    Yeah but if it goes North up to the gulf, expect strength to intensify even more. Gulf is warm as fuck compared to Atlantic.

    This was the moon setting in a field. 3 shots HDR, We had to wait for the moon to set at 3:15 AM so the damned milky way would show up. It was like 37F out too. And then the miky way showed up, but the core was like 25 deg below horizon, and the moon still lit up the horizon with a light glow...

    So this weekend I tried the bokeh panorama thing, otherwise known as Brenizer method. Just experimenting with it with my kid. This was taken with a medium format 120mm f2.8 Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar. Its actually more like a 85mm f1.5 on a full frame 35mm camera. This shot was about 45 pictures...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    They did and will most assuredly do so in D2. It was all about the skill based match making, pretty robust system too that everyone bitched and complained about. The only way to thwart this system was to create a new character and go destroy noobs for a few levels until once again they system...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Yeah I was hoping this too. I was hoping that letting go of old consoles they would add some 8v8 or 12v12. Instead they went backwards and made all PvP sweaty as fuck. There is still hope that enough people bitch, at least they will add back 6v6 modes. They did have vehicle maps in d1, but...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    The last couple of expansions added daily missions which would unlock a bigger side mission with exotic rewards. Some were puzzle types like the one to unlock sleeper stimulant or another which was tough as shit to open up a sniper, best in game for raids, black spindle, where you had to clear...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    This was why PvP was more an arcade type of experience. the balance was all out of whack for most of the time in D1, but I still found if fun as hell and I did really well with it even with a shit class (titan) which dint get any love until the hammers for a few months until that eventually got...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    That has always been the case in Destiny. I remember the same shit being discussed in D1 with the same slow down frame by frame shit you saw in video. IMO this does not make the game bad, it makes it more of an "arcade" shooter rather than some tryhard CS competitive shit.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Yeah we have a few 125s at my cabin that we tool around with. Also a few souped up mini bikes that do 50mph+, but this is up state MI, no traffic in the woods. Still dangerous as shit, but at least you only have to worry about your own stupidity. We also have full gear from shoulder and chest...

    Another buddy of mine at work lost his son, 19 yrs old on a motorcycle. Fucker was going of to college and just sold it to another friend, was taking it for a last spin in his subdivision. Again, hit a car coming out of driveway or a parked car or some shit. another anecdote, an engineer I...

    The Fermi Paradox -- Where is everybody?

    Man is considered to be a toolmaker though. From the first rock we tied to end of a stick, to the modern shit we have now like jets, rockets, cellphones are nothing but tools. So are we just to assume other intelligent life must have this intrinsic drive to build tools like we do? It's pretty...

    Meh, gene manipulation can solve all of this. We could theoretically make a space fairing human. And even on a generational ship like cad proposed, whose to say that humans themselves would not quickly evolve.

    Yeah, time and distance. And were only one big asteroid or comet away from annihilating our little minuscule time frame of ~100K years of existence.

    I made one fucking claim. We were on vacation, we came back and our kit hen floors were fucked because of a water leak under the sink. They paid out 4 grand, had a company come out with drying equipment for a week. Then they canceled us.
