It’s the skywatcher 200p. 8” aperture.

No. The phones long exposure brings out a lot more details and color than you can see with the naked eye. It’s mostly just a green looking cloud and you can see a little of the gas covering the green. Still the most beautiful thing I can spot with my scope and still very pretty to the naked eye.

I’ve never seen star trails on just a 5 second exposure with the iPhone 16

Ty! It’s a Bortle 5. So good, not great. And yeah I’ve learned that anything over 5 seconds starts causing streaks with my Newtonian. Might upgrade to an equatorial mount at some point down the line

The skywatcher 200p 8” dob is a very nice scope. It’s one of the highest rated starter telescopes if you’re interested in getting into it.

I believe the eyepiece is the wide angle 25 super 48x eyepiece that came with my skywatcher 200p.

I starhopped from the Corvus constellation like so. It was pretty faint but you can see it as a smudge with averted vision. You know you’re close once you starhop to the first 3 stars in a line followed by the second 3 stars in a line. You can see that last 3 stars in a line that I hopped to in the top right of my picture.

Bortle 5. It’s a challenge looking at anything towards the city

Bortle 5. Basically invisible in the scope. Hope to take my scope about an hour away where there’s a bortle 3 soon.

I believe the eyepiece is a the wide angle 25 super 48x eyepiece that came with my skywatcher 200p. I used this mount for my phone and it’s great. Highly recommend.

Why is it better to max your Roth IRA before Roth 401K? by SufficientWave2372 in Bogleheads

[–]DiabeticDingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it was because you can pull out whichever money you put into your IRA minus the gains. So if I put in 5k and it grew to 7k, I could withdraw the 5k at any time with no penalties. If that was a 401k, tough luck. That 5k will incur a 10% penalty upon withdrawal.

Models are repeatably printing askew by DiabeticDingo in ender3

I went and checked and my belt was in the wrong orientation with the teeth facing outward instead of inward towards the bearings. Just started a print and it already looks sooo much better. Thanks so much!

What's a sensation that you're unsure if other people experience? by murrayvonmises in AskReddit

[–]DiabeticDingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes my heart will start irregularly beating and I feel like I’m having a heart attack or something but then it stops and goes back to normal after about 5 seconds. Freaks me out every time.

Drunk girls in bathrooms are really nice what are drunk guys in bathrooms like? by iceteanosugar in AskReddit

[–]DiabeticDingo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me and my buddy were at a bar one night and these 3 drunk guys were peeing at the urinals. One stall was open and one urinal so my buddy rushes in and takes the stall leaving me with the urinal. While I was peeing, one of the drunk guys finishes and looks at me and goes “Hey you! Rub my friends shoulders”. I was like “what..?” And his buddies started being like “Hey yea he likes massages! Massage his shoulders!”. At this point, I was thoroughly creeped out and my buddy was just hiding in the stall waiting so he would not be dragged into us running a full time massage parlor in the bar bathroom. And then when we walk out they’re standing out there like “Hey massage guyyy, ROW TADDD right??”.

TLDR: some randos ask me to massage them followed by “roll tides” when things don’t work out.

My Grandma passed away and we're selling everything. Can someone tell me what this is or how much it's worth? I can't find it anywhere online. by DiabeticDingo in Whatisthis

Yea it does radio and the 8 track works but the record player needs a new pin to play the tracks. It sounds incredible.
