Facebook: Goodbye

It is time to delete Facebook. I have many reasons for this decision. Some would sound fanatical, some are just reasonable and related to recent news. The reality is that Facebook is not adding anything to my life, and the cost of my personal data for this service is no longer worth the value. For … Continue reading Facebook: Goodbye

Net Neutrality: SB 822

I think that most of us can agree that our government has hit an all time low. Our kids have no interest in a system that isn't working.

Remote VO Sessions with ipDTL

We had a request from a client that wanted to be part of a VO session but didn't want to travel to the session. He lives in New York, and we are in Studio City, so that makes sense. How the heck do we send video and audio from a TV show, add two VO … Continue reading Remote VO Sessions with ipDTL

Compute Devices should not have “Pro” in their name

This is one of those little things that bugs me. It shouldn't, but it does, and it is something that I have burned way too many calories on. Computers and Devices should not have Pro in their name! I would normally look the other way on this. Figure it is marketing for a company, so … Continue reading Compute Devices should not have “Pro” in their name
