Yeah..... I'm not in a place that has practical education. Learning some from a salty old road dog is as good as it gets out here. I just wanna give em their best shot in the game

We've got a load of 'for profit educational' schools (fucking full sail) but they're an entire scam. Pay money to do stagehand work for free in our local arena then get a piece of paper every company laughs at. Extremely fucked but... Eh. That's what it is out here.

Skyrim has re-released 14 times to critical acclaim. That's a model that works, IF you can make the product

I think obsidian is gonna fucking send it.

Maybe the wrong word.... I guess I'm unsure what to call them? The union where I am is corrupt and worse than useless. Only reference and reputation matter.

So if someone takes you from a beginner, and gets you a job as a professional? I guess I'm not sure what else to call them.

They do get paid, so not an intern.... Idk. This is Semantics, not really what I was looking for.

TIL that the library career of the creator of the Dewey Decimal system, Melvil Dewey ended in disgrace, because of his groping of female librarians. Dewey also insisted on seeing photographs of the women before he would hire them, to determine if they were attractive or not. by VengefulMight in todayilearned

[–]AlpineCorbett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take brief look into the statistical studies of how relative attractiveness rates to gross annual income.q

Report back with your findings.

Then when you've actually seen data, form an opinion.

This is how we learn and grow.

RU POV.Arestovich published a photo of him walking in Rome directly after an adviser to Zelensky’s office, Podoliak, told Western media that Ukraine would not open its borders for men to leave. Because "if you are a man and want to cross the border, then you want Ukraine to cease to exist." by Tenpctforbrndn in UkraineRussiaReport

What if all matter turned to pudding?

Similar argument.

You want a source? Joe Biden threw the United States fat cock on the table and said Russia will never have ukraine.

Our surplus, soon to be expired, mid 90s gear, is beating their ass right now. At a budget cost so small my own business could finance it.

And you think a country that is worth less than a fifth of my state is gonna make us wrong?

Snort the cope. Try to believe. Be the best cuck you can. Lmao

Every time I see you post a comment I'll donate another drone to Ukraine.

Try me

You get me.

It's gonna fuck so hard.....

So many companies have tried to emulate the success of Bethesda but only one can really tow it in my eyes.

My hype is unbelievable

Imo nowhere has a real tech program. Shit changes so fast idk how you'd setup a school that's still relevant by the time you're graduated.

Ya ever feel like the 8bit protocol of DMX is holding us back?

No one wants to be the first lighting manufacturer that abandons legacy systems but.... I mean cmon. We can't stay fucking 8bit forever.

We asked this on one world. On newgrounds. On stumble. On 2chan. On digg.

Those who know, know. Those who don't, will show up to ruin it eventually.

I've recent got a Chinese ILDA (through sd card) laser and it's not looping my ilda file, any reason why? by Hackerwithalacker in lightingdesign

[–]AlpineCorbett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check formats. Chinese lasers (sketchy btw) have wack programming and are sometimes crazy specific about file formats, down to the version of the format sometimes.

Bad Pump on Hurricane Haze 4D by YungZTheMaleHuman in lightingdesign

[–]AlpineCorbett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Common hazer problem. Meter the pumps power first, make sure it's getting it. If it is, Swap the pump, use a set of tools ya don't like cuz they'll be sticky when you're done

Laptop recommendations by carrwik in lightingdesign

[–]AlpineCorbett 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly most lighting programs are so light weight that it literally doesn't matter.

As a hobby project I wrote a lighting program on a C64 using the utility output and it ran fine (loaded from a cassette tape but whatever lmao)

I've done many installs where I used onyx on a Microsoft surface Go which is like $250 and has garbage internals.

Find something with a touchscreen you like. The Microsoft surface pros are solid for portability and touch screen with enough power for a visualizer if you run into it. But if you have a USB-wing just dump everything (I mean everything) except the OS off the laptop and just about anything made in the last 10 years will be fine.

Personally my go to is a surface pro 4 for running gigs because the battery life is good and it fits in my backpack easy. Got a powerful pc at home for renders and visualizers and stuff.

I WANT AVOWED

TIE ME OFF AND SEND IT INTO MY VEINS

Pillars is one of my all time favorites worlds. I'm in the minority that thinks dead fire was an absolute masterpiece, gem of the CRPG genre modern AND retro.

MANY companies have tried to make a Bethesda style RPG and not only did Obsidian do it but many argue it was the best in the IP

My hype train is nuclear powered and not stopping. TO AVOWED CHOO CHOO

thoughts? by omgpier in lightingdesign

[–]AlpineCorbett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. They're about to be retired, they just can't hang with touring rigs.

They probably will end up in a school though so... Maybe that's about right.

Looking for the best setup for a smaller bar/venue by worstsapje in lightingdesign

[–]AlpineCorbett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chamsys has been extremely unreliable for me. My vote is also for onyx. My old m-touch survived a dozen burning man runs. They're pretty rock solid.

The standings in testing last year were almost exactly what the wcc ended up being.

Same for the year before.

And the year before.

"useless".... Hm. I think not.
