    Not sure if it was an anomaly or intentional, but it was certainly the Starlink they were expecting to see. Just in more pieces than they expected. https://in-the-sky.org/spacecraft.php?id=45537

    A Starlink sat was expected to cross into their FOV, this wasn't the view of it they expected to see.

    Yeah, I took a cloth and applied pressure to it and you can see it kinda clear up and match the surrounding pixels w/ the resulting distortion while the pressure remains applied. If you move that pressure up/down the side of the panel you can make out some inconsistency around the edges of it...

    Following up. Tech came out to take a look and left after maybe 5 minutes, said I needed a new panel and the office would be in touch. Got a text a few days later saying there was no ETA and they'd let us know when they can reschedule the appointment. Today Samsung called and said they just...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Episode 1 out. A nice start. I already want a Titan series, wonder if this could serve as a backdoor pilot for one, but guessing not.

    What are you playing?

    It's strange how I can put hundreds of hours into deck building games and then I randomly come across a really good one that's been out since 2019 that I've never seen before. Enjoying Mystic Vale.

    Wild Hearts - EA Monster Hunter Clone

    Yeah, that's normal w/ EA Play Pro (the PC sub, dont get it w/ Game Pass). I usually use Madden to justify that annual sub, but that's been a stretch for a year or two. Dead Space and this game though, probably made it worth it.

    When we were putting it up that section is covered by a solid plastic barrier that you peel off (in addition to the normal plastic over the screen), I couldn't have put a thumprint on it if I tried, and we were super careful putting it up to not put any pressure on the screen.

    Got the QN90B setup. Got this damn artifact in the upper corner 100% of the time, across multiple inputs, etc. Ugh. Samsung support will be in touch in the next day or two to come diagnose/fix.

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Yeah, think Kelce's comments were borne from expectations they'd lose to the Bengals (for a 4th time in about a calendar year) and how the discussion all week about how good the Eagles are and anything about the Chiefs was just about Mahomes' ankle. A number of pundits didn't even have the...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    If I'm reading this right, it only increased the Chiefs chances of winning 6%, from 74% to 80%, which then increased to 90% when the Eagles took their timeout a play later. https://rbsdm.com/stats/box_scores/?_inputs_&year=%222022%22&team=%22ALL%22&gameID=%222022_22_KC_PHI%22 Since the bottom...

    33 engine static fire imminent. Edit: The static fire - 31 engines, as one the team shut down before the test, and one shut down on it's own, but Musk said it was enough to get to orbit. Good test.

    For the most part don't think that concept was very well received, we'll see if they produce any more or if it's a one-off.

    No I love it, my old headset you had to turn it back on and i'd always stop holding it a second to early, in the middle of a fight in wow or something, lol. Like this one a lot right now, a little snug but it's good. No optical out like my prior steelseries to my speakers, but has the same...

    One of the biggest reasons I want to upgrade to the Nova Wireless Pro is the damn strap on the Arctis Pro Wireless. Once you have to adjust it it seems like it's never right again. The top isn't really velcro or something and ends up uneven on your head / moving around as the thing loses...

    And by cruising I meant 'I haven't faced a boss yet and now my ass kicked' Was kicked for AFK then wasn't able to start another dive once I reconnected. Others were in one, so if that happens to you may need to restart the client.

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Look forward to seeing how they pull it off. I'm not really a fan of (or even familiar with) many of these properties, but I also was more of an X-Men fan than an Avengers fan and the MCU sold me. Make good movies, first and foremost. The connective tissue is a bonus. At this rate any big...

    I wonder if they're making some pivots w/ software already too. Like so many I'll just never buy into a solution like this, especially when they've already gone a non-backward compatible path once already with their approach.

    Thoughts on the PPI after some time using it? Seen a couple reviews now that recommend the 42/48" higher resolution screens rather than the 45" UWs. I've got the 48 but wouldn't use that for a primary. I'll probably wait until I can see one at Best Buy before considering pulling the trigger...

    It's EA, so if you have Game Pass you should have a 10 hour trial of Dead Space if you do want to try it unless they've truncated it or made any exceptions with it.
