much profit to operate, as mentioned in that movie? Of c

He was replying to stevenhuang, not you directly. stevenhuang said "Reencoding the same input file as h264 again but using FFmpeg defaults would probably yield similar file size reductions." So, it looks to me he was trying to ref

My original comment is about his experiment can't prove H.265 is better than H.264 (and I think that's what he wanted to show). Of course modern video codecs can compress video very well regardless if the input is "unchanged

Yes, I have spent hundreds of hours in comparing video encoder results, but that's beside the point. One don't need to have done that to be able to tell your experiment is flawed. All you have is literally one datapoint, 970kbps h

> Not really sure why this is so unbelievable No one is saying that. Everyone knows H265 is better than H264. Just saying your number is meaningless without either fixing the bitrate or the quality.

Without at least some semi-objective compassions on the "visual quality", your data is meaningless. Like, how can you tell crf23 of x264 is closer to your x265-x265 version than, say, a crf24 x264 one? As a rule of thumb, x265 wo

When paired with mountain, I'd say blue is more accurate. 青山 is a fixed term (not quite "idiom" but you get the idea) originated from Chinese.

It looks a lot of overheads for something that is supposed to be helpful for the environment. Why not just donate the equivalent of 1-year amount of your [whatever event-triggered actions] directly to one of these Reforestation projects? It
