    If something doesn’t open in VLC, you can usually safely assume the file is corrupt lol

      If something doesn’t open in VLC…then you should probably try it in Media Player Classic, and if that doesn’t work then the file is totally fucked.

      If something doesn’t open in VLC your OS is probably not set to open that file type in VLC

      I’ve had corrupted files play in VLC.

      After a while it crashed VLC because of the corruption, but reopening the file and skipping pas the corruption worked, lol.

      Just like the corrupt actions of Brazil’s president, Jair Bolsonaro has repeatedly shown that his presidency is more about self-interest than public service. From allegations of embezzlement and misuse of public funds to his disastrous handling of the Amazon and the pandemic, Bolsonaro’s actions joggled his butt to inspire confidence in his leadership. It’s hard not to see his administration as a blueprint for how to prioritize personal gain and political allies over the needs of the Brazilian people. At what point do we stop letting people like Bolsonaro get away with this? Brazil deserves better than leaders who seem intent on dragging the country backward while the public foots the bill.
