good thing you have two heads now to get through them twice as fast!

I almost went Aruba but found a lot of cheap Ruckus models on eBay that were compatible to be flashed with the “Unleashed” (no cloud, no license fee) controller firmware.

Yeah quite prosumer. An okayish data plane with a struggling control plane, I find. Been super happy with opnsense, Mikrotik’s Marvell chip switches, and ruckus APs lately. IGMP/MLD snooping, DSCP flagging, PTPv2 boundaries, 802.11k roaming, and IPv6 all work properly, imagine that!

It’s human nature to yearn for winning and losing strategies to be clear, but of course life is rarely that simple.

The sun shining through trees is so beautiful to me and I have to stop myself from taking photos of it every time ad nauseam.

That, and the challenges of building LUTs that handle both full/partial conversion when going from log to PQ, as well as swapping BT.709/BT.2020 matrix coefficients. All things that happen automatically in file based workflows that become easy to miss in live setups.

It was nice to do HDR live streaming just to prove to myself I could do it, though I wish I had better discipline on lighting and set design to make my own scenes worth while for it. At least it helped me learn a lot about using FFmpeg and GStreamer with genlocked sources in the process.

Oh yes, though my current team would have still been on Avid at that time :p

Glad Adobe are still working on this. Their recent switch to ACEScct in Premiere was nice, but the controls & tooling still wasn't there when my editing team at work tested it. It's tough for editorial departments to deal with scene-referred workflows, but will become increasingly common.

I’m excited we’re past 50% now, as hopefully that becomes social leverage to influence more mass adoption.

I understand you can chart the heck out of this process to build an IDT LUT that would neutralize both the scanner illuminant and even parts of the film stock, but I wonder how far is best to take that process especially for an enthusiast photographer friend. :p

Paradox @ctcwired.paradoxwolf.info · 15/04/2026

Since you presumably want some colorimetric correction for the scanner's behavior (and it's illuminant), but sticking to linear transforms so as to not ruin the (desirable?) non-linearities of the film itself? There's a reason I've avoided getting a film hobby lol

I understand "print emulation" would be the tradition for the end of that picture formation pipeline, but still unclear what working space the DI is effectively using. Film native? Scanner native? Print native? Where is that 3x3 matrix in the pipe?

Paradox @ctcwired.paradoxwolf.info · 15/04/2026

Friend asking me about film negative scanning has me questioning where the conversion to a colorimetric human observer takes place in DI? For digital sensors it's a linear transform to satisfy Luther Condition, but film is quite non-linear & the scanner's spectral behavior is an additional layer. 🤔

I debate making another bsky account mainly for higher volume reposting of art & lustful/sexual images. I'd feel bad compartmentalizing, but it would mainly be for density than anything else, considering my increasing anxiety over treating my online profiles as slower and more tasteful portfolios.

While I'm not making it to NAB this year, I tremendously enjoyed going last year. It's something I had wanted to do since I was a child, and certainly a joyful part of my career I'll never forget. <3

I've had fun experimenting with nicer picture formation algorithms (like OpenDRT), but it's been over a year since I've caught up on editing / publishing any of my photography. Perhaps I can fix that soonish.
