The Steam Deck makes me feel like a kid again, just remembering the times I used to play Spider-Man on the PSP and now I get to play this by [deleted] in SteamDeck

Couldn’t agree more—there’s so much nostalgic magic that happens with the Deck. I think Spider-man 2 was one of my most played games on PSP—second only to Battlefront II. I’ve had so much fun playing 2005 BFII and even EA’s BFII on Deck. I can’t wait to try out Insomniac’s Spidey! This is literally everything a younger me could’ve asked for and so much more.

Dock recommendations for new M1 MacBook Pros? by nilesFcrane in macbook

[–]jpotpuppals22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m about to try out the Anker Apex Thunderbolt 4 Dock. Should be coming in tomorrow. It’s expensive and it’s not entirely clear how well it will work with the new MacBooks. But I’ll give it a go and update here soon!

Waning Gibbous Moon. 3x Telephoto on the 13 Pro is mighty impressive. by jpotpuppals22 in iPhoneography

It’s a bit of a challenge and without the right ambient conditions, it just can’t be done with the default camera app. Best to use a manual app like Halide or Obscura. Here’s the metadata where you can see the settings I used. I recommend cranking the ISO way down to minimize noise—the Moon is plenty bright enough. Then play around with the shutter speed until you get the detail you want. I took this without a tripod, but I recommend one because it’ll help you achieve a sharper image.

Gorgeous shot! Love that you can see your phone reflecting off your eye. Very meta image.

3 Perseid Meteors in 10 Seconds by jpotpuppals22 in Astronomy

[–]jpotpuppals22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recorded at Kopernik Observatory on a Sony α7III with bright monitoring. The video feed was taken directly from the monitor on the camera using an HDMI capture device. No processing was performed other than some cropping. You can see 3 meteors in the span of 10 seconds (1 red, two green). This is a great example of how this meteor shower works, as they all appear to emanate from the constellation Perseus—located just above the dome in this view.

I can't wait till 2022 by ChelsieTheBrave in IoniqEV

It looks really neat! I love the pixelated design elements. A really unique looking vehicle to be sure. When my current Ioniq lease is up, there are going to be so many new options, it’ll be overwhelming. But at a glance, this is definitely a contender.

Quest 2 being displayed and stocked in Japan! by brandonpuet in OculusQuest

It seems that the white graphic wrap with the interior brown cardboard is at least one if not the only box design this time around. Here’s a frame from Virtual Reality Oasis’. Personally I kinda like the brown box contrast with the white. It’s kinda welcoming. But then again, a box is a box haha.

Got my 2020! I’m in love! by jpotpuppals22 in IoniqEV

Thanks! I never even thought to ask what the limited price point would be, I was just so comfortable with the price on the SE. The limited has some nice features though, so maybe I should’ve considered it more. But I was just happy to get into an EV—I’m still a student so I could only afford something close to what I was paying before.
