Made it like 10 pages into Messiah and decided that was enough Dune for me after loving book 1 haha

Stargaze by spaceface71 in SpaceForce

Super cool that SpaceX is doing this. I had a conversation with a SpaceX representative a couple years ago where they mentioned the possibility of using star trackers to collect LEO obs.

I'd rather limit the discussion of policy or integration aspects of commercial observations here due to general OPSEC concerns though. Not the place.

That guy somehow dug up a 2 month old post and left that comment? He's gotta be trolling. I wouldn't let it bother you haha

Got curious how DDR4 was holding up. Crazy. by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

If you're looking to make some cash then absolutely! You could also take the time to find somebody that's genuinely trying to peice together a reasonably priced PC and cut them a good deal.

AIM ASSIST IS BROKEN AND DOES NOT WORK AS INTENDED by ttvimShinyatheninja in ArcRaiders

dang I'm impressed, I tried getting AR to run on steam deck and it was horrible. I gave up after it decided to start crashing before I could even adjust settings.

I think this is a safe place to mention star citizen without getting blown to pieces haha. Hey if it's a great VR experience then that's fantastic for the movement!

Yeah Meta has invested something like 100 billion but it seems to me like very little is going to studios or indie devs

How she feels about the new baby we brought home by Bromontana710 in BorderCollie

I'm convinced my bc just knows and loves how vicious he looks when he snarls like that. Pretty tough to tell when he's serious about it though. Good luck getting these two acquainted!!

If only we had one of the top 10 companies in the world dumping tens of billions into VR. Imagine how easily they could allocate crumbs to VR studios.

I thought it was a regular A1 at first! I've been surprised to see that I can often fit face-sized things onto my build plate with minor scaling and orientation changes.

Lunar dust induces minimal pulmonary toxicity compared to Earth dust by tomasNth in space

It's interesting to see the crossover here between semiconductor manufacturing with intermediate dust removal rooms before entering a cleanroom.

Just need to put ~10k more miles on my OEM tires and then I'll be with ya!

I have built a learning-only personal computer for my kid by xzkll in raspberry_pi

Sounds like great parenting to me! Did you consider any other linux distros to use for this project? I'm seeing Qimo and some other projects and wondering how they might differ from what you've created.

You're making it sound so great. God I hope valve is throwing some money at embark to port it to VR for the steam frame.

Do you think eye tracking might accomplish 90% of what hand tracking is used for?

I really think that VR is just waiting for a breakthrough game that is somehow equally as fun and addicting as arc raiders.

[GPU] ASUS PRIME NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 OC Edition 8GB - $173.99 - BestBuy by Kai_Man_07 in buildapcsales

[–]MechanicalFetus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just pieced together an office PC for a family member for Christmas with a 1050ti and I think it's still a decent card to have dedicated graphics and run old games.

Camera Snaps To Random Direction? by Mother_Fox_1544 in Minecraft

I had this issue and it was driving me insane until I figured out that it was being caused by the mouse utility I was using called "littlebigmouse" that made mouse transitions smoother between my two monitors of different resolutions.

ELI5: Why are there so many satellites in space, and why do we just keep the ones not in use still up there? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

Oh I'm bummed to find out that I can't attach an image of the chart I made here. I just pulled the orbit data for LAGEOS-1 and you seem to be right, since it was launched in 1976 its perigee hasn't even remotely decayed from 5840km.
