That absolutely depends on if your class leads a good discussion or if it's just powerpoint and facts vomit. If it's the latter, write notes. If it's the former, pay close attention and put everything away. If it's both, just alternate.
Absolutely. You have muscle memory - the unusual layout of every page of notes can forge a memory too. I took lots of notes in college, never went back and studied them, and I did great.
The laptop was brought to classes I didn't need to learn in. I had a studio sound recording class where the teacher would arrive just in time for class and spend the first 20 minutes of a 50 minute class trying to get their projector connected to their laptop and set up.
My computer can do everything. But I'd much rather have a large television, 5.1 surround system, and couch for media viewing. And of course my TV viewing happens off a computer connected to those systems. A television is a really nice large computer monitor for video with all the fancy digital hookups.
On the other hand, I might be looking at the video and not the spec. The spec seems to encode them as separate frames, but the video you linked to displays them together as one frame. I don't think your example video follows the spec - it just emulates it.
You really should be concerned with your own well-being over this silly argument. Whether you tell me about it or not, you just might consider seeing a doctor who can help you.
MPEG-C Part 3's spec for auxiliary pictures isn't much more than stacking two pictures atop one another. It's not really a standard any more than my karaoke example other than being "codified." And no video players in common use even support that. 3D Blu-Ray uses something similar for stereo images, but it's not really a format. It's just an extra-wide or extra-tall picture with two images in it.
I'm not even sure the video container even has metadata to show that the auxiliary pictures are in use. I'm fairly certain your player has to just "know" that the video is encoded this way.
As I said - I believe you. It's faster. But not enough to matter. I haven't had any malware in years. So if you're obsessing about such minor details, the medication might give you some relief. You have been diagnosed, haven't you?
My statement wasn't really a wisecrack - just pinpointing the cause of your concerns. I'm putting absolutely no effort into my replies to you and yet you feel the need to do "research" for each and every reply, knowing that I'll just skim past it and reply. Another sign of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. It's not an ad-hominem attack just because it relates to your mental state. You could probably benefit greatly from medication - at least you'd be able to spend some time outside and take a break from obsessing over HOSTS files.
What have *I* done better to help improve conditions? Nothing - it's not needed. Things are just fine even though there are possible attack vectors. Even though I can shave milliseconds off when that's nothing compared to the load times of the actual content. I have no desire to block ads nor tracking cookies. It just doesn't matter to me. At all.
I think you'll find the definition of trolling to apply to quite a bit of what you post on Slashdot. This time, it happens to be you that was trolled. It's not like you haven't annoyed enough people to deserve it. It's rather a lot of visual clutter on completely unrelated topics.
Not ad hominem at all. I didn't say that your methods didn't work, so it can't be ad hominem. I just said that for the small gains you get, there's a lot better ways to spend your time. I'm actually saying that these methods aren't useful to many people outside of a certain subset of people who have a certain mental quirk.
But the combination of Lenovo's built-in antenna and the add-in card are not specifically FCC-approved. That's Lenovo's rationale for forcing vendor lock-in, anyway. FCC has denied any such requirement.
Uncertified doesn't mean made by other vendors. It means not certified. So all major wifi products are going to be certified, while Lenovo would be blocking competitor's parts. I'm pretty sure their wifi whitelist was for vendor lock-in, not FCC compliance. Sure, they can say that the combination of the mini pci card and the integrated antenna has not been certified specifically, this is their own excuse and not reality.
A) To place the animation within the content seamlessly. Especially if the layout/theme may change in the future. B) Agree C) smaller is still better. Might as well move forard D) Animated GIF isn't going away just because we have something else.
I re-ripped my music collection to AAC. It sounds better in the same amount of disk space. I do wonder how you ever made it to GIF from RLE BMP if you think this way.
24-bit png shaves 200KB off the file size of your true color example. And animating it would keep that size reduction. Of course, JPEG makes a lossy, but almost flawless version in only half the size.
There's probably a plugin for every browser out there somewhere. That doesn't give it 100% marketshare. Most people would never bother to install it. Me included.
And shopping, driver's license renewal, reference, news, movie showtimes, recipes, ordering a pizza, making phone calls, scheduling dr. appointment, paying bills.... On the other hand, I think I've maybe watched 2 videos on the web in the last 2 weeks. That is, aside from watching Netflix on a set-top box without a browser.
So...a browser should use some huge file format instead of relatively compact png? Sure, someone could extend GIF with an alpha channel, but none of those formats you listed are compressed as efficiently as 24-bit png with alpha. Not even close.
NO - that's not part of the H.264. That's a browser rendering trick. It's nothing to do with it being H.264 at all. You could do that with any video format from the last 20 years (that have browser support). But it's not exactly a good idea because of size/speed issues.

No, that's for the houseflies. Fruit flies eat fruit.
And compresses the air in the air gap. As long as the air gap stays below the seal line, it's fine.
Most people heat the inside of their homes.

Absurdly complex rituals that only offer marginal gains are the marks of someone with OCD. Take your meds.

That's a lot of overhead for a little spinning symbol next to an AJAX button.

But that's 184KB and PNG would compress it as 24-bit at 13KB (per my testing in Photoshop).
And shopping, driver's license renewal, reference, news, movie showtimes, recipes, ordering a pizza, making phone calls, scheduling dr. appointment, paying bills.... On the other hand, I think I've maybe watched 2 videos on the web in the last 2 weeks. That is, aside from watching Netflix on a set-top box without a browser.
184KB at only 217x217? Great proof of its excellence at compressing truecolor images. PNG can do that in 13KB.
So...a browser should use some huge file format instead of relatively compact png? Sure, someone could extend GIF with an alpha channel, but none of those formats you listed are compressed as efficiently as 24-bit png with alpha. Not even close.
Sure. And H.264 supports karaoke too. By putting words on the video. Again - it has nothing to do with H.264 or actual support in the video renderer.
NO - that's not part of the H.264. That's a browser rendering trick. It's nothing to do with it being H.264 at all. You could do that with any video format from the last 20 years (that have browser support). But it's not exactly a good idea because of size/speed issues.
