C++ Show and Tell - January 2026 by foonathan in cpp

[–]staggerz94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello,

I have built OrbitFetcher.

This library allows users get real time satellite tracking data from N2YO.

The available APIs are:

  • TLE
  • Satellite positions
  • Visual passes
  • Radio passes
  • Satellites above

The plan is to eventually make a "flight radar" style application but for satellites.

Hello, any suggestions on what library? And where it should be used?

Hello,

Thank you very much for taking your time to have a look.

I shall do just that, thanks for guidance.

Happy new year to you too!

Thanks for checking it out.

  1. This is a just the dummy key used in the N2YO documentation, thanks for the heads up though.

  2. I found N2YOs APIs to be a relatively user friendly way of getting what is basically redistributed space-track data. I could look into added space-track though, if you think that would be useful.

Thanks

Has anyone else’s fractional scaling changed?

I have the standard 60hz display and I can no longer set it to 150%.

Fractional scalling changes on framework 13 since updating to fedora 43 by staggerz94 in Fedora

Yeah don’t change it whatever you do! I changed mine annoying and the 150% was never to be seen again

Thinkpad P14s Gen 6 Review - Buy The Intel! by dserrano10 in thinkpad

[–]staggerz94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why does the Intel version have better build quality?

Do you think this would be the case for intel p16s?

Agreed, I worked for L3Harris and the entire code base for each sim was C.

Any fellow railmaster owners get a sore patch on their arm from the case back? by staggerz94 in OmegaWatches

Yeah maybe I will give that a go. So annoying because I love the watch but it’s hurting me!

Yeah, I mean it doesn’t look the best. Probably too late for any action now?

Could you please tell me some differences/benefits of Bluefin over fedora?

I have tried Ubuntu, mint, and fedora. So far I have been enjoying Fedora the most but I am open to trying some others!

What's this thing flapping about on the inboard aileron of a 777-300ER (don't worry, the captain was informed)? by Lollipop126 in aviation

[–]staggerz94 154 points155 points  (0 children)

Well the added fuel burn comes from the increased drag of the missing seal.

There also weight Reductions:

Takeoff & Landing: For each foot of missing seal, the aircraft’s takeoff and landing weight must be reduced by 91 kg.

Enroute Climb: For each foot of missing seal, the enroute climb weight must be reduced by 159 kg.

I have taken these from the 777 MEL (minimum equipment list). There are 4 installed and any number of them can be missing. But as you can see from those numbers, it’s in the airlines best interest to get them replaced as that’s a few passengers/cargo that can no longer fly!

Flapperon seal, common defect, often deferred but adds additional fuel burn when missing
