The Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 community has been going nuts over the latest Maverick release in the sim. In this, you can fly the Darkstar and take it up to around 250,000' AGL and hit Mach 10. The whole trailer is worth watching

It's interesting to see the 30% pop up again in this context. That is roughly the percent who are Trump supporters in the US and there are similar fears that with various voting impediments and fraud that is enough to win. Are there ot

I've got plenty of hours in MSFS in VR, most of it in GA aircraft in the Bay Area where I live. When I went on my discovery flight I felt immediately comfortable in the DA40 and with it's g1000. I knew where everything was in the

Friend, you need a carbon steel pan. Fraction of the weight of cast iron, just as indestructible, no health risks like Teflon. Check out the Misen ones, their marketing video is literally all about an egg slipping around it like water. You

Part of the challenge with these random days off is everyone rushing to get five days of work done in four (usually because of poor or insufficient planning). I always feel more stressed those weeks.

Can I work with 2.7k 60fps HEVC videos from my GoPro in it yet? Or is that still busted? I jumped through endless hoops getting DaVinci Resolve's free version setup because I didn't want to degrade my video quality.
