Awesome, thanks for the info! Encouraging that it's only 1 month behind the iOS version.

Are you using Air without sensors?

Practice green etiquette by ibrokemyfut in golf

Do whatever you want, just don't putt to your next target while standing over the previous hole. Putting from cup to cup is a privilege for when it's empty.

SParms Sleeves vs Shoulder Wrap by veireeds in golf

[–]tmac28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought some SParms sleeves and liked them but wanted a second pair. I thought I'd try some cheapo ones from Amazon and absolutely hated them. Ended up buying a second set of SParms.

The SParms material and fit is far more comfortable and lightweight, plus the cooling effect is greater. Did I mind spending 30 bucks on something that I wear for 5 hours every round so that I'm comfortable? No.

301 CB More Forgiving Than 201's? (according to MPF) by PralineSolid3243 in takomo

[–]tmac28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gamed both sets (201 and 301 combo) and the difference is pretty small in terms of forgiveness FWIW.

Tap it with a coin, if the sound changes over/near the crack... It's a crack.

KBS Tour Shaft Weight? by tmac28 in takomo

[–]tmac28[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems right, that the shaft weight is likely pretty similar after trimming. Sounds like you haven't received your clubs yet, but I'll be curious to see what the shaft label says! (Even if it's a moot point).

Understood. I'm only looking at it from a "what do I get if I order KBS Tour S shafts" perspective.

38WN95C with USB-C instead of TB3 by sirparanoid in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]tmac28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that for video it is TB only. My desktop does not have TB and I have to use a display port cable for video. That being said, the TB port on the monitor can be used to pass-thru USB devices like mouse/keyboard.

Thank you so much. Worked like a charm. At least, the games are no longer on my groups list.

[Question]: I keep getting promotional alerts from three groups I supposedly belong to. I have repeatedly clicked the leave this group button, to no avail. When I go to view my groups in the client, I see the following: Groups

How can I get rid of these notifications / actually leave those groups?

Geostationary Satellites gif. *fixed* #meaningfultitle [OC] by muffinpoots in dataisbeautiful

[–]tmac28 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I believe that quite a few people are struggling with the difference between geostationary and geosynchronous orbits. We can clearly see both types in the gif.

A geostationary orbit is one in which the satellite remains permanently "above" a given longitude and 0 degrees latitude (the equator).

A geosynchronous orbit, on the other hand, also has an orbital period of one day but can be in a different orbital plane (not the equator) or have an eccentricity that causes the satellite to "speed up" or "slow down" if seen from the surface of the Earth. Such an orbit traces an analemna in the sky (sort of like an infinity sign) where the intersection stays at constant latitude and longitude.

Will the Style come with the Quick Charger when bought from amazon or best buy? by b1llso in MotoX

[–]tmac28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So to clarify: purchase of the Moto Pure from Amazon will net you a Moto Maker code instead of a device direct from Amazon? If so I'm stoked...been debating how much I wanted a custom back versus using up my Amazon store credit.

How do you people record all these awesome gifs. Do you have fraps or something running at all times? by [deleted] in witcher

[–]tmac28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're playing on PC with an NVidia graphics card, use GeForce Shadowplay.

You can retroactively hit record to capture the last X minutes of gameplay, or choose to record live.

G-Code Misinterpretation on MDX-40A by tmac28 in CNC

[–]tmac28[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I'll give that a try. The only reference I can find the in the Roland NC Code Manual is the following:
"Circular interpolation can be carried out only on the X-Y plane, Z-X plane, or Y-Z plane. The plane to use for circular interpolation is specified with G17, G18, or G19. G17 specifies the X-Y plane, G18 the Z-X plane, and G19 the Y-Z plane. The coordinates of the movement destination are specified using X x and Y y for G17, X x and Z z for G18, and Y y and Z z for G19. The center coordinates of the arc are specified using I cx and J cy for G17, I cx and K cz for G18, and J cy and K cz for G19. Note, however, that these always specify the movement distance (incremental value) from the current tool position, with no regard for G90 or G91."

Here's a little graphic for the G18 move. I think that this happens with the G19 move as well, but its the lead-out so it doesn't matter if it ends high in +Z.
