    I need to spend more time with Bryce.. seen some amazing abstract art, which is what I need as images for my music!

    Lunch: two hot dogs (one with yellow mustard, one with spicy brown mustard) and a bottle of PowerAde Zero. Nice! :)

    I support spending as much time in Bryce as possible

    Still the best for whatever is wondrous strange :)

    Yep. Bryce is cheap, does what it says on the tin, has a pile of tools, and is just what I need. :coolsmile:

    Just a HUGE learning curve.. urgh.. :-S

    Found the computer I wanted at Best Buy - an HP Envy 17, with a 2GB NVidia card, for just under $1000. Soon as I get my refund, I'm going to go buy it and come home with it! Maybe 2 weeks or so, getting a refund takes FOREVER.. ugh.. oh well.

    chunk of my weekend will prolly be in photoshop. projects trying to make eyebrows and lips without hard outlines. doing the trick of starting really really big and then shrinking the texture. not so bad, eyebrows and lips are small areas of skin. the puckery skin bits are tricky, i took a few selfie pics to use :red:

    big decision of staying with aiko3 or moving on the genesis Aiko3 shape and Aiko5. running xinxin and sylfie through the TC2 converter. then try to use the aiko5 resource morph packs to try for sylfie's face shape. and my favorite Laura3 characters. Mama Pook. :) and my favorite David3s.

    there's some kewl undead mil3 skins i'se hoping look good after the converter process.

    i'm gonna have to stay away from jellybeans, to keep my head clear.

    CCENT test is 150 dollars. plus getting to the test center. the next available test date isn't til end of Sept.

    don't know a thing yet about IPv6. does it have octets and subnet masks?

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675
    edited December 1969

    IPv6 has a larger, 128-bit address space, providing for 340 undecillion addresses. That is the number 340, followed by
    36 zeros.
    36 ZEROS?!

    EEEKS, this is in the IPv6 chapter. i hope i'm long dead before this happens.

    The sensor-equipped, Internet-ready devices of tomorrow will include everything from
    automobiles and biomedical devices to household appliances
    and natural ecosystems. Imagine a meeting at a customer site that
    is automatically scheduled on your calendar application to begin an
    hour before you normally start work. This could be a significant problem,
    especially if you forget to check the calendar or adjust the alarm clock
    accordingly.

    Now imagine that the calendar application communicates
    this information directly to your alarm clock and to your
    automobile. Your alarm clock wakes you up in plenty of time to get ready
    for your meeting, and your car automatically warms up to melt the ice on the windshield
    before you enter the car, and then gives you instructions for which route to take to
    your meeting.

    What? You'd rather miss the meeting? :lol: They already have remote starters for cars...have for several years. Diane's car has one. I get jealous, because I don't have one. It's nice, the snow and ice melt off the windows and the inside is already cozy when she goes out to the car. It doesn't remove all the snow, though. But having the windshield warmed up helps a lot

    Besides, I think in that future, meetings will be via holographic communications, anyway! Just be sure you're dressed before you go out to the room where the comm device is! Especially if the meeting is already underway, or if there are those who are there 15 minutes early. :-P

    It's happening now. The gate controller I'm working on will talk both to your smartphone and your home security system, which will talk to the Internet. Not our first release, but only 1-2 more years.

    This isn't science fiction, I'm working on it right now. :blank:

    Good question! I was working on IPv6 specifications and implementation concepts back in the early 90s. It has it's problems but it also has a lot of momentum issues to overcome.

    I was working on DSL specifications and implementation concepts back in the early 80s. How long did it take for that to become mainstream?

    As I said in one of these forums just the other day. "It's amazing how great ideas can be discussed to death in committee."

    And heaven forbid, some idea should be given to the National Bureau of Standards who have whole buildings full of committee people just waiting to beat on lively ideas until the ideas are so thick with calluses they can't bend.

    You know the joke is that God asked the National Bureau of Standards to design him a more general purpose horse. They came up with the Elephant .

    ...have the TC2 converter, still need to learn how to use it.


    Diet anything is bad, those lab created sweeteners can be worse than cane sugar. There are brands of unsweetened Ice Tea (don't think Snapple makes one though). Do any stored in your area sell Golden Peak™ (that's the one I get.)?

    ..OK having trouble locating a certain prop. For the rendering old content in Iray Challenge thread, I decided to crecreate the first full scene i ever rendered. Sadly some of the props I used were freebies which no longer exist and the files for them on my backups were corrupted. Save for the main character (Leela), I'm trying to keep the substitutions with newer content to a minimum. The one I am having trouble finding (and I'm sure I have it somewhere, just don't remember the name) is the "super soaker" squirt gun seen on the oil drum next to her. I think it was created for Sixus1's Britta character.

    Searched all over ShareCG and Rendo last night but couldn't find it.

    Apologies for the small size.

    ...thank you. Looks very close and I can change the colours to match the original.

    What did you use as the keyword? I tried so many different ones and never saw this.
