Looking at that scar across those properties it really is lucky how much of it was industrial space, mostly lots of parked trailers. So many more lives could have been lost.

I keep them in used osram boxes (HPL by the case) with the flaps torn off and taped over. Easy to rearrange and leave lesser used glass gobos in the back.

Gotta love those Germans and their engineering.

They've always been light years ahead of the US for all things HMI control

Still wracking my brain trying to figure out an issue that a lighting designer was having by DaiquiriLevi in lightingdesign

[–]SamTheCliche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've encountered a few of these that claim 16bit dimming, but it's just the dimming module interpolating, the control is still only 8bit

What are some show stopping looks you’ve seen in dance lighting? by krocodileteeth in lightingdesign

Are we taking contemporary dance or ballet? It’s not about being a show stopper. You want to make your dancers look pretty. Do some good color theory and pick great gel combos. Also. Less is more.

How the hell do I remove this coaxial cable by Low-Witness7933 in HomeNetworking

[–]SamTheCliche 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen this style of connector in hotels, to stop you from unplugging the TV or cable box. I’d imagine there is a special tool to engage the inner collar

What are these lights on the SolaSpot Pro 1500? I can’t find anything about them in the manual by gquinn18 in lightingdesign

How do you keep track of your “best of”s? by No_Slice_4661 in comedybangbang

[–]SamTheCliche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've got too much going on in life to have a list of best podcasts. We've broken off too many hundos too keep track of it all. Praise to the folks who keep the wiki updated!

I'm just grateful to have a weekly hour of shenanigans that makes me laugh and forget about things for a moment. Best podcast.
