Very annoying problem
So, I recorded some videos on my IPhone (IPHONE 14) Uploaded it to drive, and it looks fine. But whenever I upload it to kdenlive, the colors look degraded or something. The colors are off, but this has never happened for any other video I edited. (Using latest version), (.mov file), (version: 24.02.2) look at images above. 1st image is in kden, 2nd is on phone.

2024.05.20 04:26 ravi_k-98 Is Intel UHD 620 faster than MX130 for Topaz? And should I focus more on iGPU in my next laptop?

I have a 2019 HP Pavillion x360 14" - 8th gen i5, 16GB ram, 2GB MX130
I always thought MX130 would be much faster than integrated graphic card on my laptop. Therefore I purely used MX130 for all TOPAZ applications (mainly Photo AI, Sharpen AI, Gigapixel AI, Denoise AI) until recently, when these application started throwing out driver errors - this usually used to get resolved with restart of the application. But I tried changing the preferred graphics card and to my surprise previews were updating nearly twice as fast with Intel UHD 620 and also the photos were rendering twice as fast.
This is making me wonder if iGPU only (780M or 8core Intel arc) would be an ideal choice as my next laptop. I'm can see the new laptops are coming with 6GB of either 3050 or 4050.
I sometimes also do a bit of video editing. Nothing heavy, just color grading with multiple nodes and sometimes Fusion in Davinci Resolve.
Is spending the extra worth it for 3050 or 4050?
Also, I know I should go for 32GB ram if it's only iGPU. But is 16GB okay with 6GB 3050/4050? Because there's only those options in India.
I know higher the ram, the better, for 780M. Does the same apply to 8 core Intel arc, or does it have a preset cap on how much memory is allocated to it?
Thanks!

2024.05.20 04:25 MinimumHawk2484 DIFFICULT and IMPORTANT decision: go to my home country and meet grandparents and everyone for the first time in 5 years, or stay home and take a summer course for advanced math to prepare for future.

Im a freshmen in Algebra 1 currently, summer is coming shortly and I need to make a important decision. It has been 5 years since I saw my grandparents and my cousins in my home country, and I do miss them. But I also want to advance in math; I want to take geometry over the summer so I can take honors ALG 2 next year.
If I dont go to my country this summer I wont be able to meet my grandparents for another 4 years due to visa issues, and if I do go, Im going to miss out in advancing in math. My family in my country hasnt seen me, since I was in 2nd grade, im completely different from that now. Along with this, my dad booked a 3 day dubai trip just for me and my family and I wouldnt even go.
Ive always been picked on for being in regular math, it made me feel dumb, and it hurt me. I have many 8th grader friends that are taking geomatry or algerbra 1 currently and it hurts to hear, "Imagine being dumber than [8th grader]". I also feel sad when people are talking about their harder math course and start complimenting me for how much free time I probably have due to my easier courses. Its not all just other either, I want to self improve and better my chances for a good college.
This might be the worst or the best decision I make in life. This is extremely major and I really want to take the summer course. But the health of my grandparents isnt very good, and its possible to worry that they might live the next 4 years.
This is extremely important to me, please tell me what you think.

2024.05.20 04:23 Punished_Xavi I need help getting diagnosed

I'm 27 in NYC (idk if that matters) and I'd like to get diagnosed but I don't know where to start or even what I could potentially be wrong with me, but I know I have -something- likely autism
Context: In kindergarten I was put into special ed, my mother HATED special ed (she thought it was for "stupid" people, so she kept moving me from school to school whenever they'd try to move me to special ed, I did horribly in school cause of whatever was wrong with me, I know i went nonverbal for many months, my mother began homeschooling me in 2nd grade (and by that I mean i just sorta dropped out of school) and now I am a very low functioning adult, my mother refuses to tell me what they said I had as a kid, so idk, I assume autism or adhd? but that's just a guess.
But I'm concerned, can they even diagnose autism or adhd in an adult? I find it Sisyphean to do even the most basic of tasks, i disassociate often and uncontrollably. I can't tell what may be due to mental illness or from not gaining a work ethic or proper socialization from school like a normal person.
I know a label won't fix me but I'd really appreciate being able to potentially gain access to resources to help. Thanks for any advice

Lost cat Martha downtown Campbell- needs medication
Downtown Campbell: E Rincon Ave @ 2nd Street. Martha was last seen in the morning on Friday, May 17 in the enclosed patio where I gave her her daily medication. I was not able to find her the next morning and realized that evening that she must have escaped the enclosed patio. I still have no idea how. She is very shy. Please report any sightings. She needs her medication to treat the nose ulcer or it will continue to get worse. I’m fearful that she won’t return. I have had her since the end of April 2024. She is a cat from a feral colony that I fixed a few years ago. Brought in for treatment by her previous feeder once the nose ulcer started to get worse. I rescued her from the shelter and am under the directive of a veterinarian. I have successfully treated two other kitties with cryptococcosis from this same colony. I pray she returns. She is loved.

