  1. I tried out the new PHOTO tab in #Resolve. Turns out the white border feaurre wasn't quite ready yet. But I like it! Otherwise it's quite the change from Lightroom. Might need some time to switch!

  3. Storm Surge

    In the end,
    will you be faithful?
    That is question.

    When the storm has come and gone,
    when what you thought was precious has been stripped away,
    when you sleep in darkness wondering if the lights will ever come back on,
    when your life in the flash of lightning reverts back to the everyday of your sisters and brothers in the warzone,
    when your plane to those destinations is grounded by the thunder’s roar?

    Will you awake to new resolve for justice?
    Will you spend less time before the screen and more time present to loved ones and those in need of it?
    Will you leave the ground to alight among the troubled?
    Will you listen to them?

    Will the power that comes on be in you,
    through you,
    glowing out through your eyes,
    electrifying,
    filling you with a compassion so compelling
    you become a wire
    among many
    channeling
    love and peace
    to the world?

  5. A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

    Courage is the principal virtue, for all the others presuppose it. If you are afraid, you may do anything.

    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
    Essay (1880-01/02?), “Reflections and Remarks on Human Life,” § 12 “Courage”

  10. Been using #Handbrake to transcode tv show episodes into #AV1 from #HEVC. Took one episode down from 5.6gb to 384mb which was insane. Using very high quality settings, uses a lot of power/CPU so probably not worth it $-wise but hey, gotta use this machine for something!

    About to edit video and photos taken at the karate belt test yesterday. Let’s see how she performs with #DXO #Photolab and #DaVinci #Resolve. #mac #apple #m5max

  12. This morning's wake up video watch is about #DaVinci #Resolve as a FREE and powerful alternative to #Adobe #Premiere. youtube.com/watch?v=4_ceDUKTfq

    I used Resolve for most of the helicopter videos I put on YouTube between 2020 and 2022. It is incredibly powerful, with far more video editing features than I need. I would still be using it today, but when I sold my old desktop computer back in 2023, the laptop I was using while I traveled simply couldn't run it. (1/2)

  16. A quotation from Carlyle

       The last quality, perseverance, I particularly respect: it is the very hinge of all virtues. — On looking over the world, the cause of nine parts in ten of the lamentable failures which occur in men’s undertakings & darken and degrade so much of their history, lies not in the want of talents or the will to use them, but in the vacillating and desultory mode of using them — in flying from object to object, in starting away at each little disgust, and thus applying the force which might conquer any one difficulty to a series of difficulties so large that no human force can conquer them.
       The smallest brook on earth, by continual running, has hollowed out for itself a considerable valley to flow in: the wildest tempest, by its occasional raging, over-turns a few cottages, uproots a few trees, and leaves after a short space no mark behind it. Commend me therefore to the Dutch virtue of perseverance! Without it all the rest are little better than fairy gold, which glitters in your purse, but when taken to the market proves to be — slate or cinders.

    Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) Scottish essayist and historian
    Letter (1822-03-15) to John Carlyle

  20. CornerCut: The Ultimate Solution to Move Premiere Pro Projects to DaVinci Resolve Without XML Every video editor and conform artist knows the familiar dread of migrating a project from Adobe Premie...

  21. @Zambunny
    For my imaging, I use #darktable, which absolutely trashes lightroom. For editing, I switched to #Resolve and gradually migrated off premiere, which is garbage.
    After Effects just didn’t have competition, even though it’s throughly outdated in almost all respects. Held together by the thousands of plugins you needed to batter it to life.

    My biggest client was Amazon, designing and animating explainer videos, until they fired their department and started using generative crap.

  27. A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt

    Let us therefore boldly face the life of strife, resolute to do our duty well and manfully; resolute to uphold righteousness by deed and by word; resolute to be both honest and brave, to serve high ideals, yet to use practical methods. Above all, let us shrink from no strife, moral or physical, within or without the nation, provided we are certain that the strife is justified, for it is only through strife, through hard and dangerous endeavor, that we shall ultimately win the goal of true national greatness.

    Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901–1909)
    Speech (1899-04-10), “The Strenuous Life,” Hamilton Club, Chicago

  29. Datacenter backup of backups

    • A datacenter backup is another building far, far away from the main one (other town / city / country)
    • You need it in case your main datacenter gets into a catastrophy (fire, earthquake, flood, tsunami, sinkhole, meteor strike)
    • The backup datacenter is smaller and has less processing power, but enough to keep demand / response flowing, fair to bit slow, but keep the site(s) on air
    •• backup datacenters are fully uitlized facilities, just smaller
    •• they need the same as the bullet points stated above
    •• they eat RAM HDDs SSDs et all, just at a smaller scale, but still large enough to hit the consumer market severely

    Conclusion

    We are fucked!

