otherwise screenshots would come through of me ''trolling''

It's important to remember to write just a little bit differently on each of your alts
That's why nobody has realized I'm also ponkkis

I just asked if you were an alt... chill
u said your behaviour

HUUUUH

u said your behaviour
you're acting like them is all.... the way you talk, etc

@zinc matrix yea, found that when going trough the other banned persons history

that was legit

we actually had a running joke on IRC that I was another guy's alt account because nobody had seen me and him IRL at the same time

maybe your screenshot was too small?
deep glen
can we drop it. please
verbal junco
your text is not readable

no it wasnt
and even if it was, maybe state that instead of sending a gif
ill drop it
but accuse me of things i havent done pls and thanks
trail wedge
here I was thinking comedy was the universal language
verbal junco
and even if it was, maybe state that instead of sending a gif
well the gif was trying to add a little bit of comedy into the situation. you didn't follow up when you could have. feel free to try again with a larger screenshot

wasnt funny

something to store your games perhaps if minidisc like scenario want to use https://news.microsoft.com/wp-content/uploads/prod/sites/549/2019/11/ignite-warner-brothers-brad-collar-vicky-colf_1920x1280-1024x683.jpg
zinc matrix
that is a bit unfair... who records on film nowadays?
celest musk
isn't she holding some glass type of storage?
deep copper
they are recording on humans
celest musk
so it's probably a comparsion
they fit 4 rolls on that "disc"
while comparing analog to digital is kinda nonsense
zinc matrix
analog vs. digital storage*
zinc matrix
analog?
celest musk
and well at some point that film material will have some physical bounds which wont allow further upscaling
zinc matrix
yeah... a medium format in film photography can be cheaper than digital
soft night
some shows have even work with crystal like hyperdrive
zinc matrix
but who knows who will use impression with medium formats film nowadays
maybe some fancy exposition of African tribes on 127mm
FAN-CY
celest musk
also that glass material is probably supposed to last longer
let me guess....
years
zinc matrix
what was the purpose of this glass storage?
knotty skiff
deep copper
just an upgrade as always i guess
zinc matrix
i wonder if we could survive for 1 billion years and who will take a look at old archieves
soft night
plan is to store 10000 of years that is microsoft data store plan for it
celest musk
as if we would do another 10k years xD
deep copper
so basically, no one can confirm if they are saying the truth
you will die before confirming if it lasts that long
zinc matrix
i think if we manage how to get out of solar system?
that would involve producing food on space
what else? propulsion for escaping unpredicted meteoroids
deep copper
or becoming something that doesn't needs complicated food

yea that 2nd microsoft link isn't really helpful, found some other article which claims 360TB capacity

yea that 2nd microsoft link isn't really helpful, found some other article which...
perhaps without redundancy code
celest musk
"it took approximately a week to etch Superman's roughly 76GB of data last year, and Rowstron estimates it would take about three days to re-read the data, with advances made since."
i mean, we got the m-disc, which is supposed to last 1000 years
and they are available to anyone, even most blu ray devices can write them
zinc matrix
an SD properly stored could not last that much too?
celest musk
nope, they are same as SSD and any flash storage and could lose the data even after a year
zinc matrix
even if it is not used?
celest musk
specially then
zinc matrix
creepy i am gong to backup my things
celest musk
flash controllers nowadays usually have firmware which rewrites the cells to refresh them
well, at least in expensive products, not sure if every consumer ssd does that
celest musk
they save data bits by containing a positive/negative charge within the cell, and guess they leak over time
so the charge gets lower and the bit flips
"The JEDEC spec for Enterprise SSD drives requires that the drives retain data for a minimum of 3 months at 40C."
thats enterprise tho, no idea about consumer disks, they may just not follow any standard 😄
zinc matrix
o.o
i never had a flash failure
i still carry a pen-drive of almost 10 year old now
celest musk
maybe you didn't notice it yet
first of all it doesn't have to happen
second, depending on the data format, it could happen but you wont notice, e.g. pictures/audio etc. this data can get corrupted without noticing it unless the meta data gets affected
deep copper
so chance keeps increasing without usage?
celest musk
yes
zinc matrix
if tomorrow i open the PC and Blender files are not there i quit game dev.
celest musk
do regular backups
zinc matrix
i am uploading my 360 mb into cloud right now
celest musk
hard disks aren't as bad as ssds, disks like mdisc/bluray/dvd are affordable and not too expensive and when stored correct last a couple years
other option is tape drives, but the starting cost is way higher as good drives cost as much as a gaming pc 😄
zinc matrix
i think the best is cloud?
celest musk
nah, that's the worst imho 😄
zinc matrix
why?
celest musk
as you have no idea what they are actually doing
celest musk
deep copper
i have heard ssd loses writing capabilities with use, but it can still be read from
celest musk
microsoft may be okay, google, too, if they have the data in several data centers
and you don't have a single point of failure
deep copper
doesn't this means ssds are rather, not good for any safe storage
it's like a very use and throw part
celest musk
they do both, they can loss data over time (unless the controller refreshs the cells) and by writing a cell multiple times it may be destroyed
so SSDs have reserve flash which is used for defect ones
zinc matrix
oh boy! the computer world is darker than i thought

