Otherwise with the fader we would end up with the length of the previous selection already in place for the next one, and that could be annoying, i.e. if you need to select a long slice and then maybe a short one\n\nPS This update reminds me that we need to put some sort of controls for videos.

It is through such instants that he is capable of the supernatural. Whoever endures a moment of the void either receives the supernatural bread or falls.
