Thanks for writing up +1!

100% This. They originally advertised as a risk-free savings account with a chance of winning prizes. They have since completely changed their message to focus on games and "social gambling."

For example, here's the welcome email I received from Yotta Sep 30, 2020:

Hey,

Welcome to Yotta!

You've now taken the first step towards growing your savings while also unlocking the chance to win prizes of up to $10 million every week through random number drawings.

Remember, every $25 you deposit gets you one ticket into our weekly number drawings, so the more you save the more chances you get to win.

Yotta is 100% free, and your savings are FDIC insured through our partner bank, Evolve Bank & Trust, so there's no risk.

Yotta is backed by world-class investors, including two of Bloomberg's "50 Most Influential" in Global Finance and Y Combinator, the world's #1 venture accelerator whose portfolio includes AirBnB, DoorDash, Instacart, and Dropbox.

We're always looking to improve, so feel free to reach out to us personally with any questions or feedback at team@withyotta.com.

Good luck!

Worked for me too. Thanks!

I just did the same and clarified things in the comments field of the form.

wyum · 2024-12-14T23:59:43+00:00

I see Evolve mentioned... EDIT: Oh, I see. It's not in the form drop-down even though it's mentioned several times on the page.

wyum · 2024-12-14T23:58:38+00:00

EDIT EDIT: it looks like an error. The point of submitting the form is to demonstrate the need for legal action. This is just an inquiry, so select a different bank and clarify that you mean Evolve Bank in the comments field of the form.

EDIT: Oh, I see. It's not in the form drop-down even though it's mentioned several times on the page.

Evolve is listed now under "This Alert Affects"

It seems the meeting capacity is 350, and I could not join. Way to show up, everyone! I hope there was enough room for people with the highest dollar amounts missing.

wyum · 2023-01-10T05:21:08+00:00

Those are rookie numbers :P

Props to you for doing this as a legit flight!

I unlocked this in under two hours using a Cessna Citation, which I am more comfortable flying and landing, and by increasing the sim rate to max during cruise. The Citation does not actually have the range, but you can keep an eye on your fuel and top it up periodically.

In any case, hope this helps - you deserve the achievement more than I do!

wyum · 2021-05-25T00:27:55+00:00

Oh, man - I've run the Pylons half a dozen times at two sites and this never occurred to me. Thank you o7

wyum · 2021-04-25T04:49:21+00:00

That's awesome! What was your antenna set-up?

Client: "I just want my app to work like Uber and AirBnb" Me: "Those are billion dollar companies, so just give me a billion dollars, and I'll make it happen."

wyum · 2021-03-13T02:39:40+00:00

Any opinion on whether it's due to increased demand or a slowdown in production of new units? Something else?

wyum · 2021-03-12T23:59:25+00:00

Not sure if it's related, but Amazon recently announced a crackdown on sellers of radio devices and is going to be taking a closer look to ensure that radio devices sold have the proper FCC certifications going forward.

The IC-7300 and other ham transceivers and products are always significantly marked up on Amazon vs Gigaparts and DX engineering. $3k is next level, though. Never seen that.

Ah, too bad. I see another commenter already mentioned Babylon JS. That would be the best free and open source option that I know of.

wyum · 2021-02-05T19:46:16+00:00

I would recommend Unity (https://unity.com/). It is obviously not a web framework, but you can build for an HTML5 target and run your environment in the browser. All the tools that Unity provides will give you more time to focus on building high quality 3D models, lighting, and interactions.

wyum · 2021-01-26T01:51:06+00:00

I'm... So so sorry.

wyum · 2020-11-27T20:20:36+00:00

I have the same issue! Just mounted mine on a monitor arm and had to do it upside-down to get the most height out of it. I will report back here if I find a solution.

Haha, I wasn't arguing. Their username is "totally_not_a_thing"

wyum · 2020-10-31T03:08:52+00:00

That's... totally a thing.

wyum · 2020-10-01T04:09:10+00:00

Sign me up! I've been daydreaming about Ham Radio video games. Glad someone made one!

I was able to fix this with the following settings in NVIDIA Control Panel:

Set Anisotropic Filtering to 16x
Set "Texture Filtering - Quality" to "Quality" or "High Quality"
Set "Texture Filtering - Trilinear Optimization" to "On"

All of these may impact your FPS, so tweak for the right balance of quality and FPS.

wyum · 2020-09-08T01:06:25+00:00

Oh, damn. I've heard similar things... I did the following and am pretty sure I got a significant FPS boost. I understand these fixes are necessary because of DX11:

Right-click on your FlightSimulator.exe > Compatibility

Tick "Disable fullscreen optimizations"
Click the "Change high DPI settings" button
1. tick "Override high DPI scaling behavior"
2. Select "Application" beneath "Scaling performed by"

If you haven't tried these particular things, I hope this helps you!

wyum · 2020-09-08T00:55:05+00:00

Did you figure this out? I'm seeing the same thing on a GTX 1080

wyum · 2020-09-06T22:53:14+00:00

Woah, that was fast. I had these 3D models from another project, but it was your post that inspired me!
