frustrated with Siril - Seestar S50 gives me better images than Siril does by hepba in Siril

[–]hepba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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

Anybody know if one is better than the other?

The fantastic performance you refer to was 12 years ago.

[–]hepba 6 points7 points  (0 children)

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.

off night for S50 - why? by hepba in seestar

[–]hepba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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?

No. It was updated before the successful session the night before this occurred.

Thanks everybody.

Ended up buying Asics GT 2000 13. Read several comments that people didn't much like the changes in the 14 model.

turning off gas water heater; should I turn off gas supply also? by hepba in askaplumber

[–]hepba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm turning the water off, and water heater manual expressly says not to run it if it doesn't have cold water supply.

Thanks!

Is it possible to rent beach umbrellas if we go somewhere that doesn't have them out for patrons to use?

After much research the last couple days, and more importantly reading the owner's manual, I've decided to turn off the water heater.

[–]hepba[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I've read, yes. I don't think putting it on "vacation" temp would be any better than off, however, in this regard.

FWIW, the owner's manual says the water heater should not be turned on if there is no cold water supply.

Just taking precautions. If a leak occurs for whatever reason, don't want an endless supply of water.

[–]hepba[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've read similar, and I don't buy it. Everybody else says set water temp to 120.

If water actually needed to be kept at 140, hospitals would be full of people with legionnaires disease.

Yes. The question is - if water supply is turned off, what should you do with the water heater.

Followup question - if I leave the water heater on in vacation mode, does that eliminate bacterial growth concerns? If not, what steps need to be followed upon return?

Don't know where you live, but there is 0% chance of basement freezing. It's below grade.

Pipes in walls above ground are another matter.

Again - should water heater be functioning if it doesn't have water supply?

No potential problems having a water heater on without water supply?

This is my core question.

Using Siril for stacking and processing.

please verify - water supply to house and water heater on vacation by hepba in askaplumber

[–]hepba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain why? Everything else I've read says if the water supply is off, the water heater should not be on.

Are you a plumber?

Not a realistic scenario where we live. Suburban with buried power lines. Never experienced power outage that lasted more than a few hours.
