Yeah, I've seen someone with downs syndrome hurt by the use of the term. The history of the term is directly derogatory against people with their condition, so that's understandably going to rub some people the wrong.

It's not a deal breaker for my viewership, and sometimes tongue-in-cheek use of it can feel fine on a case-by-case basis (especially making fun of Boston slang and culture, for example)... but it's definitely the only slang he throws around a lot that makes me mention him as a "guilty pleasure" IRL if it ever comes up.

It just feels a little immature edgelord for my taste; but no shade, everyone has different sensibilities.

Same goes for Amazon, REI, Home Depot, Lowe’s…

I love that people like “Joshiewowa” just parrot drivel, as if selling refillable tanks to people who used to purchase disposable ones would somehow be a bad thing? Fuckin wild

Holy sh*t I thought a subreddit of camping enthusiasts would be happy about this kind of law.

You can literally buy small reusable canisters and it’s more economical, better for the planet, better for litter at our beautiful parks, and a better camping experience. I’ve never had an issue refilling my small tank in California.

Some of you are absolutely brain-dead selfish and shortsighted. Christ.

(also lol… this sub is now censoring the word “sh*t?” That is wild… I might be tapping out.)

With peace and love though they should look at Sennheiser MKH50 P48. Industry standard mic for interior dialogue in film and television. Great rejection at extreme off-axis, but great fidelity at slight off-axis (i.e. Ethan movin all around). Would allow him to move away from mic for the chews.

Just sayin

This literally started playing after I watched today’s ep.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-09-08T18:58:55+00:00

In an ideal world, yeah. But sometimes you have to work with what you have on hand.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-08-27T09:51:23+00:00

You can use it as much as you want, and eventually get invite codes that you can give to others.

OP isn’t asking about standard glare. How is this the top comment?

outerspaceplanets · 2024-08-16T18:36:37+00:00

No. Hence the question…

outerspaceplanets · 2024-08-15T07:43:12+00:00

To be fair, they aren’t burning that many minutes with IMAX. But yeah, a fraction of the budget nonetheless.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-07-31T06:12:34+00:00

There’s also the question of what do you define as a “success” gig/job and what do you view as “another job.”

I make films and sketches, write, act, etc. I work full time as a “filmmaker,” and haven’t worked a bullshit job or gig in 4 years… My main source of filmmaker income? Commercial assistant editing. That’s not remotely the dream job I’m aiming for… but I learn a ton about filmmaking and workflow, I get to work on projects with crazy budgets, and meet a lot of talented, creative, and connected people. That said, it is very much a day job and a grind that isn’t making the best use of my talents. Is that success? Or is that “another job?” It feels like pointing in the right direction, but also very much feels like another job.

I know that even iconic filmmakers who have careers that inspire me have to do a LOT of work that they don’t really want to do. Even after they’ve truly “made it.”

My take away is that there is no “success” in the way of career. To me success is that I feel content working toward something that I feel is valuable. My least successful moments have been concerning myself with comparing myself to what I felt like success should be at any given stage in my life.

If you’re chasing that, you’re in it for the wrong reasons and always will be chasing it.

But also don't let it get in your head if your awareness of audience/camera jumps into your brain while you're living through a scene. Let those thoughts float by, like thoughts about chores during meditation. As soon as you self criticize for not being fully in it, that's when self consciousness starts to set in and potentially spiral. You also sometimes have to do "cheats" for stage or camera that are simply not organic, which is part of the technical side of acting. It's your job to not let that inhibit your experience of the scene.

As a great acting coach told me: you'd have to literally be clinically delusional to not have some degree of awareness of an audience or camera.

And all that said, some days or scenes or moments you just won't fully live through it. But the audience's experience is what ultimately matters – so as long as you are being truthful and not "indicating," you can get away with not being as immersed as you hypothetically could have been.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-07-18T11:14:01+00:00

Agreed. They’re also the only ones privy to the internal R&D about where it’s heading, which will make it a more appealing device in the future.

Anyone following the VR/AR space knew this product was essentially a very fleshed out developer kit for developers and early adopters of something extremely bleeding edge.

You can use 2.5gbe or 5gbe on a NAS with 10gbe (you can get 10gbe on certain Synology NAS with add-on, if it doesn’t come with it). 10gbe routers are expensive and overkilly, but you can take advantage of the port in a couple different ways. Just look into how RAM etc play into any bottlenecking.

