The easiest tool is MakeMKV. But you’ll often encounter opportunities for efficiency (eg stereo DTSHD to FLAC) as well as requirements to convert* for hardware compatibility. That’s where ffmpeg and MKVToolNix are good secondary tools for customizing the remux contents.
*Not transcoding. Rather, lossless formet 1 -> lossless format 2.
Why would Greece, like any other net importer of IP, care about this any more than it historically has? Could the sudden change in focus be at the behest of a foreign country? Really jogs the noggin
You know that quote by Gabe Newell that gets posted all the time in this comm? The perceptive one that we all like to treat as the end of the matter?
Well its truth is matched only by its extraordinary naivete. IP interests are not going to invest in competitive service delivery. They are going to invest in technical solutions that remove the need for competitive service delivery altogether. Only once the high-margin options are exhausted will they relent, and start the hard work of building something value-for-money. Doing the right thing is a last resort.
Nothing surpsises me about a single small sectional interest (football copyright) being able to wreak such havoc and inequity on a whole nation. Italian standards of governance are a joke.
One of the best YT lectures on censorship I’ve come across is Ada Palmer’s “Why We Censor: from the Inquisition to the Internet”. It lays out the universal nature of such regimes, including their slapdash conception and setup, and the arbitrary and indiscriminate targeting they engage in thanks to how co-optable they are.
Latuff created his dopey comic because he knows his left-wing audiences want confirmation of their political biases. There’s nothing wrong with that. We all seek it on occasion. But what crimes the US is and is not guilty of has virtually no bearing on the fact that 19 muslim men literally took up box cutters against passenger airliners as a profession of their faith. The hijackers didn’t care about bin Laden’s politics, they saw an opportunity to kill infidels and they took it. They certainly didn’t care about Iran Contra or Mosadegh or fucking Halliburton profiteering, and they certainly didn’t become fundamentalists because of those things.
The wikipedia links are stunningly impertinent. The charts contexually lame. Muslim fundamentalism is the cause of the 9/11 attacks; no ackchually-tier insistence on proximate versus ultimate cause is necessary.
9/11 has nothing to do with the US overthrow of foreign governments. The US didn’t make bin Laden into what he became, bin Laden did. The guy was an egomaniac bedazzled by his own bullshit. The notion that the attacks were reeeaaally about oil access or regime change or economic disparity as opposed to bloodyminded religious zealotry is a lie.

In terms ot total data moved, I have 2.4TiB up on a Star Trek full season pack, for a ~35 ratio. That torrent’s been around for years and I suspect won’t die for many years yet. Oldest seeded torrent would be about 8 years.
This is behind NAT, 12mbits upstream.
Notifications are overrated. I turn them off for the bulk of apps.
Devote one or two small time windows each day for life admin. Outside those windows it shouldn’t be seen or heard.
