  • With docker-conpose it took less than 20 mins to setup the system across several machines and have it working. Definitely worth investigating.

    Pro tip 1, use it to strip out any languages you don’t need and other optimisation techniques like reordering streams will save space and reduce transcoding overheads.

    Pro tip 2, You’ll encoded fastest if you can offload to a GPU, I did this in two gaming pcs with decent albeit 7 year old, Nvidia cards, but you’ll get slightly better results (barely noticeable quality wise, but slightly smaller) through a CPU encode, it’ll just takes about 7 to 20 times as long.




  • I love love loved, call Jonathan Pie. Very funny.

    Some suggestions.

    Three bean salad - you have to start at the beginning, it won’t make any sense otherwise - it barely does to me and I’ve heard it all. Surreal comedy.

    Hamish and Andy - again, start at the beginning, its good clean fun. Just three mates doing silly, harmless things.

    Where there’s a will, there’s a wake - Kathy Burk interviewing interesting people about thier dream funeral. Adult humour.

    The boring podcast - short lectures by different people on things that sound boring but become fascinating such as, Hb pencils, double yellow lines, street furniture.

    Pop culture parenting - they take a famous scene from a different movie each week and break down how it shows good or bad parenting techniques. Great for anyone with young kids.

    I’ve several more if those don’t tickle your pickle.
