BAD IDEA …

If you were clever, you could design a shape-charge, like a super-sized claymore mine, into the tail gate of a truck. If you gave the driver bullet resistant glass and hearing protection, they could back up, fire the thing off, and drive away …

You could even design a near 360 degree deployment system into most modern trucks, and still give the driver a fighting chance at getting away.

But you should not do this.

Your Sobriety …

If you are comfortable in your sobriety, why do you spend all day posting about it?

It really does remind me of the gun control idiots who have to tell us EVERY SINGLE FUCKING HORROR STORY over and over again …

(pretty much the same fucking vibe)

“Dan, drinking ruined my life …”

“So don’t drink …”

“But alcohol is so bad for you …”

“SO DON’T DRINK …”

“But …”

“Listen – you are sounding like someone that WANTS a DRINK …”

“That’s racist …”

(and scene)

MORE MIND BLOWING INFO:

Everything you do, obsessively, to include training for marathons and drinking? – means you are NOT doing other things …

(like caring for your family)

Combining .MP4 videos (using FFMPEG)

Create the script file that contains the file list: file_list.txt (as shown are the contents)

#combine video

file 'HDV_1254.MP4'
file 'HDV_1255.MP4'
file 'HDV_1256.MP4'
file 'HDV_1257.MP4'

Then, on the LINUX terminal line (command line):

$ ffmpeg -f concat -i file_list.txt -c copy 20230429_Walking_Dogs.mp4

And if you just want to merge/combine all the videos in a directory, do this bash command to concatenate the .mp4 file names:

$ for f in *.mp4; do echo "file '$f'" >> file_list.txt; done

… and then, just run the same command for ffmpeg as shown above …

FUN!
