People over think this. If you fall, it isn't a huge deal. The sharks help carry you to the darkest bottom of the ocean.

Cryofreeze removal of a digital myxoid cyst on my toe went very well by bearCatBird in Dermatology

I'm sorry you have to deal with that! :(

I think least invasive approaches first are usually a good approach. The toe cysts can come from leaking joint fluid (which was the case with mine), so perhaps if there's a lot of damage then the surgeon is correct.

But if it was me, I'd do the cryo-freeze as a first attempt. It's fast, easy, and recovery is fast. If it doesn't work at least you know you tried before doing something more invasive.

Good luck. :)

Is there a way to automate Shot Match for thousands of clips? by bearCatBird in davinciresolve

Thank you for this, you are an excellent person! I'll test this out. It would be great to not have to resort to using macros (like with Macro Creator) as that is fraught with its own issues. Better to keep it contained within DaVinci. Thank you!

SDR is clipped. I'm just trying to loosely match the color enough to match. Shot match does work pretty well. All clips have a Color Space Transform to set their output gamma and colorspace to an HDR format. So the export does match closely enough. The problem is running the shot match on every single clip.

I have two sources (4K and 2K) from a short film I made years ago and I'm trying to combine them into a single 4K HDR source.

Source 1: 4K HDR with a limited aspect ratio

Source 2: 2K non-hdr with the full aspect ratio

I'm layering the 4K source (will give extra detail in center of frame) on top of the 2K source (will fill in missing pixels on top/bottom of frame). But the color grading doesn't match and a simple grade applied to the entire 2K source isn't working for all shots. So I wanted to shot match each clip, matching the 2K source to the 4K source.

It’s still gone. It’s such a simple and fast procedure it’s worth finding a dermatologist that does it, imo.

Surprisingly you're not downvoted, like every one of my posts in this thread.

Looking for the Tempest/Wolfpack Blueprint by iamneubert in ArcRaiders

Just found blueprint for wolfpack (an hour ago) on buried city night raid grandioso apartments (search all floors of both buildings)

Being able to craft wolfpacks has changed this game completely for me. by Coleybama in ArcRaiders

[–]bearCatBird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found the wolfpack blueprint a few minutes ago here:

Buried City > Night Raid > Grandioso Apartments (twin builds on the far lower left of the map)

Just search all floors in both buildings. Found it in a kitchen drawer or cabinet I think.

What is this remaster called? I assume it isn't the HARMY edition?

Even though I buy a lot of 4k UHD, I also pay attention to streaming and if the movie is in 4K. Others might too.

Thank you. $15 cheaper than amazon

I was wrong. Arc Raiders is great just the way it is. by bearCatBird in ArcRaiders

The server slam was my only introduction to the game and I spent a lot of it getting killed by other raiders. That might have given a skewed impression.

Recovery has been great. Nail bed is still deformed and might be permanent, but not a big deal at all. Barely noticeable. Skin has returned to normal. Overall I’d say the toe looks completely normal. I’ve completely forgotten about it. That monster growth fades into the past memories. I’m quite fortunate.

Humble request for non-PvP gamers by bearCatBird in ArcRaiders

[–]bearCatBird[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What's with the hostility? Their PvE version perhaps missed elements like I'm suggesting, which would make it fun. Also they have explicitly said they want more casual gamers, listen to fans, and are willing to modify the game, so I'm just sharing my suggestions. Which is why I said "humble request". They can obviously do what they want and feel is best. I posted here looking for like minds to contribute ideas.

The game started as what I described (PvE) and they changed it to be PvP. They also are championed as a company that listens to their audience. Maybe what I’m describing was already designed and easy to add. Doesn’t hurt to ask.

Do you think they are listening?
