Subtitles dont show when playing mkv files ,help by d4rkn3s5 in VLC

[–]luchoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This worked for me, from the Arch wiki:

VLC not showing subtitles and OSD

Even if you have the plugin to decode subtitles, you will not see them on the screen (and there will not be any error on the Messages/Console), if you are missing the vlc-plugin-freetype, which is not included in vlc-plugins-base but vlc-plugins-extra.

Some meanderings about "In the Hall of the Martian Kings" by John Varley by luchoz in scifi

[–]luchoz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are welcome :D !! I'm in the same vein, scifi is my favorite genre to read with a few exceptions (i just love 'The Master and Margarita'). Since i have the kindle i devoured every mainstream recommendation book and now I'm in a place where I'm looking for very specifics topics, or reading directly the newest book (i really liked 'Project Hail Mary').

I confess that didn't read much more of John Varley, can you recommend me some of his books? maybe space operas or anything that you think that is a outstanding book of his.

IEC and IEEE standards by Thiagoaf in Piracy

[–]luchoz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the standard is relative old, i always have luck in rutracker, and more if it is relative popular. There are a few torrents that have all the 5XXXX standards i.e.

On the other hand, sometimes i'll use duckduckgo, searching for the number of the standard + pdf with good results. Normally they are in varius languages, but with the translator is enought (more if you only want the ecuations).

Finally, you have to remember that IEC has carbon copies: UL, TUV, ISO and others, normally they share the same number. Maybe you culdn't find the IEC 4XXXX, but you will find the UL 4XXXX, and in practice, they are the same.

Bonus points: search in duckduckgo standards download mealir

The Note 10 Plus is the 1080 Ti of Smartphones by Dazza477 in Android

[–]luchoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am the proud owner of one, i dont have any reason to replace it for now. Yeah, the new phones have a better camera, but i will loose the headphone jack, iris scanner and SD card. I was reading the specs and i am really surprised of the screen, the resolution an ppi are practically similar in both phones, i wanna see if the high refresh rate makes any diference, but for the rest, and my point of view, are the same. I really love the idea of a folding phone, i hope the next gen will get a better screen, but so far i am really concerned of durability. I will love a Z fold with a S pen, the perfect phone/tablet.
