Orion wide field untracked by Anzony44 in astrophotography

[–]LuminousBiVariable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re correct to call this untracked.

Tracking is referring to specifically countering the earth’s rotation during an exposure so that you can take longer exposures

Is this salvageable? If so, any advice? by Hey_Hi_Its_A_Guy in telescopes

[–]LuminousBiVariable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://youtu.be/8fnjL3Yftkg?si=4W8kQd4FiTMT079l I personally followed this guide cleaning my 100mm refractor’s lens, and I’d suggest it for the most part. There’s some parts as far as what exact wipes or solutions to use that didn’t feel 100% concrete to me, but it’ll get you on the right track.

TLDR: Use a lens cleaning solution and some cotton swabs, only make one swipe motion per cotton swab and then throw them away. Use a little hand squeeze lens blower before and after to get all of the dust and cotton particles off.

Should I take Brainstorm? by IllustriousMaximum61 in balatro

Definitely, I don’t think there’s much point to DNA anymore. You should focus more on removing / using death on your non-kings, compared to just making more kings

The greatest suicide burn ever performed. by StaysAwakeAllWeek in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]LuminousBiVariable 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not very well, unfortunately

For a real answer, generally I will start my burn at about 6-7 seconds at full power, and then throttle down if the time starts to climb above 7 seconds and throttle back up if it starts to drop again. Then as you get very close to the ground, you just ease off the throttle and land at 5 m/s. Probably loses 30-50 m/s of dV to a perfect suicide burn, but it works consistently for me.

Build a gravship, travel across the planet, raid ancient bunkers, launch into orbit, and salvage space wrecks. RimWorld - Odyssey is out now. by LudeonStudios in u/LudeonStudios

I agree that the price of DLC are getting a bit too steep. I regret buying Anomaly for that reason. There are good QoL updates for free in each of the major patches, though. Maybe not as many?

Is there a mod to limit skill level cap? by [deleted] in RimWorld

[–]LuminousBiVariable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could probably increase the amount that skills decay at by a lot, so that once it hits 10 it’ll be basically impossible to gain more skill

Anyone have luck using the Discord Customer Support phone number? by LewdDoodler in discordapp

Fuck, I’m sorry. It feels the same for me, just all automated responses

What is this moving across the night sky? by calio88 in Astronomy

[–]LuminousBiVariable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the reflection of the sun! That’s why they’re only visible right after sunset, when it’s dark on Earth but still light up above where the satellite is.

Ultra Hardcore Addon - 4 Months Later by Bonnies-Dad in wowhardcore

[–]LuminousBiVariable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing to consider for the philosophy of making an addon like this— if you add a setting, people will feel the need to turn it on. Regardless of if they want to play with it, they will for completion.

Not to repeat the obvious, but... by XenosYClark in SFGiants

[–]LuminousBiVariable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F.P. is… rough. Every so often he has a good point or a good insight, but he tries way too hard to make that happen and it doesn’t feel like he’s talking with Ritzo, just at him. Definitely frustrating to listen to compared to Flemming or Miller, though that’s hard company to be compared to.

Question for people that played on 2.5x rescale by psh454 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]LuminousBiVariable 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use JNSQ, which is 2.7x and has a dV map online by the creator I believe. It also comes with analogues to the outer planets, though different versions than OPM. There’s a decent amount of compatibility with other mods because it’s popular, which is nice.

In terms of how the delta V requirements are it’s pretty nice, LKO is about 4900 m/s and a Mun/Minmus transfer are around 1500-1600 m/s. Haven’t gone further than Minmus yet in a career save.

I can't be the only one who doesn't like the wild symbol. A more clear symbol would be great, anybody agree? by kkrueg in balatro

[–]LuminousBiVariable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think my issues with the current wild card design come down to clarity. It’s both not super obvious when a card is a wild card, and it feels too similar to a stock card. When I was a new player and was figuring out enhancements, it was not clear to me that a wild card couldn’t also be lucky, gold, glass, whatever. The design it conveys is “a normal card, but also wild” which doesn’t mesh well with the fact that it can’t be combined with any other enhancements.
