by Vasil KolevThrough the anime forums there can be seen a lot of reactions to the interview from last night (you can view the recording here). A lot of uproar was a consequence of me saying that the anime people gather from time to time to drink (like it’s not true :) ). As usual, there are two kinds of people – the ones that make things happen, and the ones that haven’t ever done anything, and just whine and do stupid things. The nincompoops are a lot in this world, if I start listening to them, I won’t have time for anything else :)
In the evening we were again in Deep down (without a projection this time), and I’m thinking to ask them next time to tune their audio equipment, there are some strange problems in it, and I’m pretty sure that we’ll be playing our own music next time.
I spent most of the time explaining and showing some stuff from my debian to Tifa, who is the next one who liked used linux, and has only it on it’s workstation – and she has the desire to learn, and copes with tit pretty well :) Whomever wants can whine that linux is not for the desktop, we’re using it and don’t really care :)
And I found at least a firewire cable, borrowed a controller from Zhoro, downloaded one of the lecture movies from the camera, and now I’m encoding it (I found a better coded, it will be around 700MB with great quality). Tomorrow I’ll be uploading it ..
(Delian has forgotten to give me the cassette from 14th, so the scary lecture with Alexander Shopov will be showing up later :) ).
(and the last thing on the topic – I’m encoding it with /home/vasil/vid/FFMpeg-20050311/ffmpeg -i dvgrab-001.dv -vcodec msmpeg4v2 -deinterlace -b 1024 -s 640×480 -acodec mp2 encoded.avi , I’m writing it here, because I’ll probably forget it).
