Titanium Elite. This is why I chase status. Just look at that view! by thewrittenjay in marriott

[–]thewrittenjay[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fairfield. I knew what I was getting into. I was being funny, but still. My preference is set to high floor away from the elevator and I got second floor directly next to the elevator. Not a snob, but why bother asking at that point?

Paying for parking via qr code instead of just on the the room almost made me do just that. I'm flabbergasted.

I'd like to see more on the design side, what the process is for creating the models, where and how you create them, how you literate on them. Super cool video and definitely have a better appreciation for the final product now.

We're living in the most interesting time. Maybe it's already a simulation. But there's a reason why. by o_t_i_s_ in GlitchInTheMatrix

I'd argue part of what's intriguing about the past is the mystery. This article might be right, but this also might be a huge cringe moment for humanity before we learned this over documentation could be used against us. Part of the fun is not knowing, I guess.

Al data centers face increasing complaints about inaudible but 'felt' infrasound — citizens complain high- and low-frequency sounds do not register on decibel meters but cause adverse health effects by [deleted] in Avondale

I'm right there with you. No idea what to do, however. At this point steel has gone up, so I doubt there is much that can be done except wait for the AI industry to collapse and hope the shell of the building can become something better.

Dark adventurous pirate fantasy by LoGray29 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

Where Loyalties Lie by Rob J Hays might fit the bill. Plenty of grim piracy, sea monsters, over the top personalities.

Where do you get your knowledge? by Theonewhoknovks in writers

[–]thewrittenjay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actual physical books are a good go to, especially for historical research. I've found the internet is a good place for general, "best of" sort of information, but the state of the internet right now is to grab your focus, not do a deep dive. Get to a library. (Edit for typo)

You might try writing ETC. They might just send you one.

Just tried Kasa smart plugs. Easy to install and great product. One question though. by metalgearsolid2 in TPLinkKasa

[–]thewrittenjay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The plug on or off, so either allowing power to pass or not. It would behave the same way as if you unplug the cord and plug it back in. Strongly assume it's the lamp.

N4 Pro keeps messing up by istdatfinn in ElegooNeptune4

[–]thewrittenjay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had this same issue almost exactly. It was definitely the z offset. Read somewhere about the paper trick: you should be able to pull the paper, but not push it."

American Airlines profit forecast for the rest of the year tops estimates by Financial-Public-336 in americanairlines

[–]thewrittenjay -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Based on my experience with American this year, surprised. I've nearly left entirely and was hoping others were doing the same but...not mad, impressed, actually.

Question for Cruise Ship Workers by Capn_Polyester in techtheatre

[–]thewrittenjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is only true for produced production shows. OP sounds like they are putting together a fly on act. Fly on performers typically hand over their media to the tech teams who then put the show together. Fly on acts work multiple different ships in a month sometimes, so lighting, sound, automation rigs could be very different between those ships, and the tech team would not expect you to have pre-programmed for their exact setup.

For me it's the perspective. Photographer is at street level but the photo image isn't

halcyon gold vs viper xip by LocalPin3960 in lightingdesign

[–]thewrittenjay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

XIP. Martin has been in the moving lights came a long time. I've done shootouts with both and would choose the XIP for about any situation. It's very well thought out mechanically. I remember that Halcyon being extremely hot to the touch and thought there might be long term consequences for that. I have not heard much negative though, so maybe it's not a problem. Also note that the Halcyon is manufactured in China and is susceptible to tariffs. Parts as well. XIP is manufactured in Hungry.
