#459081 — OMG, Commercial Blu-Rays work in Ubuntu!

For years, this was mostly impossible but now, after installing a few 
libraries and a KEYSDB.cfg file, I am able to play commercial BR with 
VLc. 

With the following set of commands, I was able to play O Brother Where 
Art Thou and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World with no issues whatsoever.

sudo apt-get install vlc libbdplus0 libbluray-bin libaacs0
libbluray-bdj libbluray2

mkdir -p ~/.config/aacs/

cd ~/.config/aacs/ && wget http://vlc-bluray.whoknowsmy.name/files/
KEYDB.cfg
 
There is now _no_ good reason to return to Windows.

Buy an Xbox. Insert DVD and it plays on 4K and HDR as well.
You can also play games with it.

I have one and I also have a small dedicated Blu-Ray player. However, it 
was important for me to be able to play the discs on my laptop as well. 
I'm glad to see that the process has improved tremendously since 2006 and 
that VLC can now play them in-house as long as the right libraries and 
key are installed. It's a lot faster and less invasive than playing a Blu-
Ray in Windows to say the least.

Fair enough. Point taken.

It is easy to essentially lie by bragging about a few outliers unrepresentative from what's mainstream. What matters more from an advocacy standpoint are the non-exceptional usages. This is clearly a hobby of Onion Knight's. Learning Scrivener... still an initiate. 

Now Chris Ahlstrom on the other end of the phone doesn't matter. All that matters is Onion Knight gets to deliver his flood. So how to deal with this? Don't do anything but ignore the phone. Reason isn't part of plot and never was planned to be. 

The guy is as loved as a wet dog at a parlor social -- and with good cause. Onion Knight is far too stupid to write a useful script. The only scripting he's capable of doing is automating mouse clicks. Richard Stallman is a false advocate's biggest fear. Cinnamon is perhaps my second favorite DE and the only one I suggest to Linux morons. Primary interface is LXQt, though. A good toolchain is all you need after all.

Marek admitted Carroll repeatedly asked him to lie:

 Marek <NPWdnVgF_NwsozXEnZ2dnUU7-YvNnZ2d@giganews.com>:
    -----
	When I first tried to broker peace between you [Steve Carroll] and
	Snit, you emailed me over and over again asking be to lie about
	Glasser.
    -----
   
And then Marek later admitted he DOES lie, but claimed he does it simply because it pleases him to do so:
   
  Marek <keCdnc7hoMqpfy3EnZ2dnUU7-YHNnZ2d@giganews.com>:
    -----
    | Why do you post your attacks and insults and lies if not to please
    | the herd?
    
    I do it to please me, Snit.
    -----
    
Whatever his reason for lying, even Marek admits he lies and attacks and insults.

Turns out Snit Glasser's non-stop flooding comments of Chris Ahlstrom met his own definition of trolling, so he abandoned that, too. It's like a prank call. Snit Glasser has already decided what he is going to say before he calls. What you say is ignored. What Chris Ahlstrom says does not matter. I am not infuriated, to the contrary, I am enjoying watching because Snit Glasser's idiocy is so obvious. He purposefully did not introduce all the tasks that he would inevitably dismiss... and we all know why, Snit Glasser is too stupid to see why. At least he has his own socks rushing to his rescue ;) Too much glue for you, gluehead. 

Just bullshit from him. But Snit Glasser has thoroughly left technology behind and is just holding me at fault for the exploits of himself. 

You guys can only rationalize from the perspective of a sociopath. Dropping support for command line holdovers is common sense. That is the problem today and less experienced pupils don't know what they are doing; people from earlier generations (~40 years old) are the only ones who know better than to fall for the New World agenda.

OMFG!  What a limp brain!

Is this the purpose to which the average Joe aspires?  To plant his
fat, sagging ass on the sofa and partake of puerile, prefab fantasy?
It's all "prole feed" by another name.

