What readers support microformats?

Here's a few! https://archive.org/details/iwc-austin-2020-social-readers

Social readers are a step up from traditional subscribe-only readers. Schema is fine for google indexing, but there's so much more that's possible!

Well @curtisjudd, @EposVox, and @GeraldUndone have all convinced me to get the zoom F6.

Decided I wanted a good recorder to go with my new microphone.

After you tweeted that I went and looked it up, and I think this is the answer to getting good audio for livestreaming from the ATEM Mini Pro *while also* feeding into a Zoom/Skype call and routing that call back into the ATEM. Gonna give that a shot!

Um…

I mean all the SI units were redefined last year anyway so why not 🤷‍♂️ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_redefinition_of_the_SI_base_units

Also… water is everything. When does rain become sleet and snow? Near zero. When do puddles freeze? Near zero. When do roads become icy? Near zero. C. Always C. What’s “hot” out? To some, 70F is hot. Others, 80. Or 90. Or 100. Subjective.

okay new scale:

0° = freezing point of water
100° = 130°F (approx highest recorded temperature)

Best of both C and F.

Metric or Imperial. Which one is better and why? State your case

I dunno though.

0 = jacket
10 = sweater
20 = room temp
30 = hot day

Those are pretty straight forward.

fwiw I was determined to switch to Celsius a few years ago, and actually set all my devices to it. I lasted about 8 months, in a temperature range from 10-36, and concluded that Fahrenheit is more expressive and switched back.

Caleb, usually I agree with you. But this time I have to say “everyone is entitled to their own opinion… unless they’re wrong” 😂 Celsius is logical. 0°C=freezing H2O and 100°C=boiling, vs 32°F/212°F. 0F and 100F mean nothing.

oh no. Celsius is only logical for water and science. For communicating with people about livable temperature ranges Fahrenheit is much more expressive!

Maybe I'm more sensitive to smaller temperature changes, cause for me the difference between 70°F and 80°F is huge, and that's just 21°C-26°C

Also... Celsius.

0° = freezing water
100° = boiling water
20° = room temperature

Such nice, easy numbers to remember.

I'm all for metric for everything except temperature. That 0-100 only works for water. Fahrenheit does better at expressing temperature ranges that humans live in. e.g. "50s" (sweaters), "70s" (comfortable), "90s" (too hot).

@aaronpk haha we're missing each others points in this discussion. You're frustrated about a specific feature and I'm trying to hint about the liberty part in Free Libre and Open Source software ^^

I guess what I mean is I would rather put my energy into advocating for open standards than open source

Nah, I'm just not really interested in getting into a much smaller community for a hobby that has nothing to do with software. The resources available for Adobe/Davinci/FCPX far outstrip any of the open source apps.

@aaronpk I didn't mean for replacing it today, more like a strategy for the long run. I personally am trying to get rid of most of the proprietary software I'm using. Installed my own Jitsi server two days ago for example.

I dunno, if anything I'd probably switch to Davinci Resolve, at least the basic version is free.

@aaronpk ever tried Kdenlive? I know it's not as powerful and feature rich as Adobe Premiere but it's often good enough for the more simple things and it's free software.

oof somehow I suspect I would just have a million other problems with that. I'm sure it's fine for straightforward stuff, but if this clip is confusing Premiere of all things...

Also the best thing I’ve ever done in the history of the channel is setting up a dedicated thumbnail station.

It’s no kidding saved HOURS of work and allowed me to increase quality by being able to control more of the process.

I'd love to see a studio tour at some point, sounds like you have a pretty nice workflow set up!

Do we really need API access to twitter?

If Twitter didn't have API access I wouldn't be tweeting. Every tweet I post is first posted to my website, which sends a copy to Twitter

Phone in your left pocket or right pocket?

Also do you keep it in your pocket by itself or with other items like keys or wallet?

this feels like one of those "what street did you grow up on" tweets to fish out security answers from ppl

iPad Pro owners. I’ve never owned an iPad before and I need advice on whether I should go for the bigger one, or is 11” enough?

Get the smaller one! I had the 12.9 for a hot second and I couldn't stand that it was as big as a regular laptop.
