Maybe it's just the way he treats the homeless and hillsbrough victims...

Apple after Steve Jobs by blind_snipain technology

[–]coppersink 2 points3 points ago

the creation of a program to match employee gifts to charity

Something a lot of Redditors will be happy to hear. The standard go-to replies to Jobs' lack of charity is "the company was losing money when he arrived!".

Yet Apple was not well known for charitable acts in the years after it made lots of money, and while Jobs may well have given money away completely anonymously he certainly was not well known for philanthropic endeavours.

It's good that Apple is doing 'more good' for the world.

It works, because Fry is awesome and Davies is kind of a dick.

Can we get a new tagline as well... Something, something WAR! will do.

Oh here we go again. by sirpolluxin Games

[–]coppersink 0 points1 point ago

So... the author would like the damn kids to get off their lawn?

I would like to write an article: "How soap operas, pop music and shopping have ruined a generation of girls", just to see how out of touch I can appear.

Blizzard delays Diablo III real-money auctions indefinitely by zakislamin Games

[–]coppersink 1 point2 points ago

Sooo.... wasn't this whole 'always on' DRM-style internet connection specifically to ensure the RMAH could happen?

Does this not kinda suggest that Blizzard have truly fucked up badly?

This is clearly the Other-M Samus.

Avid MC6/Pro Tools vs. Premiere Pro CS6? by alittlefilmin Filmmakers

[–]coppersink 0 points1 point ago

Try both. The CS6 package has a lot to offer, including speedgrade which would be good to learn, and some people get a lot out of AVID.

I would personally go with Premiere for it's integration with After Effects.

Am I transcoding fast enough? by mr0be00in editors

What a machine.

Is this normal performance for Premiere CS5.5? by mr0be00in editors

[–]coppersink 0 points1 point ago

Well, I guess it comes down to what is acceptable. 'No lag at all' is clearly not correct and indeed it would entirely depend on your hardware.

I think however that having the option to not have to transcode and for it to still be pretty solid and usable is a great leap forward over the alternative - and of course you can still transcode if you want.

“You’ve Got To Try This Soda”: Sony Patents Game-Interrupting Advertisements Scheme by mehgandavidin Games

[–]coppersink 51 points52 points ago

They'd never force Ads on you during games you've paid a lot of money for.

LOL That's a good one.

“You’ve Got To Try This Soda”: Sony Patents Game-Interrupting Advertisements Scheme by mehgandavidin Games

[–]coppersink 171 points172 points ago

Sure, DLC and other schemes are finding new ways of squeezing pennies from customers, but game-halting adverts? That's the real way to piss off your customer-base.

One of my favorite movies when I was younger. Titan A.E. by _Gingyin movies

[–]coppersink -1 points0 points ago

reference to w40k perhaps?

Most likely not.

The film came out in 2000. The Tau were not introduced to 40k until 2001.

It took me barely a minute to google this.

Anderson Cooper quizzes supporter of pastor who proposes concentration camps for gay people. Her responses are a microcosm of the conservative christian attitude. by madam1in news

[–]coppersink 1 point2 points ago

"You think gays need to be put 'behind fences' to die?"

"That was taken out of context... but yes, that's exactly what we think should happen."

Is this normal performance for Premiere CS5.5? by mr0be00in editors

[–]coppersink 4 points5 points ago

Yup, as chugachh3dguy says it's normal.

As you mention in the footage the H264 video is usable - whereas before CS5 and CUDA it would not have been at all.

The thing of course is that you can edit these, at high quality, directly from the camera without spending all the time transcoding to ProRes or in your case Cineform.

But of course something has to give... in this case you sacrifice the buttery smooth playback your cineform transcodes have.

I guess you get to decide whether you want to edit immediately and live with the slight delays in scrubbing, or if you can wait for the transcodes.

Behind the scenes of the Iron Man HUD by Rongxinin movies

[–]coppersink -1 points0 points ago

The link you posted is not behind the scenes of Avengers. It's a tutorial to create VFX similar to it.

Again: it was not a request for a tutorial to create similar effects. It was a request for slightly more information than a single screen shot.

Try learning something for yourself!

I've used AE for years. I would be able to re-create the HUD effects without a tutorial.

[–]coppersink 0 points1 point ago

My point was that is single image is hardly great Behind the Scenes material, and simply shows which software was used at one point.

Sigh....

It wasn't a request for a tutorial.
