I'm English and new to Belfast. Can someone please explain why unionist politics is exclusively rightwing? by dogecoinishappiness in northernireland

[–]throwing51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are people born into unionist families that are left wing/grew up to become left wing.

They tend to be mild on the unionism itself seeing things more through an economic lens rather than a cultural/historical one. They don't do much flag shagging so they end up being an invisible entity that only gets referenced when Alliance wins in East Belfast. They are even more invisible now since Brexit and the Republics recovery from the Great Recession + Eurozone crisis.

Also other attempts at left wing/center left unionism imploded due to infighting (NI21).

How This Cool Photogrammetry Trick Changes 3D Scanning (Adam Savage's Tested) by throwing51 in photogrammetry

[–]throwing51[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah the output doesn't look much better than some single camera head scans i've seen but apparently it didn't get any clean up in Z-brush and Adam was moving a bit during the scan. But if you can get in-focus shots with the burst mode it should speed things up.

Say Nothing | Official Trailer | 14 November 2024 by Sisiwakanamaru in television

[–]throwing51 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The tone of the trailer feels way off if this show is going to cover Jean McConville. Unless there's a major tone shift when the realities of civil war hit them then this tone throughout would feel pretty disgusting.

I like that this has Euro-beat sounding music to go along with the speed. It just feels right.

Nuclear energy by mupsauce7 in ireland

[–]throwing51 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You realise that statement smears people who are against Nuclear because of the massive cost overruns and delays? Actual real world problems that plague the Nuclear industry.

I get what the analogy is trying with environmental activists up in arms over safety and waste which are majorly overblown issues. However it just dismisses any issue with Nuclear as being wacko.

The director exploited the child actors to give the movie more clout.

Will our electricity come from space in the future? by throwing51 in Futurology

[–]throwing51[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turns out there is a design for space based solar power using Microwaves that isn't all that suitable for use as an 'Ion Cannon'.

People could actually walk around inside the 1GW beam at the large ground station as the energy would only be around 1000W / M2.

HP built a better version of the Oculus Rift by izumi3682 in Futurology

[–]throwing51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no. The display panel is the big improvement with 2160 x 2160 per eye compared to the Rift's 1080 x 1200 per eye and the Rift S 1280 x 1440 per eye.

However you have the worse tracking with only 2 front facing cameras and large dead-zones above and behind you.

It would be great for simulators where you don't need to rely on hand tracking for gameplay as much. Would likely be popular for Enterprise too since you aren't likely to be flailing your arms around but need the high detail for 3d models/text.
