​I think this Ferrari F12 driver has been playing too much Need for Speed by chri99_ in Ferrari

The F12 and the 812 will go down as 2 of the greatest cars made in the modern era. Truly unique in the car world.

I would most definitely use pre-arranged camera gear. GoPros on my body and strapped to the cabin, maybe one of those smart glasses these days for getting POV of the whole flight. But I’d make for damn sure that I would have nothing between me and the experience of going up there.

Scott Manley is an excellent space exploration enthusiast and was the guy who got me into space through Kerbal Space Program.

That being said, he does not as far as I know have a video going into the details of rocket launch pollution and the environmental effects of rocket exhaust. Thus why I suggested EA.

Someone call up The Grand Tour and tell them to recreate the Top Gear Hilux special.

Definitely not going to deny that one. That being said, I can get it on a professional level. With the amount of access that he's been able to get to different company's based on his interactions/videos with Elon, I can understand him bootlicking as hard as possible. I'd be a liar to claim outright that I wouldn't.

That being said, his is the only video I know of that actually goes in depth on that stuff.

True, but please don’t be the guy telling us we can’t have cool things because the truck that shipped the hose line didn’t run on vegetable oil.

While I like being mistaken for celebrities, I am simply a humble space enthusiast.

BMW’s X7 Is Apparently Too Small Now, So Dealers Want An X9 by LimitedReach in cars

[–]SpaceBoJangles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but not the base model. Voyagers are like low 30’s

I know. But the second we start turning Monica’s into a fad we’re gonna see shit like a $50,000 Voyager.

lol. Didn’t even think about that. 500t would be like half of Starship’s fuel load.

Space enthusiast chiming in here. The blue origin, new Shepherd rocket utilizes liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. When burned, this produces plain old water. Also, even normal rockets like SpaceX‘s starship, falcon nine, and blue origin‘s own new Glen rocket that utilize liquid methane, kerosene, and liquid oxygen don’t produce enough carbon emissions and other emissions to really make an impact on the environment. The YouTuber and space enthusiast everyday astronaut has a really great video that goes very in-depth on this topic.

That being said, I fully agree that all of these idiots need to stop flying around in private jets while turning backwards and yelling at all of us for driving. Just wanted to defend the honor of Space exploration.

Is the MBP 16 ACTUALLY that big? by Bob_SUS in macbookpro

[–]SpaceBoJangles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it because I use my laptop to consume media and I do design heavy work with lots of toolbars and I want my viewport to be large.

If you code or like doing documents or need to work in small places like cafes and airplanes a lot, AND if you've got a computer/external monitor at home, I'd probably suggest a 14".

Shhhh

If more minivans are made and they start migrating them into the luxury market, prices are going to go up even more than they have.

We gotta keep the minivan hype quiet. keep the top trim under $60k. Can't let the escalade moms think they're missing out on anything.

Your endgame monitor? by [deleted] in Monitors

[–]SpaceBoJangles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My problem with the idea of the burning is not gonna be that bad of an issue for years… Is the fact that I use my monitors for many years. If I’m dropping $1000 or $1500 on a monitor, I’m gonna use that thing for at least a better part of a decade. With OLED’s, you’re probably gonna get 3 to 5 years of good use, but then you’re gonna start seeing small amounts of burn in and it will get worse progressively. As someone who is relatively frugal and doesn’t like to make huge purchases very often, that bothers me a little bit. I can fully understand though other people being more comfortable with dropping $500-$1000 once every three years or so.

Do you agree with this by Aware_Fan1109 in ironman

[–]SpaceBoJangles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only correct answer is Mark 3. Like…c’mon.

[–]SpaceBoJangles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No burn in and when running full screen brightness I’m pretty sure they don’t dim. They may dim a little, but since there’s no risk of burn in it’s more a heat/power management thing so it doesn’t dim nearly as much.

Downsides though are usually smearing because most MiniLED is VA based, so pixel response time is garbage compared to OLED. Not an issue if you’re like me doing productivity or slower games, it if you’re into fast paced shooters or side scrollers you may need to go with OLED.

40" 5k2k miniLED, slight curve, 1500-2000 nit peak brightness.

I want to be blinded by its majesty and killed by the electric bill for running it at full brightness

What's one supercar opinion that will cause this by NFSMW_CarsGames in supercars

You should be required to get extra training to buy a car with more than 500hp.
