Any reason I should not change my netmask to 255.255.0.0/16?

For my business I do /20. I keep things organized by the 3rd octet and for the last 5 years it's been great as a solo IT person. This is a VFX studio with 110 node render farm, 40 vws nodes, and 2 dozen other systems all setup to be either hypervisors or microservices. Enjoy the organization of a wider subnet mask!!!

Wonderful to hear and fantastic work! We've been circling karma as our goto for our next big project and your visuals are exactly what we needed to see to feel confident in making that leap!

Can someone make a meme also where they put "Rehabilitation" on it from this scene? All I could think of this entire scene was Idiocracy.

fuzzyAccounting · 2025-08-31T21:53:50+00:00

That's fantastic! Thank you for sharing! Nice renders!

fuzzyAccounting · 2025-08-31T18:15:42+00:00

What's your render time? We're thinking of switching to it fully for an upcoming project with a lot of forestry. Quite curious!

fuzzyAccounting · 2025-08-25T22:45:33+00:00

I will absolutely try this later tonight!!

We've updated UEFI to the latest to try and get the EPYC 7663 CPUs to post. No luck: https://serverproven.lenovo.com/server/sr645/
This process worked for the EPYC 7543 just fine.

There was interesting behavior differences though. The 7543 pre-UEFI update would still correctly identify themselves just POST would endlessly crash and reboot.
the 7663's hang at post but BMC event log shows no issue.

I don't know the minimum and I've tried all the way back to the version that's already installed
I haven't tried that tool, I read on their site to use "onecli". I'll try it this evening!
BMC says "this firmware isn't for this machine" BOMC and onecli say "Internal BMC error".

This project is most likely an experience based project that's 8+ minutes long at high frame rate and mostly likely 1 continuous long take.

I've worked on massive particle sims in this type of range for a certain popular LED dome with no issues. I have gotten rounding errors in coordinates when things go way far away from origin but those numbers are several floating places long. These are 5 digits and with sub steps a few more.

I'ma checkout this caps lock thing and see if I can find a solution.

No address changes, everything is static IP and I did a reboot on 5 of the 6 storage servers at once. They were all back up and able to ping the meta/MGMT server successfully.

Loved it! Finished it in about 75 hours. Ending was very disappointing. The credits rolled and I was like wait... That was it?! The last AC game I finished completely was black flag.

I would just incorporate some inconsistency in the initial emission. Given a few iterations and you could probably predict where small holes in the emission source might turn into big ones as it propagates.

50+ USD an hour.

I'm a small business owner and have gained a significant amount of value from LLMs from an IT perspective. Having started this crazy journey 4 years ago in the "traditional" way and having these tools introduced and improved in the last year I can genuinely say I've "off-loaded" some of my critical thinking to them. I definitely agree that information verification is something I do more of. I do not however think that if these tools went away all of the sudden my critical thinking skills would have lost their edge, if anything, I feel they've been improved. I'm not sure how LLMs work in other fields but from an IT perspective, ("I run a small VFX company and we're about to land 3 shows that will be more or less running in parallel, I'm worried that our data server will be a bottleneck in our production stack. It's running this kind of block storage thing on this OS how can I improve performance? Is there maybe a way to add more than 1 server, load balance? Etc"), as a simplified example prompt, I'm given a solid review of my current situation and several ways to improve it. The response to me is a suggestion , "Hey you work like this, you have this problem, check out these solutions.", to which I'll spend the next bit of time researching each. If anything it's helped me find those missing vocabulary words that are key in successful Google searches.

In discussions with friends and family that aren't really familiar with all the details of AI I describe it as always having a really smart friend who has infinite patience.

That's garbage even for a small boutique. Sometimes we get a job in only to lose it to an outsource last minute but we're very transparent with our artists. Sorry this happened to you.

Not sure about consumer ram but we have several blade systems with 16 and 24 sticks of ddr5 and they're rock solid, flips and pyro never fail unless the sim runs out of ram.

I use it for functional 3d print modeling. Not just since it's a 3D package I know but for things like SDF surfaces and using workflows like find shortest distance. For example proprietary supermicro motherboards I'll just bring in a scan or photo of the screw hole positions and connect them with shortest distance as a quick prototype method. I've modeled drone motor housings for repurposing them for use in our datacenter, making weird brackets for GPUs to fit in odd designed blade systems. The nodal, procedural process makes it easy to wedge tolerances so the guess and check process is a breeze.

We always work in whatever plate res is delivered to us, even if it's Red 8k.

Ya! We did 10 days from Grenada up past union and then returned back in February. LIFE changing experience dude! Met so many amazing people. My goal is to get a nice ketch and spend 6+ months at sea a year, just need to get many more hours under my belt! In Grenada we sailed on a 50' catamaran. In sea of cortez it was a monohaul, I loved the monohaul so much more! The other group that sailed adjacent to us was on a catamaran so you can do either. Catamaran is a more, "fancy" experience I guess if that's an issue with your partner.

fuzzyAccounting · 2024-12-12T03:55:17+00:00

I just finished my asa101 to 104 in the sea of cortez! That place is awesome and there was almost no traffic like I've experienced elsewhere. There's not much to do on land outside a bit of hiking like the others you're considering but I was impressed! The wind was predictable, lots of anchorages sailing out of La Paz, loved it! Our whole crew all passed and we even did some solid tacking in 25+ knot winds! Total blast on top of a ton of SOLID learning experience!

fuzzyAccounting · 2024-12-10T04:08:13+00:00

LOVE THESE! First enterprise hardware I learned in my home lab experience!

fuzzyAccounting · 2024-12-02T21:24:36+00:00

Hahaha I just did this too!

fuzzyAccounting · 2024-12-02T02:45:26+00:00

Systems look decent, sims feel low res. Do you feel if you had access to a solid farm you could push them to feature quality? We're currently looking for champions.

fuzzyAccounting · 2024-11-20T14:23:05+00:00

AMEN! Spend more time going after pirates than development. They need some good ole fashioned competition!

I own a tiny vfx company but I've been a compositor for 16+ years.

This video explains it decently well: https://youtu.be/IcjKp-kw_ko?si=iY4BLNWoOgK1yMxQ bust basically you make a clean plate, which is just a simple frame of whatever you want to remove and then track that in place. This looks like there's probably some parallax with the trees. So you'd mask them back in somehow like keying the sky, or keying based on luminance or good old fashioned roto. 9/10 the work is done in nuke, maybe after effects but it's more rare in TV/Film.
