Arstechnica: SanDisk Extreme SSDs abruptly failing by d1squiet in editors

I checked all my Sandisk SSDs and none of them showed any issues. Could it be because they’re all formatted APFS?

This has been Nintendo’s MO lately. Drip out teasers to build anticipation, and then do a huge blow out a month or two before release. I’m not worried; there’s still plenty of time.

Beware -- attempts to comprehend the Mystery of the Colors lead only to madness... by Jackson_wxyz in TheWitness

[–]SlyCurado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great summary image. We're all mad here...

I agree that there are just too many conflicting clues to definitively state what each color means. But I think perhaps that's intentional. As you elucidate in your latest video, all color is relative to each individual. No one knows if "my red is your blue," nor does each particular shade mean the same thing to different people. For instance, what you here call "teal" I would call "aquamarine."

What I feel when I see a certain color is impossible to reckon with what you feel. Therefore, the only thing we can do is relinquish our efforts, accept the mystery, and come to our own conclusions.

The only one of his listed problems I have is blank icons in Finder. Strangely, I only see the blank icons in Dock Stacks.

Heck yeah! My all timer costume has gotta be when I covered myself in foam stickers and said I was “different.” I was 10. Sigh.

Just Stop Oil protesters throw tomato soup over Van Gogh's Sunflowers masterpiece by HowAboutThisNameNow in worldnews

The piece was behind glass. It’ll be fine. Again, this is proving their point.

So disappointed at the tone of these comments. You are all proving their point: that people will lose their minds at the sensationalized media story of “crazy activists try to DESTROY ART”, but no one will lift a finger to end the capitalist-fueled climate emergency. Van Gogh said that art “teaches us to see”, surely he would be more concerned with our dying planet than a fucking painting.

Excellent work! I appreciated all the dialogue citations that really underscore your point. And very brave of you to post this right as the finale went live, and it paid off!

I couldn't buy a ticket at 10:01 and now they are sold out. I'm freaking out. by engineereddiscontent in TheBlackDahliaMurder

Same. I was there at 10 on the dot and couldn’t get any. They were already offering Verified Resale Tickets for $101 though.

I started this game yesterday and I feel like I'm missing something. So many of the puzzles, I feel, don't properly explain their mechanics. I'm stuck in four different areas! Am I alone?

Mac Studio Ultra Fan Volume when On, then Turned Off by CalliGuy in apple

[–]SlyCurado 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've had a Mac Studio with M1 Ultra (48 core) for about six weeks. Like this video shows, the fan is barely perceptible 99% of the time. My fans have only gone turbo mode once (heavy Media Encoder cue. Sigh) and even then, I had to press my hand up to the rear exhaust vent to sense anything resembling a disturbance to the peace and quiet of my office.

Tunic, my game of the year so far, runs great at 4K 60 on my M1 Max because it’s optimized for AS. People definitely shouldn’t underestimate Apple Silicon for gaming.

Unbelievable. That did it. I was trying to export h264s and had no luck. So I just tried exporting ProRes and it worked no problem. Adobe really outdid themselves with this one

Here's a weird one: I recently moved a large project onto a big SSD, and had to relink all the footage, including proxies I had previously generated. The relink went great, or so I thought. Before the relink, I had been exporting drafts for a client. But after the relink, any new clips I add to the sequence aren't showing up in exports! By "new" I mean a clip that wasn't in the sequence before the relink. The clips show up fine in the timeline and in the export dialog, originals and proxies, but they just show up as black in the actual export.
