For recording streaming lectures on a Mac, users recommend OBS Studio as a reliable screen recorder. It is compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux, offering customizable settings for noise reduction, input device selection, and output quality. While it can produce near-HD video quality, users should be aware that file sizes can be large, approximately 10 GB for a one-hour recording. QuickTime is noted as less effective due to its lack of features like an easy timer.

When I used to record online lectures, my settings produced near-HD videos, but file size was about ~10 GB for 1-hour videos.

Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
