I have a similar issue. I get snippets of songs stuck in my head for hours and my brain rearranges the music despite my conscious wishes. I've always got a toon up there of some kind. 24/7 365. My doctor said its ADHD, but I'm skeptical.

Why has nobody mentioned this is the school in sixteen candles??
@JimLeonard21 күн бұрын
Because it isn't, but you're close. This high school is New Trier High School in Winnetka, Illinois. In Sixteen Candles, the two high schools used for a mixture of exterior and interior scenes were Niles East and Niles North high schools, both in Skokie, Illinois. If you'd like to get even closer, you can mention Ferris Bueller's Day Off, which had sections filmed in Winnetka itself (the Realtor storefront, Ferris' Dad driving home from work, one of the beaches, others), although I don't think there are any shots of New Trier in the film.

FFMPEG can create the individual frames, but it isn't capable of color ordered dithering, only color error-diffusion dithering which ruins the output.
@@nst1nct Thanks! That definitely didn't exist 10 years ago when I was writing the code. Unfortunately, I just tested it, and it produces much worse results than Photoshop's pattern dither. Joel Yliluoma has done a great write-up of various color ordered dithering methods; maybe someday I'll write that into the compiler so that people can just feed it 24-bit color bitmaps.

Thank you for this, but "60p" means each frame has 60 vertical lines of pixels and is displayed as an entire frame (Progressive scan, as opposed to interlaced). I guess you were looking for "60 fps"

60p is common vernacular for any video presenting as 60 progressive frames per second, regardless of lines of resolution.

Lovely moment. Our 12yr old daughter has high functioning autism, our 15yr old son is also on the spectrum and your son very much reminds me of him with his curiosity. Our 10yr old has Downs and can’t speak at all which is also probably autism but there’s not much point getting that officially diagnosed according to his special school staff. I got myself diagnosed a few years ago when i was in my mid 40s so that the kids would have a role model who had achieved stuff because of autism not despite it.

I find it funny and wonderful that parents of autistic children can almost immediately recognize other autistic children (as well as parents of autistic children). Sam was diagnosed PDDNOS at age 6 and has presented as typical autism since age 2. I wish your family the best of health, patience, and humor.
