4chan’s guide to converting GIF to WebM - https://boards.4chan.org/g/res/41212767

Grab ffmpeg from https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html

It's a command line tool which means you will have to type things with your keyboard instead of clicking on buttons.

The most trivial operation would be converting gifs:

ffmpeg -i your_gif.gif -c:v libvpx -crf 12 -b:v 500K output.webm
  • -crf values can go from 4 to 63. Lower values mean better quality.
  • -b:v is the maximum allowed bitrate. Higher means better quality.

Installing Arch Linux with an encrypted btrfs root, with GPT and UEFI support

# Take note of this:
# - The first thing you need is to identify which disk you're going to use. For the purpose of this guide, it will be /dev/sda
# Be VERY CAREFUL if you have more than one disk on your computer, and DOUBLE CAREFUL if one of them is the one with your backups
# - Since btrfs does not support swapfiles (yet), we'll create a swap partition. In this guide, it will NOT be encrypted

Efficient Encrypted Arch Linux with Bcache Installation Procedure Providing SSD and HDD Concurrent Support
# OBJECTIVE: Install Arch Linux with encrypted root and swap filesystems with full Bcache SSD/HDD support
# and boot from UEFI.
# RATIONALE: As most users realize, you have to pay for marginal speed improvements in all circuits which compute.
# This holds true for CPUs, GPUs, DRAM, SRAM, Drives, including memory cards and USB sticks. If you want speed, you
# must be willing to pay the price premium that a faster device commands versus a slower alternative.
# SSDs are incredibly fast, but expensive to produce, and therefore, only offer limited storage space.
# HDDs, by comparison, are ridiculously slow, but offer immense storage space per dollar expended.

Solutions and workarounds for issues with "pex install postgis" (assuming macOS+Homebrew)

Problem: configure: error: could not find libxml2
Solution: sudo xcode-select -s /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools

Problem: configure: error: could not find geos-config within the current path. You may need to try re-running configure with a --with-geosconfig parameter
Solution: brew install geos

Problem: configure: error: could not find proj_api.h - you may need to specify the directory of a PROJ.4 installation using --with-projdir
Solution: brew install proj and then CFLAGS=-DACCEPT_USE_OF_DEPRECATED_PROJ_API_H pex install postgis

Problem: configure: error: gdal-config not found. Use --without-raster or try --with-gdalconfig=\
