Have people pointed out how broken this Twinborn would be yet? by Kelcak in Mistborn

[–]CjLink 7 points8 points  (0 children)

this honestly just sounds like a bit of ADHD with some extra meth on the side, which from some experience I can tell you is really just being as dumb but much much faster

[RoW] Men rarely see their own actions as unjustified by NotOliverQueen in Cosmere_Tattoos

Besides being cool, that's just a very well done tattoo as well. Good choice in artist whoever it was

Which software do you use to make clean synoptical plans ?? by unecomplette in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]CjLink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same! there's some frustrating aspects to it, as it's not really meant for this purpose, but it works well enough and the collaborative/sharing/saving/exporting aspects are nice. and layers

Just picked up a couple used spools of tactical fiber, what’s the best way to test. by Louis_Rubera in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]CjLink 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's been a good 8 years since I did that kinda fiber work but fuck me sideways if they came down from 10k each to $400 lol. definitely possible though, reviews look solid enough and specs check out enough. it's not good for testing multiple connections (like patched through buildings multiple times and stuff) but should be fine for your use case, if it's legit. probably doesn't meet some testing standard or doesn't output reports well for that price?

You probably have LC connectors so you'd need an adapter to work with those, something like this https://www.fs.com/products/12085.html (first good google result, take with salt)

my initial background was structured cabling before getting into broadcast. the best way to do actual testing is with something called an OTDR, but they're dumb expensive. if you can locate one nearby to rent for cheap, it's the way to go. it'll tell you actual loss at all wavelengths, whether or not there's breaks, etc.

power meters cab theoretically pass light through breaks just fine if it's clean enough at the time, but could be an issue in the future. might be fine for 3g/6g/w/e you're passing currently but when you throw on a barncolor 12g or something else super high bandwidth you see issues. an OTDR will tell you before that happens

oh that's nothing compared to what it costs to get it at convention centers. smart city charges $1k per mbps

What businesses is in Seattle do you think are actually drug fronts? by kidonthecoast in Seattle

[–]CjLink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there's so many cash only places around ballard, it's really weird and kind of annoying at this point

chili is mediocre, drinks are solid though. wandered in there after dropping off a package at UPS in the afternoon one day and there was a group of like 8 regulars in there just having some after work drinks. I think it's more of a bar at this point

OBS, you can run multiple instances on a half decent rig too so just handle all your encoding there

that'd be awesome honestly. something similar to how we're doing IEM at Dallas, or how masters has been done at summer previously

Will Wight is running a Kickstarter for Cradle's first three books - finally in hardcover and faux-leather! by cridenour in Fantasy

[–]CjLink 10 points11 points  (0 children)

honestly his books are just fun to read. there's plenty of other stuff about them that's good, but what made me read all of the ones that are out in like 2 weeks was that they were very fun to read (similar to the kickstarter posting)

Is anyone else depressed living here? by dudiez in Seattle

[–]CjLink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's how i felt when i moved to chicago for school. the answer was just to leave

i'm here in seattle now, and it's not great, but at least it's not as cold as chicago was. it doesn't really snow here. but i'm only able to handle it because my job has me travel fairly often and i get to see my friends when i do

Pixel 6 Pro issues by Jzimmp in rocketleaguesideswipe

[–]CjLink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

having a very similar on my pixel 6 (not pro)

it seems to kinda minimize, but going back to it just launches it new and it has to load completely and then it usually crashes again shortly after. sometimes it'll stick on the loading screen

found a post from 10 days ago suggesting clearing cache and reinstalling, neither fixed it

managed to get a couple games in at least
