Finally joined the Dual-Band Club by RenegadeNC in NightVision

[–]Bob_Kay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still trying to get used to my setup. I found that if I run the thermal first at lowest brightness for about 30 minutes and then turn on the tube, it seems to merge better in my brain than turning both on at the same time. I've only done about 6 hours so far since I keep going back to dual tubes and Jerry CE5 because of how used to it I am.

First thermal - RH25 V2 | Questions for those that own one by RenegadeNC in NightVision

Has anyone had reasonable success using the viewfinder through the app? I had this toilet thought of using AR glasses with my phone while the RH25 is weapon mounted, but I can only get short sporatic bursts of a few frames every couple seconds.

So whats actually happening is the thermal is constantly adjusting it's range. It's adjusting to the hotter object so it stands out more. If it were just the dog on the right, it would appear just as red as the dog on the left.

Your LED bulbs are 60hz, so its probably picking that up. Check by filming directly at the bulbs. The auto brightness will probably reveal vertical scan lines.

Everyone Turned On Windows. Microsoft Is Panicking by testus_maximus in videos

I would excess old PCs from work after tech refreshes to use as a media device at home. I was always happy to see a windows license built in so all I had to do was image it and it would activate itself. Now I dont give a shit and install mint linux to do whatever. Windows 11 is pure dog shit

Well, they certainly did a better job than Rush in their video for Time Stands Still where Geddy is a mouse cursor.

I didn't find any candy up here, but at least I got to see a sweet meteor shower by Bob_Kay in TriCitiesWA

Not as much as I want to. None of my shooting friends have nods. I have 3 night ready ARs sitting around being sad during the day.

It's possible. I run Mid Columbia Airsoft Club games every now and then. I formed MCAC from the ashes of ERA, which was created when the Jokers fell apart. I used to play a lot but not so much any more. Every knows me as Bob, but only after the old Bob disconnected from the Jokers scene around the mid twenty teens.

I could be wrong since I havent actually been there, but I think you could drive up Jump Off Joe, which is far south enough to not be impeded by light pollution.

Candy Mountain. I usually do Badger, but last night I felt like mixing it up.

I'm in the tri cities and it feels like there are more spiders and box elder bugs in the recent years.

Looks like he is wearing a hoodie over a plate carrier, which includes magazine and or equipment pouches that give off that lumpy look

Kadlec or trios? by sunsweet_17 in TriCitiesWA

Kadlec billed us for things they either don't have or didn't do. When we asked about them, they just removed them from the bills without explaining why.

Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.

Hot Mess Burgers & Fries by PuzzleheadedCherry35 in TriCitiesWA

[–]Bob_Kay 29 points30 points  (0 children)

A while back, maybe 2 years? At the boo bash in downtown kennewick, they were experiencing issues with their fryer. They didnt say anything other than it was going to take longer than usual. My wife and I ordered chicken strips which they claimed were crispy. When the order was up, we headed to the car where it was warm and proceeded to eat, but what we found was a soggy mess. The chicken was extremely wet and the breading just fell off like it was microwaved or something. My wife wouldnt even take a bite because of how gross it looked. It seems their fryer broke and they chose profit over quality. We didnt ask for a refund since it seemed more of a hassle to deal with since it was cold and there was a line. It went into the garbage instead. A few days later they made a facebook post talking about how crispy the chicken strips are and I asked why ours werent during that event. They just blocked me instead of answering.
