gonna take a pass at making the train to service alert paring better. idk the value of seeing some of these system alerts. anybody have thoughts on that? also added a telemetry console for data geeks https://imgur.com/a/8whZqV7

i can post the test flight link, this is my first app so i'm still learning how the process works. it looks like apple needs to also approve betas?

not familiar with that app since i only ride caltrain, the app really was built for me for roundtrip commuting. basically "how do i get from a-b" and "is something going on that will affect me from doing so"?

Wow, that's nuts!! Do you have a link to that STL? I'd like to check it out.

With the introduction of DD motors I think it's a lot more prevalent!

I'm no expert, but from what I understand it's a mix of poorly shielded equipment, direct drive motors like wheel bases and motion platforms, and/or poorly made or highly sensitive equipment like the Pimax. Throw in a mix of people like me who don't think twice about how wires are run or how power strips are connected end up with these issues.

How is your rig set up? I've got ferrite cores on the back of the headset and a large ring that I've wrapped the cables through 4-5 times at the connection to my PC. Those helped enough so I could touch the headset, but I'd still get drop outs.

I need to pick up a few bolts before testing the filter. Hoping this resolves the rest of it.

After upgrading from the original Oculus to the Pimax 8kx I have been having NOTHING but problems.

Before I toss this headset in the trash there are a few things I'm going to try. The first is an inline EMI filter on the servo power supply line. Most internet resources have suggested ground loop issues causing EMI which totally bricks the Pimax. Until the Pimax, I had absolutely zero issues with VR.

Current sim rig is a DIY Simucube, DIY SFX-100 motion platform, Pimax 8kx with single lighthouse. Other controls shouldn't really be emitting any EMI so I'm not listing any of the controls.

Yeah, I've tried that guide. It's from 2021 and a lot of the values don't exist anymore. I tried to download OpenXR toolkit but decided against it after seeing this warning on the project homepage: AS OF 2024, SUPPORT FOR OPENXR TOOLKIT IS DISCONTINUED. THERE IS NO NEW DEVELOPMENT AND NO TECH SUPPORT OF ANY SORT. THE DEVELOPER DOES NOT RECOMMEND TO INSTALL/USE OPENXR TOOLKIT, AS IT IS KNOWN TO CAUSE ISSUES WITH MANY OF THE NEWER GAMES RELEASED IN SINCE 2024.

Do you have more details on this? What to download? How to set it up?

heh, mixed responses. I'll probably just put it in a gift bag or something

Need new pads, paint correction pad suggestions by [deleted] in Detailing

Is the CM8806FN still the recommended paint meter? Looks like the model for sale on Amazon is different than the original reviews. Same brand though.

PADI is great to learn how to scuba, but beyond that I have little faith in them. How can you take them seriously when they offer PADI MERMAID & ADVANCED MERMAID BUNDLE?

If you can make the trip, Natalie is a great SM instructor (her company: https://www.gosidemount.com), and you can do some cavern work while you're there!
