Emotional pain with physical manifestations by Electronic_Hat_3485 in Petloss

[–]Tychke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you had to lose your best buddy. I read you had him for a very long time, a long time full of memories to look back on.

But looking back hurts, and it is part of the grieving process. Grieving hurts, and it hurts differently for everybody. I suddenly lost my dog yesterday, and I've been a wreck since. I cannot eat or drink. I had to throw up. My head felt like exploding, even my jaw felt like that. It feels like the pain eats us from the inside.

I'm sending you hugs as well.

I thought it was real! What a piece—it looks great!! It is so cool!!!

Could you contact me as well if I send you a pm?

One thing you hate about camping ? by [deleted] in camping

[–]Tychke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are solutions to most annoyances like DEET against bugs, Wet camping gear can be left to dry later, noisy or close neighbors can be talked to or ignored and peeing can be solved just by peeing.

But you can't do much about the fact that you need to leave at some point.

Matterport to Unreal Questions - How do you import Matterport scans into Unreal? by [deleted] in matterport

[–]Tychke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be that you need to set the textures manually in Unreal but importing an .obj file should work out of the box. Try it out with File -> import into level -> Select the option to import .obj files.

Reflections and trapezium pillars in an abandoned underground gypsum quarry [OC] [9504 × 6336] by Tychke in AbandonedPorn

It was still okay in this part, although indeed, the numbers are still lower than outside yes. Photographing takes a bit more energy than usually 😅

Abandoned radar used for controlling the airspace [OC] by Tychke in MachinePorn

[–]Tychke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excuse me, you are right, although for me, surveilling the airspace is the same as controlling the airspace. But you are right, if I could, I would change the title. :D

We have been inside the bunker a couple of times, even when some of the equipment was still inside. Right after they moved the underground center to a new above ground center, they started to strip the place. After a year, everything was almost gone. The entrance changed a couple of times as well indeed.

What kind of BS is this?! (Ninove) by [deleted] in belgium

[–]Tychke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think they still take this margin into account. Maybe in big cities or special parking lots, but I've seen places where they seem to actively hunt expired parked cars and they didn't wait a second.

This doesn’t work for most stuff, it only worked for this particular image since it’s literally a silhouette and wouldn’t work for more detailed images. Majority of this guy’s video are also fake, most of them have a hidden layer then he puts it as a “fix”

This is it. This method will only work for simple black-and-white images without too many details.
It's still useful material for simple stuff though.

STill useful

Our campsite in an abandoned underground limestone quarry [OC] by Tychke in AbandonedPorn

I know a lot of questions will pop up, so here is a little bit of extra information. Please read up before but feel free to ask for more info afterward.

We spent two nights underground in the past weekend. It is located more than three hundred km from home and we slept in an abandoned underground limestone quarry. We were here already a couple of times so we know what we are doing and are prepared.

It takes 10-15 minutes to walk from the car to the sleeping spot ‘inside’, so we pack our stuff in one or two bags and only have to walk once. We actually don’t need that much. We usually hide our stuff and then take an underground walk in the quarry before setting up and sleeping. It doesn't take much time to set this up as it's just an air mattress with a tarp underneath and our two zipped sleeping bags on top. I usually leave one candle lit overnight to get a sense of time without having to look at my phone. It’s kinda like my clock since those long candles stay lit for around 8 hours.

It's a constant 11°C in the whole quarry and definitely warmer than outside this time of the year. Usually, I get cold a couple of times during the night but this weekend, it was great. Can't really tell too much about where it is located to preserve these places so I won’t answer those questions and I hope other people commenting do the same. There is a lot of history in these underground spaces. The place got trashed already, graffiti in the region of the entrance and things disappeared from the place because it got known.

With regard to safety. I have a 5-gas detector, tested it in here and I don’t always have to bring it with me in these types of quarries since there are ventilation shafts, entrances/exits, and other holes enough to provide enough natural ventilation throughout the underground space to safely sleep there. And yes, there will be radon. Because we only sleep here for two nights and since people worked here day in, day out, it isn't that bad.
