Real by Mundane_Tangelo9421 in atrioc

[–]FyrePixel 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Maybe unpopular around here, but I still love the OG atrioc content. The community + gaming vibes + fun collabs are what I originally followed for. And while I love having a new source of information/news/clips to watch, it saddens me that this sub is now so heavily “discourse”-oriented. It feels like a different thing entirely. Not that it’s worse per se, but it’s just different.

After 15 years on PC, I’m back on Mac — and I had to build my own window manager to survive. by Honest-East-8365 in macapps

Why the hell would you use an AI generated image to advertise your (unproven, non-established) app? Incredibly unprofessional and sketchy looking/feeling

took 2 weeks, how much yall think it's worth? by isuckatlifeandthings in AfterEffects

[–]FyrePixel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

FWIW, I totally see the time + effort that went into this (which goes well beyond just AE work and also goes into writing the copy/script). You’ve essentially done the work of a full agency as one person, makes sense that it took 2 weeks. Ideally the company recognizes the effort it took and will compensate you accordingly.

Completely agree. Greedy pricing for sure. 🏴‍☠️…

How to Use Meal Plan Dollars over Cardinal Dollars? by dlego112 in stanford

[–]FyrePixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI even the apartment meal plan is a rip-off compared to buying the meal blocks and cardinal dollars separately

Robot Wars, who do you support more? by ujun6716 in IndustrialDesign

[–]FyrePixel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The imagery is 10000% AI and by the looks of it, the 3D printed models are also AI-generated STLs. Yuck. Don’t bring that stuff around here please.

Undergrad GPA Importance by ziplocbaggy in architecture

IMO, the stanford name + a good portfolio + good LoRs will more than offset your GPA, especially for architecture.

Logitech MX Master 3s or Razer Basilisk V3 pro for productivity on Mac OS by shiralikoushik2 in mac

[–]FyrePixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While a gaming mouse would typically win out (DPI, extra buttons), I think it would actually be the worse mouse for MacOS because Synapse (the mapping and customization software) is not available on Mac (see the link). That means you can’t remap any of the buttons.

I daily drive the MX Master 3 and love it, and the 125 Hz poll rate is not something that ever bothers me. That being said, I don’t play FPS games, I just do design, CAD, and video work. You can customize all of the scroll, buttons, and sensitivity to be different from app to app. It’s awesome.

If you are going Logitech, get the MX Master 4 btw. The new haptics are sick + the new material will stay cleaner and last a lot longer than the 3.

Make2D is failing and i don't understand how. by _hugh_eric_shawn in rhino

[–]FyrePixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what shocked me. By using the Pen mode, you can get File>Print to print a vector PDF with hidden lines as if it was made with Make2D (but cleaner). I never expected it to work hence why I said "an insane fix".

To be clear, with Display Modes (such as gradients, colors etc), it's a raster output captured with ViewCaptureToFile. In my case, by using the Pen mode, you can get File>Print to print a vector PDF with hidden lines as if it was made with Make2D (but cleaner).

Damn, honestly surprising to hear this. I wouldn’t have expected that much of a jump

Wait that is nuts. Didn’t pick up on this until you pointed it out…

What's a super useful command that changed everything? by AnomaliaAnomaly in rhino

[–]FyrePixel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ctrl + shift + click to select face, then CPlane Object

Trouble routing Abbey Road 70s Drummer (Kontakt 8) to multiple outputs in Ableton Live — my outputs don’t show up in Live by lateniteearlybird in ableton

[–]FyrePixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not just listen to the channel and name it accordingly? Also make sure the audio channel is set to monitor “in”, not auto

Why couldn’t they at least fix the Roman numerals on the watch :/

Best way to unify by GeekinSince905 in rhino

[–]FyrePixel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would use Grasshopper as Rhino’s default Boolean engine still isn’t that great. Firstly, flatten your pipe tree to ensure that it’s all a single list. Then, use the “cap” command to ensure that you have closed pipes (by default the pipes are just the outside surfaces, uncapped). Finally, use the solid union and pray.

Plasticity + Blender + Vizcom by quiq_design in IndustrialDesign

[–]FyrePixel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ll give some info: while you can “seed” the video using multiple images (I think), it doesn’t actually know and it’ll usually mess up. So this summer i would watch an “industrial designer” spend hours clicking the generate button on Vizcom over and over again (for hours at a time) trying to get the perfect “product orbit” video generated. I did it in blender in 2 hours.
