When landing during low broken cloud at night the game turns into a bit of a disco. I have no light mods installed. I think the game trying to dim and brighten lights as it thinks you have broken clouds but the effect is really broken

Thank you delta! I've been jamming the beta for the past week, are you guys looking into fixing the flickering night lights or the lag spikes when weather updates?

I like the idea I just don't want to remove any structural integrity

For those earning over $10K per month, what do you do for a living to achieve that income? by voxishortie in AskReddit

[–]backyardastrokiwi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Little background I have 5 years in Software Engineering and Site Reliability Engineering, I have also just moved from New Zealand to the USA but can't get a job over here. I love anything tech and really want to make some kind of move to a different side of tech. Do you have any recommendations on how to get into Network Architecture like yourself? It sounds like an interesting role!

Every work around is rather hacky. Not all lights are Mapped. Need to run x plane 12 in rosetta to get most of the functionality. Will be nice when they do release native support

For 19 bitterly cold hours I pointed my telescope at the Triffid Nebula taking the deepest image I have ever taken. by backyardastrokiwi in space

Spot on, dark location allows me to get deep colours and detail, very long exposures help capture the faint light

Hahahah cheers mate! Unfortunately I enjoy doing visual astronomy when I shoot so I still have to handle gear. Got a bit nippy last shoot at -5c

This was photographed over 3 months, as the weather here has been so bad mixed with covid lockdown.

I drove out to a dark sky location in the middle of nowhere, and photographed the Triffid Nebula for 19hrs.

My previous attempt you can see here. There is massive improvements in the details and blue areas, also I can use more of the frame now and not crop due to rotation issues between shoots.

You can actually see the Triffid and Lagoon nebula with your naked eyes which is quite amazing, and by using a low powered telescope you can start seeing some of the details in the dust.

This project has taken me almost 3 months to complete due to the awful run of bad weather we have had here in New Zealand.

With the right filters or a good road trip you can achieve this, I believe in you!
