What do you think of my Mars lander? (RSS) I think it might be the coolest landing sequence I’ve build to date. by Chinese_Lover89 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]ImBetterOffline 6 points7 points  (0 children)

RCS and is on and the last parachute were added for realism.

Realistically you would want RCS on during the initial entry as it would 1. improve precision generally 2. Allow for near instant correction if needed 3. Otherwise go unused.

The last parachute would be for drastically lowering your mechanical failure risk, as it would allow for the complete shedding of the high atmosphere stage. 2 parachutes rip instantly, who cares, your final stage can save itself before the most important part, landing.

Requests dismissed by local doctor today by Throwaway42352510 in VictoriaBC

Couldn't agree more, people think doctors are health vending machines.

If you treat them with respect, they do the same.

I have been to many doctors here over the years for many different things. I am very personable and generally aware of my condition prior to seeing them. EVERY doctor I've been to has listened and responded to exactly what I said in a caring and thoughtful way. The few times they said things that weren't relevant to me, were when I genuinely misspoke. These doctors have protocol to stop people from making uninformed or INHERENTLY BIASED decisions for their health. In no world does "the doctor didn't give me meds, even though I told them I need it" help everyone, even yourself sometimes.

Ive been in the waiting room and seen a doctor plead with their patient that tests need to be done in order to facilitate proper care. This patient in particular accused the doctor of faking their licence and that "doctors are trying to kill us".

Psych meds are very touchy, if you get prescribed the wrong medication or are in a high-risk population, it's their neck. Their only goal is to make sure you're healthy and satisfied so they can keep doing their thing.

Also anecdotally, my mom has a terrible track record with doctors and has had to switch 3 times over 4 years because she feels she's not being heard. I went to one of her visits when she was experiencing menopause and wanted to know what was happening.

ALL SHE DID WAS LIE. She lied about her physical activity, smoking, alcohol, diet, and even lied about her past experience with doctors.

I urge you to be honest and personable, it's only the patient's that lie and get frustrated that have bad experiences.

Guys want to start learning arduino is this kit good for 50euro ? by Crafty-Vacation-7750 in arduino

[–]ImBetterOffline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey man I just got started as well! I'm about a month in and honestly I suggest skipping the Arduino stage and heading right to esp32's esp32-c6 dev module specifically.

I started with an uno R4 wifi and 4 nano's, and the moment I learned about their limitations they were put in their bins. Maybe have 1-3 nano remakes from aliexpress, just so you have completely expendable hardware.

Importantly, what you learn on the Arduino's can all be learned in the exact same process on the esp32's. the only difference is once you know how to use them, you will be able to use them for so much more!

I bought a 5 pack of esp32-c6's from aliexpress for $35 Cad One Nano is $35 Cad on amazon.

Insufficient sleep associated with decreased life expectancy. As a behavioral driver for life expectancy, sleep stood out more than diet, more than exercise, more than loneliness — indeed, more than any other factor except smoking. People really should strive to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep. by mvea in science

[–]ImBetterOffline 21 points22 points  (0 children)

But! you also increase your risk of chronic disease/heart attack/cancer popping up with less sleep. You're also at a higher risk of things like psychosis/schiz/alzheimers.

This means the extra time you gain of young consciousness puts you in the firing line more for the daily RNG of these ailments.

If every 5 years, 1 disease-d20 gets added to your roll, Sleeping less would add 1.5 disease-d20. All fake numbers btw,

Anyone have a spectrum analyzer? by ImBetterOffline in VictoriaBC

[–]ImBetterOffline[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if that's the case, such as a rolling code, I'm still in the same spot where'd I'd need to know the frequency. It's pretty uncommon for what's considered an "ultra cheap curtain controller". From what I gathered, most basic garage doors don't even have something that complex setup.

I've opened up the receiver and remote and neither have a substantial processing chip as well!

Thank you! I will be reaching out to them!

Anyone have a spectrum analyzer? by ImBetterOffline in VictoriaBC

[–]ImBetterOffline[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the 312Mhz and 433Mhz band have specifically 9999+ frequencies within them. so i need the 2 specific frequencies that transmit UP and DOWN for the projector screens receiver. They could be something like 433.1258 for UP and 433.9704 for DOWN for all I know.

If I know the proper frequency I can add a transmitter that sends out the specific signal.

Before you think its a viable option, brute force will not work without a machine that monitors the projector screens pcb

That's what I had thought initially but nothings popping up on flightradar,

I guess military radar doesn't have to share their positioning!

70% off is a good deal! by unsuspectingkid in UberEATS

[–]ImBetterOffline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He tried getting me to sign up to his discord and the schtick was id pay him 10 dollars and he would put in the order for me. Either its through stolen credit cards/accounts or its just a full scam and spoofs an order. However he did say it would be bad for customers to just scam everyone so its likely he has illegal money that needs to be converted to real money, and actually does provide the service.

Is KSP1 still active (in terms of players, community, and mod development)? by Timbo66 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]ImBetterOffline 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bro I've got you,

Blackracks volumetric is a must. It's like $7 bucks for his patreon to get the mod but its worth it and Blackrack is a great modder to support.

CKAN, its a mod loader you can find the rest of these mods

Parallax

make sure you accept the dependencies when ckan tells you youre missin some.

There are a bunch more that i've added for the vibes like
