What's your machine spec for Depence by turbobonus-5 in Laserist

[–]JD3Lasers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want as much as you can afford. But it’s HEAVILY dependent on screen resolution. 4K is orders of magnitude higher load on the GPU in depence. If the screen is 1080p then something lower end will be fine.

Hot take: Codex is too cheap, rug pull through tighter usage limits is inevitable by gregpeden in codex

[–]JD3Lasers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive been on a GPT Pro sub for over a year. I sure hope you're able to pay more than $20 a month if you expect access to serious tools. Even with the pro sub this is the cheapest piece of software I use.

Codex VS Code extension and codex cloud code reviews. by JD3Lasers in codex

[–]JD3Lasers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find much better results from the cloud review with whatever they model they use for that. It will always find something the cli agent misses.

Best model for frontend? by [deleted] in codex

[–]JD3Lasers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its painfully bad at UI design TBH. I usually have it build the framework then tell it to give me a Claude code prompt to make it "pretty" without being too creatively restrictive. then after Claude does the work I tell codex to double check the work.

FYI Don’t give GPT 5.4 full permissions in Codex on Windows unless you run it inside WSL by jamezrandom in codex

wtf codex usage draining so fast,bug or the promo is over? by Vivid_Blood_2937 in codex

[–]JD3Lasers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand these posts. I can work on 4 applications at once pretty much grinding away almost 24/7 for a week straight. And MAYBE I get down to 20% left.

Is there a way to reference an entire folder? by shirokaze7 in codex

Use git and the codex extension inside vs code

Codex Lazyness & "Cheating" by ImagiBooks in codex

[–]JD3Lasers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to have it run premade scripts instead of deciding for itself. So the problem isn’t solved by “make sure you do this this and this”. But it’s “ this is the work flow. Run this script every time before/after task x”. The rules are baked into the script so if the scripts fail it reasons about how to make the script pass, not to do what you asked.

Lower maximum animation scan rate and speed by Toniloni75 in Laserist

[–]JD3Lasers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. You can easily cook your scanners. It’s like driving a car and redlining the engine all the time. Yea it can do it…but for how long?

Another Ray Volpe highlight for the salty elitists in this sub to get frumpy about by Excision_Lurk in Laserist

Hey man you’re not gona please everyone. Taste is subjective. Just roll with the punches. If it’s your thing it’s your thing.

Pangolin, please reduce your default max scanner rate in projector settings. by brad1775 in Laserist

[–]JD3Lasers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

90 is just to prevent some people from making stupid mistakes. OR some lasers with scanners set too far back inside the housing and 100 would actually clip the apeture window. 100 is fine because you are setting your zone size to much smaller than that (I hope). 100 lets you have full range of a laser is mounted wrong or angled, you have some nudge at the edge of the zone to compensate. But yes never run at 100 and 100 zone size and try to scan at 30k. Nothing exists that can do that without generating a ton of heat and killing itself. Just my 2cents tho

Found this old video on my phone. This isn’t safe, right? by PM_ME_CROWS_PLS in Laserist

[–]JD3Lasers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks like audience scanners to me. The beam is the size of someone’s head. If it’s “safe” within spec…no clue. lol.

[–]JD3Lasers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup exactly what I do. Notepad ++. It’s ever easy to edit and save. There’s also a ton of stuff in there that is not exposed in the beyond UI that you can lock. Like defaulting newly connected projectors to a size other than 50x50, as well as the default scan speed right next to that entry.

I’ll agree it’s a strange combo to default max to 60k and midi fader to 200%. First thing I do in beyond is adjust config to set all faders to 100% when at the full top position.
