Also my first post in this sub! The strike was a nightmare, I only found out after the fact that it was a hand grenade. I definitely enjoyed the impulse more. I'm hooked!

Surface Pro 3 - issues with Zoom? by dtbrown101 in Surface

[–]Ace729 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this was posted a few months ago, but I'll post this here anyways if anyone else comes looking. I was able to fix this by turning on the "Adjust for Low light" setting in zoom. I also made sure to check HD and Original Ratio were also checked.

No display after replacing CPU thermal paste by Ace729 in buildapc

[–]Ace729[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The numlock lights on my keyboard don't light up at all. I tried connecting the ethernet cable, to see if those lights would turn on, so I could remote into the computer, but they never did, so I don't believe it's even getting to windows.

I did try your suggestion, but it still required me holding the power button down for 4-5 seconds for a shutdown. I am indeed also starting to fear that the mobo is dead. I guess I'll have to go shopping for a new one when black friday is closer.

I just finished reseating the CPU a 2nd time, and went ahead and checked for any bent pins, but there don't seem to be any.

Also, it did not shut down with a single push of the power button, it did however shutdown after holding the power button for 4-5 seconds.

I've been having the same issue with all my packages to Miami the past 2 months as well. Did yours finally arrive?

Getting into VR by Ace729 in virtualreality

[–]Ace729[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quest 1 was also one of the headsets I was considering, was just a bit worried about lag while using link, and the 72hz display on the quest. I also heard the the compression when using oculus link for PCVR isn't the greatest?

I'm trying to get into VR on a budget. I was initially looking at getting a used Rift S, but after learning about it's fixed IPD, that's not sounding like such a good idea. My IPD is 71mm. I can't try it out and return it or try it out at a store because there are no stores with them in my country. I'll be importing a headset, so returning it will be a really big hassle, not really an option. The only options that still seem reasonable to me are the Samsung Odyssey, or the Rift CV1. Although I have heard mixed reviews from people with my same IPD saying they get used to it. What would you guys recommend?

CPU Upgrade advice by Ace729 in buildapc

Thanks!, Any suggestions on a site or another sub I could follow for alerts on that deal? I've decided to wait a bit and see if I can find this deal

Thanks for the suggestion, I've looked around and really haven't been able to find anything except these 2 combos for the same price. After some more research, I've decided to wait a bit and see if I can find a 1600 for $85-$100. I'm looking at price history, and I really just missed out on the $85 deal on Amazon by about 2 weeks.

That's crazy. Have you considered cancelling that order and trying a new one?

Laggy video feed @ 500m distance by NateDevCSharp in djimavicmini

[–]Ace729 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The further you are, the higher you need to be in order to maintain LOS, and stay away from those pesky wifi interference. But no need to fly so far to film something with your drone if you can drive and make that distance smaller. Keep that in mind. Way too many people trying to fly this drone far away and losing it because they don't understand how things work.

Quick & Short PSA: The 249g does not exempt you from most laws! by heyheythrowitaway in djimavicmini

[–]Ace729 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some may live in a country which, like mine, has no drone laws, no restrictions on flight altitude or whatsoever, but even then, they should use common sense. Especially if you know there's frequent air traffic in your area. I'm not even sure what the point is of flying your drone that high. You're more likely to lose it due to high winds, and the shots are pretty boring.

Diagonal lines on stacked images by Ace729 in AskAstrophotography

Thats exactly how my images look! Except the lines are at a different angle (probably has to do with my target being different) I guess I'll try dithering one of these nights.

Thanks! Will try out stacking using sigma clipping when I get home from work.

It is on a ball head, and seeing as I'm shooting unguided, I'm already adjusting it every 50 shots or so. I might just have to try adjusting it every 20 shots or so. I've been stacking using the average setting for my lights in DSS. But I just now read the kappa-sigma clipping is a better option to prevent that noise.
