Here's the original trailer to give you an idea:

Well worth watching... I won't say more except that I'm going to start reading the book as soon as I finish my current read.

"The Russians are coming, The Russians are coming"

If only they could update the external graphics. I'd forgotten how low poly everything was. I just can't go back...

It seems that the start time is: What time are new episodes of “Masters of the Air” out on Apple TV+? New episodes arrive at midnight PT on Fridays. Is that correct? Midnight Pacific tonight? Anyone know? EDIT: Never mind... Episode 1 — Friday, January 26 (streaming now) Episode 2 — Friday, January 26 (streaming now)

B650 Aourus Elite AX

I've read all of his WWII books. Well researched and reads more like a novel than straight history. Putting it on my list. Edit: He does have his opinions which could be perceived as bias (but I happen to agree with him so it's not an issue ).

Maybe sorta a similar vein... hot blond, hot song, done well.

Regarding TPM, in "Device Security" mine is Spec version 2.0: If you see an option for Security processor details under Security processor, select that and verify that your Specification version is 2.0. If it is less than 2.0, your device does not meet the Windows 11 requirements. I don't think that is the issue. I think it's a BIOS firmware issue. I'm just a bit leery of flashing the BIOS.

You lost me there. Hope to talk to you on Discord for clarification. It doesn't seem to be having any negative (or positive) issues currently. Should I talk to Gigabyte (my Mobo mfg) about it?

Love it! Would be great background music for a DCS video.

OK Captain... good to go.

I just noticed this and I'm not sure how long it's been going on. PC seems to be running fine. Google search found that updating / flashing the BIOS might fix it. Others said they had to do a fresh Windows 11 install. Anyone have ideas?

Starts in one week. I have high hopes... Please don't screw it up Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks, and Gary Goetzman!

"Computer Lab at college" (sorry, couldn't resist the easy set-up)

This looks pretty amazing:

Here's the roadmap: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/newsletters/3835d6a01ff60597c1a3c993ff9c606a/ The Chinook featured prominently in the video and I'm certainly looking forward to it (as well as most of the other upcoming modules). I saw Zeros... probably initially as AI but... also a Hellcat: The Hellcat will not exist in a vacuum though, and Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO) opponent aircraft are already in development, as well PTO specific ground and naval forces.

RIP Les McCann... This was defiantly on our party list in the late 60s. We did a cover in high school jazz band as I recall.

Interesting! I didn't know that.

This is on a Virpil CM3 Throttle but the idea should work on any Mini-stick. Having messed around with sensitivity / curves in both the VPC Config software and DCS controls I just couldn't get a good sweetspot. Then I thought about how much a stick extension on my joystick improved the overall feel and thought, "why not an extension for the Mini-stick as well?" I didn't want to damage the existing stick and tried several contraptions using flat head screws, dowels, etc. attached with electrical tape or double stick tape, all of which were not secure enough. I found this cap on a tube of antiseptic cream and remembered that I had some large heat-shrink tubing and came up with this idea. It works great! I'm able to slew precisely to a target at full zoom but still can move the cursor quickly at wide FOV. Maybe someone can come up with a plastic printable version that either snaps on or screws on over the OD of the button.

A new one from my favorite channel, Playing for Change. Soulshine, written by Allman Brothers Band guitarist Warren Haynes is best known as a recording that The Allman Brothers Band released on their 1994 album, Where It All Begins, featuring Gregg Allman on vocals. The song's title originates from Haynes's nickname, given by his father.

Got pop-in visitors...

I'm glad that I was able to experience it at least... back in the 90s. https://airrace.org/news/2023-to-mark-final-year-for-national-championship-air-races-at-reno-stead-airport/

I'll be checking Discord tonight around regular practice time. Open for any flavor... WWI, II or Cold War