2024.05.20 04:11 Puzzled_Impress8929 a post in a sea of others

hello, i am suicidal. i have been suicidal for an awful long time but the thoughts stay dormant most of the time. i don’t find a reason in even posting this because the likelihood of anyone seeing this or even reading this far is low. but if you’d like to listen to my sob story feel free.
to start, i’m 16. and before you blame my hormones or just “growing up”, it isn’t. i’ve been on so many medications and trial and error tells me that the issue is within me somewhere. i’m a first born american from a long lineage of powerful people who have drive and verve in every aspect of life, i’ve seemed to miss that but i guess. ever since kindergarten i’ve been severely bullied for the way i presented myself; physical and social. i could never seem to get it right. once i began 2nd grade that was the first time i was ever conscious of my body and how much space my feelings took up and began bottling everything up. now as a sophomore in high school i’ve lost all drive and that bottle is about to shatter. i’m a druggie who can’t stop smoking weed every single night to cope with the fact that my pillows are wet with tears. i’m a burn out who went from a 3.8 to a 2.2. i’m a anorexic who lies to mom every night telling her i’m getting better. i’m a loser with no friends. i’m a fucking pariah who can’t keep a fucking talking stage going for more than a week. i could keep going but you get it i genuinely don’t know what i’m feeling, i feel like a fraud calling myself “suicidal” because i know i’ll never actually commit to it but i’m just wishing and praying that someday i’ll close my eyes and won’t wake up. i’m so fucking pathetic that sometimes i cross a high traffic road with my eyes closed or stand in front of the train tracks and hop off last minute. i just feel so helpless. every night i look at the lidocaine in my moms bathroom and wonder what would happen and how awful my mother would feel. the only reason i’m still breathing is for my mother. she the only light that keeps me going but i feel like soon that won’t be enough.
if you see this please help me i’m so lost

2024.05.20 04:08 Even-Neighborhood-35 How do you change a bratty disrespectful teen daughter behavior ?

I will try to make this as short as possible but want to also give as much context.
TLDR: looking for success stories from those who changed behavior of bratty teenage daughters became increasingly disrespectful.
My niece is driving her mom insane with her smart mouth, attitude, lying, and disobedience.
She has been getting in trouble at school lately and constantly has an attitude around the house and even more so when she is asked to do anything to help out, or the chores she has been assigned.
Recently she even tried to run away claiming that her parents hate her because “all they do is make her clean up all the time”. This is ironic because that is definitely not ALL her parents do , they go above and beyond for this girl and sacrifice a lot to make sure she has what she needs and advocates for her anytime she has an issue at school making sure to talk directly with the administration to resolve any issue she brings to them.
Also, she does not have an overwhelming amount of chores, really the normal stuff parents ask of their kids to help out (clean room, wash their dishes, fold laundry).
Lately she has been giving her mom hell with disrespectful remarks, refusal to listen first time, talking back when asked to do anything, and just walks around the house with a stick up her butt.
My sister is tired of everyone saying “well that’s just how teen girls are” because that is not a solution and also she was not that way growing up so can not relate to being disrespectful to her mom the way my niece is and that everyone is trying to normalize.
I try to play the role of a good uncle and give her lectures on why it is important to act with more compassion, respect her parents, give her mom help around the house given she works all day to provide the things she needs and other kids do not have moms as loving as my sister or a mom at all so she should appreciate her - goes in one ear and out the other and the disrespect continues.
I feel helpless and only can lecture (do not feel it is my place to issue physical discipline)
We have already taken away things she values (her tv and phone) as incentive to straighten up to gain those things back. She will act better momentarily to get them back but then like clockwork falls back into her ways and continues disrespect and getting in trouble at school (skipping class, hitting boys on camera, and lying about grades).
Anyone found a method that worked to make your daughter get her act together ?
Edit: age 13. My sister is not opposed to spankings and has done so but with her getting older does not feel it should have to resort to that or that they are effective.

