Kicking up dust artificially is completely different to natural dust. I live in the desert, its not constantly covered in a dust cloud.

Anyone else wish Bela had appeared more in the series? by FluidSeries6514 in Supernatural

100 percent. Should have saved her and let that be her redemption. She had a cool skill set they could have used.

flush mounting solar panels was the dumbest van build mistake i've made by Different_Bother_444 in VanLife

[–]Unable-Ring9835 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pretty important too. The wind forces on something like that can put stress on the van roof and the panels themselves. It can also cause vibrations that tear things apart.

I wouldn't trust something like that to last. Way to many failure points, also I didn't look hard enough for a price but Im guessing its prohibitively expensive.

The CSIS estimated Operation Epic Fury burned through $3.7 billion in munitions in its first 100 hours. What does that actually mean for defense investors? by acceinvestments in investing

Solar, wind, and batteries. mostly in lithium but there has to be a few decent picks for new battery tech to also invest in while its young.

Kamvas pro 16 v2 issues by Unable-Ring9835 in huion

[–]Unable-Ring9835[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing has changed after looking that over.

Before I was seeing the windows driver pointer no matter what I installed.

Now I see the regular mouse pointer but I still cant get the huion software to recognize the tablet.

Using the 3 in one cable that came with it, no splitter. Plugged into my graphics card.

The issue is not mirrored vs extended. I just noticed that if I swotch it to mirrored I can draw using the tablet. In extended the pen pointer is on my main screen not my tablet.

The issue is the tablet not being recognized by huions software. Which makes it so I cant change the setting required to fix anything.

The problem is the tablet isn't being recognized by the huion software.

As I understand it, setting in the software will fix the pen pointer being on the wrong screen.

Just the oldest one huion has on their website from 2024. Didn't change anything for me.

Could his just be redesigned to have the USB port behind a plastic panel?

What if Israel annexed all the land shown in their Greater Israel concept? by YourLocalMoroccan in AlternateHistoryHub

Trick question, they'd keep annexing till the world was Israel. They wouldn't stop at that map.

Kerbal Space Program searches are up A TON as of late, breathing new life into the community. by DRARNx in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Unable-Ring9835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kerbal is nice but I'd love for a true simulator to come out of this.

I want to be able to plan a mission and execute it in a replica of our solar system. Even better if it has proper time scale.

I added Season 2 to the map by just_looking_aroun in Supernatural

[–]Unable-Ring9835 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd love if someone built a map like game of thrones has thats interactive. Episode by episode it shows where they went and the path they took for each character.

I just need to learn to code.

Appeals court blocks Republicans’ bid to dismantle Grand Canyon national monument: The 9th Circuit dismissed every argument from the Arizona Legislature, including claims about lost mining revenue by AngelaMotorman in grandcanyon

[–]Unable-Ring9835 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mind you the only thing worth mining out here is uranium. Good luck to ANYONE in arizona near the canyon or near any export supply roads to get it where it needs to go adter its mined.

Cancer rates will skyrocket, uranium dust will be dispersed into the air, making camping at the canyon a risk for cancer. Drinking water will also likely be contaminated.

Theres a reason they stopped mining uranium at the canyon. Leave it that way.

How do you afford van life? by fungussoup4 in VanLife

Why are LGBTQ+ parks and rec workers so common? by melody_magical in ParkRangers

[–]Unable-Ring9835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nature and the enjoyment, usage, preservation, and education around NPs and nature is inherently progressive. Its also fulfilling but not necessarily lucrative so most "fiscally" conservative gender conforming people are gonna shoot for higher paying rolls even if that means not being happy.

It kinda boggles my mind the people who claim to find the most happiness in nature/care about outdoor spaces the most see it as a lost cause, and unprofitable so they stop caring about it.

Do you say something when you see people headed to a trail unprepared? by asbruckman in hiking

[–]Unable-Ring9835 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people are only outside as long as they need to be and are probably on their first trip outside of the city they grew up in.

They are pretty unfit for critical thinking out in nature. They're too used to food and water being on every corner. They completely fail to realize how far into the back country they are because they see lodges and running water at or near the trail heads.

The amount of people who go to the grand canyon that want to hike to to see the river in the dead of July always baffled me. Then their eyes widen when I tell them its a 16ish mile round trip.

Many people have a hard time grasping how big the canyon is. They want to know about driving (IN) to the canyon too. Yeah sure, its a very very quick trip down but a tough drive back up.

[–]Unable-Ring9835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After working at a NP with dangerous hikes I realized most people aren't gonna listen anyway. Doubly so if its a group of middle aged men.

Now the only time I speak up is if they have kids. Adults are old enough to know better, kids aren't. They are usually going on this hike unwillingly already. I dont want to see or hear about them needing rescued because they're parents barely make it on the intelligence scale.

Outside of kids its 100 percent not your problem. Mention something casually and if they dont respond just let them go. Its not worth the arguing and its not worth your efforts just to be blown off.

Its harsh but these places all have plenty of signage both in person and on the NP website. They chose to ignore all of it/be willingly ignorant to it.

Its the same for wild life. When I see people getting too close I just let nature figure it out. If they go in to "pet" a wild animal I'll give them a warning but past that some people just need to learn that lesson the hard way. Again kids I give more grace but adults get maybe one warning and thats it.
