That was a meandering book, took me ages to muster the effort to listen to it

Clan politics were boring, and Lindon and yeren were pretty aimless for most of it

I was confused about the ruins everyone was at, they talked about it as if it was ancient but it only appeared a few weeks ago but it already had legends about it?

At least towards the end it got interesting again with the underlord guy, he seems fun, but i imagine his power and mystery will be made mundane by the next book, seems to be the pattern

I'm still confused why the sacred valley is so weak when Lindon was able to get from copper to iron so quickly

My one complaint is just how quickly things go, fights, plans, its all over in a few scenes, it doesn't give time to really build tension

Like the scale heist , Lindon shows up with all the details and plans, and it takes no time to convince yeren, and it's unwound almost immediately on the same page it began

I'm all for fast paced books, but you need to actually elaborate on things more than one paragraph

I'm FAR more interested in the personal arcs of yeren and Lindon than any kind of clan politics, I just wish there was more time actually spent on SHOWING those arcs

I'll give black flame a try, but considering we need yeren to get past iron and jade to gold in a year, I'm guessing the pace just keeps speeding up

Every time you go to another universe, that universe's you swaps places with you, they get your life, you get theirs. You'll also gain basic knowledge about the version of yourself you've swapped with so you can slip into their life seamlessly

However you can't control what universe you swap with, it's completely random and because of that, the odds you'll ever return to your original universe is functionally 0

Do you take that gamble?

I'll be buying a new mount plus asiair guiding and I want to be sure I'll have no problems getting images as soon as everything arrives, id rather not get out only to find I need to order a special cable

The gear I'm getting

Asiair plus

Asi 120mm mini

Iexos-100-2

Svbony sv192

Librids c600 LiFePO4

And my camera is a canon rebel t7

I'm not entirely sure what's included with each and what ill need to order separately.

So we have the 5axis machine training, which is good, but both me and the other machinist barely know what we are doing for fusion

Any good tutorial series on YouTube?

You will have no negative consequences to not performing anything you choose

You can still do it if you choose, but it is not a necessity anymore

So I had the idea I could get a Sii filter to attach to the s30pro so I could attempt a SHO palette

​

My thinking is I could do pixel math on images with the built in Ha+Oiii dual narrowband LP filter to isolate the ha and Oiii signals into their own mono image

​

I think if I combine the green and blue channel, I might be able to get something approximating a mono Oiii signal

​

Then it's a matter of getting more data with a Sii filter and maybe some unfiltered image data converted into mono for a luminance channel

​

From there it's just a matter of placing the mono images into a color palette

​

Sane idea? not worth the effort? Worth an experiment?

My computer is already pretty good for gaming, i7-8700k, 32gb ddr4, rtx 3080, and yet, stacking is taking multiple hours, anything I can do to speed things up? Different settings, optimizations etc?

​

If it matters, my astrophotos are on my hdd since I don't have a lot of room on my ssds, but would moving those files to a ssd temporarily make a significant difference?

Unfortunately factors outside my control means I won't be able to go, i enjoyed going as a kid

​

I don't think it's happened for a number of years, since 2018 according to Google so I'm just wondering if I'll have another chance next year or if I'll be waiting much longer than that

I'm interested in continuing the series, I think the system is interesting enough, but what really caught me is the cosmology hinted

​

It really feels scifi in the way infinity blade is, that this fantasy world's gods are just individuals with super advanced tech, personally I enjoy the hell out of that concept

​

I do think the fantasy elements are great, I just had a hard time getting invested in the sacred valley, especially after Lindon's resurrection and going to that school on the mountain

​

I did find it funny that the sacred valley is basically the tutorial village of a rpg, and the highest level there is like level 5, where the rest of the world is level 20 on average, and Lindon needs to get to lvl 99 and the gods are lvl 999

​

I'm going in basically blind, all I know is the series gets crazy, so I hope I'm in for a fun ride

Going from rank 8 as I go to bed, and waking up to being rank 50 and needing over 3k points to even get back in the top 25 sucks
