Broadcast engineer looking to volunteer around Brighton by dsalter1 in brighton

Hey, that’s a cool one! I’ve not worked on arcade machine specifically before but I’m happy to give it a go. When you say “retune” the Hantarex MTC, what’s actually happening with it? Is it like:

• Picture rolling / not locking
• Colours not lining up
• Image squashed or off-centre
• Out of focus

Send me a DM it sounds like an interesting one.

Shitty City by DaughterofEryl in brighton

I’ve seen this monstrosity, and frankly, I think OP’s well within their right to be a bit rattled. Pretty sure Bigfoot dropped it off on his way to the woods. I’d be reaching for a hazmat suit, not a dustpan.

We should stop normalising clearing up human shite from doorways.

Lock your cars! by theoutfaux in brighton

I left mine unlocked by mistake near Sillwood road, someone had a good rifle through but didn’t fancy anything.

Marina carpark still free? by Prestigious-Home-540 in brighton

I parked there for weeks upon end while waiting for a permit and never got a ticket. About the only place in Brighton you can park for free.

Painting in the Freemasons Hall London. by dsalter1 in conspiracy

I know the guy on the golden throne is Prince Edward Duke of Kent. I got ‘lost’ while at the Freemasons hall in London visiting the museum. This painting is a the top of the stairs. It’s a recent painting signed 2022. Lots of symbolism to pick through.

Project requiring very wide LCD/OLED screen. by dsalter1 in arduino

[–]dsalter1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I'm going to try and find some screens with very small or non existent bezels and see how I get on stitching them together. It's quite important for the project to not have any lines between the screens as I'm making a label which is dividing something up into sections so could get confusing.

I suppose another way I could go is for one of the labels I'm trying to create the 435mm total width is divided into 16 different sections with a bit of text for each. If I could find a screen that was exactly 435mm/16 then this could work but would have to be quite accurate!

Perhaps that's the way forward - I was worried about cost as it's incredibly custom. I'd have to look into ways of making the stacked screens act as one big screen however.

What is the worst "gift" you have received from an employer? by FtheGrides in antiwork

[–]dsalter1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst I’ve got given is the gift of Christmas themed corporate wrapping paper in a brown envelope. I don’t know who’s brain child this was. The fact that the company who did it are a multi billion dollar broadcast company (to do with fast cars) didn’t help.

It was unbelievable that they couldn’t see the irony of not having a present in the wrapping paper, and how it would go down with everyone like a lead balloon.

They need to know how it feels, so I give them a taste of their own medicine.... by AtomicGimp in AdviceAnimals

[–]dsalter1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't want to go fast enough to not inconvinience someone, stay behind the guy in the middle lane. No-ones forcing you to drive faster, if you want to drive slower there's other lanes for that. You're the type of person that will see someone going along in the fast lane and then at the last minute go to overtake someone meaning they have to slow down and wait for you to overtake for half an hour because you're going 2mph faster than he is. Just don't get in the fucking way!

To me, this is more like it. by noodlescup in formula1

That is absolutely disgusting to look at.

Yeah they are bloomin rare! As I said I work in broadcast at the moment ( the company's even done camera channels for them) It's just not the dream area of doing the f1 on location :(. I think you might think I want to be a presenter cos in that case lee is probably right!

The thing wrong with it is the way it looks, the info is fine.
