[07:40] Techrights-sec what kind of changes to patents or copyright are piggybacked into the

[07:40] Techrights-sec $1 trillion "infrastructure" bill? I'm not finding any details about the bill.

[07:40] Techrights-sec they are throwing money at developing a "tool to assist transportation authorities in identifying, detecting, protec

[07:41] Techrights-sec ting against, responding to, and recovering from cyber incidents."

[07:41] Techrights-sec That tool already exists : https://linuxmint.com/download.php

[07:42] schestowitz-TR maybe Microsoft needs bailing out again; that hololens thing was put on the ice

[08:39] Techrights-sec A whole article without mentioning Linux even once:

[08:39] schestowitz-TR or GNU ;-) "The revolution will not ve televised" [just demonised or co-opted]

[08:42] Techrights-sec Indeed. The media really goes through contortions to avoid mentioning either.

[19:49] Techrights-sec The text part is short:

[19:49] Techrights-sec gemini.techrights.org/2021/11/16/free-software-and-privacy-fud/

[19:49] Techrights-sec the video link downloads a file which matches the checksum but

[19:49] Techrights-sec crashes jsut after 5 minutes (out of 18+ forecast)

[19:49] Techrights-sec The md5 checksum matches, and the file is 56M, but it won't play all the way

[19:50] Techrights-sec through.

[19:50] Techrights-sec in VLC.

[19:50] Techrights-sec In audacity, it can be imported but there is only 5:30

[19:53] schestowitz-TR oh, shit

[19:53] schestowitz-TR I've just checked

[19:53] schestowitz-TR even the video before processing, the original, has this issue

[19:53] schestowitz-TR for some reason the sound stops

[19:53] Techrights-sec Can it be repaired?

[19:53] schestowitz-TR doubt it

[19:57] Techrights-sec What kind of HD and File System was the original on?

[19:57] schestowitz-TR ext4/webm, I think the recording software or noisetorch might be at fault

[19:58] Techrights-sec Do smarttools diagnostics give any warnings?

[20:09] Techrights-sec I'm reprocessing / trimming it with ffmpeg. I'll be able to check in a few

[20:09] Techrights-sec minutes if it works to pull off the first part. If so, then it might

[20:09] Techrights-sec be possible to simply cut out the break.

[20:10] schestowitz-TR I still don't know what caused it, but I did sense some oddities before recording, hope I can avoid it in the future

[20:17] Techrights-sec ffmpeg did not work on the first try. the video is there but the audio is not.

[20:30] schestowitz-TR original webm: no audio

[20:30] schestowitz-TR mp4 no audio

[20:30] schestowitz-TR final webm no audio

[20:30] schestowitz-TR I am pretty certain it's not a disk issue, maybe I will install some visual volume indicator if it happens a second

[20:30] schestowitz-TR time

[20:32] schestowitz-TR in the pasy I had much longe videos, about an hour or more, with no audio at all, I worked hard to avoid making the

[20:32] schestowitz-TR same mistake again
