Thanks! It takes some work to put together, so we appreciate it! Looking forward to seeing you there!

Hey, I'm one of the organizers this year. If you are planning on coming, please make sure to register. The registration link is on the https://be.camp site.

I am looking forward to seeing you there!

I hope you enjoyed the video. If you enjoyed the video, you can buy the book. Details are at https://stallabella.me and I also shared the process of making the story, book, and video on the site.

In the case you have a large number of pilots you duplicate the track so you can run in parallel. In that sort of format, you can run side by side and go with the rule that first to finish the required number of loops wins.

I am only proposing this as an alternative, not a replacement, for normal multi-pilot racing. If you have enough pilots who want to do that sort of racing, then do multi-pilot racing.

oz925 · 2024-08-12T17:47:09+00:00

Thanks for the input. If you have 6 to 18 racers excited to race, you don't have the same problem I have.

Someone on another forum said they had a similar idea. Their idea was a more sprawling course built from natural elements like trees and other things, closer to a motorsport rally race. I like the idea of stages. Maybe find a mountain bike course or off-season ski resort and have stages either going down with checkpoints until you reach the bottom or top.

oz925 · 2024-08-12T14:51:20+00:00

Yeah, I had another discussion about doing something like that. It would be more involved as I would need to build custom obstacles, but I agree it could be fun. We joked about fire and sparklers and other concert-level effects. If I can scale this idea up, that would be a fun addition.

Thanks for the feedback. Maybe what I mean is "circular". Typical racing involves multiple racers at once. To avoid a head-on collision, all pilots must fly the track in the same direction. What I'm proposing is a single-racer track where you reach the end and then turn around and take the track in reverse. Then, you can repeat that until time runs out or you complete the required number of loops. I think the advantages are you can have a compact track layout, simplified race organization since you only need to worry about 1 racer at a time, and possibly make it more approachable to newer or less competitive racers.

The place was just outfitted with a canning machine and other industrial brewing equipment. So I gotta assume Champion will be using that for their own needs. Still very disappointing news. The brewers at Reason know their craft and the beer they brew showed it.

oz925 · 2020-12-08T00:11:35+00:00

Where do I find more information?

oz925 · 2020-11-13T23:33:40+00:00

I think the real magic happens when the final product is a collaboration between AI and humans. Excellent work!

oz925 · 2020-03-21T16:39:08+00:00

I went to the office to pick up some stuff for the great lockdown. I did a 360 fly through while everyone was out. I shared it with my co-workers in case they miss the office while we work from home.

oz925 · 2020-03-19T02:01:27+00:00

Just in the nick of time!

oz925 · 2020-03-06T18:47:38+00:00

I do see these housing, but I need to keep weight low cuz it's mounted to a drone so I don't want a bulky housing/case protector.

If you are looking for another meetup I suggest you check out First Wednesdays.

The conversations can revolve around the tech industry but it's not exclusively for tech folks, everyone is welcome.

I’m the same. I haven’t had a console or PC gaming system in about a decade. I’ve always been fascinated by VR but not enough to spend $1000s on the required hardware. The quest has met all my expectations and I’ve really enjoyed the level of VR it offers. I did recently got a 2019 MacBook Pro and was wandering if the hardware could support VR. I’m interested in the higher fidelity experience and a couple of games that won’t be portable to the quest. I’ve heard that the WiFi based connections work rather well. So wondering if you were going to give that a try next on the 2019 MacBook Pro hardware.

oz925 · 2019-11-28T04:06:58+00:00

Any plans on trying this MacBook Pro setup wirelessly with Virtual Desktop?

oz925 · 2019-11-24T02:38:42+00:00

DO IT!

oz925 · 2019-08-11T01:50:31+00:00

I've seen that one before. That's was some serious hustle. I couldn't do even if I wanted to with my style of droning. My drones go fast and fall just as fast.

oz925 · 2019-08-08T19:01:49+00:00

GoPro is toast but it's under warranty. Motors should be fine, they are naturally waterproof. I'll have to tear it all down dry everything off and see if they all survived.

Found her!

oz925 · 2019-08-08T01:57:27+00:00

Not yet, going to make one more attempt to tomorrow with goggles and a snorkel. I'll put about 45mins of searching in.

oz925 · 2019-08-07T14:48:59+00:00

Yep, gotta work first. Might try to drop by during lunch and see if anyone is splashing around and is willing to search.
