They won't if it isn't consider an optimality factor. Same as ending input early. Neither is more optimal, the author can choose.

VirtualBoy movies now require special encode steps. 0. Get the filters: - https://sourceforge.net/projects/feos-tas/files/Anaglyph.dll/download - put to avisynth plugins folder - http://www.pantarheon.org/AviSynth3DToolbox/ - zip or installer 1. Get the latest VBjin build: https://sourceforge.net/projects/feos-tas/files/VBjin_r103.7z/download 2. Record AVI for left and right screens separately: View -> Video Display -> Left/Right Only. Save them as R.avi and L.avi. 3. For downloadables, use the following code instead of regular AVISource:

Language: avisynth
left  = Greyscale(AVISource("L.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
right = Greyscale(AVISource("R.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
Anaglyph(left, right, "grey")
AudioDub(left)

4. For YouTube HD, you'll need to have 2 planes to use the yt3d filter, each with subtitles and logo. If you're not using bitmap font for subtitles (that allows them to look nice when upscaled), you'll have to encode both planes to HD first, then apply the yt3d, greyscale and levels to both of them on the second pass. Otherwise, make 2 encodes in SD and then use them for the second pass (make sure to disable logo and subs this time). The first pass requires a lossless codec. The second pass would be this:

Language: avisynth
left  = Greyscale(AVISource("1.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
right = Greyscale(AVISource("2.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
yt3d(left, right)
AudioDub(left)

5. YT stream also needs this tag: yt3d:enable=true Note: you might want to change the subtitles color to $009D9D9D, so it matches the color scheme provided by the Levels() function. ~~EDIT: Thanks creaothceann.~~ Nope, it breaks the automation. Which can be seen here btw http://pastebin.com/5UpWkBm4

While music would really be better, and it shouldn't be a factor of optimality in such cases, I don't think it gets any close to "sickening camera angles, seizure inducing activity" in how badly it affects entertainment. I'd leave such decisions to the author, while generally preferring having music in such cases.

I'm trying to say that sometimes things are just interesting to know. For people involved in this thread that link might be interesting to know. It doesn't always have to be an argument about everything? Or it then entirely stops making any sense?

There's a brilliant lecture (in Russian) about how deeper things that were considered outright spiritual in past by lots of people (scientists, philosophers, etc) in fact base entirely on how the brain operates. http://tvkultura.ru/video/show/brand_id/20898/episode_id/156199/video_id/156199 The main idea is that memory and education are abilities of a brain, and we can affect both by manipulating the neurons. On the other side, feelings are basically the hormones. You know the story. Does it all mean, there's nothing besides that? I don't think so. Such an idea even looks impossible to prove, because it would again be attempting to explain the whole with a part. And it doesn't look possible to prove something doesn't exist: it can only be presumed to be non-existent as long as there's no proof it exists. My point is, does the above disappoint? Does the above mean everything is worthless, since we're just occasional stones floating in space? Not to me. Pointless is degradation, and any idea that leads to it. Once progress is considered the main factor, it all starts making sense again, unless one doesn't actually consider it so important. And we end up discussing attitudes...

I don't have any way to actually check, so it wouldn't matter. The rest of your passage doesn't prove the freedom I'm experiencing is an illusion. It might be. But as long as my goals are achieved, I don't think I'd care.

1. I mean, why do people always work so hard on proving that everything in the universe is a slave of physics? 2. If the definition of your "truly free choice" is what is in the OP, then I don't see how existence of free will could at all be proven. Like, what experimental outcome will tell you that "the origin of the choice solely resides in the subject making it"?

In the case of "no free will" both are devoid of any original agency by definition, yet this does not have necessary behavioral implications, since the sense of agency will still be there, which is what drives the almost axiomatic believe in free will today. It would simply mean that whatever any of them does is a matter of circumstances, including any thoughts and any attitudes, on a fundamentally physical level.

1. Where is this obsession - to explain the entire with a part of it - always coming form? Can't people just get it that the world is diverse? 2. What exactly is "original agency"?

Meaning as an organizing principle of thought and desire would not be affected by disproving free will. But that would reveal that we're essentially no more than rocks floating in space (elaborate rocks, but rocks nonetheless).

That's basically what I find silly. And the actual question you're raising is, what would be the difference between a human that is the primary author of his decisions, and the one that's entirely ruled by the circumstances. Is it right? In my opinion, both exist in reality. Some people want to drive their own lives in some way, others just rely on the circumstances and let them command what choices the human should make. So the former have will for actions, and the latter don't care. Still, I see no point in discussing how free that will is, since it can't be 100% random. But it has randomness to it, so it's not 100% deterministic either. Maybe in fact, it's a matter of measure?

So what about my last passage? Also, I don't see how you can connect physics and meaninglessness. It's like, "if I collide two apples and they both break then there's no love in the world".
