    In a little under 24 hours, I've rendered 150 of 270 frames of the same scene, so obviously the pace is much better, and from previewing a couple frames, there doesn't seem to be a noticeable loss of quality. There are some fireflies that didn't used to be there, so I need to figure out how to address that.

    The difference between ignorance and apathy? 

    I don't know, and I don't care.

    I have a stupid cat I have to keep shutting out of my lounge where there is a cat tree, pelmets and cupboards he can freely use and toys

    ...because the one place he is not allowed is on my computer pulling out and chewing my cables!!!

    guess where he goes

    I have a small table and several boards taped together as a barrier on my desk and he still worms his way in every opportunity in spite of me yelling, stopping my monitor from falling while grabbing him and shutting him out of the room each time his does it

    my other cat sits on my lap

    he used to but has developed this craving for wrecking my desktop in spite of having a whole house with places he can crawl into freely like cat tunnels, boxes with ping pong balls, I literally have cat playthings and ledges (pelmets) in every room

    thinking of buying an air horn canister to keep by my PC

    he leaves it alone if I am not using it

    Fixed all the foot sliding, although there are some small tweaks I could still make to certain animations. I also tried a different color grade, and am on the way to figuring out how to keep my render times more reasonable without sacrificing quality.

    looks good but they sure are in a rush

    maybe it's an Australian thing but we tend to saunter more leisurely than that

    however

    you could run it through RIFE interpolater doubling your video length

    It is cyberpunk future Seattle, so I think they're moving at a pretty reasonable pace.

    Breaking News: Oscar Mayer has retired the title "Wienermobile"... From this point forward the iconic vehicle is to be known as the "Frankmobile".

    In stunned silence the world asks "Why?"...

    Franks everywhere rejoice.

    I was munching on carrots then found this strange carrot.

    That's no carrot, that's an Oompa Loompa finger... I think you were eating Oompa Loompa fingers... I guess the rumors about what happens to Oompa Loompas when they are retired from Wonka's factory are true.

    Technically, it would be Oompa Loompa Cake, but yes they do taste great baked and are also a rich source of beta carotene, loompic acid, vitamin E, ooppaflavin and calcium (if you grind up the bones)... and baking does not destroy the rich flavor or reduce the vitamin content.

    Contrary to many online articles from questionable sources, "organic" Oompa Loompas do not have more flavor or vitamins, as all Oompa Loompas are descendants of a batch brought to England by Wonka Ordinance Works LTD (Later  "Wonka Chocolate and Munitions LTD" and finally "Wonka's Chocolate Factory") before a combination hurricane, tsunami, sharknado and volcano (technically a "Tsuhurrisharknacano") utterly destroyed the island of Loompaland in 1891... that group was genetically modified by feeding them gamma irradiated cocoa beans in an effort to create hulk-like super-soldiers, but all the radiation did was make them plump and tasty... So there is no such thing as a truly organic non-GMO Oompa Loompa, as they are all genetically modified by gamma radiation.

    However, there are several recipes available online that will provide both delicious and nutritious meals using Oompa Loompa: 10 Truly Amazing Oompa Loompa Dishes   and   Making The Most Of Your Holiday Oompa Loompa 

    My favorites are Loompa Stew and Loompa Custard... and if you have a meat grinder, you should try making the sausage.

    Perhaps Oopa Lumpas are the resultant evolution of shmoos?wink  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shmoo

    Those frickin things used to give me the creeps when I was a little kid.

  • TJohnTJohn Posts: 11,156

    It's creepy just because Shmoos lay eggs and bottles of Grade A milk, and gladly will be killed and eaten?

    Apparently in these parts of the woods July 4 is a special day.

    Don't sell them short.  They lay cartons of eggs. yes

    And being willing to be your meal is also a schtick from "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe" scenes in the original movie "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe" decades later than Shmoos from Lil' Abner.

    Ah - Arthur Dent.

    Ah - Arthur Dent.

    18610 Arthurdent?... aka... (provisional designation) 1998 CC2... the 3.5 kilometer diameter S-type (Siliceous) asteroid from the middle region of the asteroid belt?

    Well, yes indeed... now there's a good stony asteroid for you... None of that K-Type or P-type low albedo carbonaceous chondrites nonsense... Trying to get attention with their rich reddish organic silicates like 476 Hedwig or mysteriously suggesting they may hold water within them like 221 Eos... 

    Their showboating is rather pathetic... What you want in an asteroid is a good orbital eccentricity of at least 0.20 to 0.21 and an inclination of at 6° with respect to the ecliptic and that's good ol' 18610 Arthurdent, thank you and good day... 
    Old 18610 Arthurdent/1998 CC2 is the kind of minor planetary body you can trust to get the job done... you might not know it's true shape, but you know if you go there, it's going be there when you need it.

    At the end of the day that's all you really want from an asteroid... that and not slamming into your planet and wiping out your dinosaurs.

    I miss dinosaurs.

    A lot.
