Unfortunate Events of the Alien Nation




I cannot help but count with my fingers and toes how many time I felt extremely unlucky. I wasn't going to until my computer died unexpectedly without warning and leaving me unable to surf the Internet for 2 straight days. And just when the screen turn black every time I try to switch it on again I cannot help but recall the other times I was totally depressed.

Depression seems not to be in my nation's vocabulary. The problem of unemployed is more focused by the government than making its citizen happy. Well, G7 countries will all their wealth power is unharmed by the prangs of hunger and the sickening hand of unemployment. And according to Maslow, physiology needs have to be satisfied first before people feel secure and finally happy of themselves. For my country that is still 4 steps more.

Anyway, the problem I was to blab about is the unavailability of PayPal. My country is listed under the Send-only.

That was like 10 year ago. Things do change. PayPal has become huge hit. Political milieu changed for the better.

OpenShot Add Text: Subtitles and Captions

OpenShot is an open source video editing soft. Adding subtitles and captions is quite tricky. Adding subtitles takes effort. Suggestions by GeekOutdoors - You can have the soundwave form displayed so you know where the talking and pausing occurs. - You also use the green marker to help you decide how long the subtitle should be shown. - Encode the subtitles in Notepad so you can easily copy and paste it later on - Turn off the snapping tool which is on by default; to remove subtitle overlap For captions, GeekOutdoors, - used footer text, shortened the duration to like 3 seconds - if you want advanced editing of the text, you will need to download and link Inkscape to OpenShot Check out  basic OpenShot tutorial  or  list of OpenShot tutorial .