zinc matrix
Yo yo
celest musk
was released 2008, so more like 14 years old now as i got it pretty close to release

close to 14 actually,

Damn, i thought my acer laptop from 2010 was bad ass for surviving so long
celest musk
yea rather 14, as i upgraded to the evo about 1-2 years ago
celest musk
since then it's the main drive of my NAS (which is off most of the time)

lately got an 10 years old dell xps, which is a pity that it's not more up to date

Man Vista was a wierd os
celest musk
the thing is that tech advanced quite a bunch in the last years
considering ssds go from ~600mb/sec to >6000mb/sec thanks to M2

last time i had a blue screen was years ago, when my computer refused to run Dungeon Siege 1
so i installed Linux for the first time
i felt so hacky using apt!
zinc matrix
actually i just opened it for the joke
never used 😄
I uaed kali kinux once so i guess im a hacker now 🤖
celest musk
i used kali when it was backtrack 😄
and lately someone told me that they are the same
then i felt old 😭

I got a metahuman head to work with an opensource face rig app that works with windows
But its still janky 😩
Maybe if i try with 360 kinect cam instead of normal webcam
celest musk
that would only work better if the face rig app supports kinect
otherwise it would work like a normal webcam
you got enough light in your face? if it uses a normal cam it probably requires good lighting
zinc matrix

I think it does that. Its written in Python and the dev was so kind to release a .exe for noobs as me 💩

Head rotation works very well, so that saves a lot of time
celest musk
Depth Sensing like Kinect: No Surprise, as Apple Bought Developer PrimeSense
thought microsoft got their hands on that oO
zinc matrix
Thats the LiveLink for free windows if anyone is interested 🙂
Maybe i should try to out some dots on my face 🤔

