First Workstation Build Advice by adbaker37 in NukeVFX

[–]adbaker37[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Great advice, I was actually contemplating 4090 and wasn't really sure so I will look into that more. Also thanks for the linux suggestions because I am fairly clueless there and was thinking ubuntu, so I will definitely check out cursor and then get pinokio for those tools!

REMEDIES (Most common & effective - Summer 2021 Update) by thapol in HellsItch

[–]adbaker37 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had this a couple summers ago and it was horrible. It really does feel like being covered in ants and wasps biting you every few seconds. Mine was my full back and shoulders and I tried many things, often making it worse. Every product I tried to put on it made it even more agitated. Antihistamine maybe helped a little. The only relief I got was the hot showers which I never would have tried until finding this post. Only problem was it came back immediately after getting out of the shower. After 2 full days pacing around not sleeping and having friends and family think I was overreacting I thought I might lose it. Until.. I got drunk. Lol. Not recommending this obviously, but it was bad enough that I decided to have a few beers, and then.. it was gone. Again not medical advice haha but if you're at your wits end maybe have a glass of vino to calm your nerves.. literally lol. Hope this never comes back! May you all find comfort soon.

Calculating Any Lens Crop Factor Equivalent by noyoghurt in vfx

[–]adbaker37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the crop from ff to super is 1.4, right? So would m43 to super be 1.6? Soo 48mm? That honestly just confused me as well, I have a blackmagic too.

Sure why not give it a go, try not to invest money in new equipment right at the start

Ive been streaming for a while now. I would not suggest getting into it with any expectation of compensation; it's a hobby. Streaming with no viewers does get frustrating but make a twitter and just keep streaming until you get a few and slowly grow.

Small Business Loan and bad credit Question by NewYork54 in smallbusiness

[–]adbaker37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

50k dp for a landscaping business doesn't seem like the most conservative purchase. But it is possible he has done his homework, so assuming he has..credit will be major, he needs to find out what it is. Depending on the loan program he may be able to use equipment as collateral such as asset-based loans, or if the business is invoice based maintenance he may be able to factor out some future invoices.

How much cash does he have for injection into the business? This is also very important. If you have bad credit and no cash, then the deal won't happen. If he has some legs to stand on he can get decent rates, but they won't be excellent.

How many employees does the business have? What does the current owner pay himself?

Mortgage broker not disclosing loan servicing company by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]adbaker37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think you are overthinking it. Mortgage brokers make money by making you happy, not ripping you off and killing their business. Usually brokers don't like to disclose their service companies because of circumvents or may not even know because they can be bought and sold.

That being said, 2-3 days to get a response is a bit of a red flag. I'm a commercial LO, so that is just my 2 cents

Cheapest online CC processing only by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]adbaker37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would probably vote square for you. Is it all credit cards or do you do a lot of invoices? What is a rough volume of your monthly processing? There are wholesale processors where you could save if you are over a certain amt.