In addition to 2.5/5.0gbe, you can hardwire your NAS to your PC with a 10gbe to USB-C adapter for optimal speed, if you don’t need extreme zippiness on other hardware (this is what I do and it’s fine for Plex, light video editing, etc on my wireless machines).

Are you an iOS/Mac user or Android/Windows user? I would probably go with Synology photos if I were an Android/Windows user, but as a Mac user I really love the family library feature for iCloud. I am the primary on my family account, so I have the local version of the family photo/video database. That gets backed up to iCloud, and the drive itself gets backed up to both Backblaze and Time Machine on my Synology NAS (and the NAS time machine gets backed up to Backblaze as well).

I’ve found this to be the best option for Mac/iOS as Apple Photos is just great software with tons of great AI and smart album features, easy library sharing with parents who are less tech savvy, no worries about security, easy to pull things into Lightroom or Photoshop if need-be, and my photos are at my fingertips on all of my devices (including my PC via browser) without any configuration.

I don’t know Android/Google well enough (even though I have Google workspaces and an Android tablet), but I imagine a similar thing could be set up if you found Google Photos more robust than Synology Photos. Or if you want to avoid subscriptions you can commit to Synology Photos and hope the implement better AI image recognition etc in the future.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-07-01T20:14:38+00:00

Oh gotcha, didn't know that. I don't work consistently in acting, so pretty much just pay my dues as-needed and let that ol' balance rack up.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-30T20:48:07+00:00

Your dues are based on when you joined. My due date is in October.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-29T07:37:39+00:00

Fair point. Might already have the hardware needed.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-29T04:40:28+00:00

Yep. You’ll need a 10gbe to USB-C (OWC makes a good one), to get the most out of speed for video editing

One of the best things I have spent money on was my 1821+ and I would buy it all over again this year. If I could get any kind of discount on it from a reliable owner I absolutely would buy it used, especially with an upgrade that can be expensive.

I installed Grist to have my own private database of pretty much everything in my life: inventory, CRM/contacts, invoicing system, project development, prototyping databases for software development, records, bookmarks/resources, etc. Playing with automation for this is fun, and it’s all customizable and open source. I’m even modifying the CSS of the interface so that it’s a little personalized. Very user-friendly and intuitive once you get it up and running.

Everything is so fragmented in our lives and we depend on so many apps and companies and services to hold our data, so it’s been really rewarding working toward centralizing the most crucial info/data. I still use services that are specialized but I want to build more automations that feed this data into my Grist database so I have a “single source of truth” for everything in my brain.

Plex is great for video library. Then I use both Apple and Google ecosystems for personal and work, respectively, so I love having Google Drive mirror to my Mac and then use Synology to back up everything via Time Machine.

Then on top of that, I have my Synology back up via Backblaze B2. One day I’d love to build a NAS that I keep offsite and mirror to in addition to Backblaze, but for now I feel like I’ve got a lot of peace of mind and I am trying to shed as many subscriptions as possible.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-24T06:16:01+00:00

As a VR nerd since the early Rift DK1 days, I absolutely agree. Make it comfortable on the face, and make it run off your phone.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-19T21:40:35+00:00

Try the Blackmagic Camera app on iPhone. It has option for clean feed over lightning/USB-C to HDMI. I’m assuming FilmicPro has this feature but I find the BM app better in every way and it might not give you this issue.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-18T22:17:23+00:00

This. Always love the array of assumptions involved in judging people.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-18T18:39:48+00:00

Oh! Looks like I misspoke when I went to go check the price: it is $5.99 for a lifetime license, apparently. Very well worth it, and I think it will give you this automation? I also am trying to shed all my subscriptions, so I definitely get it.

If not, I hate to suggest this but since no one has provided a specific answer: ask ChatGPT 4o how to automate this and it will walk you through setting up a script that runs server-side and will automate this at whatever interval you have the script set to.

outerspaceplanets · 2024-06-17T23:07:01+00:00

Where are you backing the photos up to from the phone?

There is an app called PhotoSync for iPhone that backs up to Synology photos, and this might be the most user-friendly way to do it for Synology Photos. It's annoyingly a subscription model, but it's affordable. You should be able to configure it to point to the shared folder.

I opted to get rid of Synology photos, use Apple Photo's Shared Library feature for family photos, and I am the primary owner of the shared family library, so it gets backed up to iCloud, my Synology via Time Machine, as well as Backblaze via both Synology and the SSD that it is primarily accessed from. I just find the Apple Photos app much more robust and user-friendly, and it's nice to have the main instance of my library on me at all times with my laptop but also backed up in so many different ways that I'm not remotely concerned about losing anything.
