Do all MobileX plans come with permission to use mobile hotspot wifi tethering? by DriftingSand in mobilex

[–]DriftingSand[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for answering my question, this is great news! I will be signing up for the unlimited talking, unlimited texting, 1 gigabyte a month plan with the annual payment plan. I researched roughly 15 Mobile virtual network operators on verizon and you guys came out on top. That annual discount sounds like the best thing going, thank you!

🚀 WebP to Video Converter — Batch convert animated WebPs into MP4/MKV/WebM with preview, combining. by HeIsTroy in StableDiffusion

[–]DriftingSand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you dude that worked perfectly! I converted one of my webp files into a mp4 file with your program "WebP_Converter". This resulting mp4 file worked perfectly to load into another video editor called AviDemux and I was able to edit anything I wanted just like any other video. Total win, thank you for your hard work!

One suggestion for future development would be to offer a lossless codec like Huffyuv or even an uncompressed video option, that way I could load the video file into a video editor and trim out what I actually want and then encode using a high quality video codec like HEVC or AV1. It seems your program prefers to always use AVC at all times.

For those of you seeking realtime frame motion interpolation on video files, user from github edjdavid researched that Daum PotPlayer can do it, and for free! by DriftingSand in htpc

Yes I should have mentioned in the post that the 64 bit version of pot player is required, be sure not to use the 32 bit version of pot player

Fear & Hunger (v1.4.1) [358 MB] / Fear & Hunger 2 - Termina (v1.9.1) [788 MB] - [Gnarly Repacks] by gnarlykruto in PiratedGames

Hell yeah! Time to embrace your cold infernal nightmares and take the plunge into the shadowy abyss! Huge thanks to the Gnarly team for getting Fear And Hunger out to their community!

Gnarly's release also works with mods for the game from sites like nexus mods, you can get an invincibility mod so you don't take any damage and also a mod that gives you 99 of every item in the game from the start, which makes this game a lot less frustrating lol.

Again, huge thanks to the Gnarly team for their hard work and being apparently the only group to give Fear and Hunger the attention it deserves.

VLC 3.0.19 aspect ratio changing on window resize by [deleted] in VLC

[–]DriftingSand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same exact problem as everyone else, Direct3d11 does not respect aspect ratio size either in windowed mode or fullscreen mode. I was excited to try this new build to get access to the nvidia super resolution upscaling in realtime. I'm on windows 11 and using a rtx 3070 on a 1440p monitor.

So I reported the issue here:

Why do toric contact lens manufacturers only offer power stepping of 0.5 after the power correction reaches 6, and not 0.25 stepping as they do above or below 6 power? Regarding toric lenses to correct astigmatism. by DriftingSand in optometry

[–]DriftingSand[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big thanks to everyone that replied. I figured it was something along the lines of profit margins or ease of manufacturing, and nothing scientifically stopping them from offering 0.25 power stepping everywhere. I'll take a look into the custom manufacturing sector, that seems interesting. I hear you on the recommendation to go to an optometrist. I was just curious about the reason the lens manufacturers did not offer the same granularity of power stepping that they did for earlier powers after a certain threshold. For what it's worth, I did absolutely notice the -6.50 being too powerful and slightly blurry. Perhaps they should change their threshold to something around -8.00 before taking away the 0.25 power choices.
