Hello, Tom. How goes the battle of the toilet?
[15:55:00]
Dadrobit
Blarglearghe. Just got back from the recycle center. Helped the folks offload 2600lbs of scrap for the decade-annual recycle trip. They made $940. Almost makes it worth it!

I like how everyone is now just asking how Tom is doing by using plumbing disasters as a unit of measurement
[15:57:21]

"Hey Tom, how many things exploded today?"
[15:59:37]
AbstractIndigo
That's a lot of scrap
[16:03:23]
Dadrobit
1600lbs of it was stainless steel scrap. Most of that were these giant 200lb industrial ball valves that were made incorrectly and ended up donated to my pop's school shop
[16:04:01]
Dadrobit
School didn't want them and were about to pay to get rid of them. Pops took em home for free.

neat!

Sounds like a lot of work

I have to figure out what to do with this old busted toilet.
[17:38:02]
Dadrobit
It was a moderate amount of work until the dude at the recycle place remembered he had a forklift
[17:38:21]
Dadrobit
Then it got SUPER easy
[17:38:30]
Dadrobit
For the last 3 pieces....

Better late than never I suppose :ctwokinds-keith8D:

Money saving route, break the toilet into tiny pieces, dig a shallow hole and bury them there. Normal route, find a cheap waste collection company and have them pick it up. Eccentric route, put in in your garden and plant some flowers or cabbages
[17:52:54]
Twokinds
I feel like my neighbors may not appreciate the toilet flower garden approach.
[18:09:51]
ThingsAreMoving
That's why it's the eccentric route. It opens unique dialogue options and events.
But the most sensible choice would be to get someone to pick it up for you or load it up in your car and drive to your local dump to get rid of it.

Just call it art Tom. That makes it fine.
Because it's art.

what is the best kind of monitor for digital art? like what specs and stuff i guess?
[18:24:28]
Ordithus
I do photography stuff, I've got an Asus ProArt 27" that I like. Color accuracy and calibration are good things.
[18:25:16]
Dadrobit
Heard of the ProArt stuff before. Serious money there
[18:25:21]
Tundrooo
pro art is rlly expensive aaa
[18:25:31]
Ordithus
This was their least expensive
[18:25:39]
Tundrooo
idk what to look for in like specs
[18:26:11]
ThingsAreMoving
If you're not going to print your art I kinda think it doesn't matter that much. Your art is going to be viewed on all sorts of monitors and they will display it ever so slightly differently.
[18:28:55]
ThingsAreMoving
Like the display on my xp-pen and three other monitors can differ so much even after my best attempts at normalizing the colour balances it's ridiculous.
[18:29:42]
Dadrobit
SRPG is the standard for general consistent accuracy across most devices. If a monitor has 100% SRGB, then it's at least good. AdobeRGB is accurate to ranges outside of SRPG but really unless you're getting into professional work, it's beyond what most
[18:29:49]
Dadrobit
what most people actually need
[18:31:40]
Ordithus
AdobeRGB is geared more to printing, I think.
DCI-P3 or whatever is for modern movie production, I think?
OLED is questionable given the burn in risk from whatever software you're using
[18:31:56]
Dadrobit
By professional work, I mean what Things is talking about for printing, and making sure colors are literally true to lifew
[18:32:08]
Dadrobit
Yea, that ord
[18:32:44]
Dadrobit
I'm only a little into it since I took some adobe classes in college.

Professor was very cool. Had a personal pro grade printer that she used to print out our finished pieces to into us into printing processes