my mom recently told me that my evil aunt (dad’s brother’s 2nd wife) asked one of my cousins for my pictures. and she’s literally known for doing black magic on ppl. idk if she got her hands on my pics or not. but as of recent i’ve been feeling v down and depressed. i've realized and accepted that i hate my degree. i never wanted to pursue computer science and i hate coding bcz i don't understand it.. my lab finals did not go well at all. my backbencher classmates get good grades like koi khel ho un ke liye. i wish my parents let me pursue biology instead. i’ve been missing my prayers asw bcz i’ve started feeling that allah never answers any of my duas so what’s the point? so yesterday i was sleeping and idk what the dream was but it made me v uncomfortable. when i woke up i could hear literal whispers in my ears. i wasn’t fully awake but i was conscious enough to be aware of my surroundings. the whispers were like of that snake voice from harry potter and the chamber of secrets and i instinctively recited audhubillah bfr waking up fully

2024.05.20 04:02 RandyBeamansMom Extended Episodes on Apple TV

Just checking in to see if anyone is experiencing this with me, or perhaps knows something about it to clue me in.
I own almost every season of Frasier on Apple TV, and watch daily.
But lately — all these new lines and jokes I’ve never heard before! It freaked me out at first and felt like misremembering, but I am 100% confident now that my episodes have been extended from perhaps the network versions to the full length or extended editions?
————————————
The Office launched an entire second program and called them Superfan Episodes so they could advertise heavily. So I’m not at all surprised if this is in concert with New Frasier or something.
With Friends, I had to buy both a special medium and a player to watch it on in order to get the extended editions, so this feels honestly like I won the lottery! ℎaℎa

2024.05.20 03:53 gecchi200 I’m realizing that my mom might not love me.(no shocker)

(DO NOT REPOST PLEASE)
Hi all, I’m new here(lurker. This’ll probably be my only vent)
I(16nb) take meds for my severe depression. This is relevant to the story. A quick trigger warning for suicidal thoughts and ideologies
I have been suicidal since I was in the 2nd grade but kept it a secret from my family until roughly last November when it was forced out of me. My mom had threatened to take my meds away because she said they ‘weren’t working’ and this caused me to tell her that I was suicidal without them. I remember her texting me ‘now I know I can’t trust you’. My own mother saying she can’t trust me while I was at my lowest point because of the stress of this school year.
She ended up dragging me downstairs with my siblings for a long talk on how we don’t tell her things. She told us that I kept secrets from her because I didn’t think she was ‘strong enough’ to take it. That’s not the case at all. I kept it a secret because I don’t like people worrying about me period.
After that long talk, she started to ignore me for three weeks straight. I would say good morning and try to strike up a conversation and she would just not say anything to me.
one day, I forgot to take my meds once and was scared to go in her room to get them because she was basically a ticking time bomb ready to blow. The next day while I was getting dressed for school, she opened my door without knocking and it scared the life out of me.
I awkwardly laughed and was like ‘woah you scared me’ but she didn’t say anything. She looked at me with a glare and gave me my meds. “If they’re so important to you, I’d think you wouldn’t forget them. Fine. Whatever I guess.”
After that, she slammed the door and went back downstairs. Of course I was scared for two reasons now. The fact that she woke up on the wrong side of the bed + she was mad at me wasn’t good. On the way out the car, she got mad at me for not bringing a mask with me to school and made me go back inside. I came out with only one and both my parents yelled at me for it, basically calling me dumb.
I had finally began to break down quickly in tears but my mom wasn’t having it. She snapped at me and asked why I was crying and I lied. “Oh it’s nothing. Don’t worry.” My mom immediately cuts me off and goes on a rant about why she hates how me and my siblings never tell her anything and how can she expect to help me if I wont tell her things.
That’s the thing though. I did reach out and tell her but she responded like this. I genuinely wanted to kill myself after this event happened.
I still want to kill myself to this day but it hurts me that my own mother probably wouldn’t care and would make it about her somehow.
I’m sorry if the grammar is a bit off on this post. I was crying the entire time of me writing this because it was such a painful memory to remember.
Thank you all for reading this story and listening to an angsty teenager’s rant about living in a emotionally tiring home.
Now I’ll play RE8: village and pretend Ethan Winters is my dad

2024.05.20 03:35 Throwaway286449294 What are some good well paying (6 figure) career options?

