  • Subtitles are not always simple text files in the source. They can come in various formats like SRT, WebVTT, Teletext, and VobSub—if they are present at all.

    To integrate them into WebM, you must first determine if they exist, ensure they have the correct language tags (and tag them properly if they don’t), then extract them, convert them into a format compatible with the player, and finally remux them alongside the video and audio. This process can easily fail in an automated workflow if any of these conditions are unmet or if the subtitle format is incompatible.

    Given this complexity, it’s understandable why many choose to avoid the effort rather than addressing whether WebM supports subtitles.

    I am not defending anyone, but the process of it all makes it understandable, at least for me.




  • It could definitely be stress-related, especially if you had a particularly bad night of sleep before this started.

    When you don’t sleep well, your body can reset its cortisol production cycle. Cortisol—the hormone tied to stress and alertness—typically starts rising in the early hours of the morning, around 3–4 a.m., as part of a normal circadian rhythm.

    But if you’re under even mild or subconscious stress, that spike can happen earlier or be stronger than usual, causing you to wake up prematurely and feel too alert to fall back asleep.

    It’s like your body’s stuck in a “high alert” mode even if nothing obvious is triggering it.

    Could be the birds that have already been mentioned as well, I am no expert, nor medical trained, but this reason is more common than you might think when waking up early. It’s the same reason you might find yourself waking before the alarm when you really need to be on time, like before going on vacation and you cannot miss your flight.

    Here is a link to one of many in regards to sleep and cortisol

  • that one was made in Russia according to the printed text…and in October 2022 if I read the date stamp correctly? and LEDVANCE is a company name, not product name, it was splitted out of OSRAMS LED division in 2016.

    Ledvance GmbH, headquartered in Garching bei München, Germany, is a general lighting and smart home technology company. It was established in 2016 as a spin-off from Osram Licht AG. Since April 2018, Ledvance has been wholly owned by Chinese lighting company MLS.[3] …

    In April 2015, it was announced that Osram would divest its general lighting lamp business, which accounted for just over one-third of its workforce. In June 2015, the supervisory board of Osram Licht AG agreed to the divestment of their lamp division with products such as LED lamps, halogen lamps, and compact fluorescent lamps.[4][5] This divested division has been operating as a legally independent company under the name Ledvance since April 2016.

    At the end of July 2016, Osram announced that Ledvance would be sold for more than €500 million[8] to a Chinese consortium consisting of investor IDG Capital, LED packaging manufacturer MLS, and Yiwu. The sale was completed on 3 March 2017, with economic effect as of 1 March 2017.[9][10][11] Due to the takeover, MLS gained distribution networks in Europe and the United States.[12][13] Since April 2018, MLS has been the sole owner of Ledvance

    not sure you can make OSRAM responsible for what a Chinese company does in Russia?

    edit: should have updated the text on thought, but perhaps not the first priority or something considered important in Russia.




  • does gentoos emerge --rageclean count?

    [–unmerge, -C WARNING: This action can remove important packages! Removes all matching packages following a counter governed by CLEAN_DELAY. This does no checking of dependencies, so it may remove packages necessary for the proper operation of your system. Its arguments can be atoms or ebuilds. For a dependency aware version of --unmerge, use --depclean or --prune. For a version with CLEAN_DELAY=0, use --rage-clean.

    (edit, added context from “man emerge”, rageclean mentioned the last sentence)








  • sorry if I misunderstood, but wasn’t his drive sas, and he needed to go to sata connections? this does that.

    sas hdd => sata controller connetions

    the converter is not the culprit, the drive needs a sata logo on the label for it to work the other way, which is mentioned on the sales page.

    if the drive had that logo or not is not mentioned as far as I can see

    (edit, thought it was OP replying at first, so changed that, and added requirements for the adapter)
