Next level up challenge, AOIP.

Unfortunately that sort of work isn’t in the cards right now :/

I saw Furious 7 in a laser IMAX. The movie was garbage but the presentation was stellar. I’m hoping some local theaters get laser IMAX in time for Star Wars Episode IX.

Yeah the lack of true imax in Portland is a bummer, the one up here in Seattle was stunning.

In portland you do have Cinetopia though, which is excellent even if it isnt Dolby Cinema or laser IMAX. I also saw it in Dolby Cinema today, which was just as, if not more, impressive than laser IMAX was

Wait so Hollywood didn't do a GitS or Dragonball part 2? Damn, now I need to watch this.

They did not, it was fantastic.

I wouldnt buy too much into the hype, that may just lead to disappointment, but i am excited to see what AMD pulls off with Zen 2.

But, I am also excited to see Intel's first new micro-architecture since Skylake when they release Icelake later this year on 10nm

Yeah ofcourse we will see what happens. It's good to see some competition from AMD again though. Intel is in a bit of trouble with 10nm i wouldn't be suprised if it ends up being 2020 before they get 10nm going.

I am eyeing 2700X & 2600X for the insane value. Ryzen has really added some flavour to the mix. My i5 3570K has been running for 7 years at 4.20-4.50 GHz so can't complain. Going to go with Ryzen next.

Neck to neck with i9, but 200€ cheaper here

Luckily I won’t be dealing with that, I’m working on a hardware tcp/ip stack someone else wrote, I guess I should be happy I don’t have to write it myself

Ha! I thought you were just doing basic stuff. I'll shut up now

its all good, im just trying to figure out what packets are going where from all these different modules, i got mac-to-phy modules, ethernet modules, ip modules and udp modules. too many modules :P

also, getting system wide PEQ working on linux was a nightmare :P

On my Dell rant. Dell Ultra Sharp monitors are good, maybe Latitudes are good too. I have seen a few of these older XPS fall apart. Was not impressed, no one is sayin there isnt room for improvement.

I still have an old X220 that works perfectly since 2011, just had to replace the battery and thermal paste.

I use an X1, and it's great (linux, with a Win10 VM guest for MS Office). Everything is great- except that you sometimes need to power it off manually. Less of a pain to netboot than the XPS13 too.

I would never have thought to check out the arch wiki though, thanks for that one @Riotvan

@SoupRKnowva It seems some config was written after launch. There are tools for searching for application config files in the terminal. Need to figure out their location and see what is wrong when things dont work.

The cool part later is when you start using automated scripts and what these can do.

I used to mess up my Linux several times, because terminal is powerful.

I think I might’ve finally gotten it working, we will see though. I had to update my bios? Whatever, now I can finally move on to getting my tools working, which should be even more fun

Make a script to do most of that, and include your .rc and .login files, then make a `dotfiles` repo on github to house them (no secrets, of course).

Next time you need to do it, it's installing git, pulling, and running script(s).

that was my plan exactly, the problem is i have to get it all set up the first time before i can script it all :P

Awesome, congrats!

(Christian Bale voice) Good for you!

Nice, have fun!

I was sad when I didn’t get tickets to the LA show several weeks ago, but then they announced the Vancouver show which is much more convenient for me. I can’t wait

Be sure to do a lap around Stanley Park, nice park in the heart of downtown (even though a massive wind storm knocked down a lot of tree's a little over a decade ago).

Cool. I thought about going to the LA dates but I think it coincides with my heavy work load days. I will be seeing Tiffany Young in March. Also, may want to save up for Blackpink's upcoming tour.

@purr1n did not lead me astray by saying it is similar, but better, than the Gungnir DS I like so much

The hype is over, it's the real deal.

Riverside is also similar and good.

@Deep Funk, as a heads up they're coming to Effenaar for the 2 day Prognosis festival in march!

Other proggy bands I like are Caligula's Horse and Leprous if anyone wants to check them out too :P

After doing it three times, I've moved on...but I'm still tempted sometimes Lol.

I’m selling mine but haven’t listed them yet, message me!

You're on a roll, don't stop now!

What I need is some more JP Trodden, been out for a while

Castanets are nothing special.

This instrument defies the laws of physics - I swear I listened to these through a NOS DAC and literally heard NOTHING! **mind blown**

Or my volume was off ;-)

Good luck, you got this!

I can’t wait for this quarter to be over :)

Good luck dude! Make sure to get plenty of rest too - no favors done to yourself by writing finals sleepy.

Yup, taking care of yourself is part of the battle. Good luck!
