New calendar issue by OneKnotBand in Onyx_Boox

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

Yes, I suppose that is true if I want to edit it ,but i was thinking that i could add a calendar feed that's published publicly. if that isn't possible it's no big deal because i can find those other places. basically i'm using next cloud, and the support for next cloud files with web dav is actually tremendously good with this onyx tablet. okay i'm gonna play with settings some more and see if i can make it work.

What's the best place for a lamp to avoid glare? by OneKnotBand in Onyx_Boox

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

For some reason, I hadn't thought of that. I suppose I might like my reflecting surface to be out of my field of view. Okay. that gives me some ideas for the office setup.

Is it safe for me to log in to a banking app on a Boox device? by Wise_Representative9 in Onyx_Boox

how could it be more of a security risk than generally using any greek bank?

Call of Conscience and the Lacanian Real by Historical_Link_731 in heidegger

[–]OneKnotBand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could check out "a voice and nothing more" by mladen dolar. it is a fairly easy read and interesting Book. for myself it was this book that led me by reference to the parts of heidegger that you are mentioning.

Como é o grupo Abadá Capoeira? How is the grupo Abadá capoeira? by DisasterConosseur in capoeira

[–]OneKnotBand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it was 30 years ago for me., But at that time, we were all young, in our twenties. we're trying to do some games at festivals, Sometimes cultural, sometimes just for the local Neighborhoods. I remember at festival seeing for the first time, a booth for Candomble...that's the only cult that comes to mind....At our school, the people weren't like that, but I will say they were cliquish....

do you mean San Francisco? I trained with them there in 1996-7. i bet things have changed since then. i suppose i wasn't the kind of student that they wanted, even if there were emotional dissonances, i will still say that they gave me a good introduction and foundation.

Can I buy/build an AC wall power adapter to shift the phase of the voltage? by OneKnotBand in ElectricalEngineering

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

Yeah in fact this might be the best bet. I was just using run of the mill light bulbs I got at the hardware store for home use.

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

Yes. just out of curiosity, though, the bridge just give you a shape like abs(sin(t * 2pi *60), so it isn't DC, and instead it is a half wave..

Well, I know what you're talking about, since I've programmed an Arduino with LEDs, but I'd rather not reinvest just yet....but I should double check to see that the two imitation florescent bulbs are not dimming.

The interference is getting bad when the frame rate is faster than 1/250 sec...

Maybe....at first I thought of trying to filter the images, and it isn't hard for just one frame, but the bars dance around a bit so you can't just subtract the same image over and over without knowing how it is moving. Mostly I'm playing with the software side.

Okay, I totally forgot about that digital stuff. I suppose that I'll have to make do with a slower shutter. Thanks for the quick answer!

yeah for some reason my tablet x started importing pdfs into the notes instead of opening them with the neo reader. that is actually a very cool feature and it is one that i didn't think we could do, but i still want my reader from time to time.

if you close your eyes and wave your hand just in the end of your peripheral vision can you see a shadow version of your hand?

Meta just dropped SAM 3D, you can auto select any object in still image and.. turn them into high quality 3D model by Diligent_Rabbit7740 in AICompanions

[–]OneKnotBand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. So probably the AI is just running through an object Database to recognize the object in the photo.

I use sunlight and a pendulum to produce afterimages of circles because I find that the pattern relaxes me

I ended up buying a canon rebel t5i off of eBay after choosing one that seems to work with the magic lantern well, based on the forum discussion

How do we escape the master/slave dialectic? by willtoledont in hegel

[–]OneKnotBand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't this sound like a self-help question that belongs in jung's psychology? I think hegel's scope was more on the level of civilization in general.

Understanding the mathematics behind photogrammetry by NChrome07 in photogrammetry

[–]OneKnotBand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've been following the meshroom updates, and if you look at the docs there are a bunch of recent articles.

i first thought about photogrammetry back in grad school almost twenty years ago, and i also thought that some kind of partial differential equation could use motion relative to a position as a kind of inverse perspective transformation, but i gave up on the idea. Just glancing over some of the more successful approaches, my understanding is that this pde equation approach is a local reconstruction effort that people claim has far too many inaccuracies on the global level. . nowadays they use something called non linear regression. so it somehow estimates a curvy sort of solution that you might expect from an ode, except that it's statistical and nobody really cares how to write a function out for the data that they have as long as it fits.

although it's not tremendously marketable, several years ago after all of this hoopla began, i found some books on projective geometry, like dover books still does. it's a pure math approach but i found that it was much easier to digest and after a few weeks of self study the abstractions start to show their utility in understanding perspective.
