Just over 4 hours from now Cassini will disintegrate in Saturn's atmosphere. Titan one last time (9/12) And a goodbye to Encaladus, as it set over Saturn's limb. 2 mosaics of images taken by Cassini prior to it's final dive into Saturn. :(

A friend's shipped.

Kinda thought they might be neat. Came away feeling like I was doing something wrong. Did a normal and a greater and in both of them it didn't put my in a group/raid and I died a bunch of times. So, if that's normal, pretty lame.

We had to play stream roulette w/ the McGregor fight, and then when the main event started I was better off going to reddit and getting a stream from there. NFL2Go has been great for us. Only hiccup was when I logged in on both phones showing it to my wife, not realizing neither were on wifi...

It's mostly smear/noise and dirty uncalibrated optics, but this is the closest (1641km) image we'll get of Saturn until we send an atmospheric probe there one day. Cassini's final image uplink will be done on the 14th before it's reconfigured to send telemetry live as it's collected on it's...

Yeah. They need to tweak things a bit. 3 nights would be a lot more exciting if it was on par with night's 10-14. That was a ton of fun. 1-8 or so was a bit of a slog. I think they need to incent/allow you to build more generators earlier. Requiring more resources to protect and increasing the...

Goldstone's view of Florence, pretty neat to see the eclipse of the smaller moon.

Finished a 14-night survival tonight. Was fun, not sure if/when we'll do it again. What we'd really like is to have a 3 night mode that starts at our aggregate level and then gives us progressively harder waves. Biggest challenges were when we had to defend opposite sides, and most fun was...

Anyone been on a VR coaster? Apparently the coaster at the NY NY here in Vegas is getting the VR treatment. Example:

The launch content from the first game is finally coming to Xbox One this fall, more than 3 years after release. I'm not getting my hopes up on seeing D2 exclusives anytime soon.

Strikes on harder difficulty levels and raids is where it's at for PVE. I played up until raids were released in the first one. If you only play PVE it's where the shitty Sony exclusive hurts, because 1 strike ends up being a pretty large % of the PVE content.

Why? It's already $100 cheaper. At most I'd see them knocking $50 off and including games. I think they hold firm with 'look at our games, and look at the graphics on Horizon' and make MS prove why you should spend $100+. Then again with Gamepass and EA Access that's not that hard of an...

We did a 3-day, and I crashed before the first night phase started but was able to get back in thankfully. Really like this mode, it needs to not be temporary, or make the 7-14 hour ones the temp ones with extra rewards.

Feel like they're going to be pushing PSVR really hard this holiday. Not expecting much movement in the Pro's price and the One S / PS4 Slim already get really cheap.

Whaaaat. Hey Cortana, open Alexa: Microsoft and Amazon’s first-of-its-kind collaboration - The Official Microsoft Blog Available later this year, this collaboration will allow you to access Alexa via Cortana on Windows 10 PCs, followed by Android and iOS in the future. Conversely, you’ll be...

They have 14 days...

Or at the very least a pre-order bonus. 'Order today and get the first to play now!'

In case anyone wants a taste of 1440p/60 (was playing at 100) ultra wide. Here's me fumbling through the intro w/ a Warlock.

Strike was fun, not touching PVP.

Should be some Windows Mixed Reality news this week out of Berlin. Windows Mixed Reality holiday update - Windows Experience Blog In addition, I am thrilled to announce that Steam content will also run on Windows Mixed Reality headsets. Virtual reality enthusiasts know that Steam is a great...

100, since we'd be at the center of the sphere of radio waves spanning 200.

This is Saturn's rings, looking out from Saturn as Cassini moves between the planet and the rings. Only 2 orbits left.

Set up slickdeals alerts for the bulbs, that's how I've gotten most of mine.

Yup, regular edition preorder details next month.

Nothing should be sharing an IP, they should all have their own unique, with the gateway being your original router that's providing the internet. Give all your infrastructure points their own IP, adjust the range if necessary so they never get handed out to another device and then let DHCP on...

I stopped at page 1 of the 2nd area because that's where my friends are at. Don't want to get too far ahead. Need to get in that routine of setting up the missions, collecting daily rewards, etc. Was hoping this would scratch the itch that Rocket League does, but missions take a bit longer...

You can keep it for $40! Ok not really. Yet.

If you ever run out of stuff (lol), can always tack on Gamepass or EA Access for a month too.

I'd think they could use a lot of that stuff w/ the bird in this game. Unrelated, GT Sport themed PS4/Pro announced for United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia.

I'd think Chromecasts would be the way to go, you'd just click an icon and then select the name of what you're casting to. Not sure I've ever cast a desktop before, it's usually browser tabs and media applications. Casting a Chrome tab or entire desktop - Chromecast Help Not sure interference...

Ubisoft confirms Assassins's Creed will be 4k w/ HDR on the One X, and also use Dolby Atmos. Really looking forward to more games using positional audio.

I have friends in Buffalo I haven't visited since they moved there (so what's 7 more years?), though a trip to Newfoundland to see eclipse and then aurora would be quite a bucket list event. lol:
