    Not sure if you can see this unless you have facebook. This is my Singer's cool new Social Distancing concert hall (studio). It has five-camera HD video streaming and fully automatable multi-track audio recording capabilities, so after the main 'stream' of a Live concert, he and our audio/visual engineer can remaster it into a full HD video of the concert (for YouTube and the like)! Really cool!

    ...and this was their first Live Stream - but this was straight from the live stream - not the remastered version, which isn't published yet:

    waiting for eyes to undilate.  cant read yet.  only been a few hours.

    they replaced the lens on my eye.   i thoughy they were lasering off the cataract, didn't know it was a replacement.  i'm seeing more details.

    the screen magnifier doesnt help much with the carrara gui, can only see a lil bit of screen at a time.

    cant read the letters on my keyboard.

    was hoping to jump into rigging dragon wings.  eastern dragon and biguanna need wings smiley

    i can totally imagine the black dragon king singing take hold of the flame.
    Tears of the dragon for the Blue dragon emperor. 
    still deciding on the red and gold kings.  weired not to have a green dragon.  cant help thinking a jade dragon too cliche
    and then there the queens.

    need something cosmic sounding for the nova dragon

    needs to heal, ahould get better, yes mostly they replace the cornea, a transplant, human or pig I think too, does not reject the tissue as much as rest of body,

    Scary trivia for all of us, eyes are separate to the immune system and actually ones immune system can attack eyes and make you blind, anybody that is for no reason, saw that on one of those Reddit TTS video's.

    @Mystiarra I agree with Wendy: Let that heal! My neighbor had those replacements done. It was a complete vision upgrade for her. I hope it goes as well for you!

    Misty...I had corneal surgery, not cataract yet... they sanded my corneas down to the Bowman's  level.  https://webeye.ophth.uiowa.edu/eyeforum/video/Cornea/superficial-keratectomy.htm  And then popped temp contacts in as a bandage as raw corneas would have been excruciating.  They took those out after a week when there had been enough regeneration.

    I had to change my Kindle to black background with white dyslexic font for about two weeks until they settled.

    Next for me will be cataracts and I will get distance correcting IOL's.  Some can get a distance correcting one in eg left eye and a reading one in eg right eye and the brain works it out.  I can't get that as I do not have binocular vision.  So will go for the distance correction implants in both.  In the old days you only got mono lens, plain glass.  Then still had to wear glasses if needed.

    Don't rush things... and wear sunglasses even on cloudy days for ever. Protect those babies!! Wendy is correct.

    Dart... how cool is that!! yes

    Dartenbeck - I recall you play drums.  Have you played this "lick"?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwQLk7NcpO4

    I mentioned somewhere back there that my wife is a drummer, and pretty good in our anniversary "band" (one gig - big hit was "Summertime Blues") on the KAT pads.  This one sounds a little funkier than we played.  OK, a LOT funkier.

    I am too dumb for my out of date smart TV

    it still connects to my wifi but the firmware is years out of date, the website has changed and the apps don't work

    not used it on wifi for years

    I can get to YouTube on its browser but nothing else but the videos won't play

    I googled it and found the new site but they only sell new TV's not firmware updates

    I could use a usb to  grab a zip if they did as it has a zip on it for the obsolete one

    might need to find my model number and a sales reciept and contact their customer service but not hopefull

    it works as a TV OK and plays my videos on my harddrive or usb dongles, DVD player and records TV programs

    Wendy, when I was ill once I binge-watched her YT projects. Yes, she has a 'team' to help, but still, the imagination! 

     Last autumn an interview appeared. I haven't watched it yet, but will be.

    yes Silene

    damn you Terrain party 

    I want a greyscale of zhangjiajie national forest park but do you think any search gives results?

    I tried the simplified and traditional Chinese characters too which it all is in,

    tried looking at matching lakes and nearby landform it even has the airport labled in English

    but only shows labels not topography (that option is blank) so difficult and every capture I grabbed missed it!

    apparently the Avatar CG team helped make this game trailer too reusing and adding to footage filmed in those mountains
