Former secretary of public security in Mexico's Sinaloa state faces US court

The former secretary of public security for Mexico’s Sinaloa state has appeared in a U.S. court days after his arrest in Arizona on charges he and other officials took bribes to help the Sinaloa Cartel smuggle vast quantities of drugs into the U.S. Gerardo Mérida Sánchez, 66, was not required to enter a plea during his initial appearance on Friday in federal court in Manhattan. He was ordered jailed but could request bail at a later date. He is due back in court on June 1. A message seeking comment was left for his lawyer.

tis a shame. Given the current situation I think it's even more vital to have the virtual option. Wonder if a significant drop in attendance will neglect a lot of the savings. Hopefully they're recording the sessions, like Viewconference? I would pay money to watch those afterwards. But the lack of communication is not a good look. Anyway at least looking forward to whatever DigiPro releases on the DL later.

Guess I'll see you all in Vancouver 2028!

"Everyone knows we use computers to do computer graphics but the dirty secret of all this is 'there's so much we do by hand.'"

Posting an image of a 35mm print from a film as “ground truth” for color and tone is almost always ridiculous. Even brand new release prints vary from print to print, and prints deteriorate over time in different ways for various reasons. Plus the variables that exist when scanning a print.
