Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?

One of my favorite things about bluesky is that when I refresh the tab 'following' it keeps the same content and in chronological order. I can just be done and move on after a quick scrollif nothing changed🙂 Efficient for me, and more considerate of my time

This has been an excellent conference to listen in on -- I've made it through about 5 or 6 talks on YouTube, and they have all been enlightening. The speakers care, and have the real world experience to back up their topics bettersoftwareconference.com #GameDev #IndieGameDev #BetterSoftwareC

I think Blender3D 's video editing might actually work well here as you could have shapes follow a path with a bit of work. So if it's something you'll do more than once, you could create some infrastructure there

I use kdenlive for my video editing as of now. So you could basically use keyframes for shapes to represent the current. There may also be 'path' tools or plugins.
