the best part was video rental places got people complaining they got a bad tape. movies should be stored in the blockchain where computers use math to preserve their quality forever. or stored on vinyl for that warm and more authentic feel that you just can't show on an oscilloscope or computer because they don't have real ears or souls. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance_Electronic_Disc

Heresiarch posted:the tech that 3dfx was developing when they got bought out formed the basis of nvidia's massively parallel technologies, so in a way we're all using the descendants of those ridiculous multi-core 3dfx cards they were starting to make at the end there eh not really. nv was already doing parallelism before buying tdfx, and it was stuff that was p much the obvious way to go for everyone (ie sgi had already been there done that). also even though they used the tdfx trademark SLI for multi GPU stuff it doesnt work like tdfx SLI at all, tdfx style SLI died with the company iirc they bought tdfx as a combination acquihire and patent war chest grab, tdfx tech was not really worth pursuing further at that point

Having Dropbox sneak onto my computer while upgrading Avast has raised my eyebrow. I always loved Avast and never minded allowing them to collect (and sell?) data scrubbed to remove personal info or them trying to sell the upgrade - these fine people have bills to pay and families to feed. I always wished the cabal of silk suited government, corporate, union, and Federal Reserve henchmen had left me with more fiscal skin on my body so that I could afford to throw them a few fiat dollars that they force me to use to buy and sell. Be that all as it is, I don't like the sneaky add-ons, even if the program is not bad.

bucketmouse posted:weird fact: a bunch of people who are vocal in the 3d graphics programming community are obsessed with vhs and perfectly replicating the distortion from bad tapes. at least one guy actually emulated the spec in software to the point where it actually simulates things like the tape folding over itself, being creased/dirty etc. vhs is the new vinyl i wonder if i can make money by running tapes back and forth on my s-vhs decks until they're properly degraded edit: i bet the time base correctors would gently caress it up by repairing it wrong or something atomicthumbs fucked around with this message at 02:57 on Sep 27, 2014 |

(she apologized for his behavior) after he left we figured out he was talking about around 28:00 where tarantino has a "film coming off the projector" effect
