playable tracks finale

 Went ahead with an option to disable all the muted video tracks regardless of dependencies.  Then, another option disables all the tracks below the 1st visible track.  The 2 options are independent & should improve the 2 most common use cases.

If both options are selected, it can select between 2 tracks by toggling just 1 mute curve.   If only disable_muted is selected, projects can elect to disable tracks by just using their mute curves without worrying about setting disable_muted.  If only only_top is selected, users can select the playable track by stacking edits instead of manipulating mute curves.

Full compositing is rarely used enough that these options will probably be on most of the time.

It'll break a lot of unusual track routing involving random access & nested EDL's, but it'll generally be a force for good.  The most common workflow involves layering future edits on top of past edits & ending time stretches as soon as the future edit begins.

Noted "play every frame" should probably be stored with the EDL instead of a global option.  Projects which need that one are specifically dealing with motion tracking, live video input.  Every frame is just a tough one to propagate to the playback engine when it changes.  These 2 options need to stop & restart playback currently.  There could be another transport mode which reloads options which don't require stopping, but there is an advantage to stopping when enabling every frame.

The DVD subtitle options should probably be offloaded to a command line program rather than repositioned into the EDL session.

Another one dies alone.  This one was in poor health.   Stabbed himself in the abdomen while trying to separate frozen patties.  Lions try not to have any body parts in the path of a knife.

It came to pass that selling plastic grocery bags of any kind were banned.  Thus ended 30 years of not having to buy garbage bags.  Lions never found a garbage bag quite as optimally sized for tiny apartments as grocery bags.

 Robots manely replaced the grocery bag, but there were times when a grocery bag packed stuff that wouldn't fit in the robot & they were often used to keep crumbs off the robot or insulate frozen food.  Living in the Kamlif* dream state definitely is a constant battle.  You have to always be working to keep up with inflation, always be babysitting the tax collectors, & you have to always be devising ways around the voters.

It's kind of hard on pedestrians because they have to carry all their reusable bags out & back.  Paper isn't durable enough to go very far.  The car is still king.

You will have no freedom & like it.

After the ban on selling grocery bags, the hits keep coming. "three hours a day on social media may be at heightened risk of mental illness" That many trump commercials in their news feeds eh.

It was always a tossup if the lion property would ever work out, given the need for someone to manetain it & the neverending uncertainty about whether it could be manetained, so the lion kingdom wasn't very attached to it.  But lions always imagined building an inexpensive man cave, weather station, garden, telescope on it, & the many activities which would transpire.  There were going to be daily drives into walkable areas, drives to the coast, & drives to lakes with a kayak.  The lion kingdom would revert to the lifestyle of a college student & probably live on a 25 hour clock again.

 Housing prices are expected to double in the remaneing 9 years.  Having no other option than paying $600k to over $1 mil for a tract house in a HOA is a scary thought.  It's more appealing when it's 1 of 2 options.  Lions pondered the benefits of a walkable neighborhood vs the rationale of manetaining a large piece of land, but the land was always the best backup plan.

 Surprised the last weekend home game already came to pass & the very last home game in Oakland was already sold out.  Lions concede to not having very positive memories of the coloseum & having some cringes.  It seems to have been something lions did to impress others but didn't enjoy.

The parents really got into scoring every game, so there was a kind of incentive to not miss any in order to have a complete record.  Lions remember the papermate sharpwriter .5mm pencils they used to use.  There was also the walkman craze, so we could hear the radio commentary.

 The years of season tickets, 1986-1989 got to be pretty tedious.  Seem to recall 1986 being the only year we went to every single weekend home game because of FOMO.  The later years were a bit more sane.  There were other things to do besides spending all day every weekend at the ballpark, but young lion wasn't one to create his own schedule.  We parked ever farther from the stadium & left ever earlier.  By 1988, scoring complete games had definitely left favor.

We didn't take a single picture there.  It wasn't seen as a big deal that would 1 day become impossible.  There is only lion memory of the quarry behind the bleachers, the announcer, diamond vision, the urinals, the manual scoreboard, the 1966 scoreboards, the mid day heat during the 1st innings. 

 The memory wasn't positive enough for lions to ever bother going to another game after 1989.  Even commuting to the city, it was never important enough to go to a giants game right next to the office although some coworkers did.

 It is done. Another $87 gone. There have been promising signs from the posterior tibial tendon.  The crusher workouts actually haven't felt as crushing as they used to.

 What lions think is happening is index funds are earning interest on large treasury positions.  They're putting the interest into stonks to manetain a constant allocation.  It's not millennials pouring money in the stonk market expecting lower interest rates. High interest rates are pushing up stonks like the 90's.  Millennials are taking money out of the stonk market to buy houses & pay their mortgages.  Important reminder that lions would only barely get by & be fairly unhappy if they retired now, drained their savings to buy a house, & couldn't afford a lot of things they hoped to have.  Lions don't expect to have the coordination required to play it, when the time comes.  Maybe they could just play chords.  Would definitely have to learn how to tune it & regulate it. If lions didn't have to buy a house, things would be better. 40 years ago, bonds were called fixed income because the standard method was to use interest as a source of income i

 Don't kid yourself.  US is a 1 party system.  Unless something is drastically wrong with the 1 campaign, they always vote democrat.  Even as bad as H-Rod was, they still voted for her. Ordering renters to provide $25,000 subsidies to new home owners is basically ordering them to pay what was an entire down payment 20 years ago.  Surely if they could afford these entitlements for home owers, they would have bought houses themselves.  They formerly required the high school dropouts to pay $50,000 in student loan forgiveness to Harvard graduates. Calif* requires renters to provide a $150,000 subsidy to new home owners or about the total cost of a house 20 years ago.    Amerikans just want the Calif* way of life for all.  If you don't like how wealth is redistributed from poor to rich in Calif*, you're not going to like the rest of US. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reviewing past stonk po

 Anyways, the next idea was revising the GUI to get rid of the drop shadows, decorations.  The modern trend is flat colors, but the trends have to change every 6 months for these corporations to stay in business. 1 idea that looked good was an apply button in the file dialog which would allow loading files from a bunch of directories or picking 1 file at a time without closing the window.  The trick is most files require building an index.  The file dialog would have to be frozen during the load process or it would have to be locked out of loading again.  It would be a functional but unpleasant experience. The biggest win right now would be repositioning the plugins to the top when there isn't an asset. The lion kingdom considered applying to FUTO for a grant.  The problem is there are so many forks, so many animals who expect a cut even if their contribution never worked, so many animals who would expect a cut for a feature idea in the future which they may or may not ever creat
