Apparently not the HBO Max stream in the post that started all of this, which has ugly clipped highlights from an HDR stream served to an SDR display.

HDR content to not-full-brightness-capable display autoconversion was a terrible idea. Take the color grading away from someone with an eye for aesthetics and give it to a dumb algorithm.

It does exist, it's option #2. It sucks.

You could do that, but most raw processing software is not equipped to handle tile-based aligning and merging so nothing would support it...

The problem with phone raws is that either: 1. They're not raw, they're aligned and merged and denoised and sharpened just like this iPhone photo (they're just linear so you can adjust white balance and recover shadows, worki

The facts are sound, the product photography is solid, you just need to stay away from the opinions which are... hot takes at best. His Nikon F-mount compatibility chart is absolutely fine though.

Plug-in hybrids can be as simple as normal hybrids with bigger motors and batteries. On power-split device hybrids, the hybrid system outright replaces the automatic transmission which is the true "insanely complex" component.

The measured wingspan (using the Google Maps distance measure tool) is around 200 feet whereas the measured wingspan of a B-2 on the ground at nearby Whiteman AFB is the nominal 172 feet, so its altitude AGL is roughly 14% of the altitude o

I cannot fathom why the Kinesis keyboards don't have thumb shift by default. At least it's customizable.

The site is called positive-feedback for a reason. Did you expect it to be a critical review?

Volvo, maybe?

The conversion formulas are applied after you linearize though…

I grew up mostly on K'NEX but there was one Lego kit I just had to have, and that was this.

This is why after I got used to a split layout, I recreated it in one piece. Also because I type with the keyboard on my lap and I had to use the split on a piece of plywood to keep it flat...

Improve the performance but reduce the lifespan.

As someone with a Topre Realforce and a reproduction Model F capacitive buckling spring, I say that layout matters much more and I use a fully custom ergonomic keyboard (Mitosis layout but not split) with Kailh Box Navy switches, which are

If that counts, then my flight of a demo Aerotech aerospike HPR reload counts.

The Rivian is not a work pickup though, it has a tiny bed.

There are two things in life that bring me joy like no other, and they're basically the same: completing a physical fabrication project and successfully implementing something in code. The elation I get when it comes out exactly the wa

And yet the newly released album I just bought has plenty of dynamic range on the vinyl and heavily clipped FLAC downloads.

I can't trust CDs or digital downloads to not be Loudness War mastered.

The US doesn't make a lot of this type of battery because there is a consortium of patent-holders who charge enough to make LFP less economically viable that wasn't able to secure all the needed patents in China.

In my experience with Japanese, DeepL is good at making plausible but inaccurate sentences. A good visual illustration: https://www.theverge.com/21298762/face-depixelizer-ai-machin...

The human eye has quite a lot of chromatic aberration, and if you basically get rid of the blue it makes it a lot easier to focus on distant things. My vision is perfectly corrected for infinity when I have my glasses on under normal condit

I'm interested in Qt 6 for Ubuntu 16.04 which is currently what I build my AppImages on.

Things are not so peachy over in Linux. I do see Qt 6 in MSYS2 though, so maybe I can use it only for my Windows builds.

by CarVac 5y ago
I'm patiently waiting for it to become available in open-source repositories. I may need to set up some other way to use it for my builds…
