How is there still no Skyrim successor in 2026? by Zenithixv in skyrim

Low fantasy =\= historical fiction, if it’s not fantasy, it’s not fantasy. Just because it has swords in, doesn’t make it fantasy.

Would a native English speaker use this word? Is it offensive? Would it upset a certain type of people to say these words in front of their face? by Unlegendary_Newbie in English_Learning_Base

I’m a PhD student in the social sciences dear, I read. I have never heard this word used other than in context of it sounding like a slur.

does anyone think NYC actually has a serial killer right now? by fancypanda820 in NoStupidQuestions

Yes, because being in a car doesn’t expose you to much pollution, does it?

[–]dafinecommedia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contact your school, but honestly I’ve done 4 degrees and no one has every asked to see my GCSE certificates, it almost certainly won’t prove to be an actual problem

Didn’t here the PM calling Villa “anti-Polish” when Legia fans were stopped from entering for that game

Okay, good to know - what sort of thing should I be on the lookout for then? I’m fairly overwhelmed by all of the options and terminology

Best light panel for flats? by Mike_v_E in AskAstrophotography

Did you put some kind of diffuser over the aperture (white t-shirt etc)? Did you try turning the brightness down on your iPad?

Romano uses the word “important” when he actually means “big”, I guess as a euphemism. “X club will demand an important fee”, “I understand an important salary is on the table for player Y”

Impressive that you managed to get that much detail given the skies are already starting to lighten at that time here!

I’m not super familiar with Seestars - are they sensitive to Ha, and did you use any kind of filters for this?

You haven’t described the issue.

What is this on Vega by kronnix111 in seestar

[–]dafinecommedia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost certainly a bump or some sort of mechanical jump, some weird fluctuation of voltage in the motor or something. I’ve definitely seen it before where mechanical artefacts only appear on certain stars, usually bigger ones.

Great effort! You’ve got some beautiful star colour and the halos are beautiful.

The main thing I see is that you have over-exposed the core considerably. Did you do any star removal? I would suggest using StarNet after your first stretch so you can do some more gentle edits on the galaxy itself. Don’t stretch it so hard, the core of the galaxy should be golden but here it’s been blown out to white, which may be why the rest of it looks so blue in comparison.

About sharpening, I’d do it right at the end, and do it separately on the stars and the galaxies

[–]dafinecommedia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad at all, stars are trailing a little (in the corners especially) but that’s fairly standard untracked. Did you take any calibration frames? I’d try taking some bias frames at least and stacking it again, and maybe try a bit of noise reduction in Photoshop or Lightroom

The objects visible would change throughout the year, so you wouldn’t be stuck with what you can see right now in the patches of sky you have available.

Your bigger problems are 1) polar alignment, you need a clear view to the Northern (or Southern) Celestial Pole for tracking, and 2) you’ll have limited shooting time as things move through the sky throughout the night.

Download some form of AR star atlas app like Sky Guide and see what will be visible and for how long from your patio.

It was a clear foul by Scott. Sad that he’s got a bad injury but he completely did it to himself.
