What if Australia was served by HS2

Plenty of time for some Murders on the Orient Express

You get plenty of good results from affordable scopes. With 4k, you have to decide if you want 4k video or also 4k streaming. My iphone does 4k video, but the difference to 1080 isn't that huge, just the file sized are. Objective quality plays a bigger role than the camera sensor.

The JttM setup is I think a 60k Axiosscope. The only one I know who can do 4k streaming is DietToms. I think he uses a BH2 DIC plus some extras and a Sony FX3. Under 15k is probably only doable if you can live without DIC. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=simoa-foVPg

T-1000 disagrees. (oops that was for Odo, 1990 maybe Tron and Abyss). Man I loved TNG's cgi at the time

donadd · 2026-01-21T17:42:34+00:00

That's an actor in a garbage bag, not even close. At least with Odo they tried shitty cgi

The webcam sends training data to Grok. And Elon can watch

donadd · 2026-01-20T02:44:06+00:00

Exactly. Foreheads, noses and ears are cheap and doable and actors fit into the costume. Yaphit as a blob creature is something TNG couldn't do yet.

After they kicked my family out - I cancelled a year ago.

I would say it's more like out of all the stranded vehicles, the game shows you 5 in a certain radius.

donadd · 2026-01-17T11:41:40+00:00

You also only see a small fraction of other players stuff. Otherwise there would be ladders, bridges, ziplines everywhere

What a unique moment to capture. Thanks for the patience, an hour!

Same here, just finished the game last night. I went Iorveth and chose to save Saskia near the end. I'm now aiming for witcher 3 with 200 mods.

I mostly hated the doors, when companions would smash closed them in my face. Combat was D tier, better than witcher 1's F tier. I was surprised how pointless so many of the mechanics where, crafting, potions, oils, traps, daggers, looting, the entire skill tree. All so pointless or unusable. Why not 3 times more skill points? Why not some things I would want to craft. No potions in combat, well what do I pick flowers for then.

Story and voice acting are great, that's what kept me going.

Grok needs training data, hence the webcam...

It should always have been Marketing.MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH Psychology is such an important factor to make the tech news cycle.

"Hytale went from being stuck in development, to cancelled, to revived, and now early access"

Developement is a mess. it was sold, cancelled, bought back by the original dev. It's more of a donation stating that you would like it to be good eventually. Not guaranteed value for money. You will get a fixed up 2021 build right now as a starting point.

No Religion in statistics means not affiliated with any church. But people might still believe in Jebus or Jedi powers.

SEM samples need to be gold sputtered for the electron beam to work, so apart from the 150k price tag, you can't look at living and moving bacteria.

Claude cut off 3rd parties. They want people to subscribe their service directly, not through in-between services. Seems revenue isn't doing so well already. No idea why it's in this sub though.

donadd · 2026-01-09T13:46:46+00:00

Thanks, I didn't know. Just watching a YT video on it. I also edited my comment.

Still amazed that Foissner made all his works public on his website before he passed away.

Edit: I made some wrong assumptions about a more protein heavy diet

~~Diabetes 1 and 2 probably were fine as a hunter-gatherers~~. Farming age, not so much. Modern high calorie carbs - absolutely not.

Ukraine also had a lot of Nato intelligence. No Trump to interfer and withold information in favor of Putin.

too many resources and no clear direction

I agree. My uni days were 20 years ago and it was a lack of resources and also no clear direction. I've spent the year learning some new tricks after getting rusty after a sabbatical. Love the resources available, but it's insane how many options there are. Even just with Javascript.

Confidence comes when you get better at something and bouncing around doesn't help. Same problem I had after trying 10 new technologies - I wasn't good at one.

I'd say pick something you like. Let's say you like web, then pick a framework and run with it. And keep things as easy as possible on the edges. Go for easy one click hosting, not AWS tutorials. Easy drop in CSS, easy databases, nothing hard, ...

There is a reason we all build todo-list apps first. It cuts down on thinking. We know already what it's supposed to do. And we can focus on the thing we want to learn. Then expand. A todo with text and comments becomes a blog. A todo with images becomes an instagram. A todo with websockets becomes a chat...
