reddig33, to star_wars in The Bad Batch | The Final Season Official Trailer | Disney+

I always wonder if these current three dimensional CGI animated series are cheaper to produce than live action or traditional animation.

marcos,

You meant if the 3D GCI where only the voice and movements of the people are used is cheaper than the 3D CGI where the people’s appearance is used too?

I have no idea, but the difference can’t be very big.

EndlessApollo,

3D animation is definitely a lot easier/cheaper than 2D, and probably a lot cheaper than live action. Making a good looking 3D character is harder than drawing a frame in a cartoon, but once you have it, animation is much easier, since you don’t have to make a new model for each frame. I assume it’s also easier to make effects for 3D than live action, since they’re stylized and don’t have to look lifelike, which is the goal of most CGI in live action media

Mandalorian was about $15 million per episode in season 1.

Clone Wars was about $1 million per episode.

Certainly cheaper to make cartoons than live action, but not exactly shoestring.

It’s difficult for me to find a good price analog to a 2D cartoon made recently that has a similar amount of action, and doesn’t have the budget weirdly skewed by licensing.

I would guess that to make a traditional animation as detailed, full of motion even in backgrounds, and full of constant action scenes it would probably be more expensive and time consuming compared to 3D.

Dang, I was hoping to adventure with this group a bit longer.

Curious to see where Omega ends up.

And of course, Ventress.

I dislike apple for a lot of reasons, but the Vision Pro is bringing some pretty advanced new tech to the table.

This isn’t Apple’s typical MO where they stick meh hardware into a pretty looking case and jack up the prices.

This sort of tech has to start somewhere, and that’s always at a high price point.

hypoproteinosis96,

Honestly, I don’t know why Apple has such a bad rap.

pearsaltchocolatebar,

Because they charge premium prices for meh hardware.

I am looking to purchase a product :(. I only have about four thousand dollars.

Could you please help me figure out what kind of AR glasses I should buy?

Same latency

WbrJr,

Seems pretty unexcited and rather expected. Doesn’t it?

I was initially wondering what a random jungle (I don’t know the specific subgenre) track had to do with Star Trek, until I realised the main sample (and song title) was Spock from Amok Time, before his “wedding fight”.

TheGrandNagus, to linux in Gaming Latency on Linux: Gnome vs KDE Plasma

TL;DR: they’re pretty much exactly the same

Headline is kind of bait but the testing and info in the video is still worth the watch imo

Upvoted solely on the basis of having a video thumbnail that isn’t cancer.

fl42v, to linux in This guy has a good take on linux companies, agree or disagree?

Meh, idk tf he says he understands. Like “make [ported adobe CC] popos-exclusive”: sure, big brain, how’s that supposed to work, exactly? Or “there are 3 desktops ppl GAF about”: riiiight, me along with other wm users aren’t ppl anymore, apparently.

The whole video pretty much boils down to “I don’t need X, hence nobody [«meaning the vast majority of ppl»] needs x”. By the same logic, the “vast majority” doesn’t need CC either, it’s mostly necessary for professional designers, etc 🤷

I mean it’s probably possible to choose the windows route and go “we make one steaming pile of garbage that kinda works everyone but perfectly - for nobody”, yet linux distros so far have been pro-choice and pro-customization. You want “just works”? Sure, go with X, Y, and Z distros. Wanna something specifically tailored for your workflow? You may start with the same and replace/modify stuff, but also I, J, and K are a great base to build your future setup from the ground up and avoid banging your head against the wall while figuring out what drugs their devs were on. And the same goes for DEs/WMs: gnome is, gnome also works, yet if you want to change it significantly, you’ll either have to mess with extensions or maintain a fork of a huge codebase you don’t fully understand and most of which you don’t exactly need. So, building from scratch may just be an easier solution.

Technically, you can also PR, yet it can easily be rejected, and then you’re back to forks.
