Okay, thanks. I guess it’s not possible at the moment then.

I know that lossy normally lessens the image quality in the compression process, but Curtail has two options:

Lossless mode: Compresses the file by removing unnecesary data that does not affect image quality; thus reducing file size. Lossy mode: Compresses the file much further by lowering the visual quality of the image; thus reducing the file size but looking a bit worse.

After using the lossless mode, I’ve personally done very thorough image comparisons to see if there was any discernible difference between the original file and the compressed file. I could not find any visual difference.

In Curtails own words on their site “It supports both lossless and lossy compression modes with an option to whether keep or not metadata of images.”

It just looks like “Loo wan tee” to me.

Edit: Actually, just read the article, and considering the name Luanti is a mix between the Finnish word “creation” and the LUA programming language; and I’m preeetty sure LUA is pronounced “loo-wah” or “lew-ah”, I think the Luanti pronunciation is more likely to be “loo-wun-tee”.

In that case, what I mean to say is that I want a program that compresses the video in a way that is not perceptible to the eye, while also preserving metadata and reducing the overall file size.

I’m not sure why “lossless” is not the right term, because that’s the term that curtail itself uses within the app. Is the term misleading? The app is designed for photos, not videos. It compresses each photo without losing any quality, and slightly decreases the overall file size without losing metadata. I want a program that can do the same thing with videos.

The console UI is just the Steam Big Picture mode but unlike desktop Linux is loaded into at startup. Although loading it at start up can also be enabled on Linux desktops even if you aren’t using SteamOS.

And what FUD are you spreading? They collect hardly any personal data. In fact, the amount of data they don’t collect is one of the complaints some people who came from YouTube have for Odysee: They’re used to the sheer amount of statistics YouTube provides them from their viewers.

Done! I contributed $10 a few days ago. Hope to give some more after my next payment.

I just find them annoying. They won’t stop spawning in my base-area when I would rather see them travelling out in the wilderness. It’s improved slightly now that they drop the ominous bottle instead of immediately giving you Bad Omen.

I know that. It’s not entirely true that it’s open-source, since it does not actually have an open-source license, but it’s true to an extent that the source code is technically out there and anyone who doesn’t work for CDPR can (illegally) use it. The comment was only meant as a joke, I wasn’t trying to be real serious about it.

Reading SuperTux Advance made me imagine a Game Boy Advance demake of SuperTux, that would actually be so cool.

Edit: Oh, it seems I was half correct. It appears to be a re-imagining of the original game in a GBA art style.

I still haven’t tried it, but I’ve heard how great Veloren apparently is. It’s an MMO voxel game that takes inspiration from Zelda: Breath of the Wild and is written in Rust.

It’s funny because it’s true. And it’s funny because people think you’re trolling.

Based on how Wikipedia explains it in your link, I think the feeling I get from liminal spaces is similar, but not the exact same thing as what I described. Liminal spaces often elicit feeling often from an unexpected lack of something that should usually be there. For example, being in mega-sized stadium all by yourself, where there would usually be thousands of people at once, or walking around your school yard ultra early in the morning when nobody is around. This certainly produces a similar feeling to what I described in my post, but different, and I can still get the feeling in busy or loud environments, it’s just much rarer, and I haven’t experienced it enough to be able to tell exactly what sets it off in busy or noisy environments.

I got it once in the last year when I visited the city of Melbourne, Australia. I arrived at Southern Cross railway station. I had to wait for a friend to pick me up from there. I stood out of the way and leaned against a wall right beside a Hungry Jacks (fast food franchise), and the feeling came over me when I observed my surroundings, despite being in a very busy and noisy environment. This is kind of an opposite situation to the feeling you get from liminal spaces.

The scuba diving sounds like it would do it for me, for sure. Even though I’ve never done it before and might not be able to because of my asthma, just imagining it (especially if I’m by myself), slightly gives me that feeling (I’m pretty good at visualising environments). That sounds like it would be fun.

I’m a Christian and believe in the existence of spirit, so I agree this is probably something spiritual.

On a side note, I prefer the world border method of having an ocean surrounding the world with an invisible wall, since it makes the world feel like it’s actually small. In Java, you can see the world continue to generate outside the border, which, when shrunk to make the world smaller, gives you the sense that you’re simply trapped in a small section of a world and can never fully explore it. In legacy, you know you can explore every nook and cranny.

The problem is that the world generation also needs to be tweaked to make up for the loss in world size on Bedrock and Java for it to actually work well. For example, in Java edition, you can shrink the world size by setting how far out the world border is, but you are going to miss out on a heap ton of game content and biomes, because that game content isn’t designed to be spread apart in such a small space.

You see, the legacy console versions were really good at nicely spreading across all the in-game content such as biomes, items and structures across the limited world. As a result, the biomes were always so much smaller then on PC, because the world itself needed to be more tightly condensed. The game would always try to get at least one of each structure at a minimum, and most if not all of the biomes in there. The other versions simply don’t have this, and most modders aren’t going to have the motivation to implement different generation for their limited world size mod for every new version of the game that released.

I understand, but that’s not what my experience with ASMR is like. I don’t get anything like butterflies from it, I just get enjoyment and often an almost “tickling” sensation in my ears. But it’s completely separate to the feeling I’m talking about. And besides that, I’m capable of getting the feeling mentioned in the post from my environment in a noisy environment, it’s just uncommon.

I really want to visit and hike in New Zealand (they call it trekking). My Mum came from the North Island. I’ve even considered the possibility of moving there before.