Really? For infra red sensors makes sense i guess
Dont those emit a lot of heat
celest musk
not sure which part causes most of the heat
but well, it's a lot of tech on small space
foggy path
Pretty sure it's the battery and main board
celest musk
- wlan
foggy path
It heats up noticeably when charging too
Batteries can release heat when they charge or discharge at a high rate, doing video capture+facial recognition is costly in terms of cpu/gpu so it probably affects it there too
zinc matrix
Im on the verge of buying a iphone just so i can die face mocap
celest musk
dont
foggy path
If you can get one for cheap I'd say it might be worth it, it's fairly hassle-free :P
But if you can't get it for cheap then harder to say
(plus they are nice to use in general)
zinc matrix
Yeah im broke af so it will always be the cheapest sollytion
celest musk
also it's still alot of work to use the data, you wont come around without post editing it
pearl elk
If there was a cheap solution with top tier results everyone would be doing it right. I suppose even if you got mocap you still need actors
zinc matrix
Yeah i did a test with a metahuman head on a fbx body. That was rigged with mixamo. And it worked! Also with facerig controls.
Next step ia to record it somehow and add it to the mixamo animation in sequencer
celest musk
do metahumans come with phoneme morphs?
then it's kind of possible to get at least some lip sync up (without mocap)
zinc matrix
If there was a cheap solution with top tier results everyone would be doing it r...
Very true, but would be able to do some basic little scenes by myself 😋
zinc matrix
do metahumans come with phoneme morphs?
Yeah i think so, i saw some controls for Uuu Ooh Aah etc.
If thats what you mean
celest musk
yea
zinc matrix
Yeah theoreticaly i could handanimate voice overs
But i can also stop motion all the marvel movies with clay 🤪
Thb the head rotation already are a big step forward for me
celest musk
i think those are the least important ones 😄
usually you have game characters look at something, which can be done quite well in code
zinc matrix
Yeah, but am no means a coder haha. I thinks thats the main reason i like ue so much
celest musk
well, it can be done with a little BP + control rig
zinc matrix
True true
I guess the more i can reach a point of translating an idea to a actual cinematic the better, with as less hassle as possible ofc
And i try to retain as much as a learn along the way
But sometimes i just really dont feel like it
💩
celest musk
i'm not an animator, so that live link stuff helps to capture all the "micro movements" that happen usually
which makes characters more alive
for lip sync i may stick to phonemes, too
zinc matrix
Yeah right, even a little nod with livelink looked ten times better then my hand keyframed slavelabour efforts whaha
Im gonna look into those phonememes you call them, i think i saw something somewhere that could read from a transcript and get linked to lipsynced phonomemes
But i think that was maybe for iClone stuff or sum
celest musk

i had a cheap spinable globe, it was fun but not as good as those big heavy spinning ones

Yeah fallout 4
On its own its a decent game, but its modding game takes it next level
Same with fallout new vegas

i like the vibe, but not so much shooting and zombies attacking

No oompf
I played quite a while unmodded, but then played modded and my whole world changed
Damn imma have to buy fo4 again on pc now
Ooh the mods are so good, environment goes next level when you get forest mods
And scrap everything helps for the settlement building if you like that, you just need to be careful cause i have scrapped a hole into the landscape before
Best mod is defo the one that mutes marcy long
Especially cause i love building in sanctuary, and have to hear her all the time

verbal junco
still haven't played FO4 and have no plans to do so
bethsoft murdered fallout for me 😔
unreal ether
still haven't played FO4 and have no plans to do so
I mean fallout 4 is good, but it has nothing on fallout new vegas or the early ones
I just like the settlement building personally
unreal ether
New vegas had a lot of staff from black isles studios so thats why it was good
unreal ether
Like most of the staff working on it made the original ones
verbal junco
story covering much of the same beats
unreal ether
Yeah they did that on purpose iirc
Theres a fan project atm recreating van buren from scratch iirc
Looks pretty cool
verbal junco
the problem I have is that bethsoft games can't accurately scale the world the same way the originals could
or I guess they were unwilling to
ceasar's legion being right on the other side of the damn felt so staged
this giant barbarian army held back by this one tiny defense force?
come now
unreal ether
True, my other issue is that they seem to bend the story in places a bit, and forget elements of the original ones
But fwiw i dont think theyre bad games, just not as true as the originals
verbal junco
they're OK
it's a bethsoft game
not a black isle game
dead money pulled out all the strings though
wasteland 2 and 3 were however really solid
verbal junco
it's more like fallout tactics
but I loved the gameplay
and the world
and the music
Mark Morgan returning in full form
still I wish there'd be more focus on some of the more "off" elements from the originals
like I wanted more locations like ||The Glow|| or ||The Cathedral||
also I can recommend ATOM RPG if you're wanting more original fallout
it's basically fallout russia

quality time means time wwasted on quality things

i am not sure what you are talking about, but if you have to look so deep into figuring out if it's quality time anymore or not, you are probably no longer doing something you enjoy anymore
quality time is often like, it passes away before you even realise it was good
zinc matrix
i do not think like that
verbal junco
one thing quality time isn't: creepy
zinc matrix
you can blow hours with drugs and they will not cost you more than 5$ per hour
