Some strange video I think I found on imgur that has been confusing me forever. It shows only the feet area on the ground of someone wearing their left shoe, next to a standup sock holder with a live crab inside, and a squishy foot long white oval thing filled with– something like shaving cream or whip cream. The person steps on it with their right foot (which has a red toe ring on their big toe and a blue one on their middle toe) thus causing the contents of the oval thing to squish out from several small holes in it getting all over the floor and their foot. This freaks the live crab out making it scurry away quickly, like I would do if someone did this, especially since they immediately put their foot in the sock on the sock contain the crab was just inside. After their cream slathered foot also becomes sock covered as well (ew), they put the right show down and quickly put it on. Is this video an ad for shoe cream? A squishy sock kink? Crab fetish? DPR psyop? Toe blister speedrun? I NEED Y'ALL TO UNDERSTAND THIS LIVES RENT FREE IN MY HEAD!!

I helped a mate out with a job today, for which he asked me to join a Goggle meeting. Given my creaking Android, and my in-need-of-a-reinstall laptop, went about as well as you'd expect. We fell back to a phone call, and an Etherpad where he could drop links and copypasta.

We got the job done. But I definitely missed an opportunity to dazzle him with a drop-in replacement, something community-hosted, using commons software.

What do others default to these days in this situation?

Dear Fedi friends, I need your help!

We are working on motion graphics for the Fediverse promotional video... and we would love to do a sequence at the end with a mosaic of people's profile photos. For that, I need your consent.

If you'd like to have a small cameo in our video, can you let us know if we can use your profile pic?

Thanks! 🙏

Can you please boost this?

Dear sound/audio folks and engineers,

I have a directory with 3.5GiB of audio files (chiefly opus & m4a) which are spoken word recordings.

Some of them are quite low, and some of them are quite dynamic such that it's a whisper at times and nearly a shout at other times.

I've processed a lot of them with #audacity's compressor filter or #ffmpeg (ffmpeg -i audio.m4a -filter:a "speechnorm=e=50:r=0.0001:l=1" audio-normalized.m4a), but there are some unprocessed files in the collection, which are a pain to individually find and fix.

Is there a way from the #CommandLine to detect the loudness and/or dynamic range of audio files so that I can automatically flag them for processing with ffmpeg?

Thanks!!
