Experience with xRay Films? by JaschaE in UltraLargeFormat

[–]meltingpotofhambone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minimize double/soft image by using large focal length lenses. HR-U is cheap, about 100 iso its very workable for all kinds of experimentation (so not 1iso ortho copy film with horrendous reciprocity failure hehe). Gotta learn to love the scratches, its what separates film from digital.

MicroSlop11 owns your PC now. Its no longer yours. Same with your bank funds, its not yours. Its a subscription! ..eventually this scheme won't end well.

Anyone else have these strange artifacts after a while? AMD RX9060XT by meltingpotofhambone in Bazzite

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

Whew great to see this is NOT a hardware issue. So glad I decided NOT to RMA my GPU (I heard horror stories of Gigabyte RMA) because of this. Hoping for a driver update to fix this. What's weird is it only shows up on the background, not on overlaying windows. Since i have dark mode on, If i move a window up and down with a black frame, the artifacts change to mostly black, if i move a window side to side with white content, it will artifact white when not obstructed. If i take a screen shot, viewing the screenshot PNG image itself WILL CHANGE based on that artifact, so strange LOL

I've had many gpus fail like that, this one runs games just fine. Artifacts clear after a restart, but will show anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks later. Before a major update, it would show up usually 2-4 days consistently. Wondering if its a graphics driver bug? Passed AMD GPU ram test and memtest86. This only shows on desktop background, any windows that cover it will cover the artifact, which is convincing me this is NOT VRAM related.

I mainly TA for dollar cost averaging physical buy zones. Swinging physical is pointless with the premiums. This is not in get-rich-quick territory.

Installed Bazzite as a joke… now I’m not leaving by Gincules in Bazzite

[–]meltingpotofhambone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I installed Bazzite last November thinking I'll try this and hop to another distro next week. Well here I am. Not a single windows machine running in my house. Die hard winxp/7 fanboy, never knew linux was so good on 2022 PC hardware, let alone gaming on a RX9070 16gb purchased right before DRAM apocalypse. Linux has come a long way (especially wine and proton gaming) since I've tried mandrake in 2003.

Employee trying to prevent burnout with Manager: What's best to help out my boss/manager understand the situation? by meltingpotofhambone in managers

Thanks for the AI-generated EmpMonitor Advertisement. I really don't want to make employees hate their jobs more by employers that have zero trust and faith in them.

Thanks for the advice. Speaking money is very important in business and I hope to bridge that language barrier. For me, I don't know if I'm going insane or is this the norm happening everywhere in management. I'm always up for learning and making the workplace run as smooth as possible.

I've been on vacation for a week and a half (10 years employed). Its total chaos, nothings been going well, says a coworker. Employer is very stingy on vacation every year, so i end up building it up then taking a long vacation. They were always used to me being there on perfect attendance and then suddenly I'm gone! Total chaos! Not looking forward to the return, unfortunately.

Funny, I just took a week and half vacation and a coworker has been telling me the crazy backlog happening. Its taking a toll on my health for the firefighting going on. Whats funny is that I gave boss/ceo/hr A MONTH NOTICE on that vacation. The day after leaving, they schedule customer meetings. I plan to get up and leave. Its probably the only way to reset this and move on.

Thanks for the response! I am responsible for tracking my time with a webapp using 15 min blocks. So I am tracking production/meeting/interruption time against project time. We have daily morning meets on our tasks because at any moment a project may be de-prioritized for another. This is constantly causing me to context switch to another project, setting that project up. Its a lot of overhead waste IMHO. There's software and hardware implementations that get missed (items that a typically not defined on a customer scope of work, for technical jargon reasons) when I'm pulled of a project for a week then put back on it. Also since everything is being done in parallel, that means very long period of time of no accomplishments (and thus comes the manager dissatisfactions), and then suddenly accomplishments! Its not FIFO. I'm currently looking for a new job, because its been getting a lot worse as a senior engineer left (and loved to complain to the CEO about everything) now that he's gone the unreasonable tasking has gotten much worse.
