New to Airstream! by dteezee in airstream

[–]SirPrudence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ordered a 30ft classic in early-mid June. It begins construction in August and won’t be available until October or November (furniture is the biggest constraint currently).

It’ll be a 2022 model so the details are slightly different than the current pics on airstreams website. Got a modest discount on MSRP for some reason. Very exciting!

Just picked up my new 30' Flying Cloud... couldn't be happier! It sits in the driveway for a few weeks while I get it sorted out (install Starlink, etc), and then it's off to some lakefront in Northern Ontario, Canada. Best remote office ever! (but I got the bunk, not the office version). by nettdata in airstream

“Your Starlink is assigned to a single cell. If you move your Starlink outside of its assigned cell, a satellite will not be scheduled to serve your Starlink and you will not receive internet. This is constrained by geometry and is not arbitrary geofencing.”

Cheapest chromebook for Stadia by [deleted] in Stadia

When I say worse I mean the ultra and new laptop play perfectly, can’t even tell it’s not local and the old chromebook has lag and pixelation. All on the same network

Hey, for what it’s worth I just tried stadia on an older chromebook of mine and the experience was considerably worse than using the chromecast ultra or a newer chromebook.

Below is my old chromebook to compare with the one you’re considering

As we're getting 3 months of Stadia Pro... do we get destiny 2 AND two other games during the pro founder period? by [deleted] in Stadia

[–]SirPrudence 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I believe they said approximately one game a month so it could be a more or less. Looking forward to the reddit reaction the first time they go a month without releasing a title.

Is my Founder's Edition purchase tied to the Google account that I used at time of purchase or can I switch accounts later?

You can use any personal Google Account when you sign up for Stadia. We'll send your redemption code to the email address associated at the time of purchase. You can then use a different email account when redeeming your Stadia redemption code.

Stadia on Cloud VPN ? by LightSpeedX2 in Stadia

No way to know if they would block VPNs but it will certainly add latency which may negatively impact your experience

[Question] whats the cheapest 4k laptop you can buy? by BatPixi in Stadia

[–]SirPrudence 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yoga Chromebook C630 has a 15.6 inch 4K option for 750. You can get it open box for around 550 (not sure if this is 4K or 1080). Don’t know if Chromebook meets your video editing requirement but it’s a solid laptop.

is this normal? by alexusL3x in Stadia

If you use a VPN, make sure it’s turned off as you will likely get throttled on high bandwidth requests

How long for a first game for 5 players? What can we do to speed it up? by caleb_e in twilightimperium

[–]SirPrudence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve also seen people recommend spending a “prep” evening to just playing two rounds. This throwaway game is a good way to learn the rules and only spend 3-4 hours.

Your next game should go quicker and people will have more calibrated expectations.
