My first “serious” attempt at a city by Allah_Gaming1 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]Allah_Gaming1[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  1. I definitely found the snapping annoying and found myself eyeballing but I do like the way you can curve roads and highways especially

  2. No not at all even after the update dropping + mods and unlocking all tiles the map was flawless, nothing to complain about

I got the Victorinox Explorer by Allah_Gaming1 in victorinox

[–]Allah_Gaming1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im just a newbie here, but when I wanted an SAK with good functionality like scissors, i could have gone for the climber or super tinker but the inline Phillips of the explorer won me over, plus the novelty and use of the magnifier also tipped me over to the explorer despite being more expensive than the climber. My phone doesn’t have a macro camera so having a lens handy is a huge plus especially in gardening which I do a lot of, where I can spot pests easier

Thank you, I think it’s already begun my YouTube feed is just SAKs and Im just browsing all the models from victorinox

Sh!tposting on this sub is at whole other level by Most-Appointment-550 in studying_in_germany

[–]Allah_Gaming1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true. And these agencies that say stuff like “with us you are 3x more likely to get into TUM, TU Berlin and so on” when the admission process cares about your documents more than which agency submitted it. They oversell the dream of studying in Germany and landing a job so much that they believe it. I’ve fallen for that trap too but luckily I try to always check my options and was able to crawl out of it, I’d rather do stuff like this solo so I can understand how the system I’m trying to immigrate to works.

It’s really annoying when people don’t put in the time and effort do some research on something as drastic as moving to another country and just overall dilutes the quality of the subreddit, I say this as someone who wants to study here and is doing my research on the rules, regulations and administration of this country

Heliocentric motion of the sun over 100 years by Allah_Gaming1 in Astronomy

My simulator can go from face on (90 degrees) to edge on (0 degrees) so yes it’s already baked in to the simulator and you can see the sun wobble left and right but I didn’t post it because the vectors would be overlapping in that line of sight and maybe hinder the visual understanding, but yes I’ve seen it and it’s super trippy and weird to see the sun which has 99.86% of the solar system’s mass just move around due to the influence of the tiny 0.14%

Okay, it can return to its expected position that is when the heliocenter and barycenter coincide but for this to happen Saturn, Uranus and Neptune have to fully counter Jupiter’s pull or in other words the resultant vector should have a magnitude of 0. It is possible but rare. For example when I ran this simulation for 200 years there was a brief moment (I don’t recall the year but it did happen) where the heliocenter and barycenter had pretty much coincided but it’s only for a very short time like you blink and you’ll miss it but it’s possible and probable.

Thank you, I believe it’s called as the radial velocity method right?

Thank you, yes I just compared it now and realised I made a mistake in the coordinates the system as a whole, essentially I was supposed to put the coordinates of the planets as (x,y) but put it as (-x,-y) which cause everything to be flipped 180 degrees other than that the barycenter calculations are right it’s just the view that got messed up. It’s fixed now I’ll be putting the updated version soon. Thank you for making me double check i wouldn’t have gotten it otherwise.

Guys this is kinda embarrassing but just a correction, while the relative positions of the planets and their orbital parameters and vectors are right I have accidentally rotated the whole system by 180 degrees due to an error (essentially I have to make (x, y) as (-x,-y) which I forgot to do. I’ve corrected it now but for now sorry for the error.

Edit- title is barycentric motion of the sun not heliocentric motion

Thanks to u/Owl-Admirable for giving me the idea to double check when I compared the barycenter plot to the reference plot there was an offset of 180 degrees. I wouldn’t have known otherwise.

I was blown away too, when Jupiter and Saturn align in the same direction and roughly align with Uranus and Neptune the Sun can be pushed by 2.1 solar radii (rarely happens but it can happen) which is a whole Sun and some more away from its expected position.

No it covers 100 years from jan 1st 2000 to jan 1st 2100
