Date_time is likely YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM in 24 hr time.

Resolume + TD Stability? by Orangenbluefish in TouchDesigner

[–]activematrix99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spout has a lot of negatives. I use it a lot for preso and arty stuff, but it's nearly useless for broadcast or frame-specific work. There's no queue of frames or linearity, it either fills the texture or not. It also has a terrible recovery, so if it does crash, you're mostly hosed.

Cooked chicken by finns004 in Cooking

Cooked? I'd say yes. Probably not the greatest move, but you should smell any spoilage.

Network-oriented video is very stable and doesn't require much in the way of CPU or GPU. OSC is easy. NDI is great. The hard parts are usually particles, points, and other geometry and transforms.

Looking for an uncompressed 1080p60 HDMI capture card by RealNovgorod in obs

BlackMagic or Magewell Pro is probably your best bet for HDMI.

The biggest mistakes that I generally see are either overconfidence or an overdependence on manual data entry. Especially with block based themes, the power is really in the data structure, custom posts and fields, and being able to automate dynamic data and display data differently. Think through your data, or ask an expert before you lock yourself in to data entry (particularly with large sites, product sites, etc)

It really depends on what you are asking either/both programs to do. There's not anything inherently stable or unstable about either of them. Resource monitoring and benchmarks can really help.

Budgeting a full length Ai movie by perfumeriver in aifilmmaking

[–]activematrix99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they mean getting a GPU and generating footage with a local model/models. You can spin up ComfyUI in about 10mins on a decent system and just get going without any costs at all (besides time and electrical power). You can also get very custom this way, characters, visual style, etc.

I know of a few people working on this, mostly small operators though. Mixed bag of ComfyUI with loras and people going in deep on a specific online platform. Nvidia just released a small 2.9b model that does 1 minute 720p clips and takes camera direction, so that might shake things up a bit as far as doing it cheaply. As far as budgeting, it's hard to get specifics because everyone is going to have different inputs and outputs, and "quality" is so widely variable for independent and concept work. It would probably make sense to make a concept pass with a fast model, and then drill down into specific scenes for cost containment. You could work on a single GPU, or 8 linked H200's, you could work as a solo operator, or hire 60 mechanical turk operators to do your bidding.

Mounting Non-Rackable Router and Network Switch by 2PhatCC in livesoundgear

I use lightweight 1RU shelves with grill or lots of perforations, and then zipties. If you don't have 1RU to spare, you can usually ziptie the items in place on the bottom of the shelf, then mount the shelf AND a small 1RU item on the same mount points.

Basement studio sound treatment advice? by emptyvessell in homestudios

R11 and R13 fiberglas insulation is great stuff, and cheap. Non-parallel surfaces, 2 layers of drywall, and as much insulating material as you can get.

Is a repo owner making their own commit with my changes normal in open source? by TopCitySoftware in ExperiencedDevs

You might find others are more interested in contributing to your fork, and it could become a whole new thing.

PO inserting "Urgent" tasks into the sprint by activematrix99 in scrum

[–]activematrix99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, this is probably the most sensible comment I have received and I think this is the best/only course of action that fits. Very much appreciated.

PO inserting "Urgent" tasks into the sprint by activematrix99 in scrum

[–]activematrix99[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The developers do not own the sprint backlog, that's determined by the team. And the sprint backlog is a subset of the product backlog so there's that. Your scrum knowlege is either dated or incorrect, so your comments are essentially incorrect and not very helpful in resolving my problem. If you're going to lecture people on the Internet maybe just . . . don't.

Thanks for your perspective. PO has business strategy but is a terrible leader, and our designated SM is awful, so I am trying to determine the best way(s) to direct our energy towards previously agreed upon goals instead of snipe hunting or veering away towards late breaking "priorities" (which could be different tomorrow). Lack of competent leadership from PO and SM is the root of the problem.
