ASS (Advanced Substation Alpha)

Fantastic sub format for anime.

Why is that not ASA? Or even ASSA.

[-] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 62 points 2 months ago

Because they knew exactly what they were doing, obviously.

[-] Jerkface@lemmy.world 38 points 2 months ago

Because ASS.

[-] vodka@lemm.ee 18 points 2 months ago

Because substation alpha is SSA so they just reversed it.

Because it's funny.

[-] dditty@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

When I took a geometry test in eighth grade, I got a point deducted because I wrote ASS instead of SSA (side-side-angle) when calculating angles and side lengths of a triangle. Still got the right answer though

Oh, wonderful, teachers who punish kids for being kids and/or making mistakes.

I’m so old and tired, this isn’t even funny anymore. I’ll have to explain to some junior engineer about ASS. Then management will learn about this term “ass”, and use it incorrectly at every possible opportunity. Then when no one can explain ASS, I end up being “the ass guy.”

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

HEY EVERYONE IT'S THE ASS GUY

I always chuckle when Jellyfin shows subtitles as "Full ASS".

Never half ass two things. Full ass 1 thing

The default libass shaping engine,

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 55 points 2 months ago

ffmpeg command lines are straight up black magic.

Anyone who understands them is not to be trusted.

It's even worse than tar.

[-] mmddmm@lemm.ee 15 points 2 months ago

GNU tar is easy and straight-forward.

It's also completely incompatible with any other Unix, but then, what difference does it make is nobody can use them?

[-] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

A more complex but more commonly used program is rsync

rsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive is treated differently than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive which is different than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive/ which is different than rsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive/

It's a great tool for making copies onto drives, even servers. But man you have to double check how each folder path is laid out, otherwise it'll write the files of one folder to the main drive, unorganized.

If they know Regex, assume you are in Sarumans tower and held captive until a hawk comes in.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 15 points 2 months ago

Writing regex is easy.

Reading it again after a couple of weeks...

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago

It's a write only language
