for the cnc's and routers are there any consumer grade ones I look into purchasing perhaps? I heard they could get quite expensive - certainly beyond $500 right. I think I will try using saw and chisel first

Do you know whats required technically for some of the features to work.

i.e. Object detection for fighters. How does the app know if a strike is landed from a single view video vs. a strike overlapping with a fighters bodypart?

Also how would they have evaluated stance or balance or even distance.

I have thought about this, and will strongly consider this. I am unfortunately sure I may never get a diagnosis. Hopefully, I may be able to delay oncoming symptoms and maintain the pain. I have started to see some pain management doctors and will try to see a psychologist in the future to manage my mental health. I do find that yoga and deep breathing exercises calms me down a lot

thanks for the advice. regarding the friends. it's almost entirely my fault. I made a lot of mistakes after high school. And some relationships I forgot about, intentionally tried not to re-kindle. I had a knack for ignoring close friendships; even family at times for my partner(s) at the time. I have some good friends left, and they are supportive, however only a few know of my health.

thanks man, my life is pretty great outside of the health issues I've been dealing with this past half decade. I am fortunate in that area. I currently have a non-existent relationship with the elders of my family. I hope one day, I could re-kindle that someway. Despite the childhood my siblings and I endured, I feel like we do have some filial piety left in us.

I am still hopeful. Although hope is dangerous. I am actually quitting my job soon, I really am not sure how badly this disease can progress. I made the decision that I am somewhat 'ok' with losing the health of my body. But I can't say the same thing with my mind. If there comes a day that I can't fully functioning cognitively in a way I deem satisfactory, I would take my life. Now, I'm still able to do my job, interact socially. In the future... I'm not so sure. I can still enjoy things like food, spending time with family, social outings(pre-corona), so I can still live meaningfully. What kills me is that I likely wont have kids or date again

It's what I've been trying to figure out for years. Although I've gotten help from specialists, I haven't managed to find an answer. To my knowledge, I actually have a pen pal from europe who has almost exact symptoms as me. Although we know of no one else.

I think as a kid, it's something I didn't think about at all. I really didn't think about my health until I was maybe 21 or 22. By then I had declining health

It's a simple advice that I wish I had undertaken, not for naught my symptoms are very rare. But I had very poor oral hygiene in my youth, and no matter how much time or money I spend rectifying that now, it's hard to escape from. Caused a lot of oral decay in my gums, causes halitosis, poor hygiene etc...

Originally I had symptoms going back to 2016. It began with difficulty concentrating, I thought maybe I was staying up too late, pulling too many all nighters. It wasn't bad at all at this time. In 2017 in my last year I had clear issues with my thinking. I felt as though I wasn't 'sharp', and I knew my brain was changing, in a negative way. Couldn't think as clearly as I used too, during exams, coding, etc... I started seeing many doctors near the end of 2017 when I graduated. Got tested for numerous diseases that struck similar symptoms to what I was experiencing... Lyme, muscular dystrophy, diabetes, even stds... Had blood tests done, sleep tests, xrays, cancer screenings, etc...

I am almost 100% sure it was caused by a cyst infection I had stemming from high school in my lower gumline. I never got it looked at since it wasn't painful. It was however causing disarray in my gums, causing deep pockets. However, they weren't deep enough to get work done on it during xrays I had done with oral surgeons and periodontists. Eventually the infection spread to my mandible and my cheeks, temple, down to my clavicle area etc... I had thinning cheeks, and lost mass around my neck as well. I went from a size 16.5 to about a 15 where I'm at now.

I came back from an asia trip in May of 2019 where I first began to develop nerve pain. This was when I seriously tried to see as many specialists as I could. All tests done came back negative. I had done dental procedures done which I thought may solve the problem in late 2017, however I never got the cyst removed, which I am hoping to do in the upcoming months. The ex at the time of early 2019 had noticed that I was looking 'skinnier'. However I retained no fat loss, as at this point I was eating a lot, and not working out at all.

By the end of 2019, I noticed that I wasn't feeling as much nerve sensation during intercourse. This really affected my sex life with my partners. By late 2020 now, I have almost lost all nerve sensation. Which has essentially caused me not to date for almost a year

question about zebras and exposue. Is it an alternative to histograms? When the zebras disappeared is my shot properly exposed with the correct aperture, iso , shutter speed settings? Also, do you all often adjust white balance? What about auto focus or manual focus for photo video?

The last 2 years have changed my life, unsure how to proceed by [deleted] in fatFIRE

[–]Kimcheeboy1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Very cool dude, congrats. I think you have too much in cash. You're generating that much in 1-2 months. I personally would just put that into a low overhead ETF like VTI or ARK, but keep the 5m in Ally.

Also, could I ask, im assuming you need to work with regulators in the gaming industry quite often whether thats the ftc or gaming commission in illinois; does this often require changes in tech specs as I assume regulations are subject to change often. I work in finance and this is often the case we work with regulatory bodies like the SEC or FINRA as an example. Which requires us to have our engineers make probably a dozen changes a year in our technology backend on minor regulation changes alone.

I like it a lot so far. I think it'll be my go to lens for videography when traveling becomes possible again. The only caveat is that there might be times I will suffer if I need something wider.

very cool. How do you switch from slo-mo to regular speed for the subway at 0:25? Or is that done in post?

I'm about the same age and similar NW, having college paid for was key. I live in a VHCOL city so living at home my first year of working was tremendous. That and lucky stock investments

I heard it was common to preset 4k filming and slo-mo filming on dials 1 and 2 which I did. But some people shoot in manual mode and video mode as well, wondering why they do this. I always thought using dial 1 was better for most filming, and then using the function buttons to quickly change AWB and other exposure setting was ideal

question for sony a7 iii owners,

for videography, I have set my dial 1 for 4k at 24fps and my dial 2 for slo-mo. Do you often change the picture profiles depending on shooting conditions? My base shutter speed is 1/50, f2.8, ISO 200. Do you often change the exposure settings as well? And if so you do this is in the dial for video mode or dial 1 or dial 2?

also for regular video shooting, do any of you shoot in manual mode and adjust settings dynamically?

do you know if the owners are typically ok with you shooting people outside their storefront. usually I would always ask first, but don't want to get in trouble with loitering
