Re: OT - USB 3.0 PITA

2015-07-29 Thread Mark C
Thanks - I have been giving that serious consideration since I have an 
excellent pair of tin snips on hand already.  But am not sure it would 
work. I would not only have to cut out enough for the USB plug to fit 
into the socket, but also would need to cut out enough for any plastic 
base around the plug and also accommodate the metal that I would have 
bend back from the expanded hole. I'm not sure it would be feasible - I 
think grinding would be needed if I decided to go with enlarging the 
slot, but even then I think it would encroach too much on the 
neighboring slots (and the video card has to be next to it since that is 
where the only PCIe x2 slot is.)  I really think the solution lies in 
getting a card with ports orientated in the right way.

Once the PCI card is inserted apply some duck tape from the inside to
restore airflow conditions like before.

Card #2 - Tenex with NEC chipset. Seems to work fine! Detected by Windows,
driver is installed, Windows notifies me of the devices that could perform
faster... but is physically incompatible with my case (see the picture)

Card #3 -  TomTop card with same chipset as the card above but with the
ports oriented in the other direction. Does not work when SATA power is
connected - not detected by Windows. *Is* detected by Windows when power is
NOT connected but devices do not work when plugged in. Probably needs power!
I'm requesting a replacement and if that does not work... to hell with it!

Mark C wrote:

Thanks, Larry - I am contemplating this. The other cards have the
connectors turned 90 degrees. The card that had the connectors that were
blocked by the case could be modified to fit in a low profile case - so
they rotated the connectors to decrease the footprint. I never
considered that they would not fit in my case and after purchasing the
card revisited the listing on Amazon and did not see any note about
needing a special case for the card. I do not have a grinder and I am
not sure that the cut and bend approach will work - so I think I need a
card with the slots in the right orientation.


You could pick up a file, or even a hacksaw, for a few dollars. Or, if 
you know anybody that plays with cars, they would have the requisite tools.


I don't suppose the same company has another version of the card with 
the usb slots rotated.

You wouldn't think so to look at him, but he is the Trojan prince Tithonos, one 
of the many handsome young lovers of Eos, goddess of the dawn. When she asked 
Zeus to give him eternal life she forgot to ask for eternal youth, so Tithonos 
has aged and shrivelled, wrinkled and shrunk, and that sound you hear is his 
wizened voice, longing for death.

decided to keep the experiment.

I normally would have picked one up at the Tiger Direct store, but they
closed that too. That's why I recommend "your local computer geek shop".

Plus, if it's a *real* computer geek shop & they don't have it in stock,
they can make one for you.

Thanks, Igor. I looked at your recommendation but it has a molex power
socket and I only have sata power plugs free in the case - I don't even
see any molex cables in there at all. I picked the first card because of
the sata power port, Inateck's good reputation, and also because it
included a sata power cord extension (which I found was not necessary.)
After that I just looked for NEC chipset and sata power socket, and
eventually also for ports in the needed orientation - those three
factors combined really limit available choices Maybe I'll try the
transcend card and get a sata to molex adapter (I was trying to keep
things simple but obviously have not been successful on that front.)

Hi Mark,

 I remember that I researched when I was buying, and Transcend card

even on WinXP:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/696114-REG/Transcend_TS_PDU3_2_Port_USB_3_

As far as I remember it has NEC/Renesas chipset.
(Although I see now somebody's comment complaining about drivers for

Probably needs power! I'm requesting a replacement and if that does

"duct tape" not "duck tape".  It was originally invented for use on air

Actually it's DUKW pronounced and often spelled "Duck" tape, duct tape
is a different animal.  The original "Duck" tape was used to water proof
items, such as ammunition boxes that were loaded on to DUKWs for
transport over beaches during WWII.  It predates Duct tape. (used in
HVAC installations). which is heat proof, but not necessarily
waterproof, by a good number of years.

Re: PESO - Cicada

2015-07-29 Thread Mark C
Thanks. I've been wondering about shutter activations. This shot is 232 
activations but the whole session with the cicada was 328 exposures. 
Setting things up, starting on stacks that don't work out, etc add even 
more.  I checked today and found that the camera is just over 52,000 
shutter actuations. Digging through files I was able to get a baseline 
from December 19, 2014 and that was just over 17,000 actuations.


I hope that the shutter is indeed as robust as claimed!

I don't think death is the answer. Perhaps more wine. Beer would be my choice, 
but I'm Canadian...

Re: PESO ~ Shadow play

I struggle with these photos because I feel uncomfortable with their 
sexualization and objectification of the subject.

But I can't deny their technical and artistic brilliance. 

In the end I have to admit that it's quite beautiful, which causes more inner 
conflict because the feminist-ally in me tells me I should feel shame.

What's a lefty to do?

Nice shot!

Cheers,

frank

Cute little critters. 

I struggle with these photos because of the objectification and specieist 
portrayal - oh wait, I'm allowed to like this one. 

Fun shots!

A wonderful picture. It really dynamically communicates the power of the

OT: (or maybe not) Orphan Works ... again

2015-07-29 Thread John

Looks like the subject has come around again.

http://petapixel.com/2015/07/21/orphan-works-copyright-law-being-considered-again-in-the-us/

The document is 234 pages & I haven't been able to wade through all of 
it yet, but I understand that one objectionable feature is the proposed 
new copyright law will eliminate the presumption "It's copyrighted when 
you create it". It won't be copyrighted unless it's actually registered.


The Copyright Office will go out of the business of registering 
copyrights & you'll have to register your work (including meta-data) 
with two new commercial repositories/aggregators, paying whatever fees 
they charge. "Register ... with two" means you have to register it twice.


This apparently includes previously copyrighted/registered works.

It again introduces limitations on damages for infringements where the 
infringer has made a "good faith diligent search" ... whatever THAT 
means ... to find the copyright owner and appears to place the burden on 
the copyright owner to prove that the infringer did NOT act in good 
faith or apply due diligence.


"Eligible nonprofit educational institutions, museums, libraries, 
archives, or public broadcasters" would be exempt from paying damages if 
they used the infringed work for "noncommercial educational, religious, 
or charitable purposes."


The proposed law also drastically alters existing law with regard to 
"derivative work".