I (18F) just graduated from high school with almost an associates degree? Lol I have taken pretty much all of the basic community college classes for the past two years and just graduated valedictorian of my class, but i have no clue what i want to do. I have been set on medical school all my life, but i hit a roadblock after trying shrooms one time and lost all motivation honestly. I have always been a star student academic-wise, but i know grades arent even half the battle. I’ve always been “interested” in healthcare, but i was once asked why i truly wanted to pursue it by an 83 year old finance bro predator at the gym who proposed to me, and i didnt have an answer. Right now, im about to go to a state school and my declared major is mechanical engineering, but i thought it would be a good idea to go over all my options. I do not mind stress or long hours or tedious work. Right now, i believe i thrive in stressful environments, but i feel as though i lack the drive and empathy it takes for medical school.
I also enjoy physics and calculus a lot, and i am really good at studying.
This isnt pertinent info really, but i have two immigrant parents, and they have always told me that medical school was the only right option growing up and that engineering wasnt a stable career-path which has affected my mindset over the years. I never thought about whether i would enjoy working the rest of my life in healthcare until recently and only then have i started considering other paths.
Money isnt the only factor, but i would say its one of the most important ones for me.

2024.05.20 03:35 CaptOle Gaijin Has a Poor Understanding of Statistics Pt 2 -- Proposed Solution

You may be familiar with my prior effort post describing the problem that Gaijin has in its analysis of statistics. You can find that post here for reference.
TL:DR for that post: Gaijin’s win rate-based balancing system creates a positive feedback loop for bad vehicles that generally pushes away bad players leaving only good players playing them, pushing them further up in BR. Same thing happens for especially good vehicles being played much more by worse players keeping the win rate suppressed, not because of the vehicle being bad but by a “skill issue” for lack of a better term.
Anyways, many people brought up good points and a lot of wisdom and personal experience that got me thinking of solutions. I am a PhD student in economic policy, so statistics is a daily activity for me. I asked my colleagues to look over a proposal to see if it is statistically robust, and this is the consensus balancing algorithm that would be better than what Gaijin currently uses. I won’t be explaining multi-linear regressions like I did statistical bias in the last post, but if you want a brief overview of what they are and how they work, please refer to these 2 videos:
Linear Regression (SLR)-- watch the first 7 or so minutes of this one
Multiple Linear Regression (MLR)-- this video is only 5 minutes so watch the full thing
Think of these videos as your daily brain nourishment for understanding statistics not just in War Thunder, but everywhere in the world.
When creating our MLR, we want to think of a model that answers a question about data that we have. In our case, we are going to be looking at causal inference. A popular example would be, what health factors of an individual would determine the risk of them having lung cancer. Relevant information for that regression would be a person’s age, history of smoking, diet, income, parent/family history, etc. By taking a massive dataset with all of this information, say of 10,000, we can fit a regression that estimates an individual’s chance of getting cancer by using data from an existing group. A sample model for lung cancer may look something like this:
Chance of getting Lung Cancer = B0 +B1X1+B2X2+B3X3+B4X4+B5X5
Where based on the dataset:
B0= Base Chance of cancer
B1= Effect of Smoking where X1 is a binary variable (0 or 1) whether a person has smoked regularly at any point of their life
B2= Effect of Family History where X2 is a binary variable (0 or 1) if a person’s family has a history of lung cancer
B3= Effect of Age where X3 is a person’s age in years
B4= Effect of Income where X4 is a person’s income
B5= Effect of Diet where X5 is a value of 0 to 100 of a person’s diet health, 0 being a perfect diet and 100 being horrible, ranked by an expert.
With this information, we can take any individual, person i, plug in their relevant data, and get the risk they individually would get lung cancer based on the body of data we used to create the regression. If we have an individual that is 60 years old, who has smoked, does not have a family history of cancer, has a pretty good diet (ranked 25/100), and has an income of $50,000.
We can get this person’s expected chance of getting lung cancer in the following equation:
B0 +B1(1)+B2(0)+B3(60)+B4(50,000)+B5(25).
Any Bx is what is known as the marginal change in expected outcome based on a 1 unit change of and Xx. Now, if we had actual values for Bx for every term, we would simply plug them in, and solve the equation given the individual’s recorded data. The outcome would give an expected chance of cancer for that individual. So, with that explanation out of the way, back to War Thunder.
To create an MLR model, we will have to identify what value we want to predict, and what kinds of data we will use to predict it. Since Gaijin uses win rate as their primary statistic for balancing, we will use that as the value we want to predict. To create a model that will be used as a baseline to compare all other subgroups to, we will assume we are using every single vehicle’s statistics for the past 6 months entered individually into a dataset to get a universal model for predicting win rate per game mode. This specific model will be for Ground RB. The value we are predicting is win rate, and the values we will be using to predict win rate are:
X1=K/D
X2=Point Captures
X3=Kill Assists
X4=Spotting Assists
X5=Shots absorbed and bounced
X6=Time per life
So a model would like like this:
Win Rate = B0 +B1X1+B2X2+B3X3+B4X4+B5X5+B6X6
With each of the B’s being the marginal change in expected win rate based on a unit change in any of the associated X’s.
Once we run the regression, we will get values for all the B’s giving us the expected effect each of these statistics has on win rate. We don’t know what this data is, so we don’t know what is statistically significant or not to keep in the model, so any one of these statistics could be insignificant, or surprisingly significant. Only Gaijin knows.
So, what do we do when we have the general model for win rate? We can correct for the bias encountered in the previous post by just looking at win rate by creating a player skill-adjusted win rate. Here’s what I mean:
What we will do is take the average of every account’s player statistics for the relevant game mode, in this case, ground RB, and input those values as X’s. This will output a skill-adjusted expected win rate. In other words, inputting the recent account statistical averages for the players playing a vehicle will output an expected skill-adjusted win rate for a vehicle. If a vehicle is below this expected skill-adjusted win rate, it should be a candidate to move down in BR, while if it is above, then it could be moved up in BR.
Imagine Russian premium 10.0 with the 2S38, TURMS, and T80UD. This is generally considered a very powerful lineup but played by generally worse-than-average players. In the current system, Gaijin will try to balance these vehicles to get to a 50% win rate regardless of the population that plays these vehicles, leaving them arguably under-tiered due to the skill level of the players. In the new system, all of the players who play these vehicles will have their past 6 months of player data averaged and plugged into the generalized win rate model to give an estimation of what that win rate SHOULD be based on the average skill level of the players. This could give us an expected win rate of 45% or maybe even 40%, but either way, it will probably be lower than the standard 50% that Gaijin balances their game around.
In cases with bad vehicles being played by particularly good players, they may still be seeing above a 50% win rate even though they’re overtiered. By decreasing their battle rating, it may DECREASE their win rate due to the draw of worse players to these now lower BR vehicles. This should change the population composition of a vehicle and combat the feedback loop problems described in the previous post.
If Gaijin is ever brave enough to provide anonymized player statistics and vehicle statistics, we can see the populations that play each vehicle and balance them around the power of the vehicle, not the prowess of the player. This, in my opinion, is a much better system than the current “balance all win rates at 50%”.
If you have any questions or want further explanation, let me know and I’d be happy to make an edit to this post to explain. I am also open to feedback on this rough model and method of balancing.
PS: The numbers in the models are supposed to be indexing and subscripted, which didn't paste over correctly from the word doc.

