This app stops Javascript from running on pages, and I use it to block sites that make you turn off content blockers before you can view the site.
I know sites need revenue, but random ads only annoy me, and some of that is that I edit commercials, so I know the tricks and they just annoy me! So i block them and making me turn off my content blockers annoys me even more!
This takes a little effort and a little work, but it does what it says (and some pages break when you stop the scripts), and I love it.
It is so true, every editor should know After Effects. Honestly I mostly don’t even consider doing any graphics in my NLE and just jump into after effects, but I have also been using it for well over 20 years now, and am always learning something new. So spend sone time and learn something new.
I took longer than I thought I would off, so sorry about that.
My mon was here, which was awesome! We watched allot of movies and went to the Academy Museum.
The Museum is great, though like the redone Peterson, it feels like they wasted a bunch of space, as though architecture was more important than the museum itself And the second floor is confusing to navigate (we kept having to loop back). The John Waters exhibit was fantastic and so in depth, and the science fiction room is just unbelievable, though i wish it was an entire floor!

Anyway had a great holiday, and hope you all did too.
As always from Motion Array it is in depth and really a good tutorial, so check it out.
This is for Chroma Keying with the color page, which is very powerful. Of course I have been going further with the Fusion page (necessary for some of the keying i am doing for my next short), but that is another step ahead.
Since moving to my new Mac Studio I have had one annoying problem. I run a 2 monitor setup and my Apple silicon mac will not sleep or put it display to sleep if the computer is running something I told it to do. For me that would be batch video conversions or the like which I set to run overnight. On my intel mac, I could set the render and then put my mac to sleep and the monitors would at least turn off, but on my Apple Silicon Mac, it won’t sleep, put on the screen saver, or turn off the displays while the render is going, and since my Mac is in my house that means it is bright and I can see the light from my bedroom. So to let me sleep I turn the monitors off, but when I do this everything from both monitors gets scattered all over my first display and nothing is on my second display, and I have to re-arange my windows.
I tried googling this and tried a few free options off github, but nothing worke, so I tried Display Maid from Funk-iSoft.
It is a very simple app that adds an item to your menu bar, though it doesn’t automatically launch on it’s own (I added it to login items) and you can save a state then turn off your monitors and restore when you turn them back on.
Though the restore on an external display is added or removed doesn’t seem to work for me, but the menu does.
You save all Window Positions and then restore all window positions. it is not elegant, but it works. I just Apple would remember where my damn windows were!
This is completely insane! While it is cool to have a new high tech Super 8 Camera, for it to cost $5495 is literally nuts! You can get a fully rigged out blackmagic camera for that!
