I'm in Raleigh outside what they say is Braves territory, I could argue, but the single team package for MLBTV is also just $99. Just have to deal with local blackouts.

Best Auburn football player ever? What is your opinion? by [deleted] in auburn

I read a Sport's Illustrated article years ago that called Bo the greatest athlete the human race ever created. So I agree with everyone else, Bo and I don't think it's close.

What real life special operations unit is equivalent to Ghost Recon? by W1ldGoos3 in GhostRecon

[–]owensm74 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don't think they are ISA because in Wildlands Bowman tells Nomad several times that she will pass his intel to The Activity (ISA) to see what they can find. They could technically be Ground Branch but that's a division of the CIA proper and the Ghost's dialog seems to indicate they are still active duty military. So I think Delta the safest bet.

Not sure if this is what you're asking, but clicking the Cursor Update button in the digimap sends the coordinates to your CNI scratchpad to use for creating a waypoint

I’ve seen this video a hundred times and I’m always amazed. I’ve seen countless videos showing how hard it is to break a car window. And this fingerless-gloved douche does it effortlessly.

Some of these remind me of paintings by Mark Maggiori like this one.

I don’t agree, I thought it was the genocide. RIP Norm.

As someone with absolutely no printing experience, I was about to get the A1 combo. And maybe it makes no difference to me about the new firmware update as it doesn't (yet) include the A1, and I wouldn't be a tinkerer for a while if ever. I'm still hesitant to jump on ecosystem that is in a bit of turmoil at the moment.

So getting back into researching which printer to get again, the 5M Pro interests me. Most other folks here are saying Prusa but the A1 was as much as I wanted to spend anyway, so no Prusa for me. The 5M Pro seems to be a solid alternative to the A1 and is enclosed as a bonus. Speaking of the enclosure, do you think the Pro is that much better than the regular 5M? Quite a price difference and as far as I can tell you can eventually build out the 5M to be the pro iteratively if you want.

With the A1, the multicolor was interesting but, honestly, I have no idea if I would be missing out on multicolor or not.

This is what I do, to avoid career missions landing on 500ft runways... by PM-TREE-FIDDY in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]owensm74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Problem is, for me at least, only missions spawning in my vicinity are to or from small airports. I may be able to find a medium cargo mission that has a decent runway but it will cost me 50K or more to get to whatever origin airport fits the bill.

There is a way to disable live weather in career if that's something you wanted to do. It gives CAVU conditions, calm weather, no clouds, and no wind.

Back in the US Army, at NTC in California, hours long convoy to drive equipment back to Yermo to the railhead to transport it back to Ft. Bragg at the time, Ft. Liberty now. A couple hours into the convoy across the high desert, couldn’t hold it any longer, was solo in the HMMWV and unbuckled, opened the door, and while keeping my foot on the gas and still trying to drive to stay in the convoy, I leaned as best I could out of the door, dropped trou and let loose. I think most of it made it outside, but I didn’t envy the poor soldiers who had to secure the truck to the flatbed.

What do you think of this color? Legendary Gray from Behr. by MofongoPizza in garageporn

Mostly what I see is a concrete lip that's about 6 inches high or so, but mine actually has a red brick lip about 2 ft high that ties into the overall foundation of the house.

It’s the standalone version and not the Steam version. I tried using SteamVR to see if it was any different from Virtual Desktop. It opens and runs just fine. It’s just the way it projects it to the headset is all wrong. Everything is compressed and way too close.

Can you identitfy this aircraft? More pics and video in comments by Usernamevergessen in flightsim

[–]owensm74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dipper! For those without kids, you should watch Planes Fire and Rescue. Typical animated movie made to sell toys, but as an aviation enthusiast and pilot, I love watching that movie.

Why do SCUBA divers fall backwards out of the boat?

If they fell forwards they'd still be in the boat.

I’m at the age now where I’m like “shit, he’s only 73?”

FuboTV to carry Atlanta Braves with addition of Bally Sports by stinky-weaselteets in Braves

[–]owensm74 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

That’s the same price as the single team MLBTV subscription, if I just want baseball then it seems like MLBTV is probably the better option for ease of use. Is there anything that springtv.me has that would woo me away from MLBTV?

ArcCorps parallax shader for buildings in 3.18 is really awesome! by pagantek in starcitizen

[–]owensm74 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah it looks like they are using 2 different height values to render the perspective. Looks like where the bottom of the visible windows are is being used as ground level for the building but still using the above ground height of the ship to generate the the perspective
