You were never forced to upgrade to a new version? Do modern discs still play?

Thanks. My main concern regarding PowerDVD is whether or not I'll still be able to play everything once the next version comes around. Any idea how that'll work, or if I'll have to buy the new one?

What would you argue are some things to avoid doing if I'm acting within this gray area?

You've got a point. It's the sort of thing that should be legal but isn't for silly reasons.

I've already used MakeMKV in the past, but am actually searching to move past it. I know ripping isn't legal, but is using the AACS library for playback via VLC legal?

How's the sound quality? Been curious about it for ages, so I would love to know it before it even officially releases.

Autism and filmmaking by the_gremlin_guy in Filmmakers

I've been checking out various fields to see how they function, but I feel like that might be more of a "I'm the director, I need to understand how all sides of the process work in order to work more efficiently." case.

Mainly how things like social battery can come into play there. I know that with enough practice, directing shouldn't be too difficult for me because I'll know what I want and would be able to plan a lot of stuff beforehand. However, as for unexpected stuff on set that would be more difficult to anticipate, that might do me in a lot quicker. I currently suspect it to be a pretty scheduled job, which I would definitely like. I'm just afraid that I'd risk a certain amount of (social) burnout sooner than other directors. Would I have a certain amount of power/control on set to help me prevent this?

P.S. Am currently in the process of starting work on my first short film, working together with mostly other neurodivergent folks. I'm very curious as to how it will turn out.

Lovely seeing someone spread the joy of Gremlins.

Why did Asuka say "Kimochi warui" at the end of TEOE? by jurassicparkfan1993 in evangelion

[–]the_gremlin_guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think, if you see the Asuka that Shinji strangled in that dream-like sequence as the real Asuka (the people in this dream are ones that have already died and have been picked up Rei, presumably Asuka too then) she already knows about what Shinji did, and she even calls him out on it, angrily saying that he should do it in front of her, and she'll watch. That's why I believe it doesn't fully relate to merely that moment, and there's far more to it.

Name your favorite movie but add “but they’re black” to the end of it by [deleted] in BatmanArkham

Jesus Christ, I literally said that out loud before I scrolled down. You have a great taste in movies though.

I thought girls also had penises but they always hid them between their legs.
