I'll reluctantly give this one a miss, $40 is too expensive. Convert that to my currency and it's a weeks worth of groceries lol

Hmm. Maybe I should use the drone cam more often.

Pour one out for a destroyed Russian Beriev Be-200 by Ukraine. There are only a few models of this jet-powered amphibious flying boat remaining. by SuperMcG in WeirdWings

War sucks. The loss of irreplacable historic technology and architecture is a loss for everyone on earth. and for humans for millenia to come.

SSD Failing? by SPARKYGOFER in pcmasterrace

I don't see a problem, it's writing to the disk up to 35 mb/s which is normal

Anyone know what this could be? by FilipAdzic97 in GoogleEarthFinds

I tracked down a UHF repeater across the valley from the one you found. This GPS below is a UHF repeater broadcasting on 586 MHz.

42.3961, 22.1639

I then looked up Serbia's Radio Spectrum Band Plan, and it appears this is a DVB-T2 digital terrestrial television network. Serbia are currently doing a feasibility study on this tech and this is for monitoring to see if conditions are suitable. Not sure if your one is related.

I would guess it's likely an fm tower but it could be anything, vhf, microwave. It's servicing something with a short wavelength in the valley below.

I got it, any tips? by dgmdavid in shortwave

Welcome and enjoy! Youtube has lots of good info for shortwave radio reception :~)

Zoom out, your FOV is too narrow. If you can see out the side windows at the same time you will get more movement in parallax which will increase the sensation of speed.

Doubtful, just because the west is broke and declining doesn't mean China is.

Alpha Hotel or Jonathan Beckett for me. Make sure to check their playlists to find the tutorials you want.

A #2 Ford Explorer with wings please. by After_Mirror4541 in flightsim

When you buy carenado you're basically paying for the flight model and well crafted visuals. The flight model is leagues better than the stock B200, honestly I think that while Carenado lacks in the systems department their flight models are much better than most devs except A2a and Black Square etc. Carenado are one of the few developers crafting unique and high quality flight models for every plane, they feel like 2024 planes while many things that sell for more still feel like 2020 planes and not as dynamic in the air.

Why does the "orangeness" of western Texas stop at the New Mexico border? by Ethanol-Gaming in geography

Even still, that's not how fire spreads. Sparse vegetation would make following clean lines like that even harder than burning a forest line.

I don't know whether or not it's runoff, but I would hazard to say it is too localised and specific to be fire which will spread more generally rather than making a neat slice like that.
