Is this a serious suggestion? I've never really used FCPX so have no idea if it's actually a reasonable option for this

Ya I have to say the experience with Resolve's transcript view leaves a lot to be desired bsky.app/profile/knup...

Unfortunately, in my experience, resolve handles multi cam better than premiere, but premiere handles transcription and text based editing better than resolve.

THE NEW YORKER I, CLAUDIUS A.I. systems are black boxes. But researchers at Anthropic are trying to understand their model's mind— examining its neurons, running it through psychology experiments, and putting it on the therapy couch. Gideon Lewis-Kraus reports.

ok so i'm editing a multi-camera talk show - planning to extensively make use of multicam clips and text-based editing/auto-transcription. which NLE will ruin my life more if I choose to cut the show in it, Premiere or Resolve?

They're Letting Cancer Patients Die to Fund Concentration Camps

www.thefarce.org/theyre-letti...
Veterans → Goons Trump cut VA positions and froze hiring for nurses and psychologists—while 94% of VA facilities report severe staffing shortages. That money instead paid thousands of militarized agents to invade Minnesota and shoot Alex Pretti, a VA ICU nurse, dead while he lay prone on the ground. Veterans who earned their care are denied it so goons can terrorize American citizens. Care for Starving Children → Fascist Influencers Trump killed USAID funding, creating a $60 billion gap. The Lancet estimates 22.6 million preventable deaths by 2030, including 5.4 million children under five, as a result of all the funding cuts in 2025 around the world, as allies aped the Trump regime’s cuts. In just six months, 600,000 people died preventable deaths, mostly in Sub-Saharan Africa. Where did some of that money go? To fund far-right movements in Europe. We’re literally taking money from starving children and giving it to Nigel Farage, supporting Nazi-ish parties in Germany, and funding that weird mix of fascist and Putin-purchased movements across Europe. Cancer Research → Measles Outbreaks Bobby Jr. terminated or froze 320 grants researching cancer, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and heart disease—$561 million redirected away from cures. Meanwhile, measles outbreaks are hitting detention centers holding children like five-year-old Liam Ramos. We’re trading the possibility of curing cancer for the certainty of preventable disease spreading in camps where we’re holding American children.

"rich asshole who stops a multi-billion dollar project and causes an international incident to protect his lucrative duty-free gasoline concession" is really the perfect exemplar of parasitic trumpism. think of how wealthy the american people would be if we shook off all these bloodsuckers.

Virginia Democrats have passed their new 10-1 congressional map in the state House. On to the state Senate next

Big news from Virginia last night:

Dems unveiled their 10-1 congressional map in response to GOP gerrymanders in other states. It targets 4 Republicans & has 10 Harris seats.

It would be used in 2026 if a referendum passes on April 21.

Interactive map+data: davesredistricting.org/join/20e0049...
Image of a Virginia Democrats' proposed congressional map that is drawn to elect a ten-to-one Democratic majority and flip four Republican seats in 2026. The district lines are displayed over top of a basemap with major roads and cities labeled. The districts are colored by the 2024 presidential winner's margin of victory, with Kamala Harris districts in blue and Donald Trump districts in red. Darker shades represent larger margins of victory. An embedded chart shows the 2024 presidential election results and the adult population racial demographics in each district. Kamala Harris won 10 of the 11 districts, while Black voters would retain their ability to elect their preferred candidates in Districts 3 and 4, which remain safely Democratic.

WH keeps 'pumping up' payrolls for tomorrow. Here's why. Revisions could wipe out all job growth last year. Zero. zip. nada.

(Note, downward revisions start in 2024, so not a simple politics story.)

we almost never saw pieces like this when the prevailing epstein accusations were based on totally made up claims from the right. now that the actual evidence in the files implicates trump and other right wing figures, we get 5 articles like this a day.

Last week the far right started peddling a narrative that the outrage over Epstein is a moral panic. Today, like clockwork, a more polite version of that narrative appears in the Atlantic.

Thomas Massie is cooking right now and explicitly states that UAE Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem was sending torture videos to Epstein
🧵 In response to my posts on X today, DOJ 1) unredacted an FBI file that LABELS two individuals as co-conspirators 2) unredacted a file that lists several men who might be implicated 3) tacitly admitted that Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem was the sender of the torture video
