A quick google shows that a significant proportion of the arguments presented in this ‘movie’ have already been thoroughly debunked. For example, https://skepticalscience.com/climate-the-movie-a-hot-mess-of-cold-myths.html has a nice summary.

Fascinating read - interesting that the origin of the hack is not yet known (or at least, released). I wonder what the stats are on these sorts of exploits in OSS - the concept relies so much on trust and individuals.

Yes, and I understand the process pretty well I think, as well as what I’m striving to output (long time Lightroom user). But the DT just doesn’t respond how I expect it to, with unexpected results. Frustrating.

Wasn’t aware of the pixls site though; I like that idea!

I really, really want to like Darktable, mostly because of the name lol. I must’ve tried it 8 or 10 times over the years, but I just can’t get my head around it. Something about the design language or the UI or something just doesn’t click for me and I can’t get decent images out of it. So I keep going back to Rawtherapee, even though I’d rather not…

I got to play with a Hololens a bit when my brother brought one home from work. Astonishing tech.

To be fair, this has been pretty standard corporate-speak in most industries for a long time. It’s (typically) referring to giving people a reason to stay with your product - we used to use this exact phrase in reference to our complementary training programmes that were included with the product.

But, this is HP, so locked in means LOCKED IN. So, fuck HP 😂

Pretty sure they’re asking for software FOR Windows, rather than Windows itself.

The *arr suite all have web front ends - so you open the page from your phone or laptop etc, add the show you want and off they go with the download, rename, cataloging etc. It it is generally quite elegant in the way it works.

I like the comparisons with synthesizers, digital cameras, Photoshop etc. Not an aspect I’d considered before, so it will be interesting if we do in fact see a “creativity boom” as a result of these new techs…

Personally, I’ve found the text based LLMs to be invaluable in parts of my professional life - for example, churning out boilerplate type text for procedural documents. It’s a tool to be used when appropriate, but currently it’s new and shiny…

Arrrrr!

Fascinating read, cheers.

Brilliant, Cheers. Will see what he feels like running for his mates and go from there. Cheers, this is a brilliant resource, kudos.

Very nicely done - and a great selection of others there too. My son is a budding DM so these will be perfect for him. How does your patreon work? I’m assuming there’s something preventing people from signing up for a month and simply downloading everything!

There’s really nothing other than Bitwig and Ableton that deals well with loops/clips, or has that clip-based workflow.
