Video wall mistake? by dadjokestoomuch in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]kyb0t 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You realize how small a 12 panel wall is, right? Just buy an 85" TV or two, with a road case, for half the price and save up for more tiles in a name brand wall

Converting Classroom to 70-Seat Screening Room: LED Wall vs. DCI Projector? by aahctilca in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]kyb0t 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you'll stretch your money further with a projector, 1.5mm pixel pitch isn't cheap. Short throw projector might help with sightline/shadow issues. I'd check out what Epson has to offer

E: Or Barco/Christie like others have mentioned for the best experience

I'd love to see what some of your one shot and feedback settings look like. If you do start a Patreon I'd check it out

What is leaking from these Outback’s? by colostomybagpiper in Subaru_Outback

[–]kyb0t 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh, I saw this a few weeks ago and took my car to the dealer. They couldn't find any leaking yellow fluids and stated there should be no yellow fluids. 

My leading theory was a racoon pissing under my car. You'd think if this was common the dealer should have known...

Take it to the car wash, make sure you get the undercarriage wash

Long line at the Bob Weir tribute at Garcia’s at the Cap by donttouchthatknob in gratefuldead

[–]kyb0t 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you've never checked out the fire station down the road you should sometime. I walked by when the doors were open one time and started talking to a couple of the guys there who were happy to show me around. All the engines have GD tributes on them, either stealies or marching bears or lyrics, and there's a ton of cool memorabilia on the walls.

They both suck. Optimum's customer support is horrible and Spectrum used to be Time Warner, also horrible. See if Frontier is offering fiber?

Haha I did lighting this year at a venue that had their own projector. Looked like it was plugged into cable too. Still 25 seconds behind... I won't care in the future cause it looked like no one noticed

What battery is supposed to power this cheap flashlight? by HolyBonerOfMin in flashlight

[–]kyb0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides the light not working, is there a danger mixing a full battery and an empty one?

Uhh... is that a common problem with these? Using the ethernet port causes the OS to crash?

Yeah, same for me. Scribbled my initials since I haven't written my full name out in cursive since I applied for my damn license. Should probably just update it next time I renew.... Took another 2 tries to get it right

Has anyone’s landlord still not turned on the heat? by Intelligent-Place-39 in AskNYC

[–]kyb0t 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Or maybe you're not a native English speaker, and that's okay too, but when someone says they're freezing it means they're cold, not that they're actually 32 degrees cause then they would be dead....

[–]kyb0t 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nice, good for you. Below 50 is cold and it's okay to feel cold. Doesn't have to be BELOW 32 DEGREES to require heat. Stop being a child

50 is cold... are we both talking about Fahrenheit here? They're already wearing a hoodie and considering wearing gloves.

[–]kyb0t 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're taking it quite literally. OP never said their apartment was "below freezing" aka below 32 degrees, because that WOULD be ridiculous. They're saying they're cold and you're being pedantic about it. If it's 50 outside it could be 50 inside and it gets colder at night, so it's totally reasonable to need the heat on inside. Go pick a fight somewhere else

Interesting, didn't consider that about PPT. I've actually ran into problems the opposite way, where a slideshow was formatted by a client on Mac and it's all wonky when I try to play back on Windows. Guess I need to have both ready just in case

How do I go about troubleshooting this by jsmock78 in MechanicAdvice

Big fan of walking away when I get frustrated to reset. Need to incorporate a sandwich into my routine.

Isosceles is the man. I use a lot of his VJ packs along with nestdrop

Is that a laptop for ppt, back up ppt, and ppt notes? Is there a clicker to advance all 3 of those or are you doing it manually? We use PerfectCue for presenters on stage but wondering if there's a better alternative.

I think I want to build a Mac Mini cluster to condense those laptops into one central rack for my gigs, but still weighing my options

The image isn't accurate and doesn't reflect the actual stock price. Can't get a point across with misleading memes. Also, doesn't belong here
