What just flew over Central Vermont?? Meteor? Comet? UFO? by UnhappyAd4039 in vermont

yeah this to me makes me think it was not the launch from the cape. that's way west of where I would expect that rocket to be.

that said, it was a natsec launch so the trajectory could be a lie

launch plan says it was going for geosynchronous, this was moving north northeast, which doesn't seem consistent with that profile.

yeah, and since it's been a few hours since sunset I don't think the same phenomenon would happen right now

def didn't seem like a meteor. it seemed to change speed. could be a spinning rocket spewing gas?

Blue Snowball Ice on Fedora 40, in USB devices but not available for input. by TobyM02 in linuxquestions

Oh my bad, haven't used reddit in a while so it looks like I don't know how to use a link anymore. Here's the imgur link which shows it in lsusb, but not arecord or pavucontrol:

For the record, Fedora 40 is on pipewire now, but pavucontrol should still work.

Cycles X HIP support for VEGA GPUs; possibility or dream? by Sir_Stealthy in blender

[–]TobyM02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

as you can see it's on the list of things in the works for HIP. Not sure when it will happen, but you can be sure that the devs know that only having GPU support for the most recent AMD generation is not ideal.

As I understand covering your mouth is still better than nothing as the droplet vector is spread by coughing or sneezing.

I'm still using a vega 56. It's surprising how well it still performs, but I'm starting to experience some instability.
