STOP #gafam

Spent last half hour chatting (so slowly) over #JS8call on 40 meters with a radio and music nerd from 470 miles away. All via magic radio waves going out over wire hanging from a painter's pole, powered by a measly 2 watts.

And what do we do with this magic communication method?

That's right, we shit on #Avid and #ProTools.

Manchester Monday 2 24th November 2025.

G-BTGL, Avid Flyer Speed Wing, being prepared for a flight outside one of the hangars at Manchester Barton, some time in the 1990s.
I know the wings on these could be folded back for towing/ground transport, and I'm assuming that the white thing he is holding is some sort of cover, but I'm having difficulty parsing how it works.

Side view of a high-winged, single-engined light aircraft parked on grey tarmac apron, in front of a green hangar, facing to the right.
The plane is mostly white, with a yellow and red stripe running along the body, overlaid with the black registration "G-BTGL" on the rear fuselage, just behind the cockpit, as well as yellow wing tips.
There is a man standing on the other side of the plane, putting some kind of white box over the rear fuselage - the plane is obviously no where near as tall as he is.
A green corrugated metal hangar fills most of the background on the right, with a green wooden hut with a white caravan under a large metal awning on the left.

Side view of a white, high-winged, single propellor-engined light aircraft parked facing to the right in a dark hangar.
The plane has a blue stripe running along the body, and along the spats on the wheels.
The top of the engine cowling is bright yellow, extending along the bottom of the cockpit side windows.
The registration "G-FOLD" is on the side of the rear fuselage in blue.
In the background, another couple of planes can be seen looming in the darkness, including a red, high-winged light aircraft with a white cover over the cockpit and middle of the wing.

Немного о практике:
Нормы выработки при монтаже видео.
На самом деле универсального ответа нет, но есть практическая формула из кино: 1 минута мастера "собирается" 1 час. Схожий подход мы видим и при создании сюжетов на тв, там чуть другая специфика: нет звукорежиссера и отдельного графиста. Так что при монтаже тв сюжетов ты зачастую еще и тратишь время на сведение звука (а иногда и подбор аудиотрека), на титр-плашки, гео-титры и прочее.. На живом примере: прямо сейчас я сдаю еженедельную получасовую программу для телеканала. Нас два монтажера, начали мы где-то в 13 часов, а закончим завтра, в районе 9-10 утра (у нас же еще правки от редакции будут).

Важные выводы:

Нормы времени в монтаже весьма условны

Каждый проект уникален

Необходимо закладывать время на непредвиденные правки

Важно учитывать все дополнительные задачи при оценке сроков

@ReneRebe I wounder if #Steinberg reacts to #Audacity modernizing the same way they did to #AVID's continued #Enshittification of #Sibelius...

And yes, I do ironically cite @tantacrul simply because he's not just criticizing but chose to #DoBetter himself!

Granted, #competition is good and given that #Steinberg needs to convince people to use their suite over #FLOSS is good for everyone because it forces everyone to "up their game"!

By contrast, lack of #competition allows #Autodesk to basically #monopolize #engineering #Software at the expense of everyone because costly #subscriptions will be added on as cost down the line from R&D to the final product!

(And yes, I still hate myself for not having bought a perpetual Hobbyist License for #Eagle when #CadSoft was still an independent company. I should've paid that €125 back in 2008!)

@itsfoss
Introduced me to so many new and interesting things for me! 🥰

I guess I would have not discovered #VivaldiBrowser without it, and I would have probably been an #avid #gamer or a guy who thought he knew much, when he actually doesn't.
Now, I at least know how much I don't, and I'm interested in more advanced things I would have not known about in #MSWindows!
