oops.
2002-10-26 01:19:13
After loading an obscenely large number of 9+ GB Quicktime files into Cinelerra, the kernel paniced.

Thankfully, everything else is still running.
This is, however, the first time I've ever seen Cinelerra cause a kernel oops.
Oh well. Loaded the latest backup that contained all of those files, and now Cinelerra is processing them all like nothing happened.
Process tables show that it's business as usual -- no zombied processes or huge footprints for dead processes anywhere. Memory is good: 432/640 MB physical RAM free, 2.01 GB swap-space free.
Yay.
If there was a point to this journal entry, I think I lost it at the second word. -

Next video will feature the amazing quality afforded to me by use of (1) 24-bit audio and (2) uncompressed footage.
My hard drive is not appreciating it. I'm encoding Chapter 3 of this DVD (I can't stand working directly from VOB -- it's SO SLOW), and I doubt that my 140GB of storage will be able to hold it all.
Whee. Go team storage subsystem abuse. -

Just bought a legal copy of Microsoft Visual Studio .NET for $12.50.
I love academic discounts.
Time to see if Microsoft has fixed the rather annoying template issues with their C++ compiler. Word of mouth hasn't been encouraging, but hey, there's always the chance that they'll have woken up to the fact that C# WILL NOT RULE THE WORLD, and that advanced C++ is here to stay... -

It's amazing what an extra 1.8 gigabytes of swap space will do for your productivity. I got 800 frames filled in, 550 of which only somewhat suck.
1,500 frames to go...
And somebody needs to take a sniper rifle to the room down the hall from me. The guys in there are the loudest things this side of a 400W THX-approved five-speaker system. -

02/10/13 04:44:23 * trythil beats Dartollen with std::beatdown_stick
02/10/13 04:44:57 <Dartollen> lol
02/10/13 04:45:02 <Dartollen> what is that...?
02/10/13 04:45:18 <trythil> a new addition to the C++ standard library
02/10/13 04:45:26 <trythil> along with std::trout and std::disease
02/10/13 04:45:39 <Dartollen> lol
02/10/13 04:45:44 <trythil> actually, std::disease can be broken down into several categories
02/10/13 04:45:59 <AtomEdge> #include <stdabuse.h>
02/10/13 04:45:59 <Dartollen> i think my genetically modified trout could handle it
02/10/13 04:46:05 <trythil> std::gonarrhea, std::syphilus, std::herpes

...and you think they're funny.
