“Perihelion Day is celebrated when Earth is closest to the sun in its orbit around the sun. In 2025, Perihelion Day will be on January 4 at 8:28 AM EST. At this point, Earth will be 91,405,993 miles from the sun.“

” … sRGB is also the default color profile for web design. So, if you were typing your hex codes in CSS, you can be sure they’ll display in sRGB.” – via sketch.com
I’ve been using the default Dell color scheme that came with the monitor. Going to try the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 color scheme on a Dell external monitor while working on web development projects.

I needed to convert a screencast created using Mac’s native screen recorder that saves the file as a .mov file. It also was at a resolution and file size that I needed to reduce.
Installed ffmpeg and ran the conversion via the command-line.
Used the learnwithjason.dev post “Hardware Accelerated Video Encoding on Apple Silicon (M1 Max, etc.) With FFmpeg” and modified the example to produce an output file at 20 percent and converted to an .mp4 file.
Example Code:
ffmpeg -i “Screen Recording 2024-01-05 at 11.48.44 AM.mov” -acodec copy -c:v h264_videotoolbox -q:v 20 output-file.mp4
Code Notes:
-i # the file to convert
-acodec copy #don’t remove audio
-c:v h264_videotoolbox # use Apple Silicon hardware acceleration
-q:v 20 # quality for the output file is 0 to 100
output-file.mp4 # Name of the new output file -
