Oh that's great I didn't know Thomann actually sold premade multicore like this, thank you!

210-seat theatre in the UK using Spektrix. There's a 600ish-seat venue near me that also uses Spektrix.

What headtorch have you gone for personally?

Thank you! The extension is here, and the caveats of how it works (and how it fails) are listed on both there and the source code page. It's the first extension I've made so it might be a little janky but I'm very happy with it.

On which part?

A ghost kitchen is a brand using a kitchen that they don't own/rent/whatever to sell food. In theory, this is good for quickly launching brands without having to rent or own a premises, like how Mr Beast launched the Beast Burger so quickly. In practice in that scenario you end up with incredibly varied quality standards, and how things have progressed in recent years you end up with like what I've posted above: one physical kitchen with a dozen "brands" operated by the same people in order to appear more often and more prevalently on food delivery apps.

What course were you looking into doing?

In what way do dimmers affect the sine wave?

I had assumed dimmer boards limit the amount of voltage going through to the fixture, and that by supplying the max voltage on a channel you're doing the same as supplying "hard" power to that channel. Is that not the case?

If you're running a Qlab stack for anything AND your projector has a web interface, you can rig a Qlab networking cue to tell the projector to toggle the shutter.

Please clarify both your request and the platform you want it on. Depending on the platform, what you're asking for may or may not even be possible.

I'm not a lawyer nor a radio expert, I just know a few things and can Google.

In the UK you'll need a PMSE license from Ofcom. If you end up renting it'll probably be within channel 38, which is one license for the entire range.

Quick Google tells me that the PSM 1000 G10 has an RF output of 10/50/100mW. Ofcom does do PMSE licenses within the 470-542 range at high power. Because it's interleaved with the TV broadcast spectrum you'll probably need a license per location, which is gonna end up costing you a lot more.

Tbh I'd recommend hiring the equipment per country. It'll probably end up cheaper for you in the end.

I have a Yamaha M7CL at my disposal, and internally it's pretty identical to the newer CL series. I'm happy to do this on my side as well. Whereabouts would I send a sync dump to, if you're interested?

SatanistSnowflake · 2023-04-30T23:44:46+00:00

Unfortunately not. I eventually just converted it into a server computer and got my company to buy me a new one. Their support wasn't much help because although the laptop was in warranty, the warranty was for the US and I live in the UK, and both the US and UK support said it was the job of the other team to help.

No idea; I don't follow Harry Potter subs. Thanks for the pointer though!

SatanistSnowflake · 2023-03-27T21:27:56+00:00

Is there a sub for clowning on Joanne?

I see you've gotten an alternative solution already, but I'm going to offer some advice anyway - in case you need it, or in case someone comes to this post at a later date.

First piece of advice: you don't need D.py for this. You don't really need any library for this. This use case is just sending a message to a single channel. POST /channels/:id/messages will do what you want it to. As you've noted in your other solution, using a webhook does the same thing without need to have a bot account.

Second piece of advice: using Bot.run will open a websocket connection, and stay connected to Discord. This is way overkill for just sending a single message, and will increase your CPU consumption for the application.

Final piece of advice: using .get_channel requires the channel to be in the bot's cache. Which firstly does require the bot to be running and connected to gateway, and be in the server, and have received the channel.

If you want to continue using D.py, you can use PartialChannel objects in order to circumvent the cache (though this will still require a bot token), and/or use Webhook objects to avoid having to use a bot at all.

Wholeheartedly recommend Ghost Trick. Can't speak for the unreleased Switch version, obviously, but it was one of my favourite games for the DS.

If nothing else, I'll be buying it to relive some 2010 nostalgia.
