[08:40:02] <systemd> ^ 0303If Star Wars had a $10 Budget - Full Movie
[09:25:30] <Ingar> halibut: the difficulty is in stabilizing the image, I have software that centers every frame but it gets confused with the eclips
[09:25:49] <Ingar> and ofc, massive amounts of data :)
[09:28:01] <Ingar> AlwaysNever: solar is indeed something different :-)
[09:40:43] <Ingar> having to make sure you don't burn out your eyes add something to the exitement ;-)
[09:41:21] <halibut> Ah. That makes sense.
[09:51:51] <Ingar> halibut: http://ingar.intranifty.net during maximum, it moved the crescent sun to the middle of the image, looks a bit funny, but I think I can live with it :-)
[09:55:08] <halibut> There is something kind of freaky about seeing the moon move like that.
[09:55:43] <halibut> Cool video. The shift is weird, but a neat effect. I also really like when the atmosphere starts causing extra distortions, and then the sun moves behind the tree.
[09:58:35] <fab23> the tree moves into the front of the sun :)
[10:03:28] <halibut> Nonsense. Trees are too big to move like that.
[10:05:22] <fab23> lol
[10:05:34] <Ingar> halibut: that is incorrect, I know more than one person who ran his car into a tree suddenly crossing the road
[10:15:41] <halibut> That is clever. Was alcohol involved? I think trees like alcohol. They would probably move into the road if they detected it coming from a car.
[10:18:02] <Ingar> The trees might have been suffering from old age and might have been a bit confused.
[10:18:51] <Ingar> in the manwhile, do you say "recorded for a live audience" or "recorded with a live audience", or does it depend on what you want to say?
[10:19:11] <Ingar> Like in these old TV shows "Happy Days was recorder for/with a live audience"
[10:19:16] <Ingar> *recorded
[10:20:04] <Ingar> Wikipedia to the rescue
[10:20:08] <Ingar> "Happy Days is filmed before a live audience"
[10:20:17] <halibut> I would guess ``with'' ... but I do not have much experience with live audiences. In the rare instances where I was in the vicinity of a live audience, it became a dead audience very quickly.
[10:23:11] <Ingar> I somewhat learned stage presence tthe hard way
[10:23:57] <Ingar> as I kid, I was dead nerveous for my first live performances, these days I'm "stage is mine, don't like it? go away"
[10:24:15] <Ingar> customer service experience helps though :-D
[10:25:00] <Ingar> for thisvideo it is just a little joke ofc
[10:26:39] <Ingar> also
[10:26:47] <Ingar> chromas: that cardboard starwars looks damn hilarious
[10:39:56] <Ingar> Why is it that, in essence, every GTK app, has to have a garbage UI
[10:40:17] <Ingar> (answer: because GTK is a garbage UI)
[11:24:15] <Ingar> Finished product http://ingar.intranifty.net
[11:24:39] <Ingar> (it's also the 1440x1440 version compared to the 1080p version the plebs is getting)
[12:22:39] <fab23> =submit https://www.schneier.com
[12:22:42] <systemd> fab23, submit failed: 04Key not found: reskey
[12:56:36] <AlwaysNever> Ingar: that MP4 video is amazing! So very nice.
[13:01:13] <Ingar> AlwaysNever: thanks!
[13:01:24] <chromas> =rehashctl login
[13:01:27] <systemd> k
[13:01:47] <chromas> I think it lost its login cookie. sub should work again
[13:02:29] <AlwaysNever> I saw first the B/W mp4 video, then de sepia mp4 one with the music; I like more the B/W mute one, perhaps because I saw it first so my amazement is "fused" to it?
[13:03:31] <chromas> Put the Spaceballs opening Jaws music
[13:06:18] <fab23> =submit https://www.schneier.com
[13:06:18] <systemd> Submitting "If the Markets Reject OpenAI and Anthropic, the US Should Nationalize Them"...
[13:06:19] <systemd> Sub-ccess! "03If the Markets Reject OpenAI and Anthropic, the US Should Nationalize Them" (21p) -> https://soylentnews.org
[13:06:23] <fab23> \o/
[13:10:43] <AlwaysNever> what is meant to convey with "filmed before a live audience" in the video? No people is heard - I think. Was the audience causing turbulence?
[13:12:13] <Ingar> Because there were people and I hade live view. Besides that it is just a silly references to happy days
[13:12:25] <chromas> I think it's a reference to Happy Days, when the Fonz jumps over the moon
[13:13:22] <Ingar> ugh I uploaded it to my youtube and it made it a short
[13:13:40] <Ingar> (there's nothing there, jsut for convenience ;-)
[13:14:54] <chromas> Shorts are usually portrait mode right? Did you shrink down the video to maintain aspect ratio then letterbox it with a zoomed blurred copy of the same video? :D
[13:16:13] <Ingar> it is square and just below 2 minutes
[13:18:40] <chromas> For the Tiktok version, paste in Yello's Oh Yeah (the part where it mentions the sun and moon)
[13:19:39] <fab23> Swiss Music!
[13:20:00] <chromas> Appropriate for a moon made of cheese
[13:20:09] <fab23> \o/
[14:23:31] <Ingar> Personally, I'd go for a Yodling Austrian
[14:23:38] <Ingar> just to confuse matters
