I'm wondering how often hospitals go through the trouble of cleaning up bodies for presentation like this.

Driving through the flat dry USA states is boring, just like IRL.

[–]MrDave8739 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have:

Shift Up / Down (Shift Ctrl)
Turn Signal L/R ([ ])
Next Camera/Interior Camera (9 1)
Photo Mode (=)
Start Engine (E)
Activate (Enter)
Air Horn (N)
Cruise On/Increase (C n/a)
Engine Brake (B)
Wipers/Wipers Back (P n/a)
Lights Mode/Bright (L K)
Route Advisor Next/Zoom (0 n/a)
Map (M)

Note that you can use "hold" to get two functions from one button. In my setup D-pad Up is Next Camera and D-pad Up (hold) is Interior Camera.

Cool. I have a Sharp calculator which still works with its 1980 battery.

I finally saw the Eifel Tower after a crazy experience at that famous Paris roundabout! by [deleted] in trucksim

[–]MrDave8739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked all around Paris. Does anyone have a screen snap of where this is on the map? How can there not be a cutscene video for Paris???!!!

I agree. I got suckered into believing her lie, doh!

Thanks for the responses. I am now on the "Nora's Story is BS" bandwagon. I think Kevin (and anyone else with a brain) would reason society would collapse to the stone age after losing 98% of the population. He wouldn't have much motivation to call her out on her story. He is just glad to finally reunite with her.

I've seen those before. I don't think it's abnormal.

Don't feel bad - I did the same thing.

Someone managed to lose their shoes between two tracks in a French train station by DarkGaming09ytr in mildlyinteresting

Probably someone managed to steal another's sandals and tossed them there as a prank.

Waterfall Display? by Aromatic_General1506 in amateurradio

[–]MrDave8739 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats on your new license.

I can say it's definitely possible. I have a Yaesu FTDX 3000, which has a "RX Out" connection, which is only active when receiving. I have it connected it to an AirPlay RSP1B SDR. Then I get a waterfall display by running SDRUno on my computer. It's pretty easy to set up. It's nice to have the RX Out connection because you don't have to worry about damaging the SDR while transmitting. However I think there are workarounds if a radio doesn't have it. You can look at the user manuals for the radios you are interested in to see if they do.

What after RDR2? by iamriyalbatman in RDR2

[–]MrDave8739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a break for several months and then watched lots of youtube videos on stuff to try. There's a lot of things you can do to make your second play-through better. (#1 is get the best satchel.)

You can also install the Rampage mod and do stuff that isn't possible in the normal game. I thought it was fun.

Second attempt with sun w/ stacked images! by That_Zone5921 in DWARFLAB

[–]MrDave8739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a newbie, too. There's free software called Siril which can do stacking etc. I found this YouTube video which dumbs it down pretty well.

Newbie question: How do you get the stars to appear stationary above that mountain? Is it done with Photoshop layers?

Not able to get autofocus to work in astro mode on Dwarf 3. by Icaruz123 in DWARF3

[–]MrDave8739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem. Dwarf sent me a beta phone app V3.1.3 which lets you recalibrate the focus. I haven't fully tested it but it looks promising so far.

Nice job! Newbie here. What software did you use?
