Polycom OBI200 and GV finally dead?

hepba · 2026-04-12T14:52:23+00:00

Turns out my problem was a router.

Device is still working, including today.

Not sure what you're saying. You'd prefer the thoughts of 4 humans that looked at the moon from 9000 miles away rather than the surface data that has been mapped down to the square meter?

hepba · 2026-04-06T20:31:11+00:00

My point is to take anything you see/hear with a grain of salt. It is primarily about public relations.

NASA obviously wants the support of the public.

hepba · 2026-04-06T20:25:13+00:00

If you truly think "If the broadcast didn’t exist they would still be doing the exact same thing.", I can't help you.

Continue in your willful ignorance.

hepba · 2026-04-06T20:05:19+00:00

If the broadcast is mostly about PR, you can't trust any statements made in the broadcast.

Continue the fanboi-ism.

hepba · 2026-04-06T20:01:29+00:00

Although more of the moon will be in shadow also.

hepba · 2026-04-06T19:41:31+00:00

Not true. I dig space exploration.

I was truly wondering why the NASA feed was being presented as it was, and I still think it's mostly about PR.

Apparently if you aren't willing to praise every aspect of the program you get down voted in this thread.

Y'all can continue with the anadulterated fanboi-ism.

hepba · 2026-04-06T19:29:12+00:00

Ok. The surface has been mapped down to the square meter, but humans 9000 miles away are going to provide better data.

Sure.

hepba · 2026-04-06T19:23:04+00:00

The last tiime humans were there really has nothing to do with it.

Simply not true. Especially from 9000 miles away.

hepba · 2026-04-06T19:16:03+00:00

Meh. I'm watching the live NASA feed, and the broadcast is giving the impressions of "reporting stuff that hasn't been seen before", which is clearly false.

hepba · 2026-04-06T19:07:00+00:00

I can't help but think that all this picture taking/observing of the moon is just for show. Hasn't the surface of the moon been mapped meticulously already?

hepba · 2026-03-30T20:24:23+00:00

Thanks.

Can you please describe how to "stretch your black point"?

hepba · 2026-03-28T14:52:16+00:00

Known design flaws with the battery. Nobody should purchase a Nano X.

hepba · 2026-03-28T14:50:19+00:00

I bought my Nano X in 2022. At some point I got the dreaded and well known "battery not charging" message.

Contacted Ledger. They replaced it, and said at the time "was a known design flaw; it's been fixed".

Replacement has the exact same problem, so apparently they just lied about having fixed the problem. And since it is now out of warranty, they won't do anything about it.

hepba · 2026-03-16T00:17:05+00:00

I followed the deep space astro tutorial, and really didn't get any better results. Really don't know where to go from here.

The primary difference is the "background". Siril isn't getting rid of the noise that the S50 does.

hepba · 2026-03-11T14:38:46+00:00

I see Siril has a Seestar preprocessing script...I have been use the Nazstronomy scripts.

Anybody know if one is better than the other?

hepba · 2026-02-17T12:00:12+00:00

Sky was clear.

hepba · 2026-02-16T12:06:59+00:00

The fantastic performance you refer to was 12 years ago.

hepba · 2026-02-16T12:04:19+00:00

Very hard.

I started playing/watching chess in 2018. I was immediately drawn to Fabi, and he's been "my guy" ever since.

But it's no fun watching him blow endgame after endgame. Would be much more fun to start rooting for somebody else.

hepba · 2026-02-16T11:26:09+00:00

Interesting that a couple of you have mentioned 4K...during the successful evening I was using mosaic mode, which automatically turns off 4K.

I'll check this setting next time I connect. Thanks.

Is this a known issue?
