@YiJiang'sEvilClone holy interlacing batman

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Yeah, no can do. Either the encoder is super bad at optimizing gifs or there's just too many colors here.

badp

maybe it just didn't deinterlace?

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

I don't think so

I'm quite sure this the source is 1080p, not 1080i

badp

because interlacing in gifs is... not common

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Hmmmmm

badp

See gif-explode.com/?explode=https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1722364/…

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Yeah, there is something odd going on there

Maybe its because I lowered the framerate from 24 to 15, and the encoder mashed frames together to compensate?

badp

perhaps. Maybe if you lowered to a multiple?

I like how smooth the gif is but...

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

I know, and the size is huge too

badp

try 12

...or try apng's, just to annoy anybody not using firefox :P

although apngs wouldn't make the framerate problem go away

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Hmmm, nope, there's still massive interlacing

FREE ~~EPILEPSY~~ APNG TEST

(afaik)

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

I can try making it generate a series of images and try to create a gif from that

Powerlord

Hmm, BrentalFloss's next Lyrics video is going to be Cave Story

badp

@Powerlord nice

Powerlord

Oh wait, I'm not supposed to reveal that.

badp

@Powerlord you never really were on his side.

Q: What are the minimum items I need to get from the Overworld to the End?

I'm planning to do a "speedrun" per say. Not really a speedrun, but a run that invovles creating a new world in hardcore mode, and venturing to the End to defeat the Ender Dragon. My question is this. What are the minimum items I will need to reach the enderdragon? What items will I need? What...

minecraft

Retrosaur

You pinged me

I'm derp.

badp

I do. I'm not on Steam right now

Retrosaur

Is there anything you want for it

I don't really want to just take it from you...

So if you want anything in TF2 (weapons) just letmehknu

ill put in a fast travel requestion to hyperion

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn Have you beaten 999 yet?

Trent Hawkins

12:25 AM

@fbueckert Or get the wiki clarified. Look - it no longer mentions not increasing the slot machine rates in the trivia! :P

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Who knew asking GIMP to export a 720p gif will cause it to use up 2GB of RAM

Much better, and smaller file size too

@TrentHawkins Did you change it?

Trent Hawkins

@murgatroid99 No, I simply posed the same question "well, which is it?" in the talk page.

badp

@YiJiang'sEvilClone true. if you could flip the flag that made it also loop, it'd be perfect

...unless Obama stole it

thanks Obama

speaking of which I'm desperately trying to get LyX to use a non-standard color

LyX is winning so far

Q: Is "Life Recovery" from flasks the same as "Life Regeneration" from passives?

For example: Would Zealot's Oath work with flasks or is it a seperate regeneration type?

This long and storied history has afforded our firm an unparalleled number of opportunities to completely screw up.

A: Is there a way to see how deep I am?

On windows 8 how would you do it? i know for a fact that on windows 7 F3 worked....

Is there any reason why F3 should not work on Windows 8? Seems rather odd for something like this to break on what should be a cross platform game

Raven Dreamer

What does F3 do?

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Apparently it opens a debug/statistics window with framerates and stuff

Raven Dreamer

In firefox, it opens "find"

And fails to close it, apparently

Fluttershy

Escape should close it.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

F3 is quick search

You can also configure Firefox to search as you type

Raven Dreamer

2:01 AM

So it does.

I should see about the viability for writing something to overwrite the default url search bar header.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

I'm talking about the minecraft question

Raven Dreamer

I don't like it trying to autocomplete random sites that I went to once, rather than the sites I go to often.

Sort of a "soft bookmark" feature.

Because I don't like using actual bookmarks? I don't know.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

You can delete them from history

Raven Dreamer

But that's the mark of a true programmer, right?

Instead of doing a 5 minute task (creating and organizing bookmarks), it's much better to spend 2 weeks writing a program that will automate the 5-minute task for you.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

I use bookmarks to pin sites to the top of my autocomplete list

Raven Dreamer

2:03 AM

@YiJiang'sEvilClone That's exactly what I want. Is that how it works already?

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Sort of. Bookmarks are preferred, but if you visit a site a lot that might come up first. But bookmarks weighs pretty heavily in the ranking I think

Add * to search only bookmarks

Raven Dreamer

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Great! So now I only have to write something that ignores everythiung except bookmarks!

FAE

@fbueckert Haha, #1 is so true. I was lucky in that I could leave a lot of stuff with my parents.