    • just kidding ;)

    No we are in heavy seas

    • observe

    History lesson

    • In the 1990's there was a disaster with electrolytic capacitors
    • They were produced with faulty dielectric materials
    • The elco's swelled up (toxic gasses forming) after a short while of working (days, weeks to some months) then exploded or teared open, causing shorts which fried components like chipset IC's CPU's 16550AF UARTS sound ICs etc
    • The capacitors were installed on hundreds of thousands of motherboards

    We survived

    • The computing world did not end!
    • Many of you reading need to look this event up
    • Most of the people who were fixing the boards have forgotten the event period

    We shall overcome the LLM component crises

    • Homo sapiens is a resilient species
    • Our intelligence will prevail

    Stay positive!

    Thank you for reading

  30. 💾 Western Digital

    We are sold out

    WTF!??

    Why?

    • LLM's demolished the server HDD stock.

    Western Digital has run out of HDD capacity for 2026!

    Disaster for consumers small professionals & even large professionals!

    CEO Irving Tan has confirmed the company is running on fumes
    • Purchase orders from major customers & longterm agreements are reaching well into 2K27 & even 2K28!

    • Three years of desert level drought is close for consumers regarding WD HDD's

    Who is buying the HDD stock?

    Datacenters

    • LLM companies (what a set of ^&^#$&^)
    • Cloud & Hyperscale Data Centers
    •• many don't even have their datacenters built
    • These entities now give WD 90% of its revenue.
    • Consumer drives are just 10%.

    Enterprise demand is decumating supply

    • LLM training
    • inference logs
    • scraped STOLEN web data
    • backups
    •• these need many Petabytes of storage

    Even though GPUs get the headlines (whining gamers), HDDs are the crucial backbone of LLM boom
    •• They’re still the most cost-effective way to store Peta and Exabytes of data.

    Results

    • Consumer HDD supplies shrink
    • Enterprise long term agreements {LTA} are locking in multi-year volume + pricing
    • Price pressure is already happening (I feel them already)
    •• A puny 8TiB Western Digital consumer grade HDD was 108USD two years ago all they way to my country of SR / SA
    •• That same 8TiB HDD is now 196 USD to my country if and WHEN I can find it
    ••• I now find other brands easier but due to the higher quality they naturally cost more to begin with
    ••• Toshiba 7 Fujitsu are a few of those brands
    ••• I'd be better off getting a box of 24TiB server grade HDD's
    ••• In bulk ammounts, these cost less per TiB & they have many more IOPs that consumer HDDs

    DRAM and NAND

    We are all suffering from DRAM and NAND prices seeking amazingly horrific heights
    • Try to get a 64GiB to 512GiB microSD card for a normal price (feb 2K25 level)
    • While you are at it do the same with 64GiB to 256GiB USB sticks
    • You won't find them (needles in haystacks aer a snap to find in comparison)
    •• Large microSD cards are for now fairly normally priced (20% more) but I need small ones for my SBC computer(s) which need many OS distro's to boot from, to perform different functions with differen HATs

    Since septenmber 2K25 my beloved consumer HDDs are getting much more expensive also

    The LLM cycle of tsunami like destruction is not just 6nm IC's

    It’s about everything datacenter wise

    What is needed in a datacenter?

    • H2O O2 N2 CU
    •• you need water and those gasses to keep the natural flow of air running in your massive building which looks more like an Amazon storage facility than a computer server building.
    • sand / grounds / realistate
    • steel and iron
    •• without those your facility can't even be build

    • AC \ DC {not our beloved metal band ;)}
    •• you need to power the servers, JBOD enclosures & HDDs, SSD enclosures to cache the HDDs, fibre optic backbones, CU cabling & rails, circuit breakers, switches
    • AC regulation
    •• AC regulation is a whole seperate topic which I'll touch briefly
    ••• I setup matrix UPS systems which take the AC from the grid, convert it to DC then make their own super stable PFC corrected AC for the server racks
    ••• This guarantees stable power on all rails in the datacenter
    • AC is also generated on our own AC generator matrix
    •• Some generators (in FIFO sequence) run concurrently with AC
    •• When AC grid failures occur these generators give power within a few seconds to the UPS matrix, which keep feeding the rails in the buildings
    •• The other generators spool up and stabilize fast keeping the datacenter running smoothly on power
