ASS (Advanced Substation Alpha)
Why is that not ASA? Or even ASSA.
Because they knew exactly what they were doing, obviously.
Because substation alpha is SSA so they just reversed it.
Because it’s funny.
When I took a geometry test in eighth grade, I got a point deducted because I wrote ASS instead of SSA (side-side-angle) when calculating angles and side lengths of a triangle. Still got the right answer though
Oh, wonderful, teachers who punish kids for being kids and/or making mistakes.
In a “show your workings” questions it makes sense.
There’s no difference between SSA and ASS in that context so it’s pointless to punish a student for that
Right in the nostalgia! Happiness is a warm genlock…
Fantastic sub format for anime.
I always chuckle when Jellyfin shows subtitles as “Full ASS”.
Never half ass two things. Full ass 1 thing
For some reason, ASS files cause stuttering on my Jellyfin Server living on a NAS

I’m so old and tired, this isn’t even funny anymore. I’ll have to explain to some junior engineer about ASS. Then management will learn about this term “ass”, and use it incorrectly at every possible opportunity. Then when no one can explain ASS, I end up being “the ass guy.”
ffmpeg command lines are straight up black magic.
Anyone who understands them is not to be trusted.
It’s even worse than tar.
GNU tar is easy and straight-forward.
It’s also completely incompatible with any other Unix, but then, what difference does it make is nobody can use them?
A more complex but more commonly used program is
rsync
rsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive
is treated differently thanrsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive
which is different thanrsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive/
which is different thanrsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive/
It’s a great tool for making copies onto drives, even servers. But man you have to double check how each folder path is laid out, otherwise it’ll write the files of one folder to the main drive, unorganized.
I recommend
--dry-run
and reading the stdout with human readable output-h
. And dont use the--delete
flag if you dont know what will happen 😓
If they know Regex, assume you are in Sarumans tower and held captive until a hawk comes in.
Writing regex is easy.
Reading it again after a couple of weeks…
It’s a write only language
Tbh the frequent pain from needing to read it again often happens because it was so hard to write correctly that it misbehaves on some data and you need to adjust it.
ffmpeg commands are one of the best use cases for ChatGPT
The biggest pain in the ass I’ve dealt with was using a directshow lib to implement flash on a new camera we were supporting for a desktop application. Working with a device graph and pins is beyond frustrating. We’re porting functionality to the Web and my dev working on the camera just needed to call capture image to trigger the flash.

Wtf? Is datascope funny or am I missing something?
This guy doesn’t get the joke, everyone point and laugh!
You scrolled too far. 😆 Same as me, but I scrolled back up.
Pages are fractional now?
Man, I really gotta get with the times…
