Benny and I have been playing our "reverse turing test" game — aka GPTDash — at Datenspuren for two years now, so we decided it's time we took it to the big stage. We wanted to play it with like a hundred people, but didn't expect to get the big stage™ at 39c3, hall 1 that seats like 3k people. At t… read more →
Gibt's auf dem #39c3 ein GOC (Gürtel Operation Center)? Oder eine tolle Person, die mir einen Gürtel verkaufen möchte, damit ich nicht bis zum 31. mit leicht rutschender Hose leben muss? 🙏Meiner ist heute früh kaputtgegangen 🫠
Edit: Gone
I know it's already Day 2 of #39c3, but is anyone still in need of a ticket? I have one extra, ideally for FLINTAs or other underrepresented groups.

Ok two questions:
- Are there #eInk tablets with cases that make them look like leather-bound notebooks?
- Who wants to help me write an app for these so that I can exchange handwritten messages with AI-powered Tom Riddle? Jetzt kann man meine Visage auch endlich mal auf media.ccc.de sehen, witzig. https://media.ccc.de/v/ds25-527-live-podcast-reboot-politics-akronymisierbar
Several months ago I realized I'd lost an old motion detector somewhere in my apartment. It was still connected to #homeassistant however. So I set up an alert to tell me if I'd trigger it, which I promptly forgot about. Today I got this ominous notification, at first not having a single clue what the hell it was about. But I just remembered! And I'm not at home... 🙃

Ich hab das Repo zur #VVO und #DVB Dokumentation letztens ein wenig aktualisiert und aufgebohrt, die statischen Stationsdaten dort sind jetzt immer täglich aktuell. Cooler Nebeneffekt ist, dass man auch die täglichen Änderungen im Netz nachvollziehen kann! https://github.com/kiliankoe/vvo #öpnv #oepnv
I had some fun last night building a tiny iOS app that you can use to track lightning. Tap a button when you see it, again when you hear it, and optionally record the direction. You'll see a track of lightning strikes on a map! Feel free to try it out! https://testflight.apple.com/join/BmbPbswt
- Change video container
Quickly change a file's container using magic shell syntax.
ffmpeg -i path/to/file.{webm, mp4} - Concatenate videos
Concating several video files with ffmpeg is very straightforward if they all share the same container and codec. Add all input files to a text file listing their relative or absolute paths.
file 'file1.mp4' file 'file2.mp4' ...Run the following.
$ ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i input.txt -c copy output.mp4-safe 0can be omitted if the filepaths are relative. - Create video from image and audio
Technically something simple along the following lines would work.
ffmpeg -i image.png -i audio.mp3 video.mp4This does however create a file with just a single frame, which doesn't really work on YouTube for example. The following creates a video with repeating frames.
ffmpeg -r 1 -loop 1 -i image.png -i audio.mp3 -acodec copy -shortest -vf scale=1280:720 video.mp4Credits go to superuser.com/a/1041820/236423
- Keep subtitles while transcoding
To keep all existent subtitle tracks when transcoding media with ffmpeg, just pass the flag
-map 0:s -c copy, e.g.$ ffmpeg -i /path/to/media.{mkv,mp4} -map 0:s -c copy - Rotate videos
Rotate videos using ffmpeg by transposing them. The command to do so is:
$ ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "transpose=1" output.mp4The possible rotations are the following.
0 = 90CounterCLockwise and Vertical Flip (default) 1 = 90Clockwise 2 = 90CounterClockwise 3 = 90Clockwise and Vertical FlipUse
-vf "transpose=2,transpose=2"for 180 degrees.Credits go to stackoverflow.com/a/9570992/1843020
