use x264 and not x265 to not have any dropped frames. You will want to re-encode it anyway to massively reduce file size with x265. Audio codec Vorbis seemed best at 64kbps.
Sometimes if trying to capture game footage if the ipad screen barely changes but you made a move in the game you have to move the screen a tad for it to detect motion. Doesn't have all the time but it does happen.

To clean metadata from PDFs use metadatacleaner (flatpak is huge like 600MB but what can we do besides compile from source)
https://gitlab.com/rmnvgr/metadata-cleaner/
You can also clean other types of files like images and various office documents. Can't drag and drop files and folders but can do through the file dialog. Works great.
Also has a lightweight option so it doesn't completely change too much but most likely you'll hardly ever have to use it.

On Mac I would use Adobe Acrobat Pro to do OCR and it did the best job especially with a white or light background. If the background was black or dark it would ignore it. It maintained the original layout always.
Linux I use ocrmypdf which is a command line tool

sudo apt install ocrmypdfIt OCRs (Optical character recognition) the file and doesn't touch the images and overlays the text on top of it so it's searchable, selectable and can be copied.

Make PDF booklets or make booklets into linear documents. If you want PDF pages into one page for instance.

Sparkel machine $120 - 10% off = $108 free shipping/ no tax from their website sparkel.com
Way better than soda stream as that one is more expensive having to buy and exchange CO2 canisters which are $30 per canister which supposedly can make 60L of carbonated water. However, as the pressure becomes less and less the carbonation level will vary as compared to Sparkel which will be consistent every time.
2 1/2 mins (level 3 carbonation) to make a 750ml bottle. 750ml = 25.4oz or about two 12oz cans. 1 gallon of distilled water is enough for five bottles. Super cheap since you can buy baking soda and citric acid for cheap. You add a tablespoon of each one each time you make a bottle. Only uses 20 watts @ 110 volts.
Don’t recommend using filtered mineral water whether it’s Brita or reverse osmosis water since the carbonation enhances those minerals. Although it’s not all that bad. It suggests a few ice cubes but it’s not necessary as long as your distilled water is pretty cold from the refrigerator.

I eventually plan to get a water distiller. Perhaps this one. Can save a little money if you get a plastic container rather than glass.
Most valuable tip I gathered from reading the comments is some people used citric acid to clean the burnt minerals on the bottom of the distiller. Even though most water distillers have an auto off switch once it hits a super high temperature like 320°F if there isn’t one or two inches of water the minerals will burn.
To avoid this buy a $6 to $10 outlet timer and once you figure out the correct time so one or two inches of water remains say like 4 hours, then just set it to that and you’ll avoid the burn altogether. Usually they have 15 to 30 minute increments you can set.

Amazon comments on the Sparkel machine basically saying no need to buy their A & B packets. The machine comes with 10 each so you can make ten 750ml carbonated water bottles.
I like making my own flavored water and control how much bubblies. Really easy to use. Don't need to buy CO2. I also bought citric acid for $6 and a box of Baking soda instead of buying the refills packets. Super easy just use 1Tbsp of each.
My advice would be to do the hack on you tube and purchase the food grade citric acid and baking soda in place of the packets. Works out to pennies a bottle to carbonate. A tablespoon of each is worth it.
Put the packets on a jeweler's scale. Packet A, citric acid, has a net weight of 11.0 grams (11.3 minus 0.3 empty packet weight). Packet B, sodium bicarbonate, has a net weight of 13.0 grams.
Yes! Just add 1 Tbsp citric acid crystals and 1 Tbsp baking soda. It works great for me. So much cheaper than the carbonators! You don't have to use their special packets, so ignore the company's lies.

By Buyer on September 16, 2021You can mix 1 tablespoon of citric acid and 1 tablespoon of baking soda in equal parts…. That is what is in their packets.
By KM on May 18, 2021You can make the mix yourself using citric acid and baking soda. Google the exact recipe.
By AR on August 27, 2020Yes, you use one Carbonator per bottle no matter what level you choose. That equals $0.40 - 0.44 per bottle (you can choose to subscribe and save). A CO2 tank will generally cost between $0.43-0.95 per bottle, depending on the level of carbonation you choose. There's no need to return clunky CO2 tanks, just order Spärkel Carbonators online to have them delivered.
By Spärkel on February 10, 2021Good Question! Spärkel Carbonators are made of a special granulation of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate.
