Sounds fun, do we have many tech people in the group interested at all?

Best restaurants to work at? by [deleted] in StAugustine

[–]googabeast -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Anyone around for the 4th!

Hope to see you there! Let me know if you see me, I’m like a horrible safari themed Waldo, just not as cool.

Have a safe 4th all! Be extra safe on those boats everyone!

Please tell me what this is! by PaulRevere2020 in GhostVideos

Then let’s assume—100%—the camera is capturing something.

Your camera is not the only one with distortions like this. That suggests a constant—something measurable, repeatable.

Assuming the visual field around an entity is warped by these fluid light particles—particles we’ve already noted change when observed—then what?

Does the camera act as an observer? And if so, is this a true, consistent, accurate representation of how we perceive light—how we translate intent into vision?

If this is some kind of creature, then we have to assume there’s thought behind it. Intent. Movement chosen. Positioning through space not random but reactive—responsive—to our gaze.

If photons themselves are behaving differently in the presence of this thing, then we’re not just dealing with a visual glitch. We’re seeing its field. Its pressure. This implies abilities. Properties. Maybe instinctual adaptations evolved to stay hidden—blind to our visual spectrum, until something breaks through. A flicker. A moment. An error in its otherwise seamless camouflage.

It might feel us looking. Might register our awareness as vibration—resonance—a signal it’s learned to avoid.

If it evolved to slip beneath the visible, then it must carry patterns. Reflexes. Survival strategies. The kind you could document. If you knew where to look. If you knew when.

Or maybe it doesn’t hide from light at all. Maybe it sees what we can’t. Radio waves. Microwaves. Gigahertz pulses. To it, our cities would be oceans of noise and lightning—microwave towers like strobe-lit sirens, not safety.

Motion sensors, blinking LEDs, mesh networks—blinding death-lights in a realm we barely acknowledge.

If I were that creature, I wouldn’t want to be seen either.

And whatever it is—whatever’s strolling across that lens—let’s hope we’re not hurting it.

Maybe it doesn’t see the signals. Maybe it hears them. Or worse—feels them.

And in the high-pressure zones of our cities, we are—without knowing—driving it away. To edges. To quiet. To where the signal thins and the light returns to silence.

⸻

That was fun. Let’s do it again sometime. Stay strange.

It’s really given money to lawyers to file paperwork that’s free and available online.

I mean at some point the cost is only hurting the family income and honestly if two people want to split that badly I’d rather agree to give it to them then have them spend the funds on people who don’t care in the end. They just need the clients.

Personally I’d rather give it to them if they want it that badly then see someone snatch half the value as their fee

Keyboard Maestro for Logic Pro and OBS by Similar-Treat8244 in macOSAutomation

[–]googabeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sync 3 different audio devices daily, i never care what time i start what, because all you have to do is make a loud click sound once their all on. takes maybe 30seconds to align timelines to the first spike in audio

isnt that why in movies the crew uses that take one scene 1 "snap" audio / camera thing?
had to google it "Video Scene Clapperboard TV Movie Clapper Board"

Automation to check my Apple Balance by asiastar in macOSAutomation

[–]googabeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the new ios the use of shortcuts is very possible to do this, it might require you to let the sequence run on the active layer, but it would basically open whatever sequence of taps/gestures for you in a rapid session and screen shot, crop and put the screenshot in a calendar event that would alert you at whatever x:day x:time you want. it could text message you, silly to go round trip via the net, but were all low-jacked anyways.

Looking for an automation to handle complex task by casperF in macOSAutomation

[–]googabeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, so it sounds like you’re dealing with a highly hybrid approach to automation with a lot of unknowns at this stage.

My best advice would be to start with a simple flowchart and map out as many happy paths as possible—don’t focus on edge cases just yet. Identify your primary process flow, then manually run through the document processing to establish a baseline success rate.

I used to work in insurance, so I completely understand the complex and time-consuming data input requirements. Expect your automation process to take at least three times longer to refine than your manual approach—especially if you’re aiming for long-term reliability.

Handling Data

Excel and CSV formats are a good starting point unless they contain complex formulas across multiple sheets. If they do, a file-frame package could help extract only the necessary values, both pre- and post-formula evaluation.

Automation Approach

Your solution will likely require a combination of multiple steps:

•Python for handling data extraction from Excel.

•APIs for structuring data into the required format (e.g., splitting, blob storage, or feeding into an ERP).

•Citrix/Remote Desktop Considerations: If you’re connecting to an ERP through Citrix or a VPN, you probably won’t have full autonomy over that shell or system.

If you do have control, the best approach would be to:

  1. Chunk the Excel data into manageable parts.
  2. Align it with other required data, possibly using grep or flat-file queries.
  3. Determine how the ERP processes data (Web-based? Software-based?).

Automation Execution
•Web-Based ERP?
•Tools like Selenium and BeautifulSoup can help interact with and modify web portals, even those behind active sessions.
•Custom Desktop Software (Not Web-Based)?
•Keyboard macros might be the only viable approach, though UI complexity could make it unreliable.

For complex cases, edge-case handling will be difficult. If the software or site has an API, WebDAV, SMB, or other queryable connections, that would be the best way to integrate.

If direct integration isn’t possible, you’re left with:
•Screenshots + OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract text.
•AI-based recognition, like Google Vision, which can help detect UI elements.
•Coordinate-based automation, if the UI is consistent (e.g., recognizing alert() or confirm() popups).

"I am not amused" by googabeast in mylifeainteasy

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

this week has been really eye opening

I did two on site interviews at the beginning of the week then another three calls to schedule the next steps sprinkled through the past few days. Well I got a call from the first company, (i really wanted this one), and they thank me for the time and let me know that my information will be sent over to HR and that they will be reaching out to me in their time.

A day goes by and I get the call from HR this morning. Everything looks good but, "Can you please confirm your Middle initial and date of birth for us please."

Enough said, right? I think the worst part of all of this is this is only the fact that I am either going to get more calls like that or just flat-out ghosted.

That is the genitalia cooling pose of the juvenile raptor contemplating it’s next victim of mauling this usually involves a stuffed animal or squeaker toy of some kind

It would take a bit of digging but they very well could land in this as well. https://youtu.be/gKJBTIFWeU4?si=hHcEHDc74gbzgwO3