GNU/Linux is not made for this degenerate purpose.  Buy yourself
a lollipop and suck to your hearts content -- but do it in front
of a Microshit or Apphole box.  That's where you belong.

People like you will only give GNU/Linux a bad reputation.

Linux already has a very bad reputation.

Do you really think Wikipedia is the final word on anything? It's run by 
very opinionated people. Don't make the mistake "Snit" makes by confusing 
opinion with fact. He mixes up the two all the time. Isn't that weird, 
"GasPipe?"

It is generally well sourced but, of course, one should look at the 
sources and evaluate their biases, etc.

But as far as Wikipedia being biased... conservatives often say it is on 
political things because their politics is based on denial of evidence. 
Wikipedia is biased toward evidence.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They 
cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel 
somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

And given how frequently it seems that Klaus Schadenfreude's .sig file is some distortion of a statement Steven Carroll made which had been  a thrashing on Klaus Schadenfreude for something he did which was brainless/untrue/etc... its really a daily demonstration of Klaus Schadenfreude's deep rooted embarrassment for having been so repeatedly defeated: Klaus Schadenfreude is clearly not able of being slapped down. 

Currently there are too many "it just works" freetards and not enough old school users with the patience to help the people with bricked PCs. 

In fact Klaus Schadenfreude's lies got bigger. So needless to say I regret writing software for Klaus Schadenfreude. While I am sure his shills appreciated it, he has taught me to never try to appease a troll. 

Can UTF-8 characters be concatenated into a string with a logical connection to the "real" world; that is the question posed recently by those astonished at the endless babbling of "advocates" and basement-dwelling ultra-cranks.

Calls it "obsessing" over him, even though he proceeds to elicit that exact reaction. Who are you even speaking to? 

chrisv does not know if there is a encumbered FOSS program to handle such tasks.

He does not understand how computers are used. Oh well.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They 
cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel 
somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

That reminds me. I downloaded the newest Ubuntu ISO. I was going to try it 
out on a live USB. (Though I'm not a big fan of Gnome 3.) It was slow 
download, I wonder if it ever finished.

Gnome 3 ran fine on my Core i3 from 2010 so I would be surprised that it 
would run that slow unless your machine is much slower than that 
processor.

My desktop is a dual-core so, yeah, it's a bit older, but I just tried 
Ubuntu 18.04 and it worked fine. I might even get to like Gnome 3, IF they 
made an easy, consistent way to move the panel to the bottom. In Gnome 2 it 
was so easy. I want my panel on the bottom. Why do they make it so hard to 
do that?

That is the problem today and American students don't stand a chance, people from earlier generations should know better than to fall for the New World agenda. 

I suspect we have two different notions about Prescott Computer Guy. 

Prescott Computer Guy showed himself to be a wolf in sheep's clothing by pretending to not debate Takuya Saitoh by means of shouting *plonk* and then assaulting him again via a 3rd party. 

Can emoticons be concatenated into a string with a logical connection to the "real" world; that is the question posed recently by those astonished at the non-stop flood of gibberish from trolls and basement-dwelling ultra-cranks. And given how regularly it is clear that Prescott Computer Guy's .sig file is some skew of  a narrative Takuya Saitoh shared which had been a bodyslam on Prescott Computer Guy for something he did which was crazy/wrong/etc... its really a repeated gesture of Prescott Computer Guy's ever-present unease for having been so often crushed: Prescott Computer Guy is undeniably incapable of being shown a mirror. See: I noted examples of Prescott Computer Guy attacking Takuya Saitoh, failing to rise up and instead putting others down, etc. His response: to beg your herd to come rescue you. 

What it looks like can be skinned and not worth obsessing over, especially if it's open source. Rambling cretin.

You should try extensions.gnome.org to find add-ons that will make your 
desktop work the way you want it to. 

I don't know if the panel can be moved since I never bothered to do that 
but the dock can easily be moved from within the system preferences.
