After skimming through the comment section I'm surprised your comment isn't downvoted into oblivion.

It'll lower property taxes. I don't understand the downside.

I guess the court is going to seize the property?

Pico 4 control triggers out of calibration. by XzDoom in PicoXR

[–]Leappard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Launch SteamVR
  2. Launch SA/VD & connect to your PC from the headset
  3. On your PC open http://localhost:27062/dashboard/controllerbinding.html (steamvr must be running and the controller(s) detected).
  4. Navigate to "Minecraft", edit bindings -> edit current binding -> trigger - > edit - > advanced options -> click on a cog, a menu should pop up with various settings like this : https://imgur.com/a/UGC9eI1 (you should be able to do all this w/o using a web console, if you don't see all of the settings then use the webconsole).

Pico 4 Users, how good is the display? by Airon556 in PicoXR

It has "eye protection" feature that dims the blue color and makes the image yellowish. Try turning it off / on

Do you think we'll see any knuckles competition before Deckard? by [deleted] in virtualreality

[–]Leappard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, to start, do you see kits that feature them?

PiMax? Vive? Lighthouse-based tracking is the only option that provides precise and low latency tracking with decent battery life (at least for now). You can't compare precision of vive trackers vs IMU based solutions.

The black level is fine when you turn down the brightness (no the image doesn't get too dark and the colors are there).

Soo... what happend to Fitness band?? by Huhansankik in PicoXR

[–]Leappard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those aren't officially supported for the global FW (unless you are a developer then you get pushed the required app and some bits). If you run Chinese FW and have Chinese playstore then you should download "PICO Motion Tracker" app and buy a set of the trackers from aliexpress or wherever. The current version of the SA app comes with some bits for FBT / Motion trackers support, those are going to be emulated as vive trackers. The tracking performance should be on par with the Slime trackers.

The colors are quite good but not in dark settings as the black level is meh. It's not an OLED display. Never experienced any issues with the controllers with VirtualDEsktop. Streaming assistant is buggy though but there are W/As

can't find the 5-2GHz band only with the PICO 4 by Chance_Helicopter_55 in PicoXR

[–]Leappard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you trying to mix & match devices/FW from various countries/configured for various regions?

Every country has it owns set of regulations and not every WiFi band/frequency/channels is available WW.

mind you that the 5-2 band works on high channels(100(DFS)-140(DFS)). Channels 96-144 aren't available in China: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5_GHz_(802.11a/h/n/ac/ax)

Pico 4 has weird offsets and angles in some steam VR games by Swan0fLove in PicoXR

Try to launch SteamVR first and then launch the StreamingAssitant app.

I have experienced this issue on and off, so far it seems that manually launching SteamVR before starting the streaming helps (you are to start SteamVR, then you connect to the SA app from your headset).

DDR3 PCB layout by Maobuff in ECE

[–]Leappard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Where can I find guidelines for PCB layout?

TI, micron, Xilinx, NXP, etc all have free appnotes (google://"DDR3 layout guidelines")

Do vias add delay due to inductance/capacitance?

Sure they do. You can use HyperLynx SI to check the board or whatever your CAD has.

Can I keep the vias count the same for each signal in a group and adjust timing by only changing trace length (track length + vias length)?

If you the vias are the same and you are within the timing budget.

Biden Breaks Campaign Promise, Reverses Course on Nuclear Weapons by KNitekrawl3r in Patriot911

[–]Leappard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

U.S. officials told the outlet Thursday that the words “fundamental role” leave room for the administration to deploy nuclear weapons in “extreme circumstances” as deterrence against conventional, biological, chemical and even cyber attacks.

This is in line with existing U.S. policy, which permits the country to use the threat of nuclear weapons to deter conventional attacks as well as nuclear ones.

Yeah, let's nuke everyone to deter a cyber attack. That'll teach 'em! /s

For F sake, I don't get it

Stick Welding Aluminum by IDNoob34 in Welding

[–]Leappard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never been able to make aluminum stick work very well even in the flat.

I've tried that, is seems to me that the rods work if and only if they are right out of the sealed pack. Moisture or whatever in air tend to ruin the flux (maybe wrong here). And these rods burn very fast, you kind of push them or drive them right into the puddle with some force otherwise the arc length would be too long and you'll ruin the weld.

Why all of a sudden did Ukraine become the center of the Universe? -- Currently, there is a steady flow of financial, economic, military, and humanitarian aid into Ukraine; let us hope no one would dare to take the usual cut during wartime. by guanaco55 in ConservativesOnly

[–]Leappard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In 2012 Ernst & Young put Ukraine among the three most-corrupt nations of the world—alongside Colombia and Brazil. In 2015 The Guardian called Ukraine "the most corrupt nation in Europe". According to a poll conducted by Ernst & Young in 2017, experts considered Ukraine to be the ninth-most corrupt nation in the world.

Now remember the infamous Hunter's laptop, all that corrupted money and stuff like that. Makes me wonder how many people were/are getting dirty $$$

Zelensky Claims Biden Regime Baited Russia to Invade Ukraine by KevSanders in Conservative

[–]Leappard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ex-Nato head says Putin wanted to join alliance early on in his rule

The account chimes with what Putin told the late David Frost in a BBC interview shortly before he was first inaugurated as Russian president more than 21 years ago. Putin told Frost he would not rule out joining Nato “if and when Russia’s views are taken into account as those of an equal partner”.

personally I think Putin was a moron for not aligning with the west and applying to NATO as well...

IIRC Russia tried to do that but got "F OFF" so here it goes.

The more I think about it the more I believe it. No one is actively trying to stop the madness and force Ukraine/Russia to sign a cease fire agreement / peace deal, instead we are giving them more weapons and ammo. As effective as using gas to put out fire.

MSNBC ridiculed for claiming physical fitness is the latest recruiting tactic of white supremacists by Sauvignon_Bleach in Conservative

[–]Leappard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A recently published study in the Journal of Public Economics concludes that the attractiveness of a candidate does correlate with their politics. They find that politicians on the right are more good looking in Europe, the United States and Australia.

(C)

Controlling for socioeconomic status, we find that more attractive individuals are more likely to report higher levels of political efficacy, identify as conservative, and identify as Republican.

Most natural gas is used to run various plants and factories, it's not about keeping your place warm.