2024.05.20 03:32 Glad-Telephone-9952 Relocating to AAC

We are relocating to AAC from the west coast and planning to purchase a house in the next few months. Looking at SP, Arnold, Edgewater and trying to identify family friendly communities, good schools and a safe environment for our kids (2nd and 4th grade). We would like to have access to water (waterfront not required), and a welcoming and diverse community. Budget is up to 1M$, and commute to either DC or Baltimore once or twice a week. we have been reading about racism , bullying, and mental health issues at high schools. Any thoughts and recommendations on family friendly communities?

2024.05.20 03:28 myplantsam Daily ADHD tips - tech edition

Here are some things that worked for me. I was wondering if anyone can add some more?
Apple Watch - setting multiple timers - finding my phone - calendar reminders 10 mins before the event - asking for quick facts
Google Home - automations for gentle reminders like - bedtime, the lights dim slowly - wake up time, the lights turn on slowly - getting ready, I get 10-15 min increment reminders of the time to stay on track
Calendar App: - birthdays, I’ve also added 2 week advance reminders for those important to me - I use my calendar for literally everything. Including reminders of when to eat.
Notion: - I use this to catalog everything else like - my never ending brain dumps. I catalog it to different areas of my life - I also catalog calls, course notes, my fav quotes and bits of info I love instead of having multiple tabs open - family directory - reoccurring tasks list - cataloging all my research and ideas
How else have you used tech to assist your daily life?

2024.05.20 03:25 Theshadyrednexk Alliance donations cap?

So I’m definitely not the only one that questions this but I haven’t seemed to find anyone else mentioning this in this reddit.
Why is there a cap on alliance donations and why is it not consistant? 4/7 days I can donate 50m, 2 days 200m, and 1 day 100m. I tried going like 2 weeks of only 50 million to see if it would even out but it seems pretty persistent on being abnormal. Is this a normal thing or is there anything I can do to at-least get it to 100 daily.
Edit: from 30m daily revenue to 180m, nothing has changed. The donations seem to be stuck at that unevenness since I created the alliance and have since max donated every day since.
