I learned of this program now that I have been flirting with cydia on my cell phone for a while; It is also available for computers (windows mac linux) The OSX version seems to work well with 10.6 at least. I like the effect but I wonder what the hardcore photo-guys and film color correction operators think about it ? Maybe future devices will come equipped with advanced ambient light sensors that will adjust the colour temperature automatically ?

They have also posted a fair amount of evidence for health benefits. http://stereopsis.com/flux/research.html

Would it then be possible for a quad IP25 with 4MB SCs ? Or is it not supported in the microcode eproms/glue logic/etc ?

what is this, facebook for nerds ?

It could be something as simple as there is nothing in between the mains receptacle and the ac on the backplane but a circuit breaker. Then if you used two supplies each with receptacles you would have live pins on the second suppy begging to short on something.

Typical dutch.. You know... Elongated... It is a verrrry fast bike I like it more than the current trend of a tall cyclist with a tiny bike and 2' seatpost.

Think it's getting to be that time of year again, riding to work... Too nice outside to be stuck in a metal box!

Had a lovely romp in the woods this morning, I ran 14 miles yesterday so I was too sore to stay all day

edit: downsized images since they were originally uploaded from my phone.

Interesting tidbit:

Thought some people might get a kick of this little project. We had the point cloud man in today and I filmed him working for a bit. The files are imported into solidworks.

This is their second time out for a detail scan of holes, bolts, etc. A few weeks ago they were out with an automated machine for rough dimensions.

I will be forever dissapointed that nikeplus killed all the minis.

<<<< including mine

No, but that would be really cool for a future generation. For now, the software calculates sunrise/sunset from your location and time of day. It would be nice to have a manual override (or maybe plugged into the philly hue kit )


Indeed.


Technically speaking, the software works quite well. The only program it causes flickering with for me (and I play a fair amount of different games) is Halo.

Hey now, I thought this was "home" office only

my space is never this clean, normally...
and if we look to the right...

I made a whitehouse.gov account just to sign this

not sure if it was a very good idea (to make the account) or not...

It's like one of those xbox avatars for runner-types. You can buy a wristwatch device called a sportband (about $50, it is also a nice watch in it's own right) which includes a sensor that is strapped to your shoelace, it then records how you run.

The system used to feature a character that you could customize to your likeness, which would then masquerade as a screensaver on your computer. The whole site was redesigned in fall of 2012 with a much less colorful/cartoon look, it's rather drab now.




Back on topic... I looked through the avatar gallery and while the artwork is very nice it is not something I would use to represent myself

do you have an ASO ?

I have an "old" (they changed the layout a few years ago) N8VEM, it was a fun project and is still poked at occasionally (introducing friends to cpm etc). Never did get around to building the video terminal kit.

I used to run Gentoo on my Octanes, it would have been abut the 2.6.5 (linux kernel version) era.. one of the guys in our LUG even had X working with most of KDE. Mips-Linux is interesting but you will have more fun with Irix.

I would skip the G5 and go for a mac pro. An early mac pro is about the same price and vastly faster (and more useful) than a high-end G5 (some people here will throw things at me for saying that). Also, avoid the G5's with Delphi radiators as they tend to leak, look for one fitted with a panasonic cooler or air-cooled model.

It may not be SysV but I consider OSX to be fairly standard unix. I like macports which is familiar if you use other BSDs. And there are some here who say it's not a workstation for real men with lots of chest hair unless it requires 3 phase, 480/600v power and at least 3 technicians to install it. (my workstation is a mac air so YMMV...)

Almost, but not always... viewtopic.php?f=3&t=16724371&p=7334288

Do frontporch/backporch pixels and overscan lines need to be considered with DVI? That would round up the bandwidth a fair bit...

Film at 24 but the traditional cinema projector has a 3-sprocket shutter of sorts that flashes the same frame 3 times. So 72 Hz, which is a bit of a misconception on lower refresh == "film-like" looks.

And is also the one which has changed the least over the past decade... but has been relegated to 2nd fiddle by iOS.

Cleaning the compression connectors is a good idea, I would start by pulling off the frontplane and wiping the contacts clean with isopropyl alcohol. Blow off the other side of the connection with compressed air.

Have you tried reseating the CPU?

back when I was using linux, I ran xmonad and really liked it... tiling managers seem to be an ideal compromise between windowing managers and the modern iphone/tablet paradigm.

I like it, might even get one. I use connect360, works much better than wmc. But:

I am in indy occasionally and might be able to swing by to see it sometime in the next few weeks...

If you need a power cord I find this place is pretty helpful http://www.stayonline.com/

I have one with a geforce 320m and one with a radeon 5770 but I'm not sure if the usefulness of this benchmark is worth getting it to run on snow leopard...

I tried with both the Apple X11 and the latest xquartz and I kept getting something like "illegal command" when I ran it. Not sure if it was actually using the latest xquartz or not, will try again tomorrow.

Still not sure the value of running a benchmark designed to show off one 18 year old system on a 3 year old laptop is a super valuable use of time

Thanks, stoo - your version compiled/works fine on my MP, will try it on the air (1.4 c2d, geforce 320m) when I get to the lab.



seeing the paths in the compile string was quite useful


edit: added test with GeForce320M.

Using XQuartz 2.7.4:


Using Apple XQuartz 2.3.6:


Maybe I'll try XQuartz 2.7.4 on the Radeon... see, big waste of time

Your GL_Renderer string is generic, is it using your geforce ?

Mine do, see above...

Something is not right, looking at the scores... it should be at least 10 million because that's what IR can do even a lowly geforce 320m squeaked by with almost 40m...

I used to think autocad was a pain in the ass, until I switched to Dassault DraftSite. Now I KNOW autocad is a pain in the ass

It isn't the drawer that decides which SCSI bus the disk is on, if you look at a drive sled you will notice a pair of connectors and a pair of jumper pins. You can mix and match SE and HVD in the same machine just by setting up the disk sleds. I have all of my devices set up for SE on the same bus, because it's the easy thing to do.

The default setup (at least for desksides) is SE on A and Diff on B. http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/tpl/cgi ... /ch04.html

Aperture.app, version 3.2.4 that I use, clocks in at 913.4 MB in /Applications. Even itunes is almost 300MB...

with a calibrated screen they might be the same ?

FWIW it was (re)drawn on an using GIMP

Not if the artist knows what she is doing, just feels like a minor sunburn for a week or two.
