Sleep 0330 to 1230. (9 hours)

• A few years ago I ripped all my DVDs. Now I'm converting the DVD rips (each is 4 to 8 GB) to MP4 reducing size to a third or a fourth. Pretty much just the main feature, English audio, commentary tracks, subtitle track. I have 2 TB of DVDs and hoping to get it down to 500 GB or so which can then fit comfortably on my MBP 2020.
• For subtitle tracks if it's a VOBSUB Apple TV app won't recognize it. If it's a Closed Caption subtitle then TV app will recognize it (only if there is just a CC track, having VOBSUB tracks confuses TV app and it doesn't show CC option). Handbrake doesn't convert from one to the other.
• One thing I noticed is that American DVDs have better foreign audio and subtitle support than British DVDs.

• Mac app bundle for $25 which includes Parallels Pro. The other four apps kind of suck but Parallels is worth it, though it says only for new customers. I have bought Parallels before but not for a decade. Guess I'll stick with VMWare Fusion which you can get a non-commercial use license for free.

• Because of this thread about GURPS support in Foundry VTT I think I will be buying Foundry VTT. I saw a couple of YouTube videos and it looks pretty cool and easy to use, partly because it's not trying to be-all-end-all of virtual table top.

• Turned on Brave Rewards (i.e. advertisements). Wow, so many crypto-based ads. Wallets, new coins, things that have crypto somewhere. At least the ads are well done because they're full page ads.
