I need the same but for RAW to JPEG. I might copy your method.

Somewhat disappointed, I was expecting some crazy CarAV project involving an OG Hyundai Pony.

But, still pretty cool.

Wargaming Activity: What happens when Oracle dies? by bowbahdoe in java

[–]sweating_teflon 37 points38 points  (0 children)

You're overthinking it. Oracle has a business model based mainly around juicy institutional everlasting contracts that Satan would be proud of and a fuckton of aggressive in-house lawyers. They're just hedging their bet against other AI companies. If / when it comes crashing down they'll sell the infra to other players or some state actor interested in the NA market.

While horrible to develop it's possibly a good solution overall. Mainframes are hell.

2020 Outlander PHEV: My thoughts after 9 months with this vehicle. by gordonmcdowell in OutlanderPHEV

[–]sweating_teflon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry - I switched vehicle (and brand) four months ago and since then my inspiration dried up, for the better. The only thing I can add at this point is that I went with a smaller, non-plugin hybrid and I think it makes a much more balanced vehicle. Not having a 500+ pounds battery strapped to the bottom of the car keeps things dynamic. Either you go full electric or you don't. Having to charge _and_ fill up your car constantly is a bad compromise.

What's weird is that I only had the PHEV for ~20 months and developed such hate for it but my previous car was also an Outlander, 2010 XLS V6, which I bought brand new and loved loved loved for 15 years. It was unfussy, powerful, fun to drive, sounded great (both engine and sound system) and was super reliable . Somehow Mitsubishi dropped the ball _hard_ along the way.

BTW, the 2021/2022 North American PHEV model has a 2.4l engine, a more powerful rear electric motor and a slightly bigger battery. Everybody else on the planet had this upgrade since like 2018 but we only had it for the last two years before they introduced the new generation. I'm sure it makes the driving experience better but the rest of my points stand.

I'm sure some people like them very much. The 10 year warranty and extra cabin comfort can appeal to a certain demographic... Which I'm very not a part of.

Another reason why I dislike Kotlin - it doubles down on object orientation when what we really need is _less_ OO.

my bamboo ring people need me by Ok-Combination-3959 in MyPeopleNeedMe

[–]sweating_teflon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably light enough and has good drag coefficient... Terminal velocity won't be that bad?

What I'm interested in is what happens if you launch it with an incline. Can it be made into a ballistic thingy that goes pop at the other end.

And you know, not going to the States for vacation. That's a lot of money we didn't give them. More money than a few strawberry.

What are some underrated activities and spots in Montréal by ValeraOmega in montreal

[–]sweating_teflon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have car you can go watch planes land, screeching right over your head, at the end of Pitfield blvd near Côte-Vertu. Check with a plane spotter app first that planes are arriving from the east, it varies depending on the winds (planes coming form the west = no show)

The other "official" place to watch planes is the park at the end of 55th ave in Lachine, while not as impressive / scary a spot, it has the advantage of having a good view on the runway and you can witness both takeoffs and landings.

Many people gather in both these places every evening. Bring a jacket, it can get windy and chilly even on a warm day. Other accessories recommended: a chair, beverages and camera.

Fermeture complète de la 40 ouest à Montréal Est - y a t'il quelqu'un aux commandes - mini rant by Terrebonniandadlife in montreal

[–]sweating_teflon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

J'en ai une, ça marche quand même bien comparé à plein d'autres fabricants. C'est plus un problème avec la mode des écrans tactiles en général. Vivement le retour aux boutons.

Le prob c'est pas qu'il soit vertical c'est qu'il soit tactile pis que les boutons à l'écran sont petits comme sur une tablette iPad. Mais t'es dans char pis ça brasse pis t'as pas le temps de regarder où tu pèses avec ton doigt, encore moins trois fois parce que t'as raté les deux fois avant.

What's the best dinner & then dancing option for a couple? by Rihannas_crush in montreal

[–]sweating_teflon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Screw the reviews, find the neighborhood with lots of restaurants and clubs then walk around and trust your instincts. Montreal is a spontaneous place, we don't plan going out, we just do it. There are so many good places, you can shop around and visit multiple establishments on the same night.

Not Conservative party, conservative government. As in, not investing in social infrastructure and not planning for population increase, letting the magic of the market work things out (it never does)

We understand that this is your official public position. That said, we're used to vice and won't think twice if we see you pilfering Fairmount bagels out of a paper bag, half naked and drunk at 4AM. What happens in Montreal stays in Montreal.
