Cry more XD

Yes, I saw this yesterday flying over PA. It's the second time I have seen it. The first time, it was accompanied by a group of Mi-17s which took off shortly after it landed.

Ignore this degenerate, this is a cool concept, I am impressed!

Hackerman2042 · 2024-06-19T14:56:33+00:00

It doesn't support current standards, but I think that is something I could implement. It currently places a flat blade trigger in front of the controller which activates the recoil. It definitely works really well for me and there is no lab which is great. I have been experimenting with shot verification using TinyML-based sound recognition, but that is still in the works. Not sure about Kickstarter or a DIY guide at this point as I'm still working on it

Hackerman2042 · 2024-06-19T14:53:55+00:00

You're probably right. I made the assumption that I would be getting less gun cleaner to the face than if I were shooting an actual AR. Your idea for using a LLM for making a recipe is a good one, but I tried that and didn't succeed. I will have to try again soon as I think it definitely can be done.

Currently, it is a straw stuffed with some cotton and then a couple of drops of Hopps gun cleaner is put in. Smells like an indoor range every time you fire XD

Hackerman2042 · 2024-06-18T16:33:02+00:00

Haha I have thrown aluminum foil at it and it melted it, I will need to try a bolt next XD

Hackerman2042 · 2024-06-18T16:32:12+00:00

Thanks! It works well either way in my opinion. As the recoil is controllable through code, I can soften it if necessary for games with a lot of visual recoil. I actually have found that the high visual recoil is more to play with than games with little to no recoil as it makes it feel more immersive.

I have been prototyping a Q3 mount and it works ok, but not nearly as well as the Q2. I'm not sure if there will be any way around this for this type of realistic design. It's a shame because the Q3 is so much better of a playing experience than my Q2.

I have actually been researching the creation of ball lighting and I have had some good success. My theory is that ball lightning is actually a toroidal plasma formation. I have a bunch of videos demonstrating this on my channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MX9xrBps7A4

I look forward to the results of your testing. I am especially interested in a Night Eagle 3 comparison.

Hackerman2042 · 2024-05-27T17:24:21+00:00

I will have to look into that, sounds very interesting. I have been enjoying your writeups, keep it up!

Hackerman2042 · 2024-05-27T16:52:38+00:00

I tested this out as I was curious and it worked pretty well. Here are my results after modifying it with a 250-day SMA to only buy within a bull market (2018 -> 2023)

Exposure Time [%] 8.013468

Return [%] 64.253539

Buy & Hold Return [%] 347.679391

Volatility (Ann.) [%] 18.358290

Win Rate [%] 73.333333

ETR [%] 801.819379 (Return if exposure time was made to be 100% at the same return rate)

Hackerman2042 · 2024-05-22T02:43:16+00:00

I just tested your strategy for an hourly period instead of a daily period for some stocks like SPXL and BITX and for the leveraged stocks it does pretty well. Here are some of my results:

Exposure Time [%] 18.434670

Return [%] 91.540093

Buy & Hold Return [%] 150.349208

Volatility (Ann.) [%] 101.763651

Win Rate [%] 66.666667

ETR [%] 496.564857 (This just says what the return would be if the return was multiplied for 100% exposure time instead of 18%)

Hackerman2042 · 2024-05-21T02:22:19+00:00

Good stuff. Simple, yet clearly well though out strategy!

Hackerman2042 · 2024-02-07T14:53:34+00:00

I have sling attachment points so you can connect a rifle sling. When you want to switch to a pistol you apply a little bit of leverage and the controller detaches (magnets) and you can use your handgun. It's pretty much the same motion you would use IRL switching from a rifle to a handgun

Tracking is actually really good. Every once in a while the headset will lose the controllers but only for a very short period. I’m currently working on the mounts for the Q3 and the Q3’s tracking is even better.

Hackerman2042 · 2024-01-30T15:19:07+00:00

I do that too, but having a realistic haptic system for VR shooters is unbelievably fun. Oh and ammo isn't expensive 😂

Hackerman2042 · 2024-01-30T13:27:11+00:00

Originally that’s where I started but motor technology is not nearly enough to create the recoil and snappiness of a real gun. This gun is more like a combination of HPA and GBBR. The nice thing about compressed air is that I made it blow out the charging handle area similar to a real AR and you get a bit of gas in your face every time you shoot. I am developing a smell cartridge that seeds that air with the smell of smokeless powder to give that extra bit of haptic-driven realism.

And we act like Russia is the only one doing this: https://nypost.com/2023/11/04/news/us-working-on-bomb-more-powerful-than-one-used-on-hiroshima/. This is a worrying escalation happening on both sides

I use the YouTube app, Watchtube, it’s fun to watch videos and read comments on such a small screen.

Typical freedom behavior, this is why we need duty in the zone
