Damn. Guess I better convert all the stuff I download from Lemmy then. Which method though...?

I am stealing this idea, thank you fellow lemm.ee user!

Wouldn't the ease of access for music piracy in comparison to video piracy be the true barrier keeping them in check? Audio doesn't exactly have massive file sizes, and the ability to rip audio from any source has become more accessible than ever.

I wonder when streaming services may have their "Napster moment".

I don't think that's competition, more IP holder rent-seeking.

This is California, the state with the strictest gun laws in the country on the books. You're asking civilians with compliant arms to go up against literal military surplus equipment (provided through the 1033 program)?

Also, nice bot username. Let's see if you reply to any of the comments.

I've only installed Interstellar on my Linux Mint machine, does it have support for Android at all?

Numerator - top half of a fraction

Denominator - bottom half of a fraction

Roots of a polynomial - multiplying two terms of (x+some constant)(x+some constant) should equal the equation with a primary term of x^2

"Completing the square" - Attempting to find roots of a difficult polynomial (in the case of that equation, finding 2 easy roots and adding a constant at the end of the denominator)

Cancelation between a numerator and denominator can only occur when both terms are multiplied as a whole, not simply added.

In this case, the polynomial at the top needs to be converted to the root multiplication that lead to it: (x+1)^2, and the denominator needs to complete the square: (x-1)(x+1)+4, which would still be unable to have terms canceled (as there is still addition in the denominator that cannot be removed), so the original form is the valid answer.

It's a common thing drilled into students during these courses that you cannot simply cancel out terms at will - you have to modify polynomials first.
