...another concern with a cloud rendering service being hacked, you are sending a raw scene file with all the data for all the geometry, morph, and texture files used, so not only would just the hacking be an issue, but, possibly pirating of the actual meshes. This is part of the reason Daz has been so cautious about 3D printing permissions.
Render farms take care not to "lose" assets in my experience, makes sense cos they want your business again. The agreement/TOS covers those concerns in the fine print :)
...I can agree with the big established ones having fiarly bulletproof security as they cater to professionals and design firms with big money and important contracts at stake. It is the smaller start up operations that I am more concerned about.

Hey intriguing and OK now I wants more please ?
Okay will try to write more, but I have an important phone call at nine.
It's Friday, Friday! :cheese: And you gotta get down on Friday! :coolsmile:
Only one complaint: I'm broke for a week! *cry* *cry* In 2 minutes I spent $1300 :ahhh: :bug: and so it's back to hot dogs and Top Ramen.. maybe splurge on Spicy Kimchi Bowl Noodles... :blank:
..BUT..
THIS will be waiting for me in the local store soon! :snake: :snake:

My new baby should be ready tonight or tomorrow for in-store pick-up.. this is the first computer I've bought that I won't have to upgrade (lol)! :gulp: 16GB of RAM, i7 4720 quad-core, TOUCH SCREEN :bug: - the works! :coolsmile:
4GB VRAM.. this thing could run iRay.. which is a nice touch.
Honestly, for music I don't need anywhere this much raw power, but if I push further back into 3D work it'll;be ready for it - or if I decode to do movie soundtracks for a living (lol)!
Next weekend will be TRANSFER DAY - move everything on to the new system. I expect it to take about a week to move everything I have over and rebuild my studio setup around this new machine.
She has a name - she is Charybdis!

Appropriate as my current machines name is Scylla. :snake:
Anyway, this should last me another 4-5 years and stop me whining about how slow my laptop is! :blank:
*edit* Aaaaaaaaaannnndddd.. it's in the store waiting for me! Going to go pick it up after work!! :cheese: :cheese:
Ambesol does work for some pain. But it's only temporary relief and needs to be reapplied several times a day. OK for surviving a weekend to get to a dentist but not for the long run.
Of course it all depends on the source of the pain. If it's deep seated tooth rot or jaw infection then serious work needs to be done. But if it's just surface infection of gums or an exposed root, then time, cleaning, and healthy mouth care can take care of it for a while.
I have a problem with exposed tooth roots. The porous nature of the root material lets sugars and other chemicals seep through to the nerve and cause nagging and quite irritating almost severe pain. However, I've found (by the recommendation of my dentist) that "Sensodyne" toothpaste designed with particles just the right size to plug the tooth root pores works quite well to keep my tooth pain in check as long as I continue to use the "Sensodyne" toothpaste.
I also have had a problem with popcorn hulls getting wedged under my gums, next to a tooth and hidden there breeding infection that was excruciating until I finally cleaned well enough to find the infected popcorn hull and dislodge it. Afterwards, antiseptic mouthwash and keeping my mouth clean eventually cured the infection.
I believe in dentists. Been going to them all my life. I thank my mother for that habit. Yes, they are expensive and unless you're employed by a really successful company you probably don't have very good (if any) dental insurance. I'm retired and have discovered that Medicare doesn't cover dental work. I have a Medicare "Part C" ("Medicare Advantage") plan through UnitedHealthCare and there's something in the phonebook sized plan specification document that says that it covers some sort of dental work but my dentist always claims that they never get any reimbursement from UnitedHealthCare so I end up footing the entire bill. My standard cleaning and checkup is $98. A crown recently cost me $800. I don't know what a root canal would cost but it won't be cheap. But if your pain is severe you should have a dentist look at it. Not to panic you, but tooth problems can become extremely serious if left unattended.
One alternative if you're in a big city area is to look for a dental college and see if you can get in as a patient and get the courage to volunteer to let dental students practice on you for a lot less money than a licensed practicing dentist (I'm always afraid of that word "practice" when applied to people poking around in my body.)
If worse comes to worst and your tooth has to be removed then you can tell the dentist that he can keep the tooth in lieu of cash, he must have a better connection to the tooth fairy than you do. %-P
sugars? as in jellybeans sugar?
can't quit cold turkey. only one deathstar half-full of jellybeans left.
Looks good, though.

Yeah.. there's a store closer to me, but they don't have that model and I flat-out refuse to see this thing shipped even as far as 10 blocks!

"Inside Out" new PIXAR movie/cartoon. Gets 4 out of 5 in my book. :cheese: Yeah, a little sappy, a little teen angst, a little long in spots, but the voices in the heads are spot on. :-) Gotta pay attention to the mechanism of the mind, it all ties together in the end. Nothing wasted. Don't miss the stuff at the end of the movie. :lol:
Trees laid bare by wintery winds waving branches like starving limbs outstretched in accusation at the broody dark sky that stole all the sun :)

was Mary queen of Scotts actually Scottish? was just thinking prolly not safe to assume.
Bonny Prince Charlie, is that bonny as in bonny lass?
Perhaps he was thin, lanky, and angular, and a misspelling is in play?

found a statue of him. he was a Stuart. vaguely remember reading something about Stuart. a war or something.
on the viking tv series, 800s, there was 4 kingdoms in England. in season1 they were raiding Northumbria.
not finding Mary queen of Scotts statue, search shows her death mask. they executed her.

Hmmm... funny, he doesn't look like Stewart.
whoa sounds great, and new compy sounds OK as well :lol:

Bonny Prince would have been Charles 3 of England but couldn't get it together enough to have a successful rebellion. His dad was called The Auld Pretender, he was the Young Pretender to the English throne and a descendant of Mary Stuart and her son James I of England who took over when Elizabeth I last of the Tudors died :)
Took the fun outta being Queen dinna it?
